Game Sequels that need to come out this generation. Part 1
ZeeJayTL | 7:17 PM on 06.30.2009 3 comments


It was before E3. I was reading the Dtoids and what-nots and was thinking about what games I want to see at E3. There's nothing more I like more than original IPs and all that Jazz, but the sequels and remakes and shit that is known is what sells. So I made a mental list of sequels that need to come out soon.


Rainbow Six.
BEfore Modern Warfare was a gernadefest, Rainbow six online had the crown. I didn't play Vegas online much, but I played 3 online alot, and it was GREAT. Competetive and fun. It was seemingly made for professional gamers. When Vegas came out, it did plenty good on its own. But then Vegas 2 came out. and didnt do much. At all. I mean, I paid the $60 for it. But I didnt care to beat it yet. And so far, nothings been announced. :-(

What it needs:

1. To be different than Vegas. After 2 (or 1.5, depending how you look at it) games in Vegas, the next game could use a change in location. Instead of the casinos of Vegas, Why not office buildings in NY? Chicago? Miami beaches? LA? I like LA. Needs to have the Staples Center. If its in a big city, there should be at least one Monument. YEah, that'd be cool.

2. Make a more emphasis on teamwork. Which will lead into Co-Op as a given. It needs to be 4 players, Crackdown style. But the only way for this to work right is if you dont play as a leader, but part of a team. You dont command, you brainstorm with your team to find the best way to complete the objectives. *shrug*

3. Environment. A game like this NEEDS envirnment. Can't find a door? Make one. The whole fucking team had pounds of C4, but couldnt get past a locked door. Too many enemies? Cut the power, disorient them, and take them out. Im talking elevator shafts. Vent shafts. Real Die Hard shit. Die Hard 2 shit. Maybe even Die hard with a Vengance shit.


Well guys thats all I can think of right now. I have other games in my mind right now, but I fear this will become Longblog if It was 5x as long. Or maybe I'll quit because no one likes it. I dont know...comment away.

Till then see you next time...with Black.

Oh Noez, I joined the Dark side!
ZeeJayTL | 11:48 AM on 10.11.2008 5 comments


That's right! Dtoid Unknown member ZeejayTL went from Blockbuster to Gamestop! Blockbuster has been pissing me off lately (by lately, I mean for a year or so), so i decided to job hunting. One day I get my hair cut, I run into the District manager for Gamestop. We talk, I'm interested, he's interested..etc. So I apply, talk to a bunch of peeps, and start in a couple weeks. It's the same position I had at Blockbuster, but with more moneys. I weighed my options, and yeah...Gamestop is where Id rather be. With Blockbuster, I got free rentals (which i never used really..plus their game rental policy sucks)...but thats the only perk really. well that and getting Frito-Lay stuff 20% off.80 cents? YEs please

But I grew up, and know jobs aren't about perks, and more money helps. So I guess you can say I sold out. BUT I get more moneys!

Besides, I got everything I need from BB until December...

Comic-con 2009 4-day passes..I has one. Also TF2
ZeeJayTL | 10:22 AM on 08.25.2008 7 comments


So I guess the passes for Comic-con went on sale 11 months before the event. I said fuck it, I have almost a year to save up for flight/lodging (living in New England..flight would be max $300 and lodging would suck, but thats why I got the passes now..to save). Just wanted to give some people a heads up http://www.comic-con.org/cci/cci_reg.php. Maybe I can become kinda-known in that time and share some lodg'ems with a dtoider (as most of my friends have something better to do in that time frame)

Also, I bought the Orange box when it came out, and never played Team Fortress 2. I hear alot of people talking about it. My only fear of playing it now is me being manslaughtered by people who have been playing it for months and months. Is my fear real?

 about me

Usually, I'm a big movie nut. Gaming is more of a hobby, but I've been a gamer my entire life, with the NES days. However, I grew up into games more in the PSX/N64 days, and remember them more. I was always Sonic > Mario.

I work for Satan (Gamestop) and do his bidding. I enjoy it *Shrug*

Currently Im playing through Fallout 3 again, waiting on Splinter Cell.
