This post is going to be about my experiences on using Camtasia Studio 5.
When I first started screen recording I used something called hypercam. Let me tell you, it sucked like hell.

I then started using camstudio. This was OK but there were 3 problems that I had with it.
1) The quality was not awesome.
2) Sometimes when I tried recording the codec would switch from divx to Microsoft 1.
3) Usually when I finished recording and tried to save it would come up with a stupid error message.

So then I saw a video that was nearly full screen and had amazing quality. I PM'ed that guy and he told me he payed for camtasia 5.

So I got camtasia 5 as well.



Here are some PROS & CONS of camtasia studio 5.

Pros

1) It had a very smooth autopan
2) The recording showed your Mic volume
3) The screen recording was crisp and clear
4) You could change the Mic settings in camtasia while or after recording so it is clear
5) You can set a frame rate for the recording
6) When you import a video you can add transitions for a professional look
7) At full screen there is the zoom-in-pan tool which automatically zooms in an area for you
8) You can add notations to the video
9) With music and audio you can fade in and out
10) Also with music and audio you can remove noise and change volume
12) When producing a movie you can apply it to your settings for high quality or low quality


Cons

1) Sometimes when I stop a recording it will come up with an error message
2) The quality can turn out low
3) At times the pause and play buttons do not work
4) When making title clips and importing onto the time-line they can become very tiny
5) Processing videos can take from 10 - 30 minutes.

This video has been speeded up yet it still has amazing quality.

About 5 - 6 months ago, I bought the Sony Bravia HD TV 32". Since I've used it so long, now it is time for a review. So, readers, here it is!

Good aspects

1) The first good aspect is the HD quality. For me, it has been amazing. It has worked like an angle with my ps3, as well as my blue ray movies.

2) The user friendliness is amazing. As soon as I turned on the TV I was able to navigate and edit the system settings with ease.

3) The large screen definitely satisfies me. There is no blur unless the quality of the video is horrible.

4) It has the energy saving options.

5) The HDMI cable is awesome for my PS3


Bad aspects

From what I have experienced, I cannot find a bad aspect for the Sony Bravia. It is a truly amazing TV. I have never had a TV bigger than 15 inch, and my last TV was a small 15 inch Sanyo TV that lasted 9 years. It still works. I have it right next to me.

The majority of people who have a computer, have Microsoft windows computer. Their computer companies are from a range of HP to Dell to Asus etc...

But there is the Apple Imac .


















Pros

1) It is space efficient due to its single screen
2) There is a lot of power with in an Imac
3) You can get 24" screen. You don't have to buy cinema display!
5) Imacs are great for creating HD movies
6) They carry nvidia Geforce graphics cards ranging from 256 - 512.
7) They can work at great speed
8) Their interface is well designed
9) You can make movies at low file size. Great for youtube.
10) Great for using photoshop, flash, etc...
11) Since Macs are not as popular, they have less viruses.
12) There are very few wires needed, unlike PC


Cons

1) They have bad compatibility with many programs due to OSX
2) Many games such as fallout 3, do not work on OSX
3) Due to the processor being built into the screen there is less power
4) It is harder to upgrade
5) If the screen breaks, the whole system is dead
6) Windows can do nearly everything a Mac can do
7) Imacs are expensive
8) Switching from windows to mac can be confusing


12 Pros for Imac. 8 Cons for Imac.

However, if you are a gamer, then no, you should not go for the Imac, go for windows. If you just want a fast computer, but not a gamer, go for the Imac.

As for me, I want the Imacs power, with gaming. But I would just go with windows. Im a gamer ;).

I have really wanted an IPod touch. I was thinking of a laptop but how about an Ipod Touch. Much more efficient!

WHY?









"IPod Touch with ear buds connected"














Well here are some of the reasons.
1) Internet. I can’t always go on the internet, or take the internet with me. With the IPod Touch, I can!












"The IPod Touch uses the Safari Browser"









2) Games. My DS is broken, and I want fun games. IPod Touch. Voted best gaming console of the year.

















"The IPod Touch has many games"









3) Music. I have so much music on my computer. Actually once i only had 100 kb left on my pc. I deleted all my music, I had freed up 10 GB.














