Best Games I've previewed so far

I've decided to shake things up a bit with game reviews


1. Bioshock

As I just bought a new pc the beginning of this year, SPECIFICALLY for lag-proof play of Counterstrike, I also got it to preview Bioshock (the first release) from Steam. You must enter your birthdate which I don't understand but the game is great! You have the option to use your xbox controller instead of the mouse which is the only reason I will purchase any piece of the xbox. I'll have to get my boyfriend into it so I can play it on his mac pro when he leaves me in the house alone. A game set around an atlantis in 1960s style (my favorite era, as Fallout is quite similar), you fight some really deranged malformed people, I haven't gotten far into it, nor have I read jack about the game, so I don't know what the premise is yet. I just played a demo of it and instantly was in love, I didn't have to read a review by some 12 year old "l33t kid". And I don't care if people call me a "n00b" which they usually say that because I have "b00bs" they will never get. I act on my own accord, I don't look to the media to know what's good and what isn't. And this game, is excellent!





2. Men Of War
Most definitely a sight for sore eyes. Also available on Steam, men of war is a direct control type multiplayer game. You can play single, which I prefer better, I like to beat the computer. But as far as the controls I like them, selecting allies and telling them where to go as opposed to trying to control an entire platoon (?) with your arrow or "W,A,S,D" keys. Most would think these controls are hard, but they aren't. If you know where you need to place your men, and you don't have A.D.D. meaning you can multi-task, you can play this game easily. You sometimes have to somewhat control one guy at a time, say you need to take out a tank, you'll need a soilder who has an anti-tank grenade, click him, and then the grenade that becomes highlighted and click somewhere below the tank and(BANG)  dead as a squirrel on the freeway. 


3.The Path


Last but most certainly not least, The Path. You guessed it available on Steam. The demo does not give you any gameplay whatsoever, it only displays the CAD class project-like graphics. Looks like it might be a bit scary though. Apparently, the motive here is to get to g-ma's house, and don't go off the path. I played this once, staying on the path. BORING! So I decided to break that rule and go off the path into the forest on the left, NOTHING, So I crossed the path to the forest on the right, I found 18 twinkly flowers and a burned tee-pee(tent, I just like to say tee-pee) before they teleported (maybe deported) me back onto the path and forced me onward to the last scene which is walking into the old hag's house. They did good I must admit with the 1990-esque graphics, if I were their CAD professor I'd give them a B-. So anywho, not much I can say about this game besides the fact that it is more like American Mcgee's Alice rather than what they claim to do, "Picking up where Silent Hill left off", I saw the preview video since they didn't give much depth in the game. It's called a "prologue" for crying out loud, if that doesn't scream "ALICE", I don't know what does. The goth type girls don't help them stay away from that either, but I'll give it a chance because it's an Indie game, and I like my Indie games. Which reminds me there is one called "Amnesia" that is supposed to come out in August I think. The preview video has got me jones-in.

My T-Shirt Designs

So I started a cafepress a while back and never really advertised it because I don't know why really. But now I am. I hope the $3-$4 commissions I get from these babies will pay for my very own printing press. That way I wouldn't have to charge more than $10-15 for a shirt, put $3 away for a charity (because I care) and the rest to replenish and pay for my Jag ;) So maybe you won't like the designs, and maybe you will. But at least you could buy a shirt or two :D lovies!!

Hello after 1000 years...

So I've started a weight loss resolution a total of... 8 weeks later... lol to start losing the weight that I have gained... 27 lbs. My phone is bleeping like crazy and it's making me nuts (too many texts) but I need to finish this blog. It has been so long and so little has happened. I lost my site, miserymeat.com and my government job (I'm now working in internet technical support), and I still don't have a man that I'm sure he's mine. Still with that navy guy where I don't know what's going on and am STILL convinced he's got some secret life. But I haven't really come out with it. I'm just stuck at the point where I've fallen in love with who I think may be the wrong person for me, but at least I haven't found anything out yet for sure. I met a guy who reminded me of him and I got all excited then to find out he has a girlfriend (there's that annoying bleep of my cell again, I'm going to turn it off... there, that's better). Anyway, so I'm starting a text/video blog of my venture to lose 30 pounds in 3 months. I'm already on a vegetarian diet and have been for quite a while, now I think I will go back to being strictly vegan, NO DAIRY AT ALL... I think the only effective way to do that is to make EVERYTHING I eat, no more eating out, no more delivery, unless it's my asiangrocer.com and veganessentials.com deliveries of course, MORE PROTIEN, and RUNNING, LOTS of running! So here, on the link panel, my new blog will show soon, of course you can still come here for my occasional rants, and blunders. So I'm off to losing weight and ruling the planet(not.) :-P

YAY new photos!

So I finally bought a new outfit(Sears and Body Central)the dress was on clearance with the belt for $6(Sears) and the earrings 3$,shoes $10,necklace $3, Bracelets free (Body Central)a $22 outfit all together. Yes, I'm a darn good bargain shopper. The trick is to wait to even LOOK at anything until there's about to be a season change. That's where the best deals happen because they're trying to get rid of things for the end of the current season to make room for the new things that come in next season. 90% of the time you'll find something you adore and you'll only pay a few dollars compared to a normal ticket price of 15$ or more. I've gotten a few really cute 6$ dresses just by waiting to shop for new clothes. I really wish I could find a retail job that pays as well as my new government job because I hate it where I'm at now. GAHHHH... it's so annoying! Anyway, here's my new pics.







I actually used these as my modeling portfolio pics, but of course they're not good enough for ANYONE.

Bush calls for approval in food aid

READ THE STORY, THEN TAKE A PEEK AT THE RIDICULOUS COMMENTS TO UNDERSTAND MY POST/REPLY

(BY UNANNOUNCED AOL USER)

If you all must know what the money is doing, is forming a strong alliance with these foreign countries, possibly where this money is going now, they have something we need over here. Maybe they have oil wells they don't know about? WHO KNOWS? Sometimes sending funds to countries in dire need of food,water,schools,clothing, and homes is necessary, but I forgot, most Americans are cruel,heartless, and only think of themselves. OBVIOUSLY you can afford a decent meal and home because you're posting online! These people don't have the luxury. We have public transport, funding opportunities,schooling and jobs. Americans are just too lazy to get off their A$$ and make it happen! Outside countries are torn from war and just the utter lack of resources. ENLIGHTEN YOURSELF PEOPLE AND LEARN HOW TO SPELL BEFORE YOU GO OFF WHINING ABOUT NOTHING IN GENERAL!
aol story
(BY ME OF COURSE)
It HAS to be a crime to be smart,attractive, and well-dressed all at once! Man, I should run for president. But like I was saying, money equals alliance, alliances either equal using any resources they didn't know they had, or it may be something negative like getting them to help them in the war on Iraq that has been unnecessarily going on for 100 years!(That's called an "exaggeration" people) I mean, when you think of it, tanks use gas, fighter jets use gas, mostly everything used in the war is using our own gasoline, so why are we out?! DUH! It's in the tank that just got blown up and now there's wasted fuel! Less fuel, higher demand, higher prices, inflation! I rememember gas being at least a dollar a gallon and I'm 24! Let's hope Hillary is like Bill, Bill would never pick a fight he knew he couldn't win. Our gas probably wouldn't be so damned high either.
