Mass Arrival



 <---------- [BING! Welcome to the Milky-way. Please watch your step and do be on the look out for the galactic apocalypse. Thank you for traveling Reaper, Dark Space Destruction Spaceliners.]






The prospect of impending DDDDOOOOOOMMMMM!!!.... (Ahem.... Doom] has never been more exciting.
Basically BioWare is out to make us save the galaxy, one DLC (Downloadable Content) at a time.
Now I'm not complaining, seeing as how all of their DLC has been great. So as long as they keep this track record, I won't kick up a stink. [Besides, kicking stick would imply touching something revolting....  yeah....... like Poo... Just say'n, jeez don't look at me like that. It's natural to assume poo. OK? for real, Poo, it's POO! That Sh....tuff is just plain nasty. Hmm, OK I better stop before I begin to rant. oh, right. crap.]

Tomorrow, BioWare is dropping a piece of Mass Effect-ie goodness with their last DLC for MASS 2. Why the last digital upgrade? Well, because Mass Effect 3 is coming out THIS November. So tomorrow's DLC is bridging the last gap. It's setting the stage for M.E. 3 and it's aptly titled. "Arrival."

Basically, you're on a Solo Mission. [That means the team for this Op consists of Commander Shepard, uh, Commander Shepard, and oh how could I forget. COMMANDER SHEPARD. Hence the "Solo."]

Anyway, you're out to save a certain V.I.P. whose got the down and dirty on the Reapers, and even their Arrival time. [See what I did there?] Turns out, galactic death could be only TWO Mass Effect Days away! [OH NO! NOT THAT!] Yes that, and I know we're all excited, VERY, excited.

The link below has the "Launch Trailer." Enjoy. Also the aforementioned link was examined by top men. TOP, MEN. to ensure your full enjoyment, so you know. Make with the enjoying already. Top men aren't cheap.

A Busy Bee.

Well I've been busy, either by preparing to MEPS, which is what everyone goes through to see about joining the Armed Forces of their desired branch. My choice, Navy.

But now that, that nonsenses is behind me I can look forward to business as usual.
I've been playing Crysis 2.


[Yeah, this game.] -------->









It's been a blast. I just finished the Campaign on normal and am now pushing through the rank and file of enemy PMC's the "Cell" and Alien baddies known as the "Ceph." on the hardest difficulty setting. [Personally I think the hardest difficulty setting should be named. "He-Man" Or "Hell on Legs." But whatever, it's fun!]

The controls are smooth and easy to get the hang of, especially if you've ever played a first person shooter, and more closely related, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 1|or|2.

The Music is pretty good and at times, great. The graphics are the best I've ever seen on the X-Box hands down.
Infected/Decimated New York City is gorgeous, it looks a feels like the real city under massive attack. The FX's are crisp and your suits Artificial Intelligence sounds so friggin cool. I wish I had a suit for the A.I. alone.

The story is solid, not the greatest ever, but good. the Voice acting has one or two spots that sound lack luster, but that doesn't slow this game down one bit. It's a solid shooter, worth every penny. I'll be keeping this game a while.

Switching gears, the Multi-player is top notch. It feels like the bridge between HALO and Call of Duty. If you were to squeeze those two games together, you'd get Crysis 2. It's every bit as fun as it sounds. I'll be enjoying the 6 Vs. 6 Multi-player for a long time coming.

Nano-Suits. Get you one.
