GTA4...it's purely AWESOME!

Yes, by now we all know it's true. The games story is brilliant, gameplay is awesome, and characters are frankly...hilarious.

What I like to bring up is if you noticed already and if you have don't bother telling me it already was, I've kinda been off the internet the last few days due to GTA4. But if you have seen the movie Behind Enemy Lines you will notice a similarity between Niko and one of the characters Sasha.

Meet Sasha:

Just look at the face, not to mention the clothes.You can see the hairstyle and facial hair is similar to that of Niko, and the track suit is similar to that you can get for Niko (which is my personal favourite outfit.) I've actually created a new avy to establish the fact

I'm about 75% done the entire game, and almost finished the story fully, only 2 or 3 missions left I think. I love the fact, that one of the challenges is to shoot 200 pidgeons all over Liberty City and Alderney. I also rarely use vehicles, most of the time I take taxi's, and I rather take motorcycles than cars when I do have to drive. Now I don't want to spoil anything for people so I won't say anything specific about the story.

I'll also try and start to post a video walkthrough of every mission in the game to help anyone out, that is once I finish the game the first time.

I got GTA: IV...the Special Edition

Yes, I splurged on the Special Edition of the game, it cost over $100 but I didn't really care. Anyway, I wanted to show the stuf that came with the game in this next line of pics.



The whole GTA:IV: Special Edition set.



the game and it's manual



The Black Safety deposit box it all came in.



The golden lined duffle bag



The artbook that came with it.



Inside the game artbook...:surprised: Niko Bellic



The nice boxart that everything came in.

It also came with a soundtrack of songs that are on the different radio stations. But I saw no point in showing that. I still say it's a good deal to get all this plus GTA:IV for about $105.

Man...I'm a Wow addict again.

So, after 372 days of not playing WoW. I decided to pick it up as a game to play in between GTA4, Haze and MGS4. If you take a look at my little X-Fire game card I have at the top of my blog. You will notice that this week alone I've played it for 33 hours. Those 33 hours have been toward making 7 different characters, deleteing 3 and keeping 4 plus the one I had from first playing it last year. So now I have:

1. lvl. 22 Blood Elf Mage
2. lvl. 14 Blood Elf Priest
3. lvl. 14 Dwarf Hunter
4. lvl. 14 Undead Warlock
5. lvl. 7 Tauren Warrior

These 5 characters are split between 3 servers, one on the Gurubashi PvP server, one on the Blades Edge normal server, and 3 on the Moonrunner normal server. I plan to make at least a character of every race and make them a cla$$ most suitable for their race. Blood Elves are going to be magic cla$$es (Paladin, Mage, Priest, Hunter, Warlock), Orcs a warrior cla$$, Trolls a hunter cla$$ Taurens are warriors, Undead are good rogues. As for Allience, Humans make good warrior/paladins, Dwarves are good hunters, Gnomes are good magic users (Mage, Warlock), Night Elves are very good rogues, and Draenei are also good magic users. I also want to make sure I have every cla$$ used.

If you want to quest together just ask, I'll get some pics of my characters to show them because I can

CoD4 vid

My friends in school always like it when I record some CoD4 gameplay of myself doing pretty good. So, I did it a few times. This video was somewhat of a fun one. I had been doing poorly all match due to Juggernoobs and random grenades. It was near the end of the match when I just had enough dying and began to kill. I went on a ten kill streak which only took a minute and a bit. I was on my 4th Prestige lvl.11 at the time. I called it The Comeback cause it was a comeback of sorts, too lose all match then to comeback to win it in the end along with having the second place on the team is good. Hope you like the vid, there's surely more to come.

What a Deal!

I know when I see a deal, but man this was a deal. Tonight, a local grocery store had a tax free night so I went up with my mother. First place I went was the Elcetronics department, and they had a bin of discount PC games. So I took a look at the games and I see The EA Warfare Collection for $10. Now this collection has Medal of Honor: Allied Assault and Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault in it, along with Battlefield 1942, and it's expansion, Road to Rome. It also included Battlefield Vietnam. When I went to the checkout I found out it was only $5, which is an amazing deal even though they are a few years old. But the are still very good. I'm going to tell installation will be a pain, just take a look

the discs

Now that's a lot of discs
