you look different somehow. Did you do something with your hair?

well it has been a while since one of my cats was put to sleep and the other vanished. Today I went into my parents room and found a new kitten.

Awesome

Here's a drawing I sketched in school one day of a character from a comic I have been writing in my spare time

her name is Kurai

oh and sorry for the lighting and what not, with a broken scanner I had to take the picture with my phone

what do you guys think?

well today I got three mother fucking rings on my xbox after numerous attempts to play a game, at first I though it was the disk since I was playing my xbox last night and it worked fine and today it was okay for a couple of hours, but after waiting awhile thinking it overheated, I turn it on and there are the rings.

so now I am rather angry and I think I would rather buy a new xbox as opposed to sending the damn thing in and waiting a month to get it back

well, I finally have recon, I don't see the big deal, its cool and all, but nothing really changes. The stuff has been making match making a mess lately

little 10 year olds are begging recon owners to be their friends
people massive teabag recons

lots of betraying

and allot of verbal assault

well, now that I have it, I can rest easy, and soon tons of people will have recon and it won't be special, but atleast there will be less hayabusa wearers out there

prototype that is.

when this is released I am putting it on my must buy list

So here is a picture of my cute little doggy

Well, ODST is out and I just finished campaign so I will post what I think

Campaign: The campaign is just, awesome. Wandering around a practically empty city, with calm piano playing in the backround, Walking through the dark when, BAM, a Brute pops up ( and you didn't expect it because of the lack of radar ) in front of you blasting away. When you finish fighting him you are dying and neeed to find health quick, you stick to the shadows and out of enemy sight and reach a health pack and you continue to search for your missing teammates.

Your main objective is to travel about the city of New Mombasa looking for clues as to what happened to your squad. When you reach one of the clues you go back in time and play as one of your squadmates in a more linear level.

gameplay:

well, if you have played the halo games, the controls really haven't changed, execpt no duel wielding and instead of equipment you get the hud, which basically is night vision and identifies who is friend or foe as well as helping to find clues.

since you aren't a spartan anymore, you don't have energy shields. Instead you have a small stamina bar and when that depletes you start losing health each time you get hit. Its more so like halo 1 with a small shield an health.

Your melee isn't a super strong attack anymore either.

Music: The music, like the rest of the halo series, is very well done, all the music is new, Since the other games themes really symbolized master chief and how he was a one man army, now you are in a dark city, alone, and you are vulnerable. Very different tempo.

Graphics:

these are fantastic, They really made graphical improvements over halo 3.

well, I might aswell move on to firefight

Its basically horde but in halo, Waves of enemies come at you while you hold a position with 3 other players and as the game goes on, the computer turns on more skulls to make it more of a challenge

when you start you have 9 lives, not individually, but to share with your team. Allot of it is conservation of health packs and weapons. So you have to use them wisely

well, If I have anything to add later I will, honestly this was worth the $60 ( in my opinion ) With all the maps ( plus 3 new ones ), fun multiplayer survival mode, an engaging campaign all around, this is a good buy for halo lovers. I would say its a rent for those who blast through games, or those who get bored quickly with these kind of games.

well as I am sure allot of you know the necromancer dlc came out for castle crashers today, here is my opinion after playing with it

Characters

Necromancer

basically, THIS IS ONE OF THE COOLEST CHARACTERS IN THE GAME

he starts with that black katana sword which is a major help upping your defense by 7 and health by 2.

he looks very cool and his magic is awesome. "Y" makes a line of hands come out of the ground to knock over your enemies and "b" will shoot skeletons at your opponents like in the boss battle, and his magic jump launches him in the air with a red and yellow cloud with a couple of bones flying through the air, this character was meant to be a magic user.

the Wizard henchmen

Well this one is no where near as cool as the one above, but he is okay, he shares pretty much everything with the skeleton exept his appearance, same magic and even the same arrows ( bones )

Pet

Dragon head

well, in a Nutshell, he is pelter exept instead of shooting ice, he shoots fire. Although it might of just been me, but he seems to shoot his attack way more often than pelter or any of the attacking animal orbs.

weapons

the Chainsaw is a bit of a disappointment actually, all it does is up defense by 4. I was really hoping it would be a really good one like the NG sword, but you know its still a chainsaw which is bad ass.

the gold mace doesn't up anything, although it does get allot of criticals making it a good weapon

also both of those weapons do dark damage

So how does this stack up against the king pack?

well the king packs weapons are very good and the king is cool to play as

dragon head is pelter but with fire and he shoots more often,

but in the end it comes down to the characters, the Necromancer is badass and you feel badass when playing as him, and the wizard henchmen is not as cool as the king in my opinion, but the king pack is dragged down by the grey knight with no visor, he is pretty much a clone of many characters with arrow magic ( except he throws knives like thief and forest knight )

for the most part the 2 dollars needed for necromancer pack is defanitely worth it for the necromancer alone.

If you can't choose which to get first, my vote is for the necromancer

damn I need a scanner, me and my friend were drawing all day and we drew some pretty kick ass stuff. Too bad my scanner is broken and I can't show the world. All I can do is use paint to show people art, which sucks. They need a thing to plug into ones computer that is an electronic canvas with a pen. although that would probably cost hell of a lot of money.
