Out with the old (2009) and in with the new (2010)

Well as the dawn slowly closes an ending to yet another year, we soon say goodbye 2009 and hello to 2010.
This year had much shocking developments and happiness & joy for some people in the world, so we all have something to celebrate in our own senses.
A celebration to a successful year perhaps, or if you're on my band wagon, a celebration in conquering the tough challenges that 2009 had thrown at you.
But if anyone's like me, then ring that damn bell already because I'm ready for what 2010 has to throw at me.
I close off my Christmas and 2009 with an injured face, and hope to begin anew when 2010 begins when I heal, and get compensation from the bastard that did this to me.
Have a good christmas and a happy new year.

T'is the season to be....full of flu?

I had been feeling a little under the weather lately, it wasn't flu related thankfully, but I had been getting increased fatigue & quick flashes of dizzy spells, but so far, all is being well now.
And on that note I just wanna say one more thing "GO OUT AND BUY ASSASSIN'S CREED 2" :p it's a really cool game :)

If only...

When I joined EO in version 25, after a couple of weeks I thought EO had the potential to become a great online game, that all suddenly changed once Vult-r started fading interest for his online game.
But, if EO were still on the road to success, Vult could've hired more admins opened up another server with different items & a different name, let's just say for an example "Endless Online: Reign Of Chaos", I'm sure it would've made half the population of EO happier, but it's all a dream now since Endless Online is falling fast like roller coaster rolling down but with no track at the bottom to prevent any casualties.

If I could make a TV series

It would be about a man who discovers he has the ability to have his soul leave his body when he sleeps, his body would remain in a sleepful nature, but he soon realises his new found ability comes with a price, the price that he must hunt down and capture all spirit demons.
Sure it wont be a simple task for our hero, as he battles demons even poltergeists, and buy his side will be his new found lady friend who can see spirits including souls.
Down the heroes path he'll encounter some problems, such as finding himself stuck in the spirit world while his body remains in a coma, and one night while on a demon spirit hunt a powerful spirit demon who can possess bodies takes over his body while our hero remains as a spirit, they even would be points where our hero gets woken up by something or someone from the slightest phone call to the sound of road works while on a mission.

It's that time of the year again :3

I don't just mean Christmas, I also mean I have many many video games I want coming out one after another, building up to Christmas I've no doubt.
But when it comes to christmas that's when my inner child surfaces lol, looking forward to surprises and wondering which of my presents is which, so yea I do love christmas even though it can be tough during the weeks building up to christmas with all that spending to do and buying friends & family presents, but you can never be too old for christmas and playing video games :)

Working on my first pixels since reformatting

I've started work on a Ninja outfit which will be a part of a patch in future...that's the plan atm anyway, so I thought I'd show you what it looks like with the mask almost done, but I do have concerns over it though.

I like the face mask and the bandana on top of the head at least, so I'm thinking whether the black parts should stay or go...I feel it may look better if it went, but I guess only one way to find out is if I try it.

Hmm, I still can't yet decide...

Online Gaming

Well just thought I'd say since alot of you wont know...I have tried Runescape before, but in my opinion it's too slow and too dull for my liking, and sure EO maybe falling into the darkest deepest parts of the shit pit right about now but because there's very few decent people on there, and some of them I happen to know, that is one of the reasons I keep playing it.

Now if you want my advice, one game is probably not worth investing in is Champions Online where you get to create your own super hero and choose his/her powers.
Sure this may sound really fun and good to you which at this point even I'd believe it does too, but the things that lets it down is not only does it lag but also not only have you got to buy the game from your local video gaming retail store, after 30 days of registering your game, anyone who wishes to carry on playing the game has to pay a stupid amount of money to subscribe so they can carry on playing.
So this game would be a hell of alot better if you have the option to play offline aswell as to be free rather than to subscribe, since the makers of the game have failed to realise one of the game makers most important rule in creating a game is "to make sure the users/buyers get their moneys worth", and for Champions Online all I can say is it's a rip off, all I have to hope for now is I hope DC Universe Online wont make us subscribe when that gets released.

