Get some help? and....?

Can someone direct me to a blog entry about ash ketchums life story, its really wierd and ends with "then i realized, i wanted to be a pokemon master" or something, thanks.
To justify this blog post; Easter weekend is killing me, everything is closed, argh. I cant seem to do a whole lot, such as sending packages in the mail. Whatever its almost over ,i guess. Got a quick question for any golfing cags, looking to get a new driver this year, im currently using a ping rapture, but im looking at maybe the new Clevelands or the Taylor made R9 driver. Thoughts? Thanks for reading. |

Wow, I suck at life.

So ever since MW2 came out, it has dominated my gaming. My backlog is growing but i cant seem to put this game down. I have mass effect 2(that i was very excited for), dead space, splinter cell double agent, dark siders, sabateour, COD W@W(or i hope to have it in the mail soon), 007 quantom of solace and lost planet, all untouched, but i just cant get away from this game.
UGH!!!!! The silver lining: My live runs out in May, im going to purposelly not buy more live and just play all of my backlog during that time, also slow summer game-wise and ill be out of University soon so hopefully i can catch up then, if needed. Thanks for reading. |

I posted a few days ago about the idea of blocking a blog. Youngloco22(?) you have further proven my point. Even you, DaddyBoJangles must be annoyed at least somewhat by this. And youngloco22, please stop. Please combine all your posts, thank you.

Due to the giant amount of blog posters who post things i have no desire to look at or even see pictures of when attempting to skim through the recent blogs I have to ask: Is there a way to ignore a blog poster? I believe there is a way to do so in the forums. If not, has it ever been considered?

Metro 2033
By RobMinhas 03-04-2010 05:20 PM

(Metro 2033 is an upcoming action-oriented video game with a combination of survival horror, RPG, and first-person shooter elements. The game is based on the novel Metro 2033 by Russian author Dmitry Glukhovsky.) Am I the only person excited for this game? I've read the book, and it is great and from what I've read its looking pretty good. Another bonus about this game is that it is one of the only 360 exclusives to be released for $60 CAD rather then the $70 we usually have to pay. Please comment. Some more info about the game in the spoiler tag. ... |

I just want to thank all of you CAGs who told me to stick with ME. As soon as I
I havent turned back. I am
right now and i am loving it, updated armor, weapons etc. and im loving it. I have a quick question though,
In other news, great last few days, watched both the girls and the guys bring home the gold in hockey, no offense you yanks, watched us clean up in curling(almost) and the speed skating gold, also called in twelve nukes in the last three days in MW2. Great stuff. Once again thanks to all those helpful CAGs. |

Mass Effect
By RobMinhas 02-24-2010 11:42 PM

Hmm..... I dont even know how to get into this without apearing to be one of those losers trying to get comments by posting semi-controversial things. I purchased Mass Effect, last year, around february, and i got to
(gasp, far i know) before i grew bored of it and moved on(I blame Batman AA among other things). i sold it. After hearing the ridiculous things about ME 2, i decided id like to play the first game through, before i start ME 2. So i borrowed it from my buddy, got just as far as i did last time and.... you guessed it, got bored again. WHY!!!!! I feel spurred by the games story, even if i hate that i cant scope in much or at all with my weapons. But god damn it, i cant maintain interest. Can anyone give me some advice as to how to get into it and stay into it. thanks, in advance.

Patapon and a question.
By RobMinhas 12-18-2009 08:13 PM

Hello, cags. I havent blogged for a bit so i decided to do one here. Just two days ago i downloaded patapon on a whim, had nothing better to play on my psp, and my god, i am addicted. Its a crazy fun game and i reccomend it(or perhaps even its sequel) to anyone who has a psp. For those who dont know about it, its kind of like a rhythm based RTS. You command your pons(?) to attack and move forward to a beat. It is extremely addictive. Anyway onto console gaming:
PS3: Nothing, i did dust it last week though, it looked a little nasty. Wii: played some wii sports with some of my younger cousins, thats really all. Did pick up HotD OK, looking forward to play it. 360: Been playing it like nuts lately. Im enjoying MW2 regardless of the boosting, glitches etc. Fun game, definetely reccomend it even if it doesnt drop in price for another, i dont know four years and two sequels? Also playing NFS shift, great game there, probably totally... |

