Comment on "I WANNA BE THE GUY"

I beat the game on Medium and Hard. Once you know the maps and all the patterns, it's easy. I have about 800 or so deaths and it took an hour a day for a month to beat it.(Not so bad)

Comment on "Directed Blog Post 4: MMORPG Research"

Sat, 14 Jun 2008 18:06:10 -0500

Nice post. I must say, though, that I don't personally find it shocking that its almost an almost 50/50 gender split for MMORPGs. Females seem more drawn to those and normal RPGs than any other gaming genre. Now, if those were 50/50 results for a FPS, THEN I'd be very shocked...

How many hours a day do you have to play the game for in order to get the private jet? hehe I would commit to full time if that's what it takes.

I know the feeling. Every spring I find myself in the same situation....the weather is nice and I don't feel like doing anything. Freshman year I was the typical Freshman and was so scared of doing well that I actually stayed kinda motivated. Sophmore year I was like F*** It I'm playing wiffle ball. This year I find myself somewhere in between. I have to get on top of the BBQ thing though.

Ah the wonders of building your own. I'm thinking about upgrading myself, I've had the same build since 2004, except a cheap video card upgrade when my OLD Ti4200 gave up the ghost playing CS:S in 2005. I'm definitely looking at a mid to high end core 2 but still gotta decide if I've got 900 bucks to burn. Well, these days all the games are free, right?

I too have been caught up with the nice weather lately and have been finding myself outside the majority of the day when im not in class. This video is hilarious and is just the thing I wanted to see after coming inside after being outside all of today. :)

Nice youtube video, good old Wilford Brimley. Yes I agree it is way too nice out to be playing around on line, however with my nifty fifty laptop I was sitting out in the sun playing around on line. Oh yea I bbq'd up some chicken the other day w00t!

Nice purchase Auggie. I'm glad that you took the time to announce you new purchase of that bike because I am in need of a new one too since mine is sitting at home in my garage with 2 flat tires..haha I am looking into buying a new bike this summer though.

This game is tough, but it is also do-able if you take the time. I have been playing this game for a few days now and have gotten to the first 3 bosses, Mike Tyson, Zangeiff, and The Brain. I suggest anyone to try this game out, and look at youtube videos of "IWBTG" for help.

You're right. This is brutal. Probably the cruelest game I've ever played in my life. After about 40 tries, I managed to make it past the second screen in the demo version in Hard Mode (and by "Hard Mode", I mean the easiest option available).

While it's most definitely beatable, I've been told that this terrible game I made in high school is infuriatingly difficult in a similar way.

Comment on "Call of Duty 4: Is it better than sex?"

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 11:27:28 -0500

Although I too think video games are addicting, I dont know if they are better then sex(just my opinion). I spent some of my spring break in Fenwick Island, DE at the beach but since it was a little on the chilly side, I found myself playing video games almost all day every day for the four days I was there. All in all, my break was pretty good, it was good to just relax and do nothing! I'm glad you had a great break too playing COD4!

Comment on "The Blue Brain"

Interesting find. While it seems there are quite a few skeptics, there's always the chance of some huge, unexpected breakthrough that could revolutionize computing as we know it, and I think the chance is worth continuing with the research. I just read an article about some other significant progress we're making with the human mind:

When rocking out to Bowie on Rock Band, you do feel like a star. I think that is also some of the appeal of the game. It takes you to a different reality. I think the game kind of sells itself in this manner. This added with commercials make it an instant success!

That is a pretty sweet pic! With that kind of technology I can definently see robot's taking over the human race in the future but not anytime soon. I would expect something like this to occur AT LEAST a couple hundred years down the road. Let me say that I am just glad that it hopefully wont happen during my lifetime because that could get pretty awkward and creepy.

Comment on "My brief thoughts on consumerism"

Wed, 27 Feb 2008 20:46:26 -0500

Nice simple post. I agree with you, consumbers have become slaves of the companies who sell things thanks to fast easy transactions using a credit and or debit card over the internet for purchases.
