Quarantine Teaser Trailer - NVGR
Namelessted | 3:21 PM on 04.10.2008 14 comments




I just heard about this movie ten minutes ago and instantly became excited. I am a big fan of horror movies but recently a lot of shit has been coming out like The Hills Have Eyes 2 and boat loads of other crap. The Orphanage was a really good movie out of Spain that wasn't really as much of a horror movie as it was extremely creepy.

I sent the trailer to a couple peeps in stickam and they didn't seem too excited about it but I don't care. The movie has Jennifer Carpenter in it, the chick from Dexter (awesome show). I don't have much else to say other than I hope this movie is as good as the trailer makes it seem. I am getting a hold of REC right now, the Spanish movie which this movie is based on.

First Congressional Hearing about Virtual World: A Daily Show Must See
Namelessted | 8:19 PM on 04.08.2008 19 comments




The Daily Show with John Stuart had an excellent little piece on Monday, April 7th. It was the moment of zen at the end of the video that made me need to share this with you all; Ms. Harman of California has no fucking clue what the shit she is talking about. Seriously, its a funny little piece making fun of congress and Second Life all in one. I hope you enjoy.

Not My Turning Point Gaming Rig
Namelessted | 11:14 AM on 04.04.2008 11 comments




Yeah, I finally am posting my entry after bitching about others. There you have it. I have a laptop that is good for everything but gaming. Right next to my newish laptop I have an old as fuck desktop that can't do anything but play music and sometime use the internet. It is an Intel Centrino R 2.0GHz and only has 128MB of RAM, its a complete joke.

If I would actually win the Turning Point Gaming Rig that would be totally sweet. I could finally get rid of my laptop. Its great being able to use the internet, torrent, and watch 720p video flawlessly, but it really sucks dick to get 12 frames per second when attempting to play World in Conflict.

13 Reasons Why GamesRadar is Retarded.
Namelessted | 11:59 PM on 03.28.2008 30 comments


Ok, I am getting sick of GamesRadar. I mean, they have some good stuff from time to time, but they always get these stupid "Top (instert radnom number here)" lists and they all completely suck dick. And I have finally had it with their new "13 Worst Gaming Innovations of all Time" article by Shane Patterson. It really is one of the dumbest pieces of "gaming journalism" I have read in my entire life.

Alright, I am going to put this little blurb here. When I first started writing this blog I was thinking on posting my counter argument to each one of the "innovations" that Games Radar believes is bad. But, then I decided that half of them weren't even innovations as much as they are a feature. Also, this would have been a quite lengthy post so I decided that I should shorten it a bit. So now I have chosen just a couple of these so called terrible innovations that I most disagree with and write about them.



PERIPHERALS

Oh yes, peripherals are one of the worst innovations ever. You have to be kidding me. Do the people at GamesRadar have no fucking clue what they are talking about? They say that having gaming peripherals makes you look not cool. I have a message for you GamesRadar:

FUCK YOU.

If your biggest concern is to look cool while playing games, they you need to go to hell. I am dead serious here, go straight to fucking hell. Some of the best video game experiences are only possible with the use of peripherals; Guitar Hero and Rock Band come to mind. Seriously think about it, where would gaming be without the Power Glove or the Power Pad? How would you be able to play Duck Hunt without the Zapper. And just to add, I have not met a single person that think Guitar Hero is gay after being made to play it except for Ron Workman.



LENSE FLARE

Lense flare? Are you kidding me? You are seriously going to complain about lens flares being a terrible innovation? Shut the fuck up.



QUICK TIME EVENTS

Quick Time Events are fucking awesome. Patterson cites games such as Heavenly Sword and Spiderman 3 as to why QTEs suck. That is just unfair. Citing two bad games as two why a certain feature sucks is like saying 3rd person shooters suck because Kane & Lynch and Army of Two both suck. Why doesn't he mention a god like God of War? He uses GoW for his image, that game is a great example of QTEs done right. I don't know about you, but it is quite satisfying to jump up on a cyclops and stab it in the eyeball to death when I do the button chain correctly.

I just think it is unfair to say a certain game play mechanic or feature is bad just because a game that sucks has it, it is just stupid and completely flawed logic.



3D GAMES

Ok, this is the big one. This might be the dumbest fucking thing I have ever heard. It really takes the cake. How the fuck can somebody seriously say that 3D games were a bad innovation? I'm really not sure where to start or what to say exactly. Do I really need to say anything? Honestly, I could write a 12 page paper on how the jump to 3D has propelled video games into a completely new form of entertainment beyond anything that we could have imagined when the only thing we had was the Atari 2600.

What do you guys think. Am I crazy? Is this whole article a joke that I just didn't get? Please tell me that I'm not crazy.

*note*
I know I didn't list 13 reasons in this article. I don't care.

Fuck suff0catingsight
Namelessted | 1:26 AM on 03.28.2008 20 comments


That's right. He kicked me from fucking stickam like the fucking dick face he is. Who does he think he is? He kicked me from the YAY! M&M'S! room. That room was created because of me in the first place. Had I not had my giant bag of peanut m&ms, we would never had it. blah blah blah.

all I wanted to do was talk in stickam, and now I am fucking stuck in vent with the puppet faggot (everybody fucking hates him, he is such an asshole).
