OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAND
sirjester | 9:28 PM on 07.03.2008 0 comments



So in this contest...I may have gotten carried away; but if The-Excel has proven anything, excess will get you everywhere. This basically just started out as picking one picture, but ending up loving them all, and having more and more ideas. So now I find myself trying to put these in some sort of..."order." Some are cliche', some are retarded, some I put a lot of thought into and love(Stephen Hawking). Yes these are all mine, and yes I am mentally impaired. I used the superman pics at first because of the similarities between the superman mythology and DBZ....enjoy

Uwe Boll is THE ONLY Genius

I realize this doesnt have a direct link to videogames and someone may have posted a similar article already but, my god...someone needs to shoot this guy.
Seriously.

This Schwarzenegger wannabe is a travestry to the videogaming community
he has created videogame adaptations that literally make you want to rip your eyes out:

1. House of The Dead (clips of the actual game in the movie)
2. Alone in the Dark (.....changed story)
3. BloodRayne (does anyone care?)
4. In the Name of the King: A DUNGEON SEIGE Tale
(Seriously....Dungeon Seige? Does anyone remember the D&D movie???)
5. Postal (see trailer below...)
6. BloodRayne II (the rest are in production, but are obviously bad)
7. Far Cry (again, watch the trailer)
8. Alone in the Dark II
9. BLOODEFFINGRAYNE III????

and other just teribble movies in general.

Recently someone started an online "Stop Uwe Boll" petition. He has publicly stated that he will leave the business forever if it reaches One Million signatures.
Now he’s being a cocky mother and asking someone to start a "Pro-Boll" petition and slanderizing Eli Roth and Michael Bay......W...T....F....?

So anyways, I’m just asking people to sign this petition, whether or not you now what the hell it is I’m rambling about. Please just do it, this man could very well become the next Hitler. Just watch the video and you should automatically develop a personal hatred for this man. You’ll find the link after the videos:....and here, bahaha

poor poor FarCry....


Stop Dr. Uwe Boll

Not my Turning Point gaming rig

This is my sad implosion of a compter. I'm just glad it held out long enough to play the Orange Box.... My computer had been a loyal companion of mine that I had built about two years ago for under 800$. Until about six months ago that is, when I deciced to try and upgrade it with a SATA drive. This was the first upgrade since I had finished building it and I had no experience with SATA. Yes, I only plugged in one power cable and data cable, I did do my research. But somehow I could never get it to work, and then when I tried to go back to the old hard drive, the pins in the back had broken....awesome right? So I take it to my IT guy at work, and he finally gets the sata to work in time for the Orange Box....but shortly after it fried again....I don't remember why because I just stopped caring. So here I am begging for a new setup.
here's what was in it originally:

Random no-longer-made ASUS motherboard
2.1 gig AMD CPU
160 Hitatchi HD
1 gb Ram
NVidia N-Force for graphics
and the new hd was a... wow...i dont remember but it was like 250 gb and devil SATA(N)

Losties offering free goodies for downloading....free goodies
sirjester | 1:22 PM on 02.05.2008 3 comments




Get your bums over to your Xbox 360 dashboards and look for all the new ads for the tv show LOST. If you manage to find the free "Oceanic Airlines" theme pack, download it. Then you're automatically entered in the contest. Just a heads up for all the kids who didn't know. 1st prize includes an XBOX 360 to replace the one that will inevitably go RRoD or to hock on ebay...because, if you entered, you obviously already own one.

How the Marcus Fenix stole Halloween
sirjester | 1:27 PM on 10.31.2007 10 comments




This is pretty old, (first broke in late June) but in honor of the non-holiday holiday, I just felt like brining this up. There is a sweet prop studio called Nightmare Armor Studios and apparently these guys are quite the geeks.

They went and built custom Delta Squad armor AND rifles, complete with the chainsaw bayonettes. Then they took the liberty of trick or treating at Cliffy B's doorstep. Photos ensued and the fools announced they would never produce the cash-cow costumes for sale....FOOLS.

These guys have even made some pretty sweet Halo armor. Those bastards play paintball in them too. It was featured on G4's Halo3 release show, check it out on their site.

Halo 3 pwned my Achievements...in a very confusing way
sirjester | 8:39 PM on 10.30.2007 7 comments




2 Weeks ago...

So after 2 wonderful, rage-filled days of Halo 3 both online and off, my achivements stop awarding themselves unto me. I know I deserve them, cause I went to all the trouble to get those bloody skulls, and when I finally get one, I see no pop-up that lets me know I'm one step closer to the Katana.

Soon after noticing this, my system starts to lock up in moments of high-processing necessity. After that, I get the RRoD.

So I send the system in, and swap my HD into a friends XB360. I try to get the easiest skull in the game that I have yet to get, aaaand still no achievement. So then I try it under a different account, and I get the same result.

Regardless, I continued to play Halo 3 online and achieved Officer status. Again I got no Achievement pop-up, BUT when I checked my achievements, I had been awarded the Officer achievement.

Present Day...

Haven't had much of a chance to try it, but I think my Halo 3 saved game is corrupted or something, because the other night I played Worms on my profile and got an achievement.

I just wanna know if any of you other D-toidians are having or have had similar problems.