"With 8GB to 32 GB you can store loads of songs and movies"








4) BBC I Player. I miss loads of TV shows due to homework, school, work and work. So when I am in bed I can watch some. Pretty neat huh.











"Watch TV In your hand"








5) I get ALOT of email. I can check them all on the IPod Touch.
















"Google mail is my fav mailing client"









6) Lost! What do I do… Get my IPod Touch and go on the map. Find out where I am!



"If your lost, it wont be much of a problem ;) "





7) YouTube. You don’t know how much I love watching YouTube vids. Why not on my hand!


"Watch Lol vids at your hand"






8) I find a really good pic, I can show my friends. Or a really good video (wink wink)



"AHAHAHAHA PWNED!"





9) Calendar and events. It’s a bit like a time table, so when your coffee time is starting it will give you a notification.


"It aint much but its good"






10) Sports. You can find out how far you have run, burnt calories etc...



"How far, fast, much can you run?"





Ok so those are the MAIN features of the IPod touch. But there are millions more.

An awesome gadget. Must buy!

Anyways, thanks for reading. PLEASE comment, tag, bookmark our site and this post!

Everyone has an mp3, or a phone that can handle mp3's or ipods. Most people bring em to school wanting to listen to them but can never get the chance. Well... here are some tips!


1) Sit in the corner of the back of a class
2) If possible, make sure your face is hidden
3) Thread the wires through your
sleeves and hold one ear bud in your hand and put your hand on your ear and lie it down. It will look as though you are bored.
4) If you have any cool teachers that don't care if you use ipods etc... take the advantage!
5) If your lunchtime is worthless to you then go to the toilets or a hidden area a listen to your music

About a 6 months ago, i bought a pair of headsets for £9 from Tesco. Pretty expensive!

This is what it looked like


This headset is greatly designed to LOOK ergonomic. However, in reality, its utter shit.

I put these headphones on and after 15 minutes the edge of my ears are sore and red.

The mic broke after 5 days of good care.

One of the headphones broke after my brother dropped it. WTF!

So what did i do after the whole thing was trash. Well, i just took from the table, walked to the garage, and put it in the big green bin!

What did i buy after these were disposed.

I bought a pair of these dudes for £4-5 quid. Cheap!

I got them off amazon, good deal they were. Keep in mind i do a lot of market research before buying an electronic.

You can ask my friend Yasser if you want. But these headphones are really good. They keep my ears a bit too warm but hey! Lol.

They are still awesome, microphone quality is amazing, but it can be faulty at time, but still, for a fiver, its a good deal!

So there you have it, cheap headsets are better if you are not being ripped of by Tesco!

EVERY SINGLE PERSON WANTS A GOOD GRAPHICS CARD!

Am i right, or am i right? Well, in this case, most people who are into games want to get the best graphics.

So now, you have an awesome graphics card in your computer, but do you want to boost it even more.

Here are 3 of the top tips!

1) Use windows classic theme!

2) Disable appearance, and switch to performance!

3) Disable unneeded background programs.

These are the 3 tips that have worked for me in the past. But you dont just want to know about them, you want them explained, and told over again. Well, if thats what you want, then read on my little reader.




1) Use windows classic theme!

This may annoy many people but let me tell you, most gamers out there want the best performance for their games, and setting the theme to classic may not do a whole lot, but it will definitely make if faster by THAT much.

2) Disable appearance, and switch to performance!

Right click on my computer > properties > advance > performance > settings > adjust for best performance.

This, depending on your computer hardware, can either make your computer go from slug slow to ninja fast. Especially if you have a single core processor!

3) Disable unneeded background programs.

While you are reading this, press ctrl + alt + del. Windows task manager should come up. Now go to processes. At the bottom left and corner it should say how many processes are active. If you have over 100, then keep reading, if you have around 50 or lower, then your probably ok.

Anyways, you need to disable these processes. In order do this, click start, run, and type in msconfig.

Now click on the startup tab. There you will see the start up items. Dissable the programs that you do not use, or will never use again.

This will help the preformance of your pc, and start up speed as well.


Here is one of my videos about speeding up your pc. However this could help in gaming as well.
(keep in mind i made this video 2 years ago which is why i sound like a 5 year old.)

