If you read my first/last blog, you know that I was just doing it to waste time to play special Halloween edition Halo ranked Infection etc. The attention quickly diverted to my Over the Hedge poster. Regardless, I'm blogging about Infection, not my choice of animated cartoon animals. So I waste some time browsing the internets, and 3:00 hits. I load up my Halos, and take the gimmick for a spin.

It made me realize a few things. Ranked Infection is retarded. The way the scoring was set up, the weapons (Laser? wtf?) etc. etc. I just didnt like it. The problem with ranked games is that is where everyone is going at it and giving it their all...not much fun too it, but it can be a blast. Infection is just fun to play. Mixing the two is like keeping score at recess playing kickball or something. People were taking it too seriously. That is justified because it was indeed ranked. Also, none of my buddies were online, and playing it with strangers was also weird. My friends and I would hole up in some room and keep our backs to the wall and never go from there. In this version, you wanted everyone to lose, so I was giving some cheapshots here and there, messing up people's grav lifts, etc. It was cheap and stupid, but I wanted to win damnit. Every man for himself is not how to play infection, damnit! I ended up getting tired after about an hour and gave up. I might go back to it later before it's gone, but it wouldnt bother me if I dont. Besides, I need to 5 star some songs in Guitar Hero 3.

Anyway, so how was Halloween for you guys? I ended up working most of the day, and later during night, went to see Nightmare before Christmas in 3-D. I almost fell asleep. I wanted to see Night of the Living Dead in a theater like an hour drive away, but teh girlfriend did not. It being at like 10 and me being tired sucked as well. so I sat home and watched Shrek the Third..*shrug*

And now...a picture of TEH HAIRZ!!!
