That moment...
...when you realize you haven't been active on Gamespot in years, especially when it used to be an "important" part of your life.
Hope all the friends I made here over the years are doing well. -

YouTube, Black Ops, and Hauppauge HD PVR
Yah... wow, it's been quite a while since I last blogged. As I'm sure you all well know, life has a tendency of getting in the way of hobbies such as blogging and video games. Even though I've been visiting the site regularly to view news, videos, etc., I haven't been actively posting in the last couple months, but that will certainly be changing; I really miss interacting with that niche in the community. I definitely can't promise I'll be posting two to three hundred times a day like I was a few years ago - those days are gone and probably never coming back. My main focus now is pursuing my undergraduate degree, and unlike in those early days of high school, I actually have to put forth an effort to achieve high marks, making it impossible to post in such volume. I understand that many here may have lost interest in my blog due to a lack of updates, and thus I don't believe initially I'll be getting much feedback, but hopefully with time I can pique your interest once again.
Though I neglected to make a blog last month, February 5th was my fifth anniversary on Gamespot! As cliche as it may sound, I can't believe it's been that long. To be honest, I don't even want to know how much time I've spent collectively on the site in the last five years - over 50,000 posts, at a maximum of two posts per minute (which certainly almost never happened), plus all the time I've spent lurking, watching videos, etc... the math is pretty staggering. I'll leave you to figure that out on your own. Here's to another five?
The only game I've really put a significant amount of time into since I went AWOL from my blog last summer (other than a stint to 85 in World of Warcraft in the fall) has been Call of Duty: Black Ops. I've enjoyed playing multiplayer in the Call of Duty series since Call of Duty 4, and have gotten pretty good at the games over the past three or so years. Because I've been a part of the expansive Call of Duty community on YouTube for awhile now, I believe I can use what's brought me success in the games to help others improve their game as well; thus, I bought a Hauppauge HD PVR video recorder to record my gameplay and commentate it to be put on YouTube. I've only done one commentary (link here, please check it out!), but when make more, they'll be posted on my YouTube channel here. I don't really expect to get a ton of subscribers due to the large number of already popular commentators on the site, but I think it will be a fun hobby for me that I can develop over time.
With the Hauppauge HD PVR, I'll also be able to upload some high-quality gameplay to Gamespot - not only Call of Duty, but whatever else might be interesting, so stay tuned for that. Many thanks for checking out my blog, and I look forward to hopefully reconnecting with some of you on the site in the upcoming months! -

Call of Duty: Black Ops
"Great multiplayer" Despite a short campaign, Black Ops' new game modes and competitive multiplayer set it apart from others in the genre. Continue »

Black Ops TDM Clip
Just a quick gameplay clip for you guys - I would love to upload more, but it's difficult due to Gamespot's minuscule upload cap.

Vroom
My camera was in the car with me, so I had to do it. I'll upload a true 0-60 some other time... Pontiac G6 GXP, street edition, 265 HP V6 VVT.