I am sure that once in anybodies lifetime, someone has desired a gaming laptop. However, they were unable to buy one, due to the price of the laptop.

Others go to well known laptops for gaming such as alienware or hp voodoo etc… However, you can get a laptop just as good for gaming and speed for much cheaper, by the same company.

I was on hp laptops, and found out about the hp performance and entertainment series. I looked at the hp pavilion dv7t and the HDX 16. In my opinion, the dv7t is better since it has an ATI graphics card. I have seen too many broken laptops with Nvidia cards.

Anyways, I then searched customised the hp pavilion dv7t and got these results.

Components

* • Espresso Black
* • Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (32-bit)
* • Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo Processor P8600 (2.4 GHz)
* • 4GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm)
* • 500GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection
* • 1GB ATI Mobility Radeon(TM) HD 4650
* • 17.3" diagonal HD+ High-Definition HP BrightView Infinity Widescreen Display (1600 x 900)
* • $50 OFF!! Blu-Ray ROM with SuperMulti DVD+/-R/RW Double Layer
* • [For BrightView Infinity Display] Webcam + Fingerprint Reader
* • Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N Mini-card
* • No TV Tuner w/remote control
* • HP Color Matching Keyboard
* • 8 Cell Lithium Ion Battery
* • Mobile Stereo Earbud Headphones (1 pair)
* • Integrated 56K Modem
* • Microsoft(R) Works 9.0
* • Computrace LoJack for Laptops, One Year
* • 1-year HP Accidental Damage Protection with Pick Up and Return

Price: $1,705.97
£1,155.14

This may seem a lot to you, but don’t about the price, think about the product itself. Apparently, the 1gb ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 is the third best graphics cards on laptops. It has 4 gig of ram, a good processor speed, Lojack for protection. The hp voodoo may have better graphics cards however, it lacks processor speeds.

2.26 ghz + 1 ATI 4560 is worse than
2.4 ghz + 512 ATI 4560.

Anyways, the hp pavilion dv7t is better looking, and has better specs. It fit to play many games, even crisis!

Here is a picture of the hp pavilion dv7t

This game is an RPG for the Gamboy Advance.

It tells the tale of the world of Weyard and how 4 heroes must save the world against the forces of evil o_O

The game starts in the hometown of the main hero Isaac, in the village Vale. There is a mountain in the game north of Vale in which elemental stones lie, 4 in total.
The 'baddies' in the game try to steal the stones but fail causing a boulder to fall from the mountain and destroys Vale, the game is then set years later, and Isaac, his best friend Garet and Jenna another friend and a scholar Kraden decide to go in the mountain known as Mt.Aleph.

Once they reach the summit, they discover the elemental stars and the baddies come from nowhere and demand them, they take the scholar and Jenna captive and take 3 of the gems when suddenly the mountain starts to erupt.

Then a floating rock with an eyeball saves the trapped Isaac and Garet whilst the others escape, the wise one says to collect the remaining elemental stones/stars to prevent the worlds destruction.

So now, the game actually begins, it has a massive world map, lots of side-quests and tons of magics/weapons/amours/items to browse/use and loads of enemies to kill.

The battle system is 100% turn based and the game has some nice graphics for GBA.. the music is also nice too.

The whole idea of the 4 elemental stars is to stop the baddies Saturos and Menardi from lighting the 4 lighthouse beacons placed in opposite end of th world, in this game, only 2 lighthouses are available (other 2 in the sequel Golden Sun : Lost Age).

This game has summons to use as well, and has many bosses, puzzles, dungeons , caves etc to go through, its a long game, and can be played repeatedly without boredom.

Perhaps one of the best games for the GBA as said by many sites/magazines etc
The game ends after the baddies are defeated in the 2nd lighthouse, and Isaac goes in search of Jenna's brother Felix, who vows to light he remaining beacons [he is a baddy in this but a good guy in Golden Sun 2 (main character)]

Anyways, they get a Lemurian Ship and go sailing and the game ends, at the end of the credits, there is a short clip which shows a part of Golden Sun 2.

All in all its an awesome game.

Shaks

The last time I played Golden sun 2, properly, was probably around 2 years ago. I loved this game so much, great game, nothing better.
Actually, I got the game when my cousin, he lives somewhere to the south of London, and he is much older than me, but he showed me Golden Sun 2 on his GBA.

