November Rant: Rage at Gearbox Software

You know, Gearbox Software could have created a GREAT game out of Borderlands. It could have been the next game of the year. But why isn't it? The game is, in theory, a great game to play with your friends. Too bad it doesn't work properly for 25% of people.

First of all, the internet is a failure. You have to forward ports to start a joinable server and there are NO official servers! THis means that nobody can join 90% of games. Also, the system to find games is terrible. There's no filters. You can't just search for games in your average level.

Finally, the game doesn't work. Almost everyone has some little problem. Whether they're like me and have NO SOUND due to incompatibility, or their characters don't save, or they can't see stats, almost everyone has a problem.

They're also DISSING VALVE for not having good support for the PS3. While Valve hosted their game and they don't give a shit about the PC.

Happy birthday. :)

October 2009 Rant: Need more Time

Band. What is band? Band is the class you take, and 90% of the year it's the easiest and most fun class ever. However, in the month of october, it becomes the toughest. Right now I have sectionals Tuesday and Thursday for 2-3 hours, as well as 2 hour Thursday night rehearsals. Add that along with getting up earlier for band at 6:30 in the morning, while normal school starts at 7:25.
Along with that, We have football games to play at on Fridays, and competitions that could last up to 20 hours on Saturdays.

Band is a pain in October.

September 2009 rant: Valve has Failed.

September 2nd; Black Wednesday. Halo Fortress 2 is now in session. Valve removed all items from all people who EVER used the idling program, calling it a "cheat." Cheats are used to increase your chances of winning a game unfairly. Valve uses cheated weapons that have 40x the damage and have every hat. Then they call an idling program that just simulates being in tf2, nothing else, as being a cheat. GJ Valve. You just wrecked half of the TF2 community.

August 2009 Rant: I laugh at the L4D boycotters

They're a bunch of attention starved hypocrits, seriously. 95% of them will buy L4D2 the week it comes out, and 4.5% of the group that doesn't will give up after a month and buy it anyway. The most that they should be arguing for is a discount for people who already have L4D. I also love how they refer to themselves as "staff" even though they are just a steam group. Overall, they can have fun with their boycott, while I blast the heads off of Redneck Zombies this fall.

true that my friend
