kid rages out in world of warcraft HAHA

new mortal kombat vs dc multiplayer online gameplay

Maybe the Top 5 games of Fall 2008.

I seen a lot of footage of some beta games. here some of my thoughts.

1. Killzone 2 .. i think is going to be the best game of the fall, it was suppose to come out last year when cod 4 poped out. but, it had many delays. i thin the extra year, has served it good justice. it has great sound, still sticking to close to modern combat with a touch of the future nothing to stupid. the only problem i have with the game is that PS3 PSN is the worst online gameing service on earth with the worst interfaces giveing you a total downer when it comes to fludity. unless im wrong and they have dedicated servers thats the only down side i see to the game so far.

2. call of duty World at war. Well with infinity wards engine running treyarcs game how can you go wrong. with great service from xboxlive and the hughe following of over 10 million plus online multiplayer gamers the fun will be endless. the only thing i see wrong with this game is the fact its in world war 2. i think people are mostly tired of that. but, treyarch makes up for in in gameplay. i think the beta is really short only 3 weeks meaning the games already to be shipped so if theres anything wrong with it were not going to see a patch until jan early feb. based of past experience from call of duty series issues.

3.Mortal kombat vs Dc we've been waiting for an american fighting game forever. not that midway ever listen to anyone and that ed boon looks like syler off heros lol. but, damm they hav'nt had a good game since alliance or maybe mortal kombat 2. i like the fludity of the game it moves like killer instinct did back it the day. but, it seem they never fix the side steps low kick grab cheez ball stuff. right now everyone is fps and 3rd person crazy right now its really a small nitch and moneys tight. good luck mk.

4.Far cry 2now far cry sucked big donkey dick and the multplayer was as bad as amercian army ubisofts version of a first perso shooter of graw. i really dont know how they got another chance to make a part two. but, what ive see is that everthing looks pretty good. it kinda looks like battlefield 2.5 kinda what battlefield 3 but with less graphics of a call of duty. but, ill give it a chance even though there more driven toward a single player game vs multiplayer. maybe there still learning how to max out the graphics to the console and just growing pains. maybe they'll hit pay dirt in part 3.

5. Gears of war 2 now i really hav'nt played much of gow, but, im a big multiplayer online guy. and 4 on 4sucks and i really dont like 3rd person games. this game has a lot of hype behing it no thanks to microsoft. but, thats the way the world works. what they think is right is right. i dont feel that way but it gets pushed until everyone likes it so if you dont play it you wont be playing anyone in anything. i hope mirco. dont cock block the bandwith. im just hoping for this to be the first 3rd person game i can digest.

far cry 2 multiplayer interview

its obvious that multiplayer is not as good as singleplayer.

killzone 2 beta more gameplay online

Call of Duty 4, NEW GAMETYPES.

The Video says it all.

Bungie bullshit viral marketing ploy to "get people hyped"!



yeah, right who's fucken dumb enough to fall for this? "yeah, were coming out with a new trailer at the E3" Halo's series is garbage. Its nothing more then microsoft spending x amount of money hyping it up. Bungie is as about as Lucky as,
M. Night Shyamalan, making his one hit wonder the sixth sense. lets be serious. the game has'nt changed in 6 years. ill be shocked if they come out with a good game. the only thing they learned under microsoft is how to hype up shitty games. now they have to do it with"OUT" money. so, what better way to ride there hype wave from halo by pulling this bullshit move. http://www.bungie.net/images/games/Reboot_homePage ...

E3 how many dumb games can be made in one year??


wow, did anyone see mirrors image? now this is damm funny. what do you get when you mix the E insurance girl with Aeon Flux a douche bag game called mirrors image. i know these guys at DICE got big heads but, ever since battlefield 2 these guys suck ass. they totally fucked up battlfield bad company.
we all know that they did the right thing the first time bye making a good multiplayer game "first" and a shitty single player game in battlfield 2. but, they've done the opposite in battlfield bad company. Now i guess EA thinks there the shit and gives them shit load of money to make games like mirror image. some stupid aeon flux/e insurance chic jumping around in first person from building to building delievering mail. ahhaha are you fucking kidding me. thats what the fuck fed ex is for. What the fuck is Owen O'brien doing over at DICE????? makes me wonder if they fucked up when the boys left dice to join kaos to make fuel of war??? ED BOON AND OWEN O'BRIEN need to meet i think there fucken clones or something?? babling idoits who have no idea whats going on with there own game that are completey shitty and wasteful. how about a BIG FUCK YOU because, im not buying anymore expeirments., mother fuckers in the real world get paid to be ginny pigs.