I remember clearly when I used to visit him every 4 – 6 months that he used to be on Golden Sun, and show me random awesome movies. However, since I was so young and uninterested in RPG’s then (I was more interested in games such as Spyro).

When he showed me Golden Sun 2, and Fire Emblem, I just wanted to get FE. Fortunately, when I went to the games shop to buy FE, they were sold out, and I say fortunately, because if it had not been for the fact that FE was sold out I would not have gotten GS2.

When I got GS2 I was on it for days on end. I played it, then played it, then played it. I also got extremely agitated at time due to the amount of repeating steps just to get one action to follow (Magma Rock was the worst).

What I liked about GS2 was the variety of weapons, story line, the funny moments, the characters, etc…

The worst part I had in the game at all was when I was fighting the last boss. I was under-levelled, and fighting the doom dragon was a pain. I had nearly killed the damn thing, but it used “cruel ruin”. The battle took me 1 hour 45 minutes, and it was all wasted.

When I had finished GS2 I was really annoyed, I didn’t know what to do, so I started playing Spyro again, however, it was not the same. So…. I decided to play the game AGAIN. Keep in mind I was only around 9 – 10 when I played GS2.

When I restarted, I played through the game with ease since I started the new game at the level I was (lv 49)

After that, I don’t remember much, but what I do remember after I played the game again another 5 times was this.

Every time I restarted, I got a few levels higher. It first increased by 40, then 20, then 10, etc… Getting harder and harder.

However, at the end, in the cave that the turtle takes you into, I fought blue birds, which after a long time got me to lv 99.

After lv 99, I took on the doom dragon for fun, and it was killed with 10 – 15 hits with the soul blade.

Anyways, GS2 is an amazing game, and if you want to play it, either buy it, or download the rom and emulator, you will not doubt one moment, except maybe Magma Rock and the Doom dragon :/.

As always, I add a video to my posts, so here is one just for you guys! Oh and its at lv 99 like my one.

I have recently written a fallout 3 review on this blog, if you wish to read it then click here.

This post is about how to get a good start on fallout 3.

When you first start Fallout 3, you are being born. You are then allowed to choose what you want to look like when you are 19.
*Either choose preset versions,
*Either choose your own made version





When you have done this, you select done, and then you are forwarded 1 year where you are a baby.

You are now instructed to walk to your father, then he tells you something unimportant. You are then left alone in the pen. Since your father underestimates your intelligence, you get out of the pen with ease, and then read the special book. Here you can choose what your special is to be. S.P.E.C.I.A.L, stands for:



STRENGTH ,PERCEPTION, ENDURANCE, CHARISMA, INTELLIGENCE, AGILITY, and LUCK. Choose what you want.



You are then forwarded 9 years and you are on your 10th birthday, you have to talk to many people, then go to the labs on the lower level. You are given a BB gun that is used to shoot the radroach.












You are forwarded 7 years and you are 16. You have to take the GOAT test. The last question is the worst, the answer is The overseer.
I recomend you to go to the teacher, and talk to him, and choose the rudest and most negative reply. This then enables you to choose your taged skills.
I would choose Small guns, lock pick or sneak, science or medecine. I chose Small guns, Melee and lock pick. I absolutely love melee.

Once you have chosen your tags, you are to walk around and then you are transported 3 years forward.Your dad has escaped, and your only friend, gives you a pistol. Get out of the vault, and if you so wish, save buches mother, and kill the overseer, who cares about him, right?


Once you are out, you are ready to roll. The first place to go is megaton, search around the wasteland untill you find a big metal cone on the surface of the wasteland. Once you walk up to it, the door will auto. Walk further and open the gates.

The sheriff will now talk to you. You tell him your details, he will help you. He will also ask you to deactivate the bomb in the center of megaton. If your explosive skill is too low then try this.

*You go to moria brown, and wait until she has a pistol like yours. (Her stock changes every 3 days) and make

sure it is a 10 mm pistol.
*Sell your pistol.
*She now has two, and you have some money.
*Now, buy the cheaper of the two pistols.
*Now, sell the pistol you have JUST bought.
*Now buy the cheaper of the two.
*When you have done the last part, "buy the cheaper of the two", the pistol will become full condition.
*You can now sell the full condition verion back, and buy it back, then sell it, making profit all the time.
*If you do not have enough money then try selling things that you find around and outside megaton.

