Empty Promises

Song of the Blog:

So recently I've been making blogs that just didn't feel all that natural. It got to the point where writing blogs seemed like a chore and I didn't want to write them. But now I figured out why that was. Its because I was thinking about the blogs I was going to write. I was typing from my head, not my gut. That isn't what blogging is about. Blogging is about sitting down at a computer and just telling people about whatever is on your mind or stuff like that. All my recent blogs have been about what i've been doing, and there were no rants, I didn't talk about what I was thinking, so im changing that.

First thing I want to talk about is how competitive I am at certain games. On Halo 3 I'm really competitive, I don't trash talk because my mic is broke, but i think that its better that my mic is broken. And its really only in Matchmaking that i'm competitive, never in custom games. I don't know why. When I play certain gametypes like capture the flag, or assualt I get really competitive. I tend to yell at my tv when people at really stupidly, I just find it to be really frustrating playing with people who don't have a clue on how to play. I used to play Lone Wolfs (free-for-all) in matchmaking, but Bungie changed the number of people in each match from 5 to 6. In most maps you don't really notice a difference, but on small maps like construct it gets really sh!tty. Whenever you attack some1else you either get double teamed or someone steals your kill. There is also more camping in that one map than everyother map combined. If bungie didn't make that change i would easily be level 50 in Lone Wolfs. In rumble pit there is this really cool gametype called 'swords'. in swords your only weapon is an energy sword, and im one of the best players with energy swords. The only problem is that there are still gernades and that makes it so that someone with no sword skills can easily steal a bunch of kills. I don't know why bungie has never fixed that.

However, on other games like Star Wars Battlefront II, or Frontlines: Fuel of War, I'm much less competitive and I really don't care if my team wins or loses. I think it just might be the way that you just join a game in progress or something like that.

I won't be home when the new episodes of avatar come out. I'll be on vacation in Cape Cod. So i'll have to watch them on youtube.

I think thats it for now
