China Bank

Slowly approaching the Chinese First National Bank in Beijing was Sam Fisher, the slickest, smoothest, and coolest secret agent spy around but this time his mission was not for good. The JBA (John Brown Army), the largest terrorist group in the world had hired Sam to do a little job for them. Sam was a double agent, a good and bad guy, and this factor nearly cost him his life on this mission.

“I’m here.” Said Sam. “Good, the bank will be heavily guarded so you need to find a new way through, just don’t get caught” said John Fren, Sam’s “friend” at the JBA. “Gotcha.” Sam replied. Sam slowly snuck up to the bushes beside the stairs leading to the front door of the bank. 3 guards stood in front of the door waiting for trouble to come just so they could kill it. Sam could see the look of hatred in their eyes and immediately looked away as Sam has had that look before. When his girl Sara had been killed by a drunk driver Sam was in pieces. When Sam saw her killer in court, the white-hot intensity of the sun burned in his eyes. The rage escaped him and he hurled himself at the man. Sam got 3 punches in the mans face which caused minor brain damage. Sam was escorted out of the courtroom. After a few weeks of mourning, Sam went back to the NSA. They told him that he was to become a double agent. Sam got sent to jail for robbery, and that’s how he meet the JBA and officially became a double agent. Now Sam is outside of the biggest bank in China trying to steal $10,000,000 worth of gold for the bad guys. Sam shrugged off the memories and continued on.

Sam found a back door to the bank. He jammed the snake cam under the door and saw an empty hallway in front of him. Sam took his lock pick and popped the locked door open. Sam slowly opened the door and stepped inside. Sam was in the back hallways where only the employees were allowed. Sam continued along the hallway. “Where the hell do I go now? This place is huge.” Asks Sam. “Don’t get cocky on me. Take a left up here and use the elevator and go up to the 3rd floor. Once you’re on the 3rd floor take a right when you step off the elevator. The safes should be right in front of you. Go for safe 1823 and 2845. They each have 5 million apiece in them. The code for 1823 is 5532 and the code for 2845 is 3422. Did you get all that Sam?” said John. “Oh sorry, I forgot to bring a pen and paper, next time put that on the supplies list.” Replied Sam. “Watch it smart ass, I can make one phone call and your busted.” “Ill try and remember that.” “Ugh” Sam, with a small smile on his face, got to the elevator and went to the 3rd floor. Sam approached Safe 1823 and punched in the code and the safe opened. Sam retrieved the gold inside and headed to the next safe. At safe 2845 Sam punched in the code but the same didn’t open. “John, you gave me a faulty code. 2845 wont open.” “Well we did have 2 options for that one, try 3242 for the code.” Replied John. Sam pushed in the code and the safe didn’t open. “Still not working John.” “Well I’m sorry Sam, just leave it.” “You mean I had to come all the way over here, risk my life and job and you don’t even have the right code?” said Sam. “What job. I thought your only job was for the JBA. You’re a trader! I’m calling the police right now. You have about two minutes to escape Sam. Burn in hell.” Sam quickly made his way back to the elevator and when the doors opened up on the first floor Sam was greeted by the 3 guards. Sam quickly picked out a smoke grenade from his belt and threw it on the ground. Dazed and confused the guards fell around coughing and trying to get away from the smoke. Sam ran past them and back out of the bank. Sam grabbed onto the fence surrounding the bank and hoped over just as 4 police cars arrived on the scene. Sam ran for 2 hours until he couldn’t run anymore. Sam was an enemy now. He had nowhere to hide. For the first time in years Sam said, “I quit.”

......to make another blog post. Yes its been well over a month since my last blog post. In that time I went to the beach and many other things. My summer is running low on time.

I was thinking about movies and songs and how they can make you cry but its hard for a videogame to. Many songs can make me shed a tear, mostly becuase I listen to country and alot of thier songs are sad. I guess becuase its harder to make a emotional connection with the gamers that play the games. While most movies are along the lines of 2 hours long, people can become more attached to them than people can to a videogame character who's game last 12 hours or more. Its a weird thing. I personally have never played a game that makes me cry. The upcoming Splinter Cell, I saw a shot where Lambert was sitting in a chair tied up and Sam was pointing a gun at him with terrorist standing around him and Lamber says "finish the mission." And I was thinking that it would be very sad to have to kill Lambert. I personally love Lambert as a videogame character and I dont want to kill him. I might be sad but I dont know if I would cry if I had to kill him. In Halo 3 if the Master Chief gets killed I will have a good chance of crying mostly becuase I love Master Cheif and would hate to seem him go. Sorry if this blog post is a little bit wussy but I have been thinking about alot of things lately and some are sad (memories of my grandfather)

Theres not much else to talk about. Ill make a better blog soon, HAP out.

Hey peoples. Hotapplepie is here to lay on a smooth and sentuous blog for everyone.

About 3 or 4 days ago I rented 2 more Xbox 360 games. The two games were Fight Night Round 3 and Tomb Raider:Legend. FNR3 is fun and has breathtaking graphics but the gamplay, which is juts boxing over and over again, can get very repeative. Right now Im just trying to get the last acheivement for the game and it will be the first game I have ever gotten all the points. There are only 8 acheivements that you can get which is extreamly low.

TR: Legend on the other hand is amasing. The graphics have been boosted alot to fit my Xbox 360 standards. The enviroments look 90% like real life. I am continually being amased by the graphics on this game. The gameplay is alot very refreshing to me. TRL is my first action/adventure game is a LONG time and I have to say, I have missed the genre. The puzzles are so hard sometimes though. I have to addmitt, I have had to you a walkthrough more than once. But I havent used cheats and dont plan to. A walk through is just helping you get through a puzzle. I have played for about 5 hours I think and just finsihed the Kazakastan level so I dont have that much more to go. I think this is the most underrated game on the Xbox 360.

I have finnally gotten past 3k gamerpoints for my 360. But I havent been on Xbox Live to update the points up to 3k yet. When I started renting those 2 games I only had 1800 something. Look how much it has changed.

Still waiting for the Prey Xbox 360 demo. The game looks stupendous. I have been around the 3d Realms Boards on ww.3drealms.com which has a Prey section. If you go there check out the Prey Fanart by GH Illustrations <----- theres the link to the thread. The guy is amasing. My s/n on that board is also Hotapplepie. In fact, if you ever see a Hotapplepie on a board, it is most likely me.

I wrote a review for Battlefield 2 Modern Combat for the 360

Thats all for now folks.

Hey everybody, this is my first blog in a while.

I started playing The Movies again. It used to run very slow on my sucky computer but I figured out that the grahpical settings were on medium so when I put it on low the game runs much better. I tottally forgot how fun it is to make movies and controll all my little actors and actresses. I might pick up The Stunts and Effects Pack soon. I will be great for all my action movies I like to make. I want to pick up a microphone too so I can add voices. Im going to start a series of movies simialr to the Star Wars and Halo universes. I want to make it about 4 movies. Im trying to make a great story to go with it. If only the computer the game is installed on had internet hooked up to it I could upload them so all could see. But anyways, the Movies is a awsome game, and GS gave it wayyy to low of a score.