Honey I'm hooooome....

Ok I've decided maybe I'll come back on here more often and do some blogging.
I've had some stressful times trying to sort out my laptop after suffering the dreaded Blue Screen Of Death....but so far all is good, but there's still some stuff to install.

I now associate myself with the likes of: Sims 3, Football Manager 2009, Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 (all for the PC), FIFA 10, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, Need For Speed Shift, Disgaea 3 & Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 (all for the Playstation 3).
Speaking of Need For Speed Shift, I had myself a race with a few people, and one of them was with an admin for NFS Shift...I did alot better than I thought I'd do against who I consider to be "The best" since he's one of the men behind the game, I had 5 races, and in two of them I came 2nd but came close to finishing in 1st.

Plans for the near future: Yes I may consider in making my own server in future, I do learn quickly and I am talented so it's a 50/50 chance I may become good at it or not, but for the time being I shall just make a patch for me to test on main which if I do decide in making my own server my patch will be used, and some of you might be disappointed to hear that I had lost all my pixelated work from the Mario hats to the Moonwalker tux & The Squirtle outfit, so I'll probably have to start all those from scratch.

Arvid apparently threatening to sue anyone using Private EO Servers

So....rumours are Arvid's threatened to sue any of the private servers using his pixel art.
Well, fear not Arvid as half of the pixels aren't really that great and I think it may sound a bit funny to some of the judges if you were to walk in and say you're sueing half the population of Endless Online because they've breached the laws of copyright over your pixels.
Solution for Arvid: If it's that much of an issue instead of whining about it Arvid you should take that up with Vult since he's the head of programming/coding and could possibley do I don't know, maybe encrypt your pixels in some way so that gfx files are not accessable at all (like EOR has done).

Solution for the players: Since Vult doesn't mind people using private servers as long as those who sign up take precautions in not using the same names or passwords, one solution would be to create your own pixel art, however will take a whole team of pixel artists to do it though and that way you can guarantee he can't do nothing about it, it's either that or not listen to what Arvid (or a fake Arvid) has had to say and just carry on since he would have to take half the population of Endless Online (which is an awful lot), and look silly in front of judges trying to explain that all these people stole your poorly drawn pixels.

The end of 2 era's

Well it's the end of 2 era's for English Football.
One will see most of the defenders in the Premiership delighted to see the back of Cristiano Ronaldo as he signs for Real Madrid, however being a Man Utd fan myself I hope he does rubbish at Real Madrid, and why I say that is because his ego is as big as Barcelona are at the moment, and all due respect to Carlos Quieroz commenting that Ronaldo's loyalty to Man Utd had nothing to do with it as he was following his dream, in my eyes he's young, he's got all the time in the world to play for other clubs, the least he could've done was see out his remaining contract at United and then leave.

The second end of an era is Newcastle.
Sadly Newcastle have been having some problems.
Joey Barton being a complete prick, original manager Joe Kinnear recovering after being under the knife while Alan Shearer has taken the manager's seat at Newcastle, and we now see Newcastle will be trying to fight their way back into the premiership.
And I kind of hope they do come back into the premiership since they've been playing in the Premiership for many years now and trying to imagine a league without Newcastle is just a little difficult for me.
However out of all the teams in the premiership who I expected would be in the relegation zone no one deserves to stay in top flight than Hull City after their explosive start to the 08/09 season.

Lol @ the people on the Eo forum

So I posted an idea involving the whole servers on the wishlist section of the forum.
The idea was to have the test server only open for a limited time until a week after the new version is officially out, and on the test server players be able to wear anything they like without buying anything (like on Rena's server).
And that a new server be created for those who are fans of Eo before stats were brought into play.
And because of this I got a few people bitching at me because I posted an idea on the wishlist section.
And then I get people bitching at me on my thread Playstation 3 Vs Xbox 360 saying things like "Nobody cares so fuck off", ect....so I don't mix with the people on the Eo forum, for starters I'd need to have my head shoved up my arse.

