DAS Keyboard came in the mail a few days ago and I'm currently typing on it now.
It's pretty loud but it's a really good keyboard if I say so myself. Brought it at a gamers lounge and some customers were complaining on how loud it was. It sounds like this: Although it sounds a lot louder without the mic filter. But you can still hear it. |

Hahahahhaha
HAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHA Fuck you Olive Garden! I don't have to work on Valentines day! And even if you want to call me in. I got all of my phones tied up. No, I don't have a girlfriend that I am gonna be spending time with. And no, I am not coming into work even IF you get in touch with me. Instead; I am going to be blowing up cars online and then killing internet dragons later that evening. I worked Valentines day two years in a row (Both as 13 hour doubles with no breaks) and all I have to say is: Kiss the fattest part of my ass Olive Garden.

This is a very difficult question to answer because either I can make a big post explaining what I look forward to videogames. Or I can just point to a trailer and say "Something like this". It's nothing really anyone can't answer repetitively and honestly. I really don't know. Ive been known to play games that are really "Out there" and a week later I'm hooked on something else. But I guess as long as the game itself is fun and a lot of people enjoy it. Thats all that really matters. Phoenix: Where the hell have you been? |

So I have been working on and off on this and so far I -really- like this kit. However, the support for this is slowly fading as the next patch is coming out soon. The beta came out in January and so far it's getting a lot of praise.
So right now. Yes, this is going to be an FPS still. But with some twists involved that fits with the Megaman theme -without- it being megaman. I made a few mods as tests on UT3 and I got a buster gun that is working. But it looks ugly as sin. But the mechanics works and it's incredibly broken. So I'm not set well with sharing that just yet. The one thing I am having an issue with is making powerups for it. I tried asking for help on the forums last week and one guy helped me out a bit on it. But the problem is that right now it's not really reliable until I can get powerup effects and whatnot. But at least I got one effect for the charged gun! Ugly weapon and effect. But an effect nonetheless! As for a map; I found someone who shares the same idea as I do at CSU and him and I have been getting together on off days to kinda make the layouts and whatnot. All I can say is that we spent about 20 hours working on it and we are not even halfway done with the damn simple map we were gonna test stuff in. But I am learning a lot and hope to share stuff with you guys later this year. |

This has to be a sign. Right?
So, today at work I pretty much had it up to my neck in stress. I'll try to keep this story short because I know how I am when I go into detal so I'll list the event in bullet points. - I took control of the floor. Half of servers were on so it was my job to seat guests to their tables. Meanwhile, all of them were bitching that they were not let off so they had to stick around and continue serving tables. - Everyone mad at me because I sat them. My response: Too bad. Pick it up. *Walk off* - I start standing up when people start talking shit to me. But the usual responce was "Oh, you don't like money?" - One server, who was not even on the clock. Was embarassing me saying that I was "Good at seating two to three tables in a row" and how stressful it was to have someone like me on the team. Keep in mind. I am one of the BEST in the team. And with good scores and compliments to back it up. - He starts making gestures at me and I politely tell him to not do that. He continues to do so and after telling him two more times to stop. He wanted to pressure it further by doing the same thing. Just to piss me off. - So that was when I told him that the next time he is on. I will GUARANTEE that he would be sat three tables at the same time. That was when things got elevated. - He said that he would not make promises and that "He will come and find me" meanwhile esclating into a higher more angrier voice. Meanwhile; I immedietly went to my boss and told him that the server was threatening me. After which, the boss threatened back that he would call the cops on both of us (I didn't escalate nor do anything). - Had to write up a statement before I had to leave. Mentioned that I do not feel safe with threats being made at work. So here I am. And here are my cards. - First off, I will NOT return to work until the matter is delt with. And I have, at least, have this on my side. Sadly though, and I hate to say this but most of the people there are racist. So I know this is on their side. And 90% of the people there hate me for stupid shit reasons like not being let off early. BUT! I do have proof that I did not in any escalate the fight in any way. - Even if the matter is delt with. I might come back. But only if he leaves. If not. I -will- call corporate and the BBB about the matter to get this settles once and for all. There is a zero tolerance policy on threats. So again, if he isnt gone after all of this. Then I will leave. Period. So, that's about it. Does it suck? Oh hell yeah it does. I wont have an income to pay for stuff that I like doing. But it's a lot better than going to work not feeling safe. |