Now, you have some money, ie. caps. Wait untill the time is 9 to 10 oclock pm. Go to Walters place, and you shall find a man sitting at the computer. Talk to him and he will sell you mentants. Now eat a few mentants, and go back to the bomb before they ware off, and deactivate the bomb.

In the morning, talk to the sheriff, and he will give you the house, and 100 caps, (500 caps if you won the speach)

Now you have your own house, some money, and a good pistol. You are now in good shape to start playing fallout 3 properly.

Also, here is a tip for all you small gun hungry people.

Go outside, and then go left of megaton and there should be a few dogs and molerats. Kill them, and you get xp. Go up to lv 3 - 5.

Now buy a good gun such as a hunting rifle, and buy some shells with it.






Go out side of megaton, get your pistol, shoot the robot anywhere, run behind a rock, get your hunting rifle out, and wait for the sherif. Kill the sherif, and then you should have a key, a chinese assult rifle, and a suit.

Now make sure your lv 4 or higher for this part. After you have the key, go to the armory, and there will be a robot on guard. Kill it. Now you have access to lots of guns. Save some in your house though.

So now you have some guns and some mole rat meat, and armour. You are ready to set off on your adventure.

Here are a few videos from








































Thanks for watching, reading, observing so much. It took a very long time to make this post.

Please please PLEASE comment, it would mean very much to me.

The snes version of Chrono Trigger is by far my favorite version of Chrono Trigger.
Reason why is because the graphics are more original, and the pixels are larger, the game it self is original.

The word of this post; Original


The DS version of Chrono trigger is great, yes, but i dislike it for the reason that after playing snes for a VERY long time, and getting the best Armour, and going to lv 56, i am glad i have finished it.

However, to just stick the same game again, exactly the same, except for the additional port, is just plain lazy. What were you thinking?

If you are a person who likes to play the original game on a original console then get Chrono Trigger Snes. You can download it if you wish, by downloading the emulator, and the ROM.

However, if you don't have a SNES or do not have enough time on the computer due to little siblings or older brothers or sister, or maybe even parents then get it on DS.

I greatly wished the DS had a whole new game, instead of sticking the same game in again but just adding numerous amounts of cut scenes and crappy music, (its pretty good for the fantasy genre :P). I saw many videos, all of which were fake, but made a bubble of excitement. Some videos showed Chrono Trigger with 3D graphics, others showed it with improved graphics, while the others showed it with a new map, and a new person.

Well, enough about the ds version, its good, but its just a remake of the original, which is crappy.

The SNES version is to my liking. I played it for hours upon end, and it was great just like all the other RPG games.

At first i thought it beat Golden Sun, my all time favorite RPG, however, it didn't, it was a VERY CLOSE, battle, and Golden Sun won with music, and game play.

What i liked the most about Chrono Trigger was the fact that you could travel in time, and change history which changed the future, then change the future, and see what happens, then talk to some one, then go back to the past, and change the past, then talk to them, and then go even further in the past, change that, then go back to the future and then talk to them and they turn into an evil monster like this O_O.






















Hehe, well not like that, but they just muck up.

Also, there are many secrets towards time traveling. In Chrono Trigger you find random stones and chests. If you go to the past, and click on all of them, and open them, you get a Blue chain mail, or chain help etc... However, if you click on them, and leave them, then go to the future, then open them you get stronger weapons.

The game has lots of features, and you can customize layouts, and change characters.

The characters are
Chrono
Marle
Lucca
Frog
Robo
Ayla
Magus

My formation for the last battler was
Chrono
Ayla
Robo

Chrono is good for the sword attack. Ayla is amazing at physical damage. Robo was for destruction and laser healing.

Altogether, I was able to do a black twister attack which was powerful but used up a lot of mp.

Here is a video i made of the last battle. This video of mine is by far my favorite.



Sorry about the flashing at the last part of those 3 ANNOYING things.

Anyways, i really like Chrono Trigger. Its a really good game, you have to play it.

