New fish for me!

August 27, 2008

Yep, I got two new beta’s and a nice little double-tank system for my desk for them!

So. You like them? I named them Poseidon and Athena because they are Asian fighting fish. Poseidon and and Athena, in ancient Greek mythology, were arch enemies. It started since Poseidon was kissing Medusa (before Athena made her a gorgon, in which she was beautiful as a nymph) in her temple. So yea, it didn’t turn out nice so they were huge enemies with eachother. Hope you liked the boring lesson in mythology!

Parents Let Kid Drop Out of High School to Focus on Guitar Hero.

August 27, 2008

Well. When I heard this. I nearly crapped myself. I mean, I love guitar hero, but really. Come on. This has to be bad parenting at it’s best. If your going to be a pro gamer, go into something a little more sponsered and profitable, such as Halo, CoD, Quake, etc. Not saying to do it as a normal career, though. Anyway, moving on the the story.

It started when he got guitar hero. He became attatched. He didn’t do school as much, etc. So basically, he kept nagging to his parents that school was useless to him. They finally gave in, but they still give him tutors. Yet, Guitar hero is number 1 priority.

It would be one thing if he was a prodigy in something such as athletics where he could easily do that for a backup, but this kid has nothing to fall back on.

That’s about it, this story is still circulating after about a month now.

New system, and a few new minigames.

August 27, 2008

The new 360 pro system is here. Not many special feature except it doesn’t have HDMI, but it has a 60 gigabyte hard drive. Source.

A new minigame that came out, that I’ve been waiting for for a while, is castle crashers. By the creators of Alien Hominid, it offers a cartoony yet very fun experience. Microsoft says:

Hack, slash, and smash your way to victory in this red-hot arcade adventure from the award-winning development studio, The Behemoth! Featuring hand-drawn characters, Castle Crashers® delivers unique hi-res illustrated visuals like nothing you’ve ever seen before.

Play with up to three friends locally or over Xbox LIVE® and discover the mind-boggling magic and mystery in the amazing world we have created just for you. Save your princess, defend your kingdom, and crash some castles! Play with more than 20 unlockable characters, 40 weapons to customize your hero, and an arsenal of combos and magical attacks to choose from.

I myself have not gotten the game yet, but when I do get a new points card, I’ll do a complete review of it.

That’s pretty much it for this post. See ya!