Official Bitmap Review
First off. Let me just say that I think it's obvious I love the Twisted Metal series. But the entire time when writing this I am going to go outside the fanbase and give the best review I can possibly give for this game, honest, truth, and seriousness. Graphics First off, this is not a game that is going to WOW you in terms of graphics. Using the same Havok engine that was made famous by games like Skyrim, Starcraft 2, etc. This game was absolutely not made for beauty. But the technical side of things makes this game shine. You can throw your car inside a building and debre falls, or you might find yourself going toe to toe with someone and collisions are amazing, or finally, you might find boss battles actually shatter the world around you. Sure, looking at it up close it might not look pretty. But when you see 50 missles flying to you while you are going 150MPH it looks damn amazing. Presentation This is a videogame meet's B-movie style horror and comedy. Nothing more, and nothing less. Although the multiplayer is just about everything you can hope for in terms of old school and whatnot. It's everything awesome mixed in with it's own cheesiness. The story itself tries to take itself seriously in every way shape and fashon. But with holes in the story, it just does not add up but at the same time it delivers in a good single player experience. Mentioning the story; it's the same as always. Twisted wishes and Twisted results. Reminder: You get what you asked for. Video is spoiler. But not by much. Sweet tooth's story is the first easy act. But still. Watch at your own wish. One thing that is disappointing is that instead of traditional Twisted Metal you only have three contestants this time around. But I will get to that in the last part of the review. Gameplay This is that part of the review where I rip on the controls. But honestly. It's one of those games where it's hard to pick up but once you play a few rounds it suddenly becomes natural. I'm not even joking here. Once you first pick up this game you are going to have the hardest time moving your car around. But after playing against bots a few times. You somehow get the hang of things and you realise that you now know how to drive! That is...once you learn how to fly. Or ride a motorcycle. Or drive an 18 wheeler. Each car has it's own controls. Well, I kinda take the last part back. Its either you are driving, flying, or driving a big freakin truck around. Each has it's own skill and controls. BUT! It's hard to grasp around, yes. But once you get it you got it. It immediately becomes natural and balanced. Once you get used to driving one vehicle its natural. Controls are hard to pick up. But mastery is key. And thankfully mastery is not that hard once you pick this up. Overall There are a few things I do not like about this game. Beating the game on normal; the only issue is the 2nd boss and the racing parts of this game. Yes, I said racing. You will learn to hate the racing part of this game and for good reason too! A big tip; is to pick a fast car and learn to use shields and to drive like hell. The story; I felt was great and all. But I would have loved to see more contestants enter; this isnt the case. We have three people fighting and a preacher. You'll know more once you play the game but overall you just have three chapters, 18 missions total, and certain frustrations in the single player. The cool thing is that once you beat it on normal the game teases you AGAIN offering rewards in beating the game on "Twisted" mode. Which is fine; but will seem impossible to the average gamer. But a good reward nonetheless. Multiplayer is where it's at. Though right now there are some bugs in connecting in a game and whatnot. But join in with fellow friends and you will have endless hours wasted on a fun time. Guaranteed. Even if you suck this game rules with friends. LAN support, Clan support, and even matchmaking (Unlocking skins, perks, bonuses, etc) are the tip of the iceberg. Twisted Metal was a game I grew up with as a kid. And being a fan of the series. I can easily say this is the best Twisted Metal game of all time. Hands down. But if I were to judge this game on a scale of 1-10. Here is my score. 8.9/10 Disliked - Story having major holes. - Things can get chaotic with the UI and controls - Multiplayer right now sucks. But fun when you are "In" - Beating the game on hardest might upset people on the "Unlocks" - Better get used to multiple control schemes. Flying, Driving, and riding. Liked - Friends or no friends this game is a blast to play offline and online with or without friends - Fun and twisted story. Every wish has a twisted ending. Just like how twisted metal should be. - Gameplay is sweet once you get the hang of it. Beating normal mode feels like an accomplishment! - Soundtrack is amazing with Rock, Rap, and Metal. Perfect combination. - Maps are huge!!! Just when you thought you know a map you accidently discover something by blowing it up reveling something that can help you. - Final Thoughts Is this the best PS3 game out there? No. But is it a must own? Hell yes. Hell fucking yes. You can't own a PS3 without feeling a little bit twisted. And if you are an old fan of the series you will LOVE this game. If not; then at least rent this game and play with your friends. It's a great party game. Nothing better than blowing up your friends while tearing up the streets of time square. This game owns. |

Well, i'm on paid suspension because for fuck knows reasons. I guess when I told the guy "I'm right here" when he threatend me it wasn't supposed to be in front of guests.
Oh well, I'm quitting friday when I have to go back in. Free money. E- So I was talking to some friends of mine and I was told to pick up something at a technical college. Decent pay and as long as i do good in school the government pays me. Also, some very good experiences and whatnot. Downside to this is I need to wait about two months before I do this. So to make up for this I am going to be putting in my two weeks notice and file for unemployment while trying to go back to school. E2- As much of an internet tough guy that you guys think I am. I'm very much a coward when it comes to confrontations. But I at least I know how to stand my ground in certain situations. This one thankfully. I did. So I'm going to be getting paid all day tomorrow for getting my resume prepared. (Last edited by Bitmap on 02-19-12 03:18 AM) |

Well, with your logic Thex. All companies are dicks. Not just sony.
So no. Sorry. I think you just have beef with Sony over videogames and you just dont want to admit it. |

Hey! Someone from Bethesda just passed away. Quick! Raise the price on skyrim so we can get a massive profit!
Either way, Sony apologized about the error and surprise surprise, wasn't being dicks about it and immediately corrected it. Meanwhile, the rest of the world continued to purchase her songs from none other than iTunes and Napster. |

Hopeless? You are seriously having no second thoughts that maybe, just maybe, this was clearly a mistake? And that it wasn't because "They got caught" but perhaps it's unrealistic to change the price on a product 30 minutes after the death of a singer at 2 in the fucking morning?
Thex, I think you are the one who is hopeless. Get real. |

If I was sticking fingers in my ears this conversation would have ended six posts ago Thex.
I still stand by this arguement. And you can continue to call Sony a dick even after they immediately corrected themselves But you know, I'll play your game, and here is my counter-point.
You're right. And as I have said previously. Sony has apologized about the matter and corrected it. But you want to know the -real- reason why the price was high? Let's convert US Dollars to UK Dollars. $1.00 in the USA is about 0.631 Pounds. HOLY SHIT THEX. THAT LOOKS LIKE 61% When the price in the UK was made for Whitney Houston's album. The price in the USA was mistakenly risen to that of the UK's and immedietly after this was discovered. It was corrected. Which, this isn't the first time this has happened with iTunes and even Napster. A simple Gosdamn mistake that i'm sure even you would do Thex
But here is the real meat and potatoes here Thex: Which I am sure you failed to research:
