I played a lot of games this past week, and its actually hard to figure out a way to write out my experiences without ranting, but ill give it my best shot. So as almost anyone with a computer knows Halo ODST came out last week, and even though i dont currently own a 360, i still waited in line and bought it at the midnight launch. I played it on my brothers 360, and have to say i was extremley disappointed in the campaign, it was a pain to get through due to boredom. But firefight mode more than made up for it, and i enjoyed that a lot and had a friend bring over his 360 and played 4 player co-op. The Mythic maps i found a lot of fun online or off, but the exclusives 3 mapswere lacking and didnt seem ripe for Team Slayer, but since i never bought any maps for Halo 3, ODST was a steal for 60 dollars. Still i didnt like Campaign co-op or solo, so it was a little disappointing since i enjoyed Halo 3's so much.

Another game i played was MAG, i got a beta key from Qore, that game is simply amazing. I wasnt really interested in the game, and actually didnt download the beta till a week after i got the key, but now i regret that. Anyone who doubts MAG because of its graphics arent flashy enoughor because its bound to have lag, let me set you straight. There is NO lag, none, i played 15 matches, my friend played 10, and i experienced no lag, not once. It felt like i was playing single player, not online. What Zipper has done here is make the best online shooter, and made it lag free, and extremley deep. Yes i said best, better than Halo and more fun than Counter Strike. While i loved Killzone 2, I wouldnt call it the "Halo killer", MAG though is the Halo Killer. The game is epic on so many levels, its just jaw dropping, and the graphics are awesome for 256 players online and running at a smooth 30 fps is even more impressive. But looking past the epic battles, the fun gameplay, or the laag free online, the best part is the sound. Never before has a shooting game sounded so good. Basically MAG is an amazing game, and its only the beta!!! So if Killzone 2, Uncharted 1&2, Motorstorm, LittleBig Planet, or Infamous didnt want to make you wanna get a PS3, try MAG, you'll pick it up.

Another game i tried this week, isnt in the same category as MAG or Halo, is Left 4 Dead's new DLC Crash Course. The reason why it isnt is cause its plain awful, I love L4D but this DLC is 2 chapters long, yes its been 10 months and the only new DLC they added was 2 chapters. And 2 bad, boring chapters, i own this game on PC so i didnt pay for it like the unfortunate XBL players, but i still had to wait to dowwnload it. I want my 10 minutes back and the 29 minutes i spent beating the DLC.

This isnt the best blog i wrote but im distracted by the baseball game going on, so my b
