  My Friends, Rejoice!!

  I have just been informed that nut-job lawyer Jack Thompson has officially been denyed to practice law for life. This is without a doubt the headline of the year for gamers everyehere.

  For those who don't know, Jack Thompson is a rabid anti-gaming lawyer who has on multiple times tried to abolish and destroy videgames all together. His actions have led to a marred reputation, the resentment of many, and now his job. Good ridense.

  I will celebrate this momentous occasion by doing what I love, playing games. Let us relish in our triumph over suppressive jerks like Mr. Thompson and keep doing what we and many others love.

  Guess who?

  Well, it's sure been a while. First off, I turned fifteen two weeks ago, yay!

  Second, I am completely psyched for what is coming up this fall. Fallout 3, Resistance 2,The force unleashed and more. What's better is that resistance 2 is getting a kickass collector's edition for only twenty more bucks. If you need to see more head to GameInformer .com. I personally can't wait to see what else comes from the industry in the holidays.

  On another note, I got a ball python named snake (as in metal gear). He's really cool, but in reality he's my older brother's. I'd also like to try to organze a clan in TF2, so if anyone's interested give me a ring

  Well, that does it for now. See you chumps later

  My Troubled Gaming Past

  Over the past weeks i've realized that i've played some of the worst video games ever made.

  It all began when i was playing Neo Contra and suddenly memories of Army Men: Green Rogue came flooding in my head. Now that i think about it it was a mindlessly fun shooter, but i doubt i'd say so if i were to play it again.

  Next on my list is the Hulk movie game. When my brother first brought it home I thought "Holy crap!! I can play as Hulk?!" Too bad it ended up being the most broken disappointment in my life! The camera works against you, the combos are near impossible to pull so you end up simply mashing the punch button, and the bosses are complete pains in my butt.

  While I'm on the subject of horrible superhero games, let's talk about Superman. Tonight I saw a picture of The Man of Steel and I then remembered the shut-out memories of Superman 64. I originally played it when I was about eight years old but that didn't stop my complaints. First off, What the hell is this green fog?!! Is it supposed to be part of the game or is my TV dying? And next I find myself flying through rings. Why, may I ask, am i flying through rings? I'm supposed to be freaking Superman not a dog!! And most importantly, what the hell am I supposed to do in this barren wasteland?!!

  But enough of that. It's time to move on to some modern garbage on the 360. That's right, I'm talking about Fusion Frenzy 2. My gaming ignorant friend thought that i'd be a fun little party game like Mario party, but my god was he wrong. My biggest complaint is the multiplier cards. Ok picture this: You've just completed a horribly handled mini-game with convoluted controls and end up in first. You get Six points, and the guy in second has four. But wait! he uses a x4 multiplier card, so now he has sixteen points. WHAT THE LIVING HELL IS THAT ALL ABOUT?!!! It's like the only way to win is to have a freaking multiplier card! And guess what? that's the entire game right there! And on top of all that the announcer is a futuristic clown reject at best with the most annoying and monotonous voice ever. And you know what's weird? There's an option to mute him. I'm dead serious too. Now don't you think that's a bad sign when a game corrects it's own flaws?

  Well, I've got that out of my system, Thanks for reading and remember to stay the hell away from these games!!