Let me paint you this picture. In may i fell into a gaming funk, i couldnt play for more than an hour before getting bored or distracted, fast forward to 2 days ago. I just got my x1s in the mail and afro samurai the day before.
After setting everything up i played afro samurai, for 5 HOURS!!!!!!!!! I hadn't had a hardcore gaming session like that for months. Afro samurais awesome voice talent and narration and unbelievable sound track combined with the x1s made me appreciate gaming all over again. More about afro samurai, its a great fun game. One thing though but is it just me or was it overlooked hugely? I had heard nothing about this before i played the demo in april. Anyway now that im gaming again it feels great too just sit down and play a game and enjoy it, thanks for reading! |

I kid, I kid, i do not wish you a happy fourth of july
Anyway i recently picked up wolverine for the ps3 for 15 dollars at a pawn shop. now, keep in mind that i have only played a few hours of this game. I am enjoying it, although the flashback called the place they were at canada, not BC, canada, because we all know thats where it is. Not sure if i can recommend it for 60 but for 30 id say pick it up.Ive also been playing conflict denied ops(ps3) and i must say, the game is definetely not good ![]() i dont really want to expand on that... |

changing my gamertag, perhaps
By RobMinhas 07-04-2009 12:59 PM
|

Ive been considering changing my gamertag as of recently, just to have a cooler name and because my old gamertag is kind of lame. My old gamertag is Spartan 116 Rob, now before you get all up and at em, let me say, when i originally got my xbox i had no idea what xbox live was and i had halo, i assumed that it would be my name on the console, then my friends were like dude check this out so i started up and thinking it was online and for halo only i chose this gamertag, then i migrated and blah blah blah, you get it. And now the name seems kind of lame, im debating just doing Rob Minhas, or something involving alex mercer, devil may cry or Burnout paradise or left 4 dead. ONe thing is it cost 10 bucks(800 ms points) to do this
and i dont know if its worth it, any cags out there who think it is or isnt worth it id like to hear what you have to say and some new gamertags would be nice, especially if their funny =) |

general update, games and otherwise and help!

if you read my last blog, then you know about the crapload of stuff i bought. Well could someone help me out? Ive been trying to find a ready to print box art online for: Halo 3, Oblivion, Far cry 2 and perfect dark zero, i know i could resize them but that doesnt work too well for me, so if anyone can help me out id sure appreciate it! Anyway i got the new terminator game from a friend and ive got to say, its like gears of war, just without the stuff that makes gears gears. Im talking about executions and all the other good stuff. Cover based, you walk slow, easy enemies and tough enemies, lots of driving/shooting out of cars. And theres really crappy voice acting, which is emberassing to watch. Now i got fallout 3 a while ago and i just cant seem to get into it, not only is it ridiculously hard and i dont have like any ammo its just not the type of game that id go back too. The only reason i havent gotten rid of it yet is because i played 70 bucks for it. Horrible horrible...

A controversial ps3 blog
By RobMinhas 06-23-2009 01:16 AM
|

now for those of you who dont know i have a 3 part blog about the ps3 and i guess this is kind of part 3. I have played infamous, NFS undercover and cod 4. As far as gameplay goes the latter two play almost the same as thier 360 counter parts, although with nfs some of the changing of controls was the huges pain in the ass. Infamous was, just another sony exclusive that was good but sony fanboys thought it was the second coming. Anyway, the consensus
CONSENSUS: If you have a next gen console already and you have a computer, you really dont need a PS3, What does the ps3 do? It plays games, which is something and xbox 360 and even a wii do. It enables you to surf the internet, something a computer does do, it also does it faster(sometimes) and easier. So if you are a semi-hardcore casual gamer who already owns a computer, and you walk into a wal-mart or gamestop or whatever, think about the extra $200(360 arcade), $130 (wii), $100(360 pro) or zero dollars(elite... |
