So as you guys may know I went to see Dream Theater this last Sunday and it was my first concert ever and I have 2 words.
F**KING AWESOME!
Seriously, I arrived early at K.B. Hallen (the place of the concert) with my friends, so we might get a chance to stand front row and guess what, we got onto front row.
The concert started with the 3 first bands;
- Unexpect
- Bigelf
- Opeth
And they were really good, but of course, nothing beats Dream Theater, they came on and I started recording on my camera. It was the most epic thing I have ever seen, check my video out:

Simply AMAZING.
_______________________________________________________
The one thing I had wished for the concert was, is that they would play my favourite song, Constant Motion, they have been in like 50+ cities on this tour and only played it like 5 times so the chances were small... BUT THEY F**KING PLAYED IT! If you dont know it, find it and give it a listen, the instrumental/solo section is amazing, sick bass, epic solo and awesome drums and a wicked keyboard solo. But because its my favourite song of all time, I HAD to record it:
_______________________________________________________
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYxU_khYX5g
Best thing EVER.
_______________________________________________________
Well thats it... OH WAIT NO!
At the end of the concert I got John Petrucci's F**KING PICK! He dropped like 5-10 around the front rows and I managed to get one! OH YEAH!.
This is my best life experience ever... Thanks a bunch Dream Theater, hope to see you soon again.-Orakk

Hey guys, as some of you may know, I have started a thrash-metal band with my friends like 1 month ago where I play drums. We have played covers until now and we did just record a song (with very basic recording gear, but what ever
) but please check us out:http://www.myspace.com/titanwrath
Tell me what you think of it
.And by the way if anyone can make an awesome logo, please tell me because our logo is so stupid right now
.-Orakk
BTW: I am going to Copenhagen next week to see Dream Theater with the band and I am looking forward to that, I hope its going to be amazing

First of before anyone ask: "Where the **** have you been man?" I am going to defend myself :-). I have been away from GameSpot alot of the past months because I didnt find the site interesting anymore and I still dont like the new look of it, so I am not here that often, but I am still here so no worries and I am also here to wish you merry christmas, so:
Merry Christmas!
Hope you'll have an awesome month of joy!

So the past 3 days have been E3. Nice stuff
. But I only got to watch the Sony conference live. I didn't get home in time for the Microsoft and Nintendo ones. So I only got the emblem for Sony :'(. But what so ever, I watched the Microsoft one later on and watched some of the (boring) Nintendo conference. Anybody else agree it sucked? Anywho, the Microsoft conference was really amazing and the Sony one was also great! The new movie buying thing on both consoles look extremely good and I bet there will be bought TONS of movies. The avatar thing for the 360 looks fine too. Especially the achievement thing about it. For example if you do something great in a game, lets say gears of war, your avatar could unlock the chainsaw rifle for example. That is just genius and the second entry in the gears of war series looks really good too so I cant wait!!!Another story I want to tell about is the Aqua comeback. Which was once named the best pop band in the world and I totally agree. And so I went to a danish concert, Green Concert, to see these pop legends come back. And they were truely amazing. Old songs were outstanding as always and news songs is sure to become new top hits!
Check out my recorded video to see them performing their 3 top songs. Cartoon Heroes, My oh my and Dr. Jones:
Another little story is my leg. I was in a play area with my little cousin and I had to take a slide down something wierd and on the way down I fell out (...) and landed on my right leg. And ehm, I kind of broke it, it isn't broken but, it hurts REALLY much so I cant really do something good the next couple of days which is fine because... Lord of the Rings Online arrived! **** YEAH!!! I must say, that game is terrible at first because there is so much to do, but now 10 levels in, this game is a masterpiece. God its good. I will be gaming this a lot the next couple of days I am sure
.Well, thanks for reading this blog
.Be happy!

