ROMs. Why not?

There is one question that has forever tormented gamers: To emulate or not to emulate.
For you n00bs, emulating is using your computer to play downloadable games released on earlier consoles such as PS and N64. Some people call it immoral to emulate, however, I see it as a perfectly right means of playing the classics. Firstly, most of these games cannot be purchased anymore, so there is no profit to be lost. Second, those games that can be gotten off Wii Shop Channel and XBox Live Arcade are far too expensive considering their age.
Why should we be forced to buy PS2 to play Final Fantasy VII?
Just something to think about.
BTW...
I just got AVP2 and Jumper. =)

The Trouble with Sonic

Why the heck does everyone love Sonic and the Secret Rings and hate the Gamecube Sonics?
SSS was a hellishly uncontrollable nightmare with crummy music, repetitive stage design and little to no story. The Arabian Nights theme was screwed up and having the characters play different roles sucked.
Wait, Wait, Wait…
In comparison, the Gamecube Sonic games had intriguing storylines and believable characters.
The action stages were solid and let you explore, rather than forcing you forward in some on-rails screw-up. The Shadow saga was terribly heart wrenching and you could really feel for him.
So please... don't make Sonic Unleashed and Sonic and the Black Knight as bad as SSS!!!

I find that listening to music improves my performance on Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, FEAR, and other FPS games. It seems to get me really pumped up. Try listening to Eminem/Slim Shady or heavy metal while on Legendary in Halo. YOU WILL PWN!!!

Hey here are some awesome videos.

Rednecks get owned (read Tuesday's blog)

Rednecks and why I hate them.

I consider myself an alright guy. Unfortunately, my loser neighbors don't. I live in a hick town full of farmers that think intellectualism is something homosexuals do. If you get a job or hobby that doesn't involve farm work they think you aren't manly enough. They drive their stupid ATVs until they drop or I tell them to @#%$ off. If you are a redneck, please just go live with your own primitive kind. Thank you.

Halo 3... and the total n00bs I meet on it.

Man... you meet a lot of lost causes on X-Box live. Me an' my pal Bloody Abyss play a lot and meet a most of the Earth's scum. Scummy scum that makes George Bush look like some kinda sensai.
OK, here's a list of people I met in our last few sessions. Well... really it's just the losers.
1. Random Brit.
Okay, first, this dude couldn't speak English at all. "Oi ma matey laties wass on the floorbenster"
wasn't a real sentence last I checked. Plus his online name was Beckham. Football/Soccer= n00b.
2. Little Kid.
I don't really think 6-12 year olds should be playing Halo. I mean the freakin' rating is M for a reason. BA and I met this kid in a game of crazy king on Sandtrap, which is an awesome match if you ask me. Unfortunately, lil Webster apparently didn't think so as he started screaming "VETO VETO VETO!" at the top of his squeaky lungs. We muted him for a bit, then he comes back screaming about how unfair we all are. We get into the match with this kid (who had named himself "Halo" Looosssserrr...) and he totally screws up and comes in last. BA and I were in second place. After the match, he starts going "YOU LOST!!! YOU LOST!!!" With an FU we bid this kid bye bye.
3. Modder.
Stabbed 'im repeatedly with a plasma sword without doing a thing. Nuff said.
4. Lil Poison.
Never met this kid, but I dislike him with an inhuman level of determination.

So this ends this edition of Musings of a 1337 Dude.
Later...
