short sequels

Anyone who has known me throughout my life knows I like video games a lot, in fact as a kid I think I placed 3rd in my area in a local gaming competition at Blockbuster (remember when people actually went in to rent things?). As I got older other interests seemed to take gamings place and while I still played, I hardly was as serious about it as I once was.

That being said I went on a mini buying spree in the last week spending between two and three hundred dollars on 3 games, the reason the cost is so high was Guitar Hero 3 and it’s 100 buck price tag because of the controller. The games I purchased were the aforementioned Guitar Hero 3, Halo 3, and Call Of Duty 4. All being phenomenally well done, beautiful to look at, and fun to play games. So why am I blogging about it?

Length, or rather lack thereof, each game I purchased I have completed already and I don’t play them non stop as so many other interests need my attention as well. I think every game now has put so much emphasis on XBOX Live that they have neglected the person at home playing his game who doesn’t want to game online. Sure I have played online games and the quick fun burst of fighting another person is exciting as heck but I already bought the game, I don’t want to pay for another service so I can use the most intensive features of it.

So please if you read this, game developers add some length to your games, because if Grand Theft Auto IV is as short as the three games I mentioned then it may be my last for quite some time. Sixty bucks for a day of fun is too much if you ask me….

yahoo messenger equals spyware

So yahoo, you don’t let me uninstall you as a whole so I have to kill each individual program. Then you fuck up my firefox so I have to take time to fix my default search. And I was just starting to warm up to you, I mean google is spying on me basically, and you have some of my favorite services like flickr, del.icio.us and others. But no you had to ruin it by fucking up my copy of messenger with what amounts to unwanted spyware. So thank you, I will fix my stuff and go back to google, except for those services you have that I like. I can be won back though, so please try.

killed because of orientation

This story is a horribly sad one, if you remember the story of Matthew Shephard it will make you angry and sad much like that one did back then. Anyways my thanks to dailykos, and digg for pointing this out.

Three young men in Jackson County Indiana said they were so freaked out when ‘propositioned’ by Aaron Hall on April 12th, that they proceeded to beat the 100 pound, 5’4 man for hours, using their fists, boots, dragging him down a staircase while his head slammed into each step, and then throwing him in a ditch and leaving. Aaron managed to crawl out of the ditch and out into a nearby field, where he died, alone and naked.