I got myself a copy of GTA IV this week and I have been playing the **** out of that game. Its awesome. The singleplayer stands out because its of course a sandbox and also because of the story. In the previous GTA games the story was stupid. This time around its detailed, fun, grim and gruesome with very likeable characters. Its just so much fun to play. And the multiplayer is even as good as the single player because you can play the whole world with your friend or you can play from deathmatch to cops and crooks, there is like 10 different multiplayer modes. Its soo awesome
. I will play this game a lot the next 4 weeks I am sure .I also cancelled my order from the danish store where I ordered Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar and then I ordered it from another danish place and after 10 minutes I got a mail saying the game had been sent. Awesome
. I downloaded the trial of it and I am sure I want to be the Guardian Class now because they are soo cool .Anyhow, I think thats it for now. Ciao!

By the way, listen to this song, its awesome: Hess Is More - Ssshhhh (Radio Edit)

Okay, this day can't get any more bad right now.
Well, I started the day by going to school, where I had exams, grr, and then I went to the dentist to find out I need bracers. I was like, alright then because he only said the upper part of my mouth but, then 30 minutes later he tells me after the research on my teeth, I need on the top part and the lower part. Great ey? I then went to the glass shop, because my mom wants to get my eyes checked for some reason, she said its been too long between my last check (they dont do it all the time at my school, only, like each 4th year, its stupid) and then we went there.
I got my eyes checked, my right eye was more than perfect, she it was one of the best eyes she has ever seen, well well, I was happy then we went on to my other eye. And, slam, it was below average in looking. So yep, I need STUPID glasses now which will arrive next week. Great! (Ass-balls)
Then I went home to find out I got an email from the place I bought LotRo: SoA Gold Edition where they said they dont have it at the moment so I have to wait even more! ASS!
But the only thing today that was good is that I got a ticket to the movie: The Happening. So I went to see it tonight with my friend and you know what? That movie SUCKED!
This day is the worst of my life. Period.
-Orakk
EDIT:
I am just scared of my reputation. Over here, you cant get girls unless you are cool + fun + good to talk to + more than average looking. I am just at these points. But, I am sure that glasses AND bracers are gonna bring me down a lot. Plus I am moving school after this summer with 5 other schools colliding. A lot of fine girls there too, but picky and my GF is going good but I think she'll leave me because of my appereance. But I hope she will keep me because we talk soo good to each other but she likes good looking guys and I will go down a lot so I am scared of this whole situation.

Hi everyone!
Today in the morning I went out to get the post and I was all hyped because I wanted my damn lord of the rings online game. I got the post, and thats when things wierd! I opened the box and it had a superman shirt inside, what the hell?!? Then I called the post dude to come and see this, he apologized, took the box, went over and got another one, I was hyped, and when he came back he didn't have anything more than a damn letter. That was the 1 only unlucky thing for today.
I went to bath etc. got some breakfast, brushed my teeth, and went to school, there our teacher didn't come, then we just talked the whole lesson yay! Then we had english class. Our teacher came but said we had to go to the computers today to do some work, yay! Then we continued the day, we got another computer lesson and a double sports lesson. I returned home, went to GameStop and got Oblivion, Game of the year edition it was discounted by 50% (OH YEAH!). Went home and my girlfriend arrived, so I put my game away for now. We went upstairs and she said something like this (since its in danish and I dont recall 100% it might not be TOTALLY correct) but it was like this:
"Thomas, we have been together for a looong time. We have only kissed, nothing more (thats when I thought, whats the problem and she continued) so I thought we might take this a step further (I got some thoughts there) so why might we not just do it? (jesus christ)
I was stunned. Stunned I tell you. I woke up like 5 seconds later and said: "D, d, dd, dd, doo, do it?!? She answered: "Yeah, you're not ready?" I answered a hell of a lot quick there: "I am, I am! Lets do it!" and we didn't talk for the next 50 minutes. And we did it. Yeaaah. First time, I cant believe it. Well that was 3 lucky things (easy school, discount game, did it) and 1 unlucky one (no other game, damn!)
I cant recall being so lucky in 1 day. Well, I guess thats it for now folks, thanks for reading my looooong blog
.Later!

