    My Halo 3 Lithograph Has FINALLY Arrived, ALTMAN BE PRAISED!!!!

    (bonus points if you know what that means)

    on wednesday my Halo 3 Todd McFarlane (andGreg Capullo) Lithograph finally came i sent away for it on August 31 and got it December 16, thats 15 weeks, 107 days which is almost 1/3 of a year. i had to email them a few times but i finally got it.

    i just hope i can find a good enough frame for it.

    also that day i got Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 for an AMAZING price, i got it at staples on clearance (brand new) for get this $6.27. it had been marked down 4 times from $29.97-$19.97 than from $9.97-$7.47. and i get to the till and there is a clearance sale of 25% off and its $5.60 without tax.

    i called eb before i got it and they said it was i think $40 new and $29 used, i couldnt pass that deal up. im not too good at "tacticial" chooters like tom clancy's games but i think i can do it better than Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3 for gamecube.

    what else.OH i read the Dead space 2 article in the new gameinformer and it was amazing, im not going to write everything cause you should get the magizine so i will put some bullet points of what i found interesting.

    • you will be able to manuver and fight in zero g gravity, not just jumping from point to point.
    • set on a space station named SPRAWL which looks like the ishimura, which is located on saturns moons, and you will be in citys.
    • set 3 years after the first game and involvs stoping a government plot involving the marker.
    • AND a new gun called the javelin gun which shoots a javelin to pin necromorphs to walls, and the alt fire makes them explode or electracute them.
    • there WILL be 3 player ONLINE CO-OP, and they are working on online multiplayer.
    • and there might be more comics to add to the whole dead space lore.

    this is what the cover looks like i could only find it at eb games for $5.99, so go out and pick up a copy.

    what else, what else..... i beat AssassinsCreed a week ago and it was great, i dont have all 1000 yet but all i need to do is find lots of flags and kill 4 templars.

    thats it for now i think....yep.

    Another New Halo 3 Figure.

    yesterday i got a new Halo 3 figure at my local comic shop.

    SPARTAN HAYABUSA (WHITE)

    http://spawn.com/toys/product.aspx?product=3873

    this comes with the assault rifle and power drain, this particular figure i didn't find much wrong with it. the gun can be easily placed in the hands and look like like the pics, its well balanced and looks really great. not the things i found wrong were the chest armor is hard to remove because you have to remove the head cause there is a neck guard that goes all around so you cant pull it off, and the head was hard to put on again since the peg was loose. and the last thing i didn't like is there is no grenade they used to put them in but not any more.

    i got it for $15.75 with tax and came with 15 halo points, but the halo point program is over.

    in my last blog i said how bad Mirrors Edge was, well i was wrong i played Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 for like 15 minutes and it's WAY worse than mirrors edge. i read that it takes 100+ hours to get all 1000 gamerscore and i think you have to get certain items to certain girls to get that achievement.

    anyway i hereby remove Mirrors Edge from my bad games list and add DOAX2, and if you have $10 go for Mirrors Edge and not this cause ME is much muchbetter.

    if you don't know about the new Transformers War For Cyberton game yet here's the trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FE9RsGf_3eI

    optimus looks like he did in the game that came out on the ps2, and that game was better than the newer Transformer games.

    oh and here's the website- http://transformersgame.com/i cracked the code, and there are 2 days 23 hours and 5 minutes left. so something should happen Dec 15 at 4:00 pm.

    also Isaac Clarke WILL be coming in Dead Space 2 according to the new Gameinformer magazine on stands i think on the 14th.

    here is the cover

    i like the new suit despite what other people say, and i knew he wasn't dead. all nicole did was pounce on him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubG3N4ljwuoshe wasn't infected she was "crazy" as in writing on the walls like in the comics.

    so i think in the beginning of Dead Space 2 it will show Isaac fighting her, than using stasis (cause he didn't lose his powers) than getting the plasma cutter and cutting her limbs off.

    and i really hope all the DLC weapons, suites and all the ammo and stuff can be used in DS2 cause it would be a waste if you have to buy them again.

    OH OH OH it looks like there will be ANOTHER Batman game, and joker is back.

    Well i Beat Mirrors Edge.

    today i beat the last chapter of Mirrors Edge and i have to say this is one of my most HATED games next to Hitman Blood Money. it was hard as hell and i was playing on easy, the game would be alot better if you didnt get shot at all the time(and die after 5 shots).

    if your thinking of getting it DONT unless its between the price of $5 and $10 any higher than $10 dont.

    anyway i got 710 of 1250G and 28 of 50 Achievements.

    Yesterday i got a new Halo novel- Contact Harvest i got it at coles for $10.49 with tax.

    i also noticed that the book The Cole Protocol has been reduced in size to the size of the other halo novels.

    OH and Halo Evolutions is also out now for $18.99 canadian ($14.99 us) i hope to get that soon.

    if you havnt seen it yet here is the FIRST pic of Dead Space 2 it may or may not be isaac, cause he didnt really die at the end of the first game, he just got pounced on by nicole so i bet the beginning of DS2 isaac pushes her off and blastes her with the plasma cutter than curb stomps her body.

    and lastly i want to make a correction in my last blog, i said in this pic that the heads at the bottom were slasher heads but they are really a LEAPER head, you know the ones with the long scorpion like tail.

    and if you dont have Dead Space go out and get it, i saw it for $19.99 at blockbuster. and if you have it and havnt finished it well FINISH it.........hint hint