Random Thought of the week (Saturday 7th March)

If you're about to get married irl and suddenly start to get cold feet.

You should've worn a pair of boots instead.

Lifestyles of the Eo rich & the famous

As the 1up manship war between Sausage & Vult continues, the question remains to how Vult-r is going to counter react.
A rollback is unlikely since it's been so long now that the duping all started, I highly doubt he'll do a server wipe either, but what I'd do in his situation is come up with a solid code to prevent duping, and because this dupe hack has rendered almost all the oldbies Panda's & turtle's as worthless now, I'd create 2 new outfits to replace to be given to oldbies who have lore turtle's & panda's but also make their turtle's & panda's lore and these new outfits will become lore.

My thoughts...

Well I've been through quite a bit of mad shit recently (read one of my older blogs).
Their has been many other sitings in the UK of UFO's in areas close by me.

Eo & YFL:
Sure it maybe a little fun having duped items/gold even for a limited period but it has it's draw backs too, it could render all the items that all the folk on eo have worked hard to get as useless/worthless.
Also YFL get way too much credit...sure, hats off to them for challenging Vult and pin pointing weaknesses in the server for Vult to realise what went wrong,
but sure enough YFL might not see that from this point of view as more to manipulating the Eo's server to work to their advantage, but like I said "it also has it draw backs", for instance: Eo used to be full of hackers/cheaters all over the place so wasn't as easy as it is now for Vult to find the culprits, but now the most majority of cheaters/hackers are joining YFL, and there you have it Vult, the one's who fuck up eo even more are now most likely in YFL.

PS3 Vs Xbox 360 Vs Wii:
I'm sure I may have made this topic before, but let's say this is an update.
Now I have all 3 consoles so I know what I'm talking about.

Xbox 360: We have Microsoft who are well known for being money greeding bastards most of the time, they rushed in releasing the Xbox 360, leaving most of these consoles with faults.
Most Xbox 360 consoles will break down within 2/3 months of being purchased and used, and what frustrates me even more is that Microsoft have used what they call "avatars" which looks like an exact rip off of Nintendo's Mii's.

Wii: Now although the Nintendo Wii has an impressive Wii-mote and quite addictive games, it does also lack the impressive graphics that the 360 & the PS3 have.
The graphics for the Nintendo Wii appears to be more kiddish than realistic, but Nintendo have done well to keep this fact unoticeable to Nintendo fans out there with their addictive games, so curse you Nintendo for releasing addictive games such as Animal Crossing, My Sims, Mario Kart & Super Smash Bros Brawl.

PS3: Now I'm going to do alot of comparing the Playstation 3 to the Xbox 360 here.

Q: Does the Xbox 360 have a built in WiFi?
A: No, you have to fork out £50+ for one, where as the PS3 comes with one built in.

Q: Can you download free Xbox 360 theme's off the internet and store them onto your console?
A: No, however you can with a Playstation 3.

Q: Which is more reliable? The Xbox 360 or the PS3?
A: Haha, the Playstation 3 hands down, but the Nintendo Wii is more reliable than them both.

Q: Can you buy an Xbox 360 hard drive that's over 60gb?
A: I've read that it seems the highest the 360's hard drive's can go is 200gb, however with the Playstation 3 you can buy a PC hard drive for it, I did, it was 40gb at first, now it's 320gb.

It's times like this I wish I had a fucking shotgun

Seems my whole bizzare experiences have yet to come too an end, as on my way home from my mate's I was on the bus and some lunatic in front of us was swerving about all over the place.

And I've had just about enough of a certain someone named Veri (Nymphyre), everytime I give her advice it's in one ear and straight out the other, and now she's going round boasting about her fake real life marriage with some freak with a freaky name Darcy and some freak mohawk when she's determined to look like a freak herself.
It's a pity how a set of a waste of lives fail to respect that marriage is no joke and should be treated seriously, so congratulations guys, you fail badly at life.