Well, I am too pumped about LotRo: SoA (Lord of the rings online: Shadows of Angmar) and I about 30 minutes ago ordered the gold edition of the game. It should include a free mount to ride 10 levels before you actually should be able to ride one (35 is the requirement to get a mount, like its 40 in WoW, but this special one requires me to be level 25 only, no costs at all too!) so it should be awesome. It also comes with a (shiny) steel case, which is also awesome and it also includes all the books (updates) up to book 12, where book 13 just got released. (only 1 download, yay!) So when I get the game, I might be able to play it within 1 hour. Yessir!
It should also include some in-game housing items. A unique floor mat for when you enter the house, some lights aswell and some other thing I cant remember
. And I've made a massive thread on the forums with 20 questions and they got answered by an awesome guy whom actually made the game look even better. So that made my hyped. Then I looked on youtube for some other cool things, I found, PvMP (Player vs. Monster Play) which is LotRo's answer to PvP. When you get to level 10 you unlock MP and then you start as a high level bad guy. Then you fight high level good guys and thats the PvP in this game. It should be so fun to play. You can even earn destiny points (in WoW its honor points) which allows you to unlock different bad guys, mountain troll etc. Cant wait to swing my club at small hobbits .I also found out I can run the game over the recommended level, soo, yahoo!
The package also includes 45 days of free gameplay time instead of 30 so thats a plus too!
The gold edition costs $45 while the normal one costs $20 (Wow, I just saw a big difference!) anyhow, I think the extra money spent is worth it. I mean, I am a die hard Tolkien fan and I haven't tried this yet. Not even the trial! So I am taking a big risk by just buying the game like that.
I am going to be a dwarf defender since I love to tank
.
But I cant wait so if you would excuse me, I want to find some more awesome things about this game!
Later!

Yep, I am thinking about getting LotRO: SoA (Pretty long name eh?!?) or also known as Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar (Holy sh*t thats a long name :O) because it just simply looks amazing. I know AoC just came out but, I think this came will be more like my taste. It looks like to have a pretty big bunch of roleplaying parts in it which I like. Especially the house option. So I will look forward at getting this game in about 2 weeks and I will then get the One ring to rule them all!
Oh yeeeah!

This week I basically emptied my wallet. I bought a whole bunch of stuff and I post a picture below and the I put numbers in the pictures so I can say what it is later down:
1. My old PSP broke so I bought a new one, with GTA: Vice City Stories and it freakin rocks!
2. I got myself a goldfish. His cheeks are like bubbles so he looks really funny.
3. I got a progress award from my school for Technology (Yep, I am the best at handling computers at my school!)
4. Manager of the Month on www.schoolsfl.com.
5. A practice pad when I cant drum. (In car etc.)
6. A freakin drum set! Booha!
So thats what I bought and I cant buy anything for the next month, thats for sure
. Ehm, anyway, I got to Act 3 out of 5 in Titan Quest. Yeh, thats right, my game timer says I've been playing for 50+. This game rocks hard!I haven't got any other stuff to say, so this is it.
Thanks for reading and have a nice day forward!

Yay, I finally completed Titan Quest; with its expansion pack. Yes! Only took me 32 hours and 1 minute to complete it all! I died a total of 102 times but, I killed a total of 11867 monsters, where the mightiest one were Typhon - Bane of the Gods. He was pretty bad-ass. Typhon is the original Titan Quest's last boss, where Hades is the expansion's last boss. But Typhon is way harder!
Anyway, I started a new character on normal, to complete the game again, this time as a mage, or to be specific, an Evoker. Its the mastery Earth mixed with Dream. My first character I just completed the game with is a Champion, a Warfare mastery combined with Nature. And I must say, the Evoker is really fun, compared to my old character. The Evoker I made is able to send a bomb into an area and kill everybody in a radius, and I also have a pet, as a tank, so I sit back and cast spell without even getting hit, because my pet is tanking. Later I am going to get another pet, so I have 2 at one time and the new one is able to confuse monsters so they start attacking illusions they see. I am going to kick so much butt with my pets!
Anyway, I guess thats it for now. God Titan Quest is a good game!

