Weird Dream
I’m running, I don’t know why, but I’m running fast. I’m in a tunnel not made for the amount of people that are currently squeezing their way through. For some strange reason it’s not hot or muggy but cool. There is a breeze that is blowing us through this tunnel. I would estimate that there has to be 100+ people in this tunnel and it is chaotic. I don’t know...
Late, Late, Night...again again
It’s pretty late. I slept from 5:30-11:30 pm. I have no idea why. I don’t know what it is about sleeping when I know there is not chance of me not oversleeping. I think that is why I sleep so well in the day time. Nobody will notice if I’m sleeping.
I’ve tried to rekindle my posting on tumblr to foster some time of relationship with the people that do enjoy some of...

Reply Tumblr?!?
Does anyone know how to just have replies without actual posts? I’m having a pain in the a$$ of a time trying to reply to TrueNinjaMan74
arararrhghhgh!!!
Late Night...
I have had a bit of difficulty sleeping lately as I am editing a late night video. QuickTime is being a pain in the ass on PC so I had to install/uninstall it. I kind of miss working on a Mac. Not so much the form factor as much as the reliability. Everything worked…all of the time. There was never any hiccup with any other softwares. On my new PC it already feels like it’s dragging...

I completely forgot you had a Tumblr, I was fairly surprised when I saw two posts from you today.
Yeah, I tried to get back on a regular posting schedule

It's been a while...
Ok, so it’s been a while since I’ve last posted. Nothing really has changed, I just wasn’t receiving the interaction that warranted keeping this tumblr thing alive. My buddy Rob told me that he actually read my Tumblr more than he watched my videos, so I will be attempting to once again tumblr some more.
A few things I think:
- The Super Bowl was pretty good. Kind of boring in...

Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol Review
What’s up guys? I know I haven’t posted in a while. It’s been kind of a busy past few weeks at work but I finally got some time to catch my breath. Last night I was able to watch Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol at my local IMAX theater. For those that are unaware, an IMAX theater screen is enormous and added value to the overall mission impossible experience. Also, we were...

Sunday...
I woke up really early today. Well, early for a Sunday and had nothing to do. I ended up making a video and eating an egg mcmuffin. I haven’t had an egg mcmuffin in quite some time and it was very good. I may have to change up my daily oatmeal and mix a few of those in there.
I’ve been playing a lot of MW3 lately. I’ve been having a lot of fun. I’ve changed the regular...

10 non-video game thoughts

Super duper try-hard mode rant
So I haven’t posted in a while and feel kind of bad. I know only about two people will be reading this, but I wanted to get into the habit of posting regularly. I’ve been kind of busy with school and really liking Modern Warfare 3. I know a lot of you guys hate it because it’s not “this” or “that” but I’m satisfied with it.
It’s funny because...
Modern Warfare 3 First Impressions + Release Night
Few thoughts on Modern Warfare 3 + Midnight Release
1. Midnight release at Best Buy was a nightmare. We were in the pre-order line w/probably an hour long wait. Decided to change to the purchase line, waited 5 minutes and got out of there. We’ll pick up our $5 later today. Best Buy needs to do something to fix this. It’s frustrating to know if you pre-ordered the game you wait an hour...
Free Battlefield 3 Online Pass Code + Rant
If you’ve followed me on twitter or tumblr, then you by now know my thoughts on EA’s online pass system they implement on online multiplayer games. Basically to encourage “new” game sales EA puts a code in all new releases that is necessary to play online content. If you rent the game from Gamefly or another retail outlet, you must pay 800 Microsoft points to unlock online...
Words from a wise Noob...MW3 thoughts
The following was written by Reader18:
Why I will die a lot in MW3
I’m really looking forward to the release of Modern Warfare 3. So much so that I’m taking a day off of work to get my pre-ordered copy at midnight and play all day on Tuesday.
I know what you are thinking; I must be a guy with a gaming monitor, 300 dollar wireless headsets, and a souped up internet connection so I can host games...
Body shop...again
So I’m at the body shop again and I seem to have forgotten how boring this place can be. Anyways, new videos and comms coming soon. I just got upgraded Internet and planning to optimize my network in preparation for MW3—yep total nerd move. It is nice to be able to upload videos really fast though. Maybe I’ll do a setup video on my modem and router since I’ve been asked...
Comments
I’m a noob at this. If you want to make a reply, use the comment section. I’ve been trying to reply to notes, but they look funny and kind of bumps the main stuff down. I’ll get the hang of this thing sooner or later

Hey if you need more dual comms add me on skype we can do dual comms for days and even tricoms if BathTubGirl is on and yeah im thinking about getting Golden Eye Reloaded instead of Batman
Yeah, we’ll figure something out. I have to find a good Skype recorder first. Goldeneye looks just like COD 4 though and MW3 is coming out. I’d...
10 video game thoughts
1. Modern Warfare 3 is almost here
2. I decided to not purchase Battlefield 3. Funny how I have no problem spending $150 on a Gears of War 3 epic edition but still sour over a silly $10 online pass
3. This MarkofJ challenge is a little bit more difficult than I thought
4. I wish I had a PS3 so I can play Uncharted 3
5. I think I’m going to open up those X12s, I need a new headset after I...

