Once again, I have been lazy, I know. I've been driving for about three weeks now and I'm loving it. I don't have a car yet but I'm driving my Mom's Infinite I35 so it's all good. Nothing else new has happened that's worth updating here so I'll be back with more later.
An hour ago I was playing Halo 2 on XBOX Live and let me just say this. SO FREAKIN COOL!!!!!!!!!! The game is 1000000000 times better online than in multi-player or campaign mode. It's so cool because a lot of kids talk so much shit and you can just say stuff like "well I think it's time for you to suck my dick" and then they can't do anyting! It's so funny! I won 1 game of slayer, 2 games of team slayer, and 1 game of capture the flag. I never came in under 3rd place the whole time. IT WAS SOOOO COOOOL!
Not much on Red vs. Blue. You kind of have to go to their site for more details but all I can say is that Episode 45 is out and it's not that bad. Be sure to also check out "The Strangerhood" section of the website. It looks like the same thing just in red but it's a whole seperate series. Check it out. They also have new merchandise in their store.
I hope everyone had a safe and filling Thanksgiving and I hope that everyone is going to have a wonderful Christmas.
I saw Blade Trinity today and I have to say only these two things. Jessica Beil is hott as hell in this movie, and the action is twice as good as the past movies. Okay, maybe not as good as the first one but definitely better than the second. The script lacked substance but then again it's not supposed to have it in the first place. Cool movie, go see it. I give it a 7/10.
That's all, once again, for now. I'm begining to lose interest in this whole thing so try and keep me into it. AND BORTZ I NEED MY RVB DVD BACK.

O.k. I know, I haven't updated in forever and I have good reasons!!
First off, I know 90% of you have gone out and bought Halo 2 and are probably...not as impressed as you thought you would be. Here is my "official" review: Halo 2, the sequel to it's unbeatable counterpart Halo, came out midnight, November 9th.
I was eagerly waiting for it since the 2 week mark and lets just say I probably got kind of annoying with a day or 2 left. But, I wasn't as pleased as I had hoped with it. While it has amazing graphics, good gameplay, and a decent storyline, the game itself, I hate to say this because of all the hard work the people at Bungie put in, wasn't as good as I had hoped.
I'm sure all of you saw the E3 demo video, the level in the city with the "Bet ya can't stick it" line by Cortana at the end, well that level wasn't even in the game....I don't know why, it was my main source of excitement of Halo 2. In my opinion, the game would have been better if the designers had spent more time on the game and less time on the cut scenes. There is over 100 minutes of cut scenes and that's the length of a movie. While the cut scenes are outstanding, the point of a game is for the game to be outstanding.
But! The game isn't bad by any means, it is in fact one of the best first person shooters I've ever played. It has downsides however. You have no health bar, you just have a shield. When holding 2 weapons you melee attack without dropping one of them and the same rule applies to grenades. The levels, in my opinon, are too long and complicated.
You can also be the Covenant. In multi-player and in Campaign mode. However, it's not as cool as it sounds. Although you have active camoflouge which you can turn on by pressing the white button. And you can wield the energy sword which would kill you in one hit in Halo 1.
The best part of the game is the multi-player. Yes, Blood Gulch and Battle Creek still exist. There are all new levels and there is no sidewinder :-( but oh well. It is really cool and there are Wraiths, Banshees, and Ghosts on every level. It's so cool! And you can customize your character in every way. All the way down to the emblem on his shoulder.
The storyline is very cool, graphics, gameplay, action, and weapons are AWESOME! (you can hijack vehicles, drive the Covenant battle tanks, hold 2 weapons, you have all new weapons and the Covenant have their old weapons plus a lot of new ones, there are new enemies called Brutes and they're like big Neanderthaul type creatures.) the the ending sucks alot so there had better be a Halo 3. I leave you with this note...GO BUY THE GAME!!!!!!
Red vs. Blue is WELL into their 3rd season now and so far it is SWEEEEEEET!!! go to their website and download episodes 39-43 if you haven't already.
P.S. I got my license

All of you hard core Halo fans are, with no doubt, waiting uncontrollably for the release of Halo2 on November 9th, 2004. What you may not know is that there has been a pirated copy of the highly anticipated game and has been placed on the internet for peer-to-peer downloading (Kazaa, LimeWire ect.). It occured a matter of days, perhaps a week ago, when a French person somehow got a hold of his own copy and put it on the web.
As the above link will tell you, there is a severe punishment for those caught downloading this illegal copy. Microsoft and Bungie have slaved over this for about 3 years now. And they're finally this close, and some French douche bag goes and does this. It's wrong I tell you, and I hope that Microsoft catches this/these guys and sends them to prison.
The punishment is a $100,000 fine and other legal liabilities if necessary. ALso, if you have XBOX Live, Microsoft will "cripple" your account so that you will be unable to play this amazing game (Halo2) online. Which is one of the main things people are looking forward to.
As you can plainly see this is no joke. It's all over the place and it's really not worth getting a pirated copy. Just wait the not even a month longer and get the real thing. Plus, nobody wants it in French do they?
And my road test in is one week from today.
