I was in a designing mood today, so I fired up PS and my result was a new banner(see above) and this sig-

I really like the banner, the sig I did in about 10-15 minutes, so it might not be the best.

What do you guys think?

Yes I actually wrote a review like I said I would. This took a helluva a long time so I would really appreciate it if you guys would read it and recommend. Thanks

Wow this game is the ****! I haven't even touched Fallout 3 this weekend, it's that good. The highlight I would have to say is Horde. It's a fun mode where you and up to 4 friends battle wave after wave of Locust, and they get harder and harder as you go along. On top of that there are difficulty levels as well, and just like the campaign, it goes all the way from Casual to Insane. Even on Casual once you get up to the 40s, it is no walk in the park for experienced Gears players.

I would say the campaign has to be right up there with Horde as well, it has a very captivating story. I found myself saying I would quit on the next checkpoint/chapter, but I couldn't stop playing it. It does a great job of mixing in different types of gameplay instead of just run and gun the WHOLE time. No spoilers here, but I'm sure most of you already know there will be Gears 3.

Well I will get a full review for this and Fallout 3 up eventually, tho I probably have said that before and not done it. WTF I haven't even reviewed Halo 3?? But this time I will so watch for that in an upcoming blog.

Peace

Wow! That was my first impression when I first booted up the game today. I'm pretty sure I can already give this game a 10, despite only having played for an hour and a half.

Now I'm not going to spoil anything, but let's just say that was one of the most intense "intros" to a game that I have ever played. While it was similar to the beginning of Oblivion in many ways(for those of you who have played Oblivion) it was so much more in-depth, and actually gave you some choices that could be potentially important later on.

I have been referring to it as "Oblivion with guns" which may not be the most accurate statement, but it is definitely not a bad thing. Since I am an Elder Scrolls nut, I see nothing wrong with inputting some of the things that made Oblivion so great into Fallout. All I can say is I can not wait to play more, too bad I am going to be extremely busy till the weekend.

In other news, I am nearing Level 38, the Texans are on a 3-game winning streak, the Phillies are about to win the World Series, NBA season is starting, Michigan sucks, TCU is pwning, Obama scares me, and I am extremely sexy.

Peace

The title does not lie, we have a giant, very dangerous hurricane heading our way in Texas. Hurricane Ike will likely be a category 3 or 4 storm when it makes landfall Friday night or early Saturday morning.

So wish me the best, we are not evacuating, and hopefully we will be all right here. School was cancelled for me tomorrow, and it could possibly be cancelled Monday as well. Though it is a very dangerous storm, I am a little excited to see what happens, as I have never been in a hurricane this powerful.

I probably will be without power this weekend so I will not be able to be on here. I'll try and take some pictures if I can and post them here. I'm just hoping our house and our family stays in one piece.
