long time no time

So in short - Ive been busy

anyway....

You know that recently new Blackberry Storm, right? Every time the commercial comes on it makes me want to scream. In the commercial, the man using excliams about how the touch screen keybord clicks... Well guess what blackberry, The iPhone does that! In fact it did it way before you every did. Whats that blackberry? you also say it has 3g internet speeds and nice easy to use email? Have you been under a freakin rock...

But it's not just blackberry ( although their blackberry storm is one of the worst ) making all these iphone clones. The LG Dare which I have the misfortune of having which also screems "I wanna have the sucess". Then there's Sprint with their Instinct . It's ridiculous. Do they not know what innovation is? But then thats the key to the iPhone. It was new, quick, and stylish. Now we have all these Knock-offs thinking they can do practically the same thing expecting the same popular demand. You could probably take the audio from some of the iPhone commercials and put that in place of the audio from the knock off commercials and it would be advertising the same thing, especialy with the Storm.

Back to the gaming scene...

F.E.A.R. 2 Left me speechless, let alone depressed, confused, disturbed, and put me on a roller coster of emotion. F.E.A.R 2 did something, that I haven't seen that often. Leaving you entirely helpless and unable to help the characters that the game tries to make you close to. A part inparticular with one of your fellow operatives named Keagen (misspelling?) where he literally wanders off for the latter part of the game. You end up following him seeing him randomly puff into smoke or yell or scream. Then after a while I would actually yell at my computer screen "KEAGEN!!" because I just knew he had a terrible fate comming and "I knew I had to stop it", I didn't want him to die, I wanted to save him so badly. Well you do find him and lets just leave it with I wish I could have done more for him. It almost made me feel the way I felt about Eli Vance at the end of Half Life 2 : episode 2.
Also I never want to be THAT CLOSE to Alma ever ever ever ever again. The game kinda ended at a bad time. Big cliffhanger.

By the way Mirrors edge for PC looks more than amazing. It's the only game I cancompare graphically to Crysis. It's actually a quite a bit different than the 360version, with sheet physics, realistic tearing with flags and such. Also the DLC for more race maps has recently become avlible. I actually advise getting it, worth your while.

Let's see what else...

Oh yea GTA IV DLC the Lost and the Damned came out. It's alright but has too much F-bombing. The multiplayer mode Chopper vs. Chopper is hands down one of my favorites.

It can get very epic.

Left 4 Dead get's more epic everytime I play it. Me and freinds (while waiting for the upcoming survival mode due this spring) have created our own survival mode, which involves entering a infinate panic event on any of the final episodes of any campagin on easy... Ya on easy. Now just because it's on easy doesnt make it too easy when your tring to hold out with two to three tanks at the same time. The best is in Dead Air on top of the plane, or Death Toll , in which I advise activating the rescue boat to come the running back to just ouside the safe room in the middle of the street.

Well thats it for now... oh wait it's not because once again I went mentally insane today, get the lemonade away from me. Keagen should stop running away, why do I always die after saving someone else from a tank, since when does mirrors edge have snipers shoot rats and birds, why does the chopper not explode on impact, look at the clouds go by, says the king of fridays.
