Duke Nukem Forever... Delayed... Again.







Take-Two has yet again delayed Duke Nukem Forever. No, seriously. They claim it will release internationally on June 10th, and in North America on June 14th. So we can expect it sometime in 2012, right after the world ends.

Gadhafi Attempts To Stop Invasion With 'Cease Fire'




After the UN declared open war against Gadhafi enforcing a 'no fly zone'... the response given was a 'Cease Fire' by Gadhafi in an attempt to avoid getting annihilated by the cumulative forces of the world.

However, Nato isn't having any of it... they're ignoring the cease fire, and are going to continue their assault on this dictator.

Should be some more news in the coming days, keep your ears to the ground!

Bully Gets Taste of His Own Medicine

Hey guys. Busy day busy day. However, in my epic adventures around the interwebs, I did stumble upon an interesting video:

(give it a second to load)

So this guy fought back and you want to know what happened? He got suspended. After being harassed like that, and simply defending himself... he got suspended. What of the other kid? Well, he got a slap on the wrist.

Anyway, at least justice was served.

Today I decided to relive one of the classics... and that is Monty Python's Life of Brian. I've always been a big fan of British humour, and Monty Python is in my opinion the best example. If any of you haven't seen the Monty Python movies, you really should... because you're missing out.

Any other fans out there?

Georgia Tech Wants Robots to Touch You



I have a friend who goes to Georgia Tech who told me to check out this video... and was reminded again to check it out when I was surfing the web. This is a program they're working on over there that involves the psychology of how people react to the presence of and interaction with a robot. The idea is especially with dealing with children, if no attempts are made to make the robot feel 'comforting' then it will be unable to provide proper health care.

I don't know about you guys, but AI is scary enough to me as it is... making it touch me softer won't make it any less scary in my opinion.

In before Skynet.

Also, yes that is an XBox 360 Kinect that the robot is using to 'see' people.

Tsunami hits Japan After A Massive Earthquake!

+

The most powerful earthquake in recorded history has hit Japan and triggered a devastating tsunami. Cars, ships and buildings have been swept aside by a massive wall of water after the reported 8.9 magnitude earthquake.

The official body count is up to 60, however Japanese police were reported to have seen as many as 200-300 bodies in the port city of Sendai.

My heart goes to Japan in this time of crisis, I wish nothing but quick recovery for these brilliant people! I'll keep you guys posted with additional details.

Dragon Age 2: First Impressions



So I received my copy of Dragon Age II yesterday, and I figured I'd share with you guys my first impressions. Expect a full review once I feel like I have explored enough to share one.

Combat: Way improved. It feels fluid and smooth, not slow and clunky at times like DA: Origins did. Abilities actually seem to mean something this time around, and they're all very distinct visually.
UI: Vastly improved. Inventory system was completely overhauled (thank science)... everything is smooth and clean. The whole menu experience has become streamlined now, and pleasant to look at. Talents and abilities are laid out in a much more sensible manor, and actually make sense to look at.
Characters: Right off the bat, I immediately loved the characters I'm dealing with here. It seems like they've received much more effort to become believable, and I actually cared what they had to say. The new 'speech wheel' they stole from mass effect was a huge improvement as well. Also, having a main character that actually speaks makes the experience infinitely better.

As for the story, I'm not far in, so I can't rightfully comment, but from everything I've seen, I'm impressed.

That's all for now, expect a full review later!

I'm better! (At least mostly)



Thanks for being patient guys... I seem to have recovered... mostly, from the bit of food poisoning I had. The last thing I can remember eating beforehand was a burger from Harvey's. Yeah... but just a tip, if you ever get food poisoning (and you know you have it) don't try to eat, or you'll just throw it up. Also, drink, but small sips of water, and consistently. I ended up losing my voice for a bit due to dehydration. And sleep. I ended up sleeping like 70% of each day I was sick for (3 days).

It was hell, but now I return to you, healthy! I shall continue posting in full force tomorrow when I can get all my affairs in order. Thanks for the patience again!

Sunday, March 6, 2011

Sick.

Hey guys. Sorry for no post tonight.. I seem to have food poisoning and have been in terrible pain for the last day! It sucks... I hope I get better soon. When I'm well and better again expect lots of posts to make up for lost time.

Thanks,

I have been told by a common acquaintance that you fellow brethren may possibly have a fancy for a pocket monster that hails to the alias 'Mudkips'.

Lets take a look back at some of the memorable quotes:



“Most of the time, and this includes naps, I’m an F18 bro, and I will destroy you in the air and deploy my ordnance to the ground. There’s a new sheriff in town and he has an army of assassins.”


“If you borrowed my brain for five seconds, you’d be like, ‘Dude! Can’t handle it, unplug this bastard!’ It fires in a way that’s maybe not from, uh… this terrestrial realm.”


“I’m different. I have a different constitution, I have a different brain, I have a different heart. I got tiger blood, man.”


"The run I was on made Sinatra, Flynn, Jagger, Richards, all of them, just look like droopy-eyed, armless children."

“Dying is for fools, amateurs.”

"Tiger blood will drip from my veins in my quest. Defeat is not an option. She is an absolute traitor and she must be banished. She will be living under a bridge, toothless and confused."

Hidden Web Gem



Many think that Michael Jacksons' "Thriller" was the best of all his songs... however, I happen to think this is his best written/choreographed of all his songs.

Anyone else nostalgia when they watch this?

It was such a sad day when he was taken from us.