Gears of War 2??? its a classic mortal kombat ripp off



Gears of War is what ed boon from midway should have done years ago for a spin off. now gears of war 2 is turned into nothing more then a fatality fest finishing move game. its like g.r.a.w. meets mortal kombat. wow, what a great concept. the funny part it looks like these homo's are running around with full pants of shit pack in there ass. then finishing moves "ORGINAL CONCEPT" that midway and ed boon fucked off and now dont even have in there mortal kombat game that D C dictated to them that you can't have finishing moves in your own game are there that many stupid ass people who get brainwashed into buying games just because microsoft has a lot of money and pushs it like its the next best thing to sliced bread. am i the only one that thinks this way. im starting to wonder if the gaming world is taking the same path as super hero movies and comic books.

Far Cry 2?? is it going to be anygood?




Far Cry 1 sucked dick... theres no if an's or buts about it. how people get money to make the same game over after it flops. beat the shit outta me. but, i fucken hate ubisoft too. there dumb fucken retards who can't make a game. there only claim to fame is rainbow six series which has been pasted up like a turtle standing still in the gaming world.

i can give a flying fuck about single player either. but, i do like the way the movement looks and the fluidity of game play. lets hope this translates into multiplayer care. ubisoft can;t seem to figure that out in the gameing world. or they must suck at programing that or there too fucken cheap to do it. which ever comes first. but, dont give us a trailer of a game that looks good but, fucken sucks in mulitplayer and has a shitty lobby with a fucked up leaderboard. whats the fuck of point of making game if your going to leave out all that i just mentioned. where the fuck is the gameing police when you need them. ubisoft stop fucking games up. your like a white guy trying to rap. its a disgrace to the gaming industry. when you do half ass games.

bye the fucken way. im putting out notice to any fucken game making company. i m fucken tried of half ass fuck off games. if you don't come hard with the full package be prepared to get fucked in the ass hard with nails in it.

The Ultimate Gaming TV 56” D56QX1 LCD Quad Monitor. 50k. WOW!!

Las Vegas (NV) – Westinghouse has increased the size of its Quad HD LCD and slightly increased its price tag. The screen size has grown from 52” to 56” and most of us still can’t afford it.



We were deeply impressed when we saw a demonstration of Westinghouse’s 52” Quad HD LCD about 18 months ago. At the time, Westinghouse was very secretive about shipments and pricing, but we managed to learn that the display was available in very limited numbers and was offered especially to companies that have a need for high-resolution graphics displays in exchange for $50,000. Over the recent months we heard that these displays eventually dropped to about $40,000.

The new 56” D56QX1 LCD Quad Monitor is back up to 56: and officially available for purchase beginning this month. Compared to your average 1080p HDTV, the LCD has four times the resolution: 3840 x 2160 pixels produce a stunning 8.3 megapixels, which is overkill for most consumer electronics but a useful feature for 3D, medical, geological, military recon applications. The display also delivers a 1200:1 contrast ratio, 500 nits brightness and a 6.5 ms response time. Westinghouse said that D56QX1 is compatible with a wide variety of dual-link DVI video cards including ATI and Nvidia.

Quad HD LCDs are still very rare, but we have seen several announcements in recent months, including TVs a 56” version from Sapphire and Samsung’s 82” monster.

Recording from hdmi tv, 720p video games for youtube N streaming gaming. how do i do it?




ive been looking around for this problem. and really and maybe im just not seeing it. but, its not cheap. i have been doing it the hard way because i cant afford a 999.00 dollar system which is quite easy. but, i dont wanna get ripped off. because the price drops next year.

now if your like me and own a 1080p lcd tv and have a xbox elite or a ps3 which has hdmi cables. and want to record but no one has made anything to do so, well look no further. i have some intresting stuff here to help you get your game on.

ill make a video later to explain most. but, here are some pics and websites. ill be adding on to this story as i go along.

this system is for people who just wanna put sdmi chip it and record its that simple. which i like because all you have to do is load it to youtube. since now they take 720p hd now. as where before they did'nt. so, thats cool.

720p this is the website for the hd recorder. which is really easy. but, expensive.

now this video use's dazler. which is not hd or hdmi. thats if you have av cables or compent cables. no hdmi


this is the closest you can get to record hd without hdmi svideo hd.



now if you want to stream on justintv. or ustream tv. you can use the blitz box but, its still not true hdmi.


its a lot of spotty stuff. but, theres not a unversial tool yet. thats cheap enuff. good luck and stay tuned.

cod 4 gun range and breakdown

Stock Player health is 100.

weapons chart



The percentages for Stopping Power, Sonic boom and Juggernaut are mostly irrelevant. A simple explanation:
Juggernaut was designed so that you survive take one more shot from any weapon.
Stopping Power was designed so that you would need to make one less hit with any weapon to score a kill.
Even without the literal cancelling-out, the two are perfectly balanced against each other.
Sonic Boom increases damage just enough for Hand Grenades to kill even at the very edge of the indicator range.