I bought Titan Quest with its expansion over Steam some time ago and I must say, this game hauls a**! Seriously, even though its an exact clone of Diablo 2, its still pretty impressive and it just improves on all areas. The graphics are better than Diablo 2, actually, there is ragdoll included which is really good by the way, more items, oh yeah and much more cool changes. The only thing that seems to bother me is that the online doens't have the tool that allows players to have a friend list. So so get your friend in a game takes some time but, when you're playing together and talking over Skype, its insane fun.
Okay, in some time I will make a review for the gold edition which is the one I bought to include more details about the game.

As a reply to my last post, I know bought 5 games instead of 4 with Steam. I followed my plan, buying these games:
- S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Shadow of Chernobyl
- Titan Quest
- Titan Quest: Immortal Throne
- Audiosurf
Now, this is only 4 games but, I tripped over this game too:
- Geometry Wars
For only $4, so I said, why not? So right now I am downloading all these new delightful games and I hope I used my money the right way, I mean, Epic just joined Steam with all their Unreal games.
So that adds to a total of $54. Awesome!
Anyway, I think thats it and I'll say bye bye again!

Okay, so right now I have around $60 I need to spend on something. Since I am in China at the moment I cant just go down the street to find a game store, so I need to purchase them online with Steam or something like that. Its pretty cool actually, I walked down the street to school some days ago and I just found 100 Chinese money. Thats about $14 just right to me, so naturally enough, I bring it home and add in to my other collection of money. To much money! Anyhow, I need to spend them on something right? So I went to Steam to see which games I don't have (Have a lot!) and choose the ones I would like. So I found these 3 games which add to a total of $50 so I still have around $10 left to whatever I need. (Taxi's etc.) Anyway, heres the games:
- Titan Quest Gold
- S.T.A.L.K.E.R
- Audiosurf
Do you guys think these games are worth getting? I mean, I were a big fan of the Diablo series and Titan Quest looks exacly the same, just with new graphics, monsters etc. Only for $20 I get both of the games. The original and Immortal Throne. S.T.A.L.K.E.R sounds awesome too, but old and my computer can run it really nice, I checked at Systemrequirementlabs and its over recommended. Awesome! And I also checked out Audiosurf (The demo) and it freakin' rocks. So, you guys, out there, fellow gamespotters. Are these games worth getting?

So yeah, a little update shouldn't hurt anybody, so I just wanted to write down the things I've been doing and what I think about things and stuff like that. Anyway, a blog is underway!
So yeah, I like starting my sentences with that, so thats why I use them 24/7, anyway, the past weeks I haven't been doing anything special really. Just watching some movies, going to school, you know, normal stuff. So yeah, I've watched Rambo IV which sucked hard because its just a movie with way to much violence and nothing else. I would not recommend it, because, its just way to violent, so maybe I should call in a slasher-action movie or something. Anyhow, I also just watched Juno, and that was a really good movie. If you didn't know, its about a girl at the age of 16 which gets pregnant and then you follow her to see how it goes. Its really great and I would really recommend it to anyone who likes movies with emotions involved. Besides that I have just been going to school and making some new videos for my youtube account.
I have made 2 new movies the past weeks:
Its just some movies I made when I am really bored, so dont expect them to have a meaning, its just some stuff I made for the awesome game, Garrys mod. Its like a sandbox game made from the Half-life 2 engine and I have the paid version. It rocks!
But I am going out on a ski trip tomorrow and I am really looking forward to that, but besides that. Nothing special have happened the last weeks!
And if you are a really good friend, please rate my movies on youtube and throw a comment at them!
