Goodbye Pandemic Studios. Yeap, thanks to EA (Electronic Arts), its now closed. No, I don't know much about marketing and business, lost or profits which may be the reasons that Pandemic was shut down. But damn, Pandemic was shut down even before the release its game ( who knew it was the last game by Pandemic ), The Saboteur.Plus, it was a week before Thanksgiving. Poor dudes.228 staffs were out of work, some were kept prior to the release of The Saboteur. I might buy the game, in memory of Pandemic. It may not be my favourite game developing company but I remember the days I was playing Star wars battlefront 2 on my original Xbox. (The time before Pandemic was bought by EA) It was an awesome game. After that, the other battlefront series were not made by Pandemic. No wonder it sucked. Hah. Then again during those days, it was like playing team deathmatch only that it was Star Wars and I was playing offline with AI team members. Good times.
As for EA, hmm... As much as I'd like to say I hate EA, I can't. I hate to love it but I have to as most of my games were published by EA. Huh, damn it. EA titles in my room, as mush as I can recall are Dragon Age, Brutal Legend, The Simpsons game, FIFA10, Medal of Honor Airborne, Army of Two, Rock band unplugged and Dead Space. Other than that, currently playing Dragon Age, I'm still trying to get use to the type of gameplay, and Left 4 dead 2. May the force bring peace upon you!!!

Suppy doo daa dudes and dudelyz. Nothing is true, everything is permitted. Yeap, that phrase is still being used in Assassin's Creed 2. This time the assassin in the past you'll be playing as Ezio Auditore da Firenze. The game starts off where immediately after the events of the first Assassin's Creed, where Desmond Miles (you) will escape the facility together with the aid of Lucy, your fellow modern assassin, and will go into a new area. There, you will meet new people and the new Animus 2.0 . From then on, you will access the memory of your ancestor, Ezio. From these memories that you access, Desmond will have a bleeding effect. He will take up some abilities from the memories just like the Eagle vision that he gained in AC1. So, the abilities that he will gain from these ancestors will be put to use this time. The game has combat both in present and in the past.
Campaign The story of Ezio is very much different than that of Altair's. Ezio is still a young adult, still growing in the city of Florence, in Italy during the 15th century. There will be four places you will mainly explore that is Venice, Florence, Monterigioni, and Tuscany. His father and two brothers were killed and thus he dedicated his life to seek vengeance upon those who betrayed his family. Well, he gained the assassin suit from his father's last favour, to open up a secret chest. Then on, he became an assassin. But from what I see in Ezio, is that he isn't mature compared to Altair. Ezio learned to be an assassin by himself and the years in the game extends to that of even more than ten years. Well, as usual the Apple of Eden is still wanted and Templars are back minus the full metal body of theirs. You will find codex pages written by Altair and it pretty much explains your duty as an assassin. Trust me, its alot more than just killing. You will find out that there are two pieces of Eden, one is the Apple of Eden ( the power of making five living copies of yourself) the other is a staff which can make the user invisible. When the two keys are found and put together, a secret left by the gods will be unlocked which is what you are supposed to prevent the templars from obtaining it. Well, the rest is up to you gamers to find out.....
Others Weapons wise you, will gain more as you play on. There will be two hidden blades, throwing knives, poison blade, smoke bomb, hidden pistol, a dagger of somesort and a melee weapon. The dagger and melee weapon can be changed when you buy more at the blacksmith. Yeap, theres money now and you have a home(villa) also. At your villa, you can upgrade your entire village (since you are the landlord), see collections of weapons, armour, paintings and statuettes that you have collected. To increase your villa value, buy paintings, armour, weapons or even collect feathers, statuettes. The higher the value, the more money you will get as its .....f/20 min. f = the currency in the game. If you collect the seals of the assassins, you will be granted Altairs armour. It looks sick. Plus, if you collect all feathers you will unlock the Auditore cape. Well, its a tribute to your family. Thats all folks, may the force bring peace upon you!!! Plus - I got 1000G/1000G for AC2. Haha....