Hip Accuracy is simple enough. Draw a circle that touches all four crosshairs, and the bullet will land within that circle.
Steady Aim improves accuracy by shrinking the diameter and tightening the crosshairs to 65%.

I've yet to find the data for Steady Aim, so only an in-game test can get a result for now.
Credit to SSoG on the CharlieOscarDelta boards for doing his own test.

Doing my own test, using a PC screen resolution of 1680x1050.
Using the SAW's hip accuracy of 10, that way it is easier to calculate.
Two screenshots, with and without Steady Aim. A simple measurement, and the crosshairs have closed in at approximately 66% of their original distance.
Scaling the circles to any other weapon's crosshairs results in the same change in accuracy.

Using a mod for PC, I changed the hip spread of the SAW's 10 to 6.6, and it appeared a pixel too large.
Change to 6.5 and it is a perfect match to a 10 + Steady Aim.
End result: 65% hip accuracy exactly.


---

WHY THE G36c IS AWESOME
There are four weapons in the Assault and SMG classes that "idle" when sighted:
The AK47, the M4, the AK74u and the G36c
The first three all move from the center of the screen at the same speed and radius. The fourth is unique.
Not only does the G36c deviate far less, it moves slower AND stance improves its steadyness.

The hard numbers don't matter, saying they do 40 at 1.5 won't make a bit of sense, I'm just showing them to explain it:
The values involved are called ADSIdleAmount, ADSIdleSpeed and ADSIdle[Stance]Factor.

I'll just address the M4 since the three are the same.
M4 has a universal ADS Idle Speed of 1.5 and an Amount of 40, all attachments included (ACOG too).
G36c has 70% the Amount (28) and nearly half the speed (0.8) when sighted, standing.
Crouching, the G36c's idle Amount is cut in half (21) and the speed is almost a third (0.6) of the M4.
Prone, it'll barely move (11, 0.3).

The G36c is very steady when aiming down the sights compared to the other fully-automatic rifles.
Even moreso if crouched or prone.

Before anybody asks: No Sniper rifle or ACOG moves around less if crouched or prone. (oh hey, new discrepancy)
The G36c (+ attachments, ACOG included) is the only Primary Weapon that benefits from different Idle Stance Factors.
The pistols Idle at nearly the same rate as the G36c and have slightly improved steadyness when crouched or prone.

battlefield bad company OWZNS!!!!!!!



battlefield bad company, who cares about anything else online for xboxlive. not only does it bring call of duty 4 graphics. but, it also brings what cod 4 and iw fail to capture. dedicated servers, NO LAG,. YOU get booted if your doing anything other then playing the game. i.e. stream videos, your sisters online. your dads homebased business.

BBC- will also do what ubisoft never can do, even though ea owns a % of ubisoft, but, the only reason they bought anything in that company was to combat the cod 4 series, which is merely a thorn in the battlefield series. lets not mistake anything that cod 4 series has done. but, to raise the bar of military fps games.

really i cant see any difference in the whole ball of wax. since, yes, rainbow six runs of the same engine that gears of war runs on. everyone should have realize this 2 years ago. but, who like s 3rd person shooters anyways. really, gow 2 will be the only 3rd person shooter that should ever be made or even worth playing in 3rd person.

we all know that BBC will be the best game ever made. lets look at the facts. cod 4 and Rb6 V2 are both great graphic games. but, what they both lack, is what BBC is all about. rb6 v2 and cod 4, had plenty of plenty time to catch bf2 model. "look" were talking about a game that was released on the orginal xbox that was almost played more as demo then halo 2 as a orginal game.

BBC will crush any game on xbl. it will crush cod 4 and rb6v2 and halo 3. the biggest simple reason on earth. people want DEDICATED servers. it poked its head up in bf2,on the orginal xbox. owned the 360, what really cracks me up. is what the hell is everyone thinking. with hosted games. is everyone following the wrong model. HALO 3. i really feel sorry for all those games in bbc path.

to bad for fuel of war. kaos. they got the right idea with dedicated servers. but, the graphics are not there. bbc has what all 4 games dont have. graphics, gameplay, and online dedicated service. the industry is truly about to change.

LSU use's NCAA EA football video game to beat Ohio St.


