I decided to change the site up a little. I got tired of the vertical scrolling. I decided instead to add a menu to the right-hand side, as well as my contact information. Also, you are correct, the search function on the right is just there for show. It’s not working. So, for the next few days the site might be a little wonky. Yes, I’m talking to all three of you.

I figured out how to add a ‘favorites’ icon for the site. I hope it’s not considered stealing, but this is a custom icon I made in Halo 2. I like the icon a lot because of the symmetry, the falcon/eagle/aves, and it’s a design that I never saw when playing Halo 2. Now, the bird was used a lot, but not the diamond shape behind it.
There’s a good read on 1up.com. Yeah, I know that sounds silly, but it’s a good read because it’s from Evil Avatar’s Kefkataran. He’s a good guy. We have gotten into it over the moon landing(I’m the minority), but we represent a sort of gamesmanship over the world wide web that would identify the hardcore gamers. He also runs the Evil Avatar Radio Show. But back to the point.
The article on 1up.com discusses a poor individual who has had eleven 360’s replaced for him - because they broke. Now, we all know those failure numbers are large, but someone having to suffer like this is sick. I’d say more here, but you can read the article yourself.
Brother’s In Arms on the DS is fantastic. A third-person WWII shooter with a cover system. On a hand-held. It works great, really. All you have to do is walk up to a wall and it will automatically cover for you. Use the stylus as your ‘aim’ analog stick, and aim for the enemy. Press the left trigger to fire, and your soldier leaps out from behind cover and fires. Amazing feat for a handheld.
I have a PS3 in my possession. I should be hooking it up tomorrow morning to get a feel of what I haven’t spent $600. I know I need one. After all, owning every console could be a part of my ‘future career’ here on the crazy internets. Or so I’d like it to be.

Well I’m working on something new that I would like to share with everyone. It’s called Gamer Combine. It’s like Myspace and facebook, but exclusively for gamers. I’m working with a buddy of mine, Jason, who pretty much confirms the existence of God through coding. He sits down in front of his Mac laptop and types away in CSS, creating my vision. You can check it out here - Gamer Combine - but so far, there’s not much to it other than the forums. Pretty soon, like Myspace and Facebook, you’ll be creating a profile about yourself, but not about your social life. It will be all about your gaming life. You’ll display all of your gamer ID’s, achievements, pics of your avatars and gaming setups, as well as putting together tournaments and competitions. There’s a lot in-store for Gamer Combine, I just can’t wait to get there.

Ok. So it’s been years. I’m a hardcore gamer, and I’ve always tried getting a good gaming blog up and running. This will be the end all, be all gaming blogs with my blunt and honest opinions on various topics.
