Worlds Hardest Game

Ok it may not actually be the hardest game in the world, but it is a challenge. If you have a few minutes or just bored and need something to do this may be the way to pass the time. It takes some thinking and quick maneuvering, but getting past a level is really fun and seeing what they have come up with for the next level kept me going for a while. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans

I have been looking forward to this movie for a while now. I really enjoyed the last two movies and I hope this one will be just as good if not better. It's going a little different from the last two. The second started up exactly where the first left off. I liked how that was done. I hope they don't mess to much up seeing as now it will be set in the past from the first two movies. If you haven't seen the trailer here is a link to it Underworld Rise of the Lycans

Thank You for Smoking

This is a very enjoyable movie. While its main purpose is to serve as entertainment it deals with that art of arguing. It shows how someone can argue anything. Nick explains to his son his job. He shows how if you prove the person you are arguing against is wrong then you are right. While this is not a perfect way to win an argument it does show how you can make others believe you even if you never actually proved why you are correct. The movie is fictitious but it's cool to see how Nick can use words to turn peoples points of view and their actions. I look forward to watching the rest of the movie

Left 4 Dead

I have been looking into this game for a while. It looks like a lot of fun, but from some of the videos I have seen of the gameplay I'm not to sure if it is the game for me. It Doesn't really seem like a game where it's hard to survive and your afraid of the zombies. When I play a zombie game and I'm surrounded by zombies I want to have a feeling of no hope and that I will probably die. When I saw this game played it seemed like zombies were irrelevant and just something to shoot. They didn't seem threatening at all and despite their numbers you were able to easily kill them. Who knows maybe I have gotten the wrong impression from the videos. 

Anyways just wanted to ask anyone that has played the game to let me know how it is and if it's worth buying or waiting tell it's pretty cheap.

Here is a link to the video I watched

First week back

It's has been a pretty fun week. I am really liking my new schedule. It's much more balanced than it was last semester. I had 4 classes in one day that went all day then the next I had one and went back home. Now I have about the same classes per day and  are about the same time. Most of my classes are kind of fun or at least interesting too which helps. Only class I hate to go to is Intro to Art. Possibly the most boring thing in the world.