Suppy doo daa gamerz, got your copy of Call of Duty 6 : Modern Warfare 2 already?? Boy thats a mouthful, lets call it MW2 for short. I got the game on the day it came out and completed it like half-past 12 midnight which meant I took about a day to complete.
Campaign The campaign is fairly short but holds a very good storyline of the game. Especially the war that will happen in the game between Russia and the US. Not gonna tell ya the story because I don't wanna spoil it although this is a review. You gotta try the game for yourself. Imagine a tank just drove by around american suburbs. Yeap, that does take place in the game. What I tell you is that Captain Price is back. Yeap, that bastard who you thought who was dead is still alive. Due to being kept in prison all these years( 5 yrs), his rank is still captain. The awkward part is that at some point of the game, you will play as Soap MacTavish which was a sarge but now is a captain as well which used to be under Captain Price's team. Well, expect your mind to be blown away in the campaign as the storyline is so darn perfect.
Multiplayer Okay, multiplayer is awesome as per usual. This time your maximum rank would be Lvl 70( commander) if i am not wrong. Im still lvl 19 which I think is just a Staff sergeant I, i may be wrong. Sorry if im wrong cause recently been playing Dragon Age : Origins. Kinda lost in the world of Cod. But as usual like CoD 4, the connection when playing online is darn lagging. I hate that. At least CoD5 can have the choice of choosing a local server thus maximum connection speed. Other than that, theres a wide array of weapons, all weapons can be customized for optimum enjoyment. The only thing I hate is that shotguns are secondary weapons. Well, gotta live with it. Hope Dude Vader 3000 and PuNkAnThEm94 can get their copies so we can shoot asses online. I prefer playing Free-for-all though, which leads to my total winning as only 5 wins and 24 losses.
The graphics are great and not much gore compared to CoD5. I'll give the game 9.5/10. Due to the really really really awesome storyline that it has. Well, no matter what platform you have, you should get Modern warfare 2. Alright, this was a request post. I did it. Another request was about Wii and for me to give reviews. i dont know shit about Wii. All I can say is that project natal for the 360 will overpower the Wii. May the force bring peace upon you!!!!

I just came across this..... Haha, this pure evidence for the PS3 fanboys back at school( no offense to the rest of the world). This is for Rawk, Yyat, Ghaz and even to the CSM. Looks to me that there are more Xbox 360 owners. Haha, well may the force bring peace upon you..!! I'm rubbin it in their faces.
Suppy doo daa Dudelyz, recently been playin a whole damn lot Halo3. I know the game has been around for about 2 years but still it kicks ass. Playing it on Xbox live with my cousin a.k.a. Dude Vader 3000 coz he got the multiplayer disc from Halo3 ODST from his brother which is my other cuz a.k.a. Kyoka Amakusa. We whooped asses online plus the power of another xbox live friend, yodakid, we whooped more asses. I got over 1000G for Halo3 recently which granted me the security armour and the katana armour for my spartan. Im rubbin it on Dude Vader's face. Good times, dont really know if it could happen again next year. Anyhoo, still making up my mind whether or not to buy Cod MW2 prestige edition. Coz I really want to buy a video capture device and record gameplay and even give proper game reviews. Dang, its hard thinking about it. Well, its the time again for the WTF moments, sort of, in gaming. Some images are kinda old but just wanna share it. (Sorry if the images looks cramped up, please feel free to enlarge to get a nice look at the images) Look at him, scratching his glowing balls in a match.
Well, the term playing catch meant that you throw a ball at me and I catch it and I throw it back to you. You...do not throw a sticky grenade instead at my balls which causes me to open fire as a last minute revenge moment knowing that I have a few seconds left to live. ;(
Yeah, in a battle of slayer it doesn't mean that you cant express yourself by dancing.
Oooooo. Ouch, rough landing. Bet ya cant walk or even piss for days.
Last one is from ODST. Well, that displays the Brutes weak spot aint it. Haha...
Well, prior to the launch of Windows 7, Burger King has made a special burger for a special release. Check out this vid by cheapyd...well, peace out, may the force bring peace upon you!!
Suppy doo daa Dudelyz, completed Batman : Arkham Asylum last sunday. The game is flawless. It has got to be one of those heroes in underwears and capes type of video game which is a hit. The game has the detective type of gameplay to it. Okay, you start off as batman sending joker to the prison Arkham Asylum, which is an island itself. The funny thing is that joker surrendered without a fight. Thus, upon arriving joker broke free from the guards and turns out it was all planned. So, batman finds himself trapped in an island full of criminals which most he had apprehend. You will find yourself fighting sort of clones to Bane( super muscular fella) as the serum is given to the prisoners by joker. You have gadgets like the batclaw and the explosive gel to help you go through the game. Plus don't forget, an unlimited amount of batarangs you can throw at your enemies. Graphics are damn great. Why, coz its using Unreal Engine. The same engine used in Unreal Tournament and Gears of War series. Wont spoilt the story much so i'll give it 9/10. Most amazing gameplay in the game is the freeflow combat system. Well, may the force bring peace upon you. !!!!