I hope you enjoyed this post, please comment.

I was recently watching TV after a long day of school doing maths, physics, English, etc....

So I sat down on the sofa, and put the TV on, and it’s giving adverts. Normally i would just change the channel, however, just as the ad was ending, something caught my eye.

This is what I saw.

Now this may have looked like a fake in the good old days, or just some other rubbish sequel. But we don't really know till we try it out, right???

But I don’t have a wiki, what do I do? I can either get a wiki, or just hope it comes out for ps3.

Lately, I have been seeing many games come out exclusive on many consoles. For example, killzone2 on ps3, halo 4 recon (soon on Xbox 360 exclusive) and now sonic on wii.

So as much as you want this game, this AWESOME game, to be on ps3, or Xbox, it’s too bad, because this time, wii has it. And they should have it, the wii NEEDS some attention.

Think about all the battles of consoles. It has been Xbox 360, vs. ps3.
* Oh ps3 has better graphics
* Oh wait, Xbox 360 has better connection
* Oh wait, ps3 can shoot lasers and kill burglars
* Shut up, Xbox has a super boosting system that can make you travel at 1bizillion mps

.........-_-.............

* Wii is bad, it has such bad graphics

well, in my opinion, wii may have bad graphics but it is fun. Not many people have thought about Nintendo’s series. They have put fewer graphic, and more fun.

My ways of thinking are

Simplicity = fun
Simplicity + fun = user friendly
User Friendly = More popularity



Sonic and the black knight should be a new revolution for the wii, and for sonic. In my opinion, MUCH better than an emo hedgehog with a few machine guns fighting for evil.

Here is a video of Sonic and the Black Knight. Sent by machinima

MGS4 was a top rated game for over a year on sites such as gamespot or ign. MGS4 was made by Konami, and is a legendary game. However, once played, the spirit is lost.

MGS4 starts of with a place in the middle east. You are too weak to kill anything too strong such as gekkos, and enemy people. You will have to sneak past all of them by playing dead and blending in with the ground colour. If they spot you, you will have a chance of escaping, but the likely hood of being caught again would be high.

Gekkos come later in the game when you are to defeat them. They are not a hard enemy but if you are facing more than one, then the battle may become double if not triple, the size.

A Gekko in real life is a lizard. In mgs4, they are large robots with two legs and a head which consists of a rocket launcher and a machine gun. These are similar to the big white monsters in starwars, however, the speed and agility of Gekkos are VERY VERY high compared to starwars white things.

MGS4 will start of as an easy operation with well lighted areas such as the forests, cliffs or the middle east. however, it will soon drag into endless maps of metal areas, or blizzard hills which can give you a headache.

The best and utmost awesome areas of mgs4 are; Graphics, Cutseans, Story.

MGS4 graphics is not like Crysis, however, it is amazing throughout cutseans as well as gameplay. You can sense many movements, and the range is very high.

MGS4 cutseans are similar to a cinema movie. The cutseans are full of stories and explanations that will make you laugh, get aggravated, and want to fight. However, you can skip them, but this will loose the spirit of the game.

MGS4 story is the best out of all 3 factors. It all builds up and gives you a sense of playing more. I myself started playing 1 hour a day on mgs4, but soon the story became gripping and glued. I started going to 2 hours, then 3, then 5 hours on the week ends.

The game becomes very tense at the end, especially when Snake was crawling through the tunnel nearly dieing.

After the game ends, depression settled in for a few days, but then i was ok.

In my opinion, MGS4 is a grate game, but it can get boring at times, near the metal snowy area. The metal spiders are the most annoying creatures, while the funnest area is in London. If you have a sniper rifle that can shoot sleep bullets, rage bullets, etc... or just any old sniper rifle, it is best used in London. Very fun. Also, MGS4 has the best

movies i have seen. Amazing.

MGS4 is a must buy for anyone looking for a revolutionary game. As golden sun got me into rpg games, MGS4 got me into shooting games.

Hopefully that will help you.

Sorry but this is just a small intro review, a full review would have been over 5 pages long, and i, at the moment, do not have time. Maybe during the week end i shall have time to write a FULL review of mgs4.

Here are a few pictures to cover up for the small review.

