Halo News, Shooters, and Xbox 360. Don't read this if you're a Sony fanboy.
I lied lolololololololololol

Haha! The new trailer is both late and a different game! It's GRAW to Shoot Me Again. Please check it out and rate/comment at http://youtube.com/watch?v=qx3AVQEarbI. In other news, Rainbos Six Vegas 2 is beast, in the sense that it's amazing and I loves it. Endwar looks to be really good, so I picked up a copy of the book to read while I'm waiting for all that voice command strategy goodness. I will eventually make a Rainbow trailer, but I had some technical problems with the videos I was using, got frustrated, and gave up on that one for now. No big deal though, I think this GRAW trailer is the best one yet. In gun related news, H&K finally unveiled officially the MR223 at IWA. I can't wait. I'm definitely gonna buy one IF they keep the price under $2000. Otherwise I'll buy the Noveske and I'll suffer through cleaning a direct impingement system.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2!
The new Rainbow is right around the corner! With new weapons, game modes, PEC options, and other crap, this should be the best game ever! I hope it blows Call of Duty 4 out of the water. I will make a Rainbow Six trailer as promised, but this week's quarter finals, so it won't be until next Saturday at the earliest. I'll try to have it up prelaunch though!

Gears
I made a gears of war trailer viewable at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pXyg-fTjyA. The music is Enter Sandman by Metallica. In other news, I'm really looking forward to Rainbow Six Vegas 2. In the mean time I'm probably gonna buy Rock Band. I'm also getting my class ring on friday (I may post pictures next week). That's about all happening here. Oh yeah, I hit the 4th prestige mode today (CoD4)!

Short update.

Sorry for no blog updates or new videos recently, but I'm swamped with schoolwork. I won't **** and moan to you about it, but that's the reason. I'll try to make a video this weekend when I have some time. Also, please check my video in the post below. I understand Splinter Cell: Double Agent is old news, but the video is still pretty damn good. When some more cideos come out I'll definitely make a video for Rainbow Six Vegas 2. Until then...

New Trailer

I've made a new trailer and posted it on Youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOwLBbN2GkQ. It will also be on Gamespot soon. It's for Splinter Cell Double Agent. I used a lot of the earlier trailers, so it shows some stuff that isn't in the final game. I think the next trailer I'm gonna do will be for Oblivion, but that's gonna be difficult. Oh well. Off to Call of Duty 4!

Edit: I'm gonna try to embed the video right here.

Youtube

I've overhauled my Youtube proflie. Check it out at http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=odstderek. I like it, mostly because it's brutal.

In Call of Duty 4 I've always cared about my accuracy rating. I was up to 21.75%, and I never snipe. Then I realized it had gotten to the point where I wouldn't shoot unless I was certain I would hit and kill the target. This made me get much worse with my k/d spread. Now I've learned that nobody cares about accuracy, so I'm using LMGs and SMGs spraying like a mad man now. My k/d ratio per game has gone up markedly, even when I just use the M16. Taking riskier shots returns kills. Awesome.

I've started writing a story based on the events of Oblivion. They take place after the main storyline and the Dark Brotherhood quests. It's from the perspective of a new admittee to the Dark Brotherhood who's struggling to survive in a murderer's world. Let me know if you're interested!