Amazon Buy 2 Get 1 Free on select video games
I’m an amazon prime addict (free 2-day shipping on amazon order filled by amazon) and now they are featuring Buy 2 Get 1 free for vidja games! Here is a list of the Xbox 360 games available:

Battlefield 3 Campaign Review
So I just finished the Battlefield 3 single player campaign. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed it. It stands on it’s own as a complete mission and I am satisfied. I would say it is short for most gamers, maybe a 5-10 hour endeavor. Some parts are overused and much was recycled from other games—most notably Modern Warfare—but still worth trying out if you are a fan of the FPS genre.

iPhone 4 + 4S screen protectors
If you guys know me, you know I’m always looking for the latest and greatest while suffering from just a touch of OCD. Now, if you’re looking for the best iPhone 4 or 4S screen protector (they are identical front/back) then look no further.

The phonedevil screen protector products are—to me—the best....
Stanford over USC 56-48
So we just got back from the game, where we smashed on some Chipotle and a big oven baked cookie a la mode at Old Chicago which was delicious. The only problem is that we forgot our leftover cookies there, which I think must be a common problem because we do that all the time.
The game was exciting the Trojans fought a hard it was a shame that they lost on a last second fumble. Andrew Luck (the...
Iphone 4S first impressions
Angie’s thoughts
2 years ago I had the HTC Droid Eris and last year I had a Blackberry Curve. In comparison to those phones the iPhone 4S is…FAR superior. Siri is actually really helpful. I can tell Siri to send texts, call people, set reminders and even search for things on the internet. Definitely comes in handy when you’re driving, hehe. She even comes up with some smart ass...
BF3 on PC
Alright look, we all know you love your consoles and your COD, but I have got to say, BF3 on PC is worth the money and the trouble.
I know you have this shiny new HP, and all it would really need to run this game up to epic standards is a PSU and a video card, but you can run as is, and even my old dusty unit is doing alright.
I have a friend who has been owning this past week on your EXACT same...
EA has it all wrong.
Couldn’t agree more with you. Why would I buy a game that I can’t try out the multiplayer. It’s the biggest part of the game and what they have been marketing for in the past few months. If they really thought, “guys, this is THE game that will pull us closer in Call of Duty sales”. Then why charge $10 more. Now some may say, COD charges $50 (I think) for Elite....

EA has it all wrong
So in my previous post I was gushing about how awesome Battlefield 3 is/was, or at least the single player campaign. I tried to play some multi-player, but it said that I needed an online pass. Now I’m not a stranger to EA’s online pass system, but for them to not even include a trial makes me not even want to purchase the game. I was giving strong thought to purchasing BF3, but with...

Auto repair
I’m sitting in the office of an autobody shop. I don’t know what it is about auto shops that make me think these guys are ripping me off or lying to me. I’m actually at a dealership so it isn’t too bad, but they could tell me anything. It’s eerily quiet in here…
Battlefield 3 - First Impressions
So I’m sick enough that I wasn’t able to even lay in my bed, let alone go to work today so I decided to try out some Battlefield 3. I installed both discs on my Xbox 360 hard drive and the process took around 20 minutes. I also, installed the optional texture pack (1.5 GB) and that took an additional 5-8 minutes.
I’m a casual gamer and typically like campaign driven...
My Gamefly endorsement
If you’ve followed me you know that I love Gamefly. I had to add in a quick testimonial for them because I felt that their service is ever improving. I live in the Pacific Northwest and Gamefly has just opened a new distribution center in Seattle. Long story short, I get new releases a day after they hit stores. For example, Battlefield 3 came out on Tuesday 10/25. I received it in the mail...
Feeling sick...
I ate a Tuna sandwich and clam chowder for lunch and skipped dinner. Now I feel sick. Pro tip: don’t eat tuna and clam chowder together
Battlefield 3?!?
So is battlefield 3 good? Gamefly is sending it, so I’ll probably get it tomorrow. Let me know what you guys think
Nemo cries...a lot
So today Nemo was crying a lot. He got a sprain in his neck from something. My gf had to take him to the vet at 3:00 am last night and then I had to sit with him all day. I feel bad for him. He’s kind of a big baby, but hopefully the drugs the vet gave him make him feel good.
Nice headsets...
I recommend both of these headsets as alternatives to Turtle Beaches. They are much more durable and—to me—sound better
Sharkoon X-Static XS: $49.96 (I have these and they are awesome!)
And if you want black and compatibility with Xbox and PS3
Sharkoon X-Static SP Gaming headset: $49.96

Me testing out this tumblr thing. I couldn’t figure out how to allow posts on my main website so I decided to use this. Things seem to be going pretty smoothly so far
