MUSIC:

Ahh yes, an installment in music's finest genre, POWER METAL! Blind Guardian is playing at the Trocadero (a club in Philly) luckily not far from me, being as I live in South Jersey, which is right there basically. Taking the train to Philly on December 2nd, oddly enough, the day after my High School's "Winter Ball". Thank god Blind Guardian is coming out with a new album and they didn't decide to stay in Europe, god that would have sucked, and they have graced our country with the presence of their metal godliness.

Also, I saw Iron Maiden a while back and that was probably the greatest concert I've ever been to. Yes, it even beat the Dragonforce concert at the Electric Factory (Hell yes, I hung out with Herman Li!).

NOW PLAYING:

-Greenface, Iced Earth

-The Odyssey, Symphony X

-Where Eagles Dare, Iron Maiden

-Bodom Beach Terror, Children of Bodom

-Kill to Live, Firewind

-Trial by the Archon, Blind Guardian

-Cataclysm Children, Dimmu Borgir

-Terror Train, Demons and Wizards

-Blood Brothers, Hammerfall

-Laudate Dominum, Helloween

-Welcome Home, King Diamond

-Dead to the World, Nightwish

-Warriors of the World United, Manowar

-Afterlife, Nocturnal Rites

-Strike Down, Persuader

-Passage to the fourth World, Sinergy

-The Cage, Sonata Arctica

-Black Diamond, Stratovarius

-Nuvole Rapide, Subsonica

That Playlist owns, even though Subsonica is kind of thrown in there…

COUNTER STRIKE NEWS:

I am officially on the 1 Deag Patrol! I ripped out 3 consecutive 1 deags on Dust 2. I rushed mid with a deag and a nade, I flashed alley, ran up the ramp, grilled the first idiot to peek me, then the next came out of long A double doors, guess what happened? Grilled, #1deaged. The last guy tried to awp me from T spawn. I jumped and he clipped my foot with the awp then as I landed, 1 deag to his face. Yep, he was fishing bullets out of his throat with a coathanger.

Non-1 Deags of the game, I Scouted a kid in Long A Pit, he had an AWP, missed his shot, and I snapped the cursor right to his mouth, lets try and say this nicely… nah nevermind, I ripped his friggin' BRAIN apart.

WARCRAFT MAPPING:

I'm making a map similar to Uther Party, a collection of original Mini Games built purely for Multiplayer Mayhem! I'll give a better update later.

My CTF map on the other hand is coming along great, almost ready for release! Multiboards are almost working, and the camera view is fixed.

(Finally) GAMEMAKER:

My Untitled Topdown Shooter is coming along great, I got my inspiration from a Dual Wield example on this site. I saw that and said "Damn, that could easily make a bucknasty Multiplayer game!" and so I began working on it. I have just about all the weapons I'd want in there, in there. Also, I have the GUI done, including healthbars, ammo bar, reload timer, etc. Hopefully I can add this to my W.I.P. Section soon.

Dungeon Lord is being upload as a W.I.P. but I will need some help, being that this is my first Isometric game ever, I need some help with collision checking on my pushblocks, also, I need some help making a GUI with Health, Mana, and a working Spell menu, also, spell ideas!

OTHER NEWS:

I got accepted to DeVry College! I'm going for Computer Technology/Game and Simulation Programming/Game Design. Don't know where that inspiration came from :P.

Heh, power metal is pretty awesome, but I dislike the vocals, which is why blackened power metal is to my preference (like some of Bodom's earlier stuff)

I like Black Metal as well, but I prefer a guy who can sing falsetto without having to ice his balls.
