Testing things out

Well, I am broke now so

TIME TO EXPERIMENT WITH TECHNOLOGY!

Uploaded first VLOG to YouTube about a half hour ago.

Not giving a link out though...it's pretty horrid.

After a couple of months of doing the VLOGs then MAYBE I'll link to one on here but not before then. No sense in posting horribly shot video.

Gaming-wise I've been pretty productive lately; plowed through Halo 4 last night (into this morning) and got all the way thru ep 2 and 3 of the Walking Dead.



Halo 4 = Good but at times felt fragmented in it's overall story




The Walking Dead Ep 1 - 3 =  Fantastic series so far. Based loosely on the comic series of the same name, this game provides great writing; each episode getting darker and darker...and the decisions becoming less and less easy to make.  I would NOT suggest plowing through all of this series in one day though...unless you wanna be thoroughly depressed. Still...depressing mood of the game aside, The Walking Dead thus far is looking to be one of my top played games of 2012.

Done....for now


An with the final giveaway over with, this bit of madness is at an end.

Thanks to all who participated in the daily giveaways and spread the info about the giveaways.

Though I didn't get to 100 entries total over six days, 45 entries is still pretty respectable, and it gave me an excuse to donate 100 bucks to the Child's Play Charity.


If you want to give to a charity this year, I highly suggest it be Child's Play, the people who run it are honest an respectable, an generally don't harass you to donate every year like every other frigging charity.

I am gonna try to make this a yearly thing now, this year was sorta a test run.  Next year it'll be more badass and some of the kinks will be worked out. I am also throwing around the idea of running a game marathon but don't wanna say too much about that just yet.

An with that I bid you all adieu an Happy Holidays!

Giveaway for Nov 30th - Call of Duty - Black Ops 1




Today's giveaway is for a copy of Call of Duty - Black Ops 1

Black Ops is a great game with a great story. I finished this game about two or three days ago and I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed the crap out of it. 

The storyline of Black Ops will suck you in as you fight in Cuba, Vietnam, etc, trying to track down some rogue Russians bent on world domination

Game mechanics/controls are about on par with previous Call of Duty games and yes...there is a huge part of the game dedicated to multiplayer...per usual

Though the single player campaign is only about 6 or 7 hours long, I highly suggest you try this game out, as those 6 hrs are a thrill ride.

So get to entering! Read the rules, and tweet back at me!

UPDATE: @Acidbather won this one, check back here for the next & final giveaway