Fallout 3 is a RPG shooter set in the year 2077 after a radiation bomb set alight in America. Fallout 3 is set in Washington DC.


The game starts off with you being born and customising how you look in the future. Your mother is then dieing and you are transported forward by one year.

On the first you have to go towards your dad and then told about your mother. You then need to get out of the pen and read the your S.P.E.C.I.A.L book. The book tells you about each skill and at the end, lets you add and take away points. SPECIAL stands for speed, perception, endurance, charisma, intellegence, agility and luck.

You are then transported 9 years, meaning you are 10. You are set in a birthday party and you get your pipboy 3000, wheer you can change your weapons, eat and drink to increase health, wear armour, check skills and exp points as well as the map, and much more. You are then given a bb gun and asked to test it out.

6 years later you are given your GOAT test. You go in a class and answer the question. The last question is one answer. The overseer. However, when you go to talk to the teacher, tell them that you do not like your job in the unkindest way possible in the dialect. You will then be given permission to change your stats.

3 years later your father has escaped and now it is your turn. Go around, save Butches mum if you wish so, kill the overseer if you want, and then run.

You are in the wasteland, the deadliest place. Your first bet is to go to Megaton. Its a little town where they sell all your needs, and if you deactivate the bomb, you get your very own house. You can also buy weapons, misc and armour from Moria. Also, you can get health from the doc, and fix the pipes in megaton for money by talking to Walters.

The sherif is the main person in town, but in all, Megaton is a good place for the whole game.

After this, you talk to bartender, and he tells you where your dad is. You are set off on your quest, although i would recomend leveling up by killing molerats and dogs, as well as raiders if you are able to.

The game becomes harder and harder with more supermutants, but at lv 20, you are king of the wastelands. A super mutant should be like a molerat at lv 3.

It is a 300+ hour game, and the colectables are unique. If you collect all items, it will go towards 500+ hour game minimum.


Here is one 1 out of 100 videos of fallout 3





Fallout 3 is a must buy for anybody. In my opinion, it beats farcry and COD series. If your getting a new game, get Fallout 3.

Have any of you heard of the pc game called "Crysis". It is exclusive pc, so xbox and ps3 folks, sorry.

It is a game with, in my opinion, bad game story line, but amazing graphics. Actually, the graphics are so detailed that the game cannot run on most systems at full quality. Maybe on medium or low. However, the graphics are still amazing no matter what quality, unless the goes through the boundaries of big blocked pixles.

In the game you can zoom in through trees and find one sniper around 1 km away. But the games "WOW" of graphics does not last long. Once you get used to the the graphics you may be.... "uuugh, so boring, what to do."

Well, why not mod it. There are many ways to mod, from mapping, to scripting, to coding, to creating a whole new character.

The modding could take from 1 hour to 1 month depending on how much detail you want to go through.

However, even though modding keeps your spirit alive for Crysis, it wont last for ever. But it is still fun.

Here is an amazing video about Crysis mass physics. [I don't know what mass physics is, but it is pretty amazing ;)]



Thank you for this video Abadfeeling

I was browsing through youtube when i was bored and i clicked on my homepage and then i saw a random video on my subscriptions box. It was a picture of a cartoon horse with a hat. It looked even more boreing so i didnt watch it. 

This is an RPG on the Nintendo DS. Originally this game was for SNES then PSone, then the GBA and eventually the proper remake came for the DS.

The one for all the consoles except DS had the same old style graphics, although great gameplay.
DS made full use of its potential and created this new 3-D version complete with animated scenes with voiceovers and a nice FMV at the begininning of the game.

