Halo 3 Beta Thoughts and Shadowrun Anticipation

I’m quite lucky as I was sold on the Crackdown game; yet, not only for the fact of the Halo 3 Beta, but also because the game seemed to offer up a slew of goodness from what I had read. Well… Bungie had confirmed a release day for the Halo 3 Beta, May 16th! It’s been 11 days since the release and I’ve practically played everyday from the 16th until today. That alone lends to proof that it is still as addictive as the previous installment, Halo 2. Graphics have taken a huge leap forward; I just can’t fathom the reasoning for how anyone can substantially claim that the graphics aren’t much better than Halo 2! The new toys (Bubble Shield, Power Drainer, Grav Lift, etc…) are quite entertaining along with a new tactic of how to play. The maps are well designed and laid out, and the vehicles are great as well; so, then, what is missing to make it an amazing game that is tipping the charts of excitement?

I believe that it’s really all just boiled down to a sequel with nothing flamboyant enough to push it over the edge like Halo 2 did. That’s not to say it won’t sell a zillion and one copies shortly after release, but I personally feel it is lacking something to give it a great edge over amazingness. I could be wrong and it might just be me… but I’m not impressed.

On the other hand, Shadowrun intrigues me much more and hope the devs have tweaked it immensely since the beta days…
That is one game I can see me playing for a good long while to come. Plus, it arrives next week!

MyTunes RSS

I think I’ve found the most simplistic method for sharing my massive mp3 library online and locally! Not only is it simple to set-up and get running, but it is very clean and sleek. I’ve created a “guest” user to browse my 80+ gigs of music all tagged, organized, and filed anally. Enjoy…

iTunes RSS

If I see too much bandwidth being used it will be throttled!

Also check out MyTunesRSS, which is waht could make this amazing feat possible!

Bright Future

Life can be very good! I have been promoted at my job and I’m moving to another store; although I’m not too happy about the part of moving to another store I am ecstatic about the promotion! Thank you Jeff & Kevin!!! It’s a great feeling to have my hard work being recognized and appreciated.

This past semester which ended on May 4th went great and I pulled away with 2 As and a B! I look forward to enrolling into Fall term for another slew of classes to tackle and leave with great grades.

My sweetheart is still as beautiful and amazing since the first day I laid eyes on her face. She believes in me and her positive beliefs push me through all the hard-ships to succeed and shine through; I love you sweetheart.

Ahh, gaming… what’s new? HALO 3!!! The beta dropped on the lucky people that were in the know of how to get in. crackdown was my ticket. I’m slightly impressed, but I am awaiting some more finalized details of content, total online maps, modes, new features, and video controls. Although it does look much more purtier over Halo 2, it needs to offer more… in my opinion.

I am selling my motorcycle, I know I’m going to miss it badly; and, I’m hunting for a vehicle I can afford and trust for reliability. I wish I could keep my zoom zoom toy, but it’s just not feasible for transportation, it’s great on gas, but when if it rains I can’t show up to work looking like a drowned rat! Hopefully eBay will be my savior in the hunt for a good car that I can depend on.

Well… peace out!

Gaining Readers?

I’m curious as to what most blog readers enjoy reading about? I suppose it can vary widely because everyone has their own preferences. I just would like ot have a steady stream of readers seeing my thoughts. Am I not interesting enough? Are my writings just non-sense that most people don’t care to waste time reading? I’m not looking for celebrity status, but just a faithful crowd that drive me towrite more frequently and pressure me to give them content they enjoy.

I do know I’ve been extremely dedicated to work and school which explains my lack of writings. Which I might add has been going quite smoothly. I’ve put a lot of dedication into both equally well to progress and advance. Life can be good, as long as you see that way. Yet, remember, that although things may seem down and outright rock bottom - things could always be much worse!

On a final note me and my sweetheart Erin are still together! This has been thee best relationship so far. We are so different yet so similar and keep each other going. I love this woman; and one day I do wish to take her hand to the alter for a unity bond for life.