LSU Players Use Video Games to Prepare

By RALPH D. RUSSO – 1 day ago

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — When practice is over and film study is done, LSU quarterbacks, as most college kids do, play video games. The difference is Matt Flynn and Ryan Perrilloux are usually still working on the game plan for the BCS national championship game against Ohio State when they fire up the Xbox these days.

LSU offensive coordinator Gary Crowton has used a custom-made video game to help his quarterbacks learn to read defenses.

XOS Technologies, a company that specializes in gearing technology to the needs of coaches, worked with EA Sports to produce the PlayAction Simulator that LSU has used this season.

"What they've done is they put our plays into the video game and then they put in our opponents' defenses," said Crowton, the Tigers' first-year offensive coordinator.

The game looks and plays just like the popular Madden NFL and NCAA football games, though all the goofy stuff such as player celebrations, cheering crowds, mascots and bands have been removed.

LSU and Tennessee were the first schools to use it this season and it went well enough that XOS expects to make it available to all its clients this year. The company provides technology to most Division I schools.

"The video game is an excellent resource we have," Perrilloux said. "Whenever we hit a play, that play would automatically match up with the defense that we would see or blitz we would see.

"If you make the wrong decision it's an automatic interception or it's an automatic incompletion."

Crowton is able to customize each quarterback's video game playbook.

"You can make it faster and harder for my experienced guys; more experienced people running the offense and more experienced guys who know how to play the games," Crowton said.

So when Flynn, LSU's fifth-year senior starter, sits down to play, he's got an extensive selection of plays from which to choose, compared with Perrilloux, the No. 2 quarterback whom Crowton usually limits to about 10 plays per game.

When Flynn plays, the game forces him to make decisions faster than say, third-stringer Andrew Hatch, who's in his first season and not as adept at running the offense.

"It definitely helps you make the right reads and get to the right spot," Flynn said.

The game doesn't take the place of practice or film study, but it's probably a little more fun.

"It was cool," Perrilloux said. "It focuses on what you bring to the table during that game." And "it looks just like me."

The idea seems like a natural considering how popular video games are among all college kids, especially athletes.

Albert Tsai, vice president of advanced research and development for XOS, said the company started working on the idea about two years ago when some coaches suggested it.

Former Ravens coach Brian Billick was one of the first. Tsai recalled a trip to the University of Iowa when a coach pulled out a game control and said, "we need something that can work with this."

The 50-year-old Crowton is a bit of a tech-head. The former BYU head coach has been in the business for 25 years and has been using computers since way back before laptops were everywhere.

"When I started with technology I had a little Tandy computer from Radio Shack that helped me get a job at New Hampshire," he said.

While Crowton was ahead of his time back in the late 1980s, these days most coaches embrace technology as a teaching tool.

He's not much of a gamer, though.

"My thumbs aren't fast enough," he said. "I've always been a big computer guy, but when I was younger Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man was the game."

For now the PlayAction Simulator is geared solely toward quarterbacks and is played from their perspective. Crowton said he wouldn't be surprised if eventually players at other positions will be able to use it.

It already scores high with him.

"The thing is pretty realistic," he said. "It's in position right now where we can really take off with it through the winter, going into spring ball and for next year.

"It's still in its infant stages for us ... but it's been kind of fun for our guys."

Not enough servers for call of duty 4 players on xboxlive

Microsofts offers free arcade game, for horrible holiday service

Microsoft admits to having some trouble over the holidays with Xbox Live, the online service it offers for users of its Xbox 360 video game console. To make amends the company will offer Xbox Live users a free game from Xbox Live Arcade.

In a statement posted to the service, Xbox Live general manager Marc Whitten said that the problems with Xbox Live downtime were caused by an influx of new users who had gotten an Xbox 360 over the holidays. It's been a record-setting season for Xbox Live.

"This included our largest sign-up of new members to Xbox LIVE in our 5 year history and just yesterday you broke the record for the single biggest day of concurrent members ever on the service," said Whitten.

Xbox Live enables Xbox 360 users to find each other and play against (or cooperatively) online, if they pay for a "Gold" membership. All Xbox 360 users are given a free "Silver" membership that enables them to log on, exchange e-mail with one another, view game statistics and download games and movies, demos, trailers and tv shows (though most of the content outside demos costs additional money to get).

Although the service was never completely offline, Whitten said that Microsoft was "disappointed" with Xbox Live's performance. He thanked users for their patience.

"At the same time we would like to offer a token of our appreciation to all of you in celebration of record success for the service," he said. All Xbox Live users around the world will get access to a full Xbox Live Arcade game that will be available for download free of charge. Whitten stopped short of identifying the game or when, exactly, it would be available.

"In the coming weeks we will be sharing the specific details of this offer with you," said Whitten.