The game tells the story of Cecil, a knight of Baron, and how he becomes from a dark knight wroking for an imposter king, to a Paladin, warrior of light so to speak..
Kain, Cecil's rival and friend in battle accompanies him in his journey.
The king sends Cecil and Kain off to a village to supposedly deliver a ring, little do they know, its actually a ring of fire, which ends up destroying the whole village, a girl called Rydia, a summoner in the game eventually joins your team.
Cecils 'lover' Rose, also joins your team and a ninja from the castle Elban called Edge joins your team too.
This is your main team throughout the game, although other characters join your team temporarily.
The actual game is about gathering 4 light crystals and 4 dark crystals from the Overworld and the Underworld before Cecil's enemy Golbez (his brother which you find out later on) does.
The story has a lot of depth and is quite enjoyable and serious too.
The fighting system is quite good too, its turn based but for each characer to attack etc a gauge bar must fill up, you can control the speed of this bar in the options for fast or slow battles.
This game is VERY hard if you are playing it for 1st time, you must muster tactics for the bosses at the end of each 'level'(level meaning like cave, dungeon scattered accross the 2 worlds etc) each boss is very tough in the game and require difficult tactics as opposed to just attacking to defeat, this makes the game quite a challenge.
Eventually, Golbez sees sense by his uncle Fusoya, and travels to the moon with him (lolwut)..
Anyways, you can travel the big wide worlds (Over and Underworld) each which has many places to visit and dungeons etc to master.
You can use various ships/boats etc to travel to every inch of the world maps.
Eventually again, you get a ship Lunar Whale, which travels to the moon.
The point of this is to go the Crystal Palace thingy which is on the moon, and to go to the core of the moon through it to defeat the last boss Zemus.
The game can be played 3 times total on a same save file, and on the 2nd and 3rd time its played through, you can fight super bosses which adds the impossibility feature on this game..
It is nigh upon impossible to defeat these bosses even when all your characters are maxed stats and levels, adds something work for i guess..
Game is a must buy in my opinion.
Thanks for reading.

The ps3, xbox and wii are all the new generations of consoles after the ps2, xbox, and gamecube.

However, the sales have been considerably different from the last generations.

Last generation, ps2 got the most sales, then xbox, then wii.

This generation, xbox and wii started with the most amount of sales, while ps3 had the least.

Reasons for this were simple mistakes that sony made.
1) Xbox 360 was released before the ps3.
2) PS3 and wii were let out on the same day
3) PS3 was very expensive while wii was cheap. Which would you have bought???
4) The xbox and ps3 had similar games but xbox was cheaper
5) The xbox had halo 3


After release the xbox 360 started getting what was known as "the red ring of death". This was an error of the xbox 360 where the xbox would heat up to such an extent that it froze. There are many videos about the xbox red ring of death.

The red ring of death is still frequent, however, it is not AS frequent as when it was released.


After 1-2 years, the sales have changed. View the changes here

We do not know if the link is biased, but there is definitely a change in sales for the ps3.

However, the WII is most likely at the top of the sales.

For my music production in school Ive been doing several parts. For this term Ive been doing composing music on Sibelius. Sibelius is a program where you can compose music on a sheet, then play through it.

I am not that bad at Sibelius, however i am not excellent. I got the top grade for my last piece of work.

Anyways, i was randomly thinking of midi music, and thought about all the rpg games i have played that had music perfect for midi.

I searched games such as: Golden sun 1/2 (all time fav), Final Fantasy 4, Final Fantasy 7, Chrono Trigger...etc....

I found a few hundred on rpggamers. I thought i might as well download all of them. Although, who can be bothered to download each one one at a time when there is over 150. Quickest way to download hundreds of files all at one go is to use downthemall.
Right click the page, and select down them all, and select your download file type. The files with ticks will be the files that are going to be downloaded.

So far i have downloaded over 600 midis and have used up around 12 - 15 MB.

However, i have not had the TIME to listen to ALL of them. I have most likely only listened to around 10 - 20.

Why don't you try downloading some midis, and try editing them on programs such as anvil studio. Sibelius, unfortunately, is not free.

Search your favorite games that have amazing music that you would very much like to listen to and add to your videos.

Killzone 2 is the new game that is released exclusive on PS3.

The games is very popular. I myself, have not yet got it. However, i am planning exceedingly to buy the game very soon. Hopefully i will get permission and have enough time to play.

The game was released on 27th of February. However, it is already out of stocks in most gaming, general stores, super markets, or any other shop that sells games/kill zone 2; after 2 weeks.

This, in my opinion, is an amazing success for the makers of Kill Zone 2, Guerrilla Games.

Some people say that this raised the sales of the ps3. Others say different. What do you think?

Here is a video dedicated to the post topic.

Hey guys. Ive just made this blog, im not really sure how blogs work, however im sure i will get sued to the idea. Hopefully it wont be too hard.
