ok today is going to be more productive i promise!

ok it's day 2 of my break time to be productive right? no more 12 hour wow binges

Break Day 1

Poop Sock Day is what i refer to the very first day of any extended break from school and work. I never changed out of my clothes and played wow all day. I have never had a binge extend for over 10 hours but i made that happen. Key guidelines for an extended video game session. 1 drink plenty of water avoid soda's and energy drinks. 2 take short breaks to walk around, this keeps the body from atrophy. I leveled from 74 to half way to 75 and brought my professions up to boot al in all it was a great time

the Great Bro-mance that is GEARS 2

Seriously it does not get anymore bro then Gears 2. You mix one part reject football players, cheesy one liners like "That's ten Shit loads" , lastly guns with fucking chainsaws on them and you get Gears. The second in the franchise improves from the original and cranks the Bro-ocity to over 9000(I'm trying to see how much i can work bro into the sentences.) I ignore Tai's tribal tattoos only because he seems to have pacific islander decent of which the design comes from and is a traditional sign of warriors. So far I'm enjoying my romp through the game with my roommate but i wish they stop pretending to have a seriously plot and just go for new levels of ridiculous ala Evil Dead. Seriously make that happen Epic.

1 <3 711

Seriously I love 711, I have always loved 711 from my youth I remember slurpies with dad after my soccer games. Later in my adolescence I had my first taste of Coffee thus driving down a spiral of Caffeine addiction. Now as a adult I go to 711 to buy video games before their street date. Most likely this is the product of disfranchised and under informed employees. Lets think about this for a second, if 711 marketing time made a deal with Microsoft and Activision to allow them to break the street dates on their games. Whats the harm in that, nothing really. Did it create even more of a buzz for these games...yes. Conversely this also put 711 on the map for gamers to go and purchase their games. So now gamers are questing all over their cities in search of these games. Since 711 gets so few copies of each game this doesn't damage any other retailers. I salute you 711 you've always been kind to the geek culture with your burritos, slurpies and energy drinks. Thank you for your continued service for geeks everywhere! 

Seriously......

ok so my pocket book is pretty much screwed.....

Last week it was Gears 2 and resitance 2. This week it'a the Wow Expansion. So here are some tips to help ease the pains in your wallet. 

1) Do you even have time to play all these games. Most of us are in school and work alot, whats the point of buying a game if it's just going to collect dust till the winter break. 

2)  Are sequels that much better then the originals.  For example i'm not going to buy the new Call of duty right away i can wait till later in the year since i can still have fun with COD4. 

3) Rent, rent shorter games that you know you aren't going to play again,  games like Mirrors edge are short and have limited replay options so just rent it.  Also Gamefly allows you to buy pre-rented games.... i got fallout right when it came out and bought for 50 saving me about ten dollars and they sent me another game on my list. 

4) Sale old games away for extra cash,
