Happy Birthday America! It's about time, I've been waiting like 11 or 12 months for your birthday. Remember last year where we did nothing all day and then blew stuff up that night? Man, I love hanging out with you. Happy 233rd birthday.

We are lucky MJ wasn't a fan of America or he would have tried to steal your thunder and die today. Douche.

More like Ninja Gay-den

Argh! This game is so freakin hard! Why would someone be such a jerk in 1989 and make a game that is this hard?

It's not unusually hard, until you get to the end. Then it's near impossible, unless you have memorized the stupid pattern in an expert manner. Then if you die on the boss you get thrown back like 4 checkpoints! Why!? Why would you do this to me Itagaki!?

I've got a joke.

Why can't a starfish ever find love? Because he's asexual.

or maybe I should have said she is asexual, whatevs.

WTMFF?!?

2009-04-16T20:22:00.000-07:00

Okay, seriously, what is going on?

Can I just play now...

2009-04-08T16:04:00.001-07:00

I want to play games now. And not games on my NES or SNES or N64. I want to play 360, no, scratch that. I want to play Halo 3, right now. The Mythic Map Pack came out and I don't have an Xbox to play them on. It's stupid I know, but all I want to do now adays is play.

Well, that being said, let's get real for a bit. I mainly talk about games on this blog which is a problem now that I don't really have newer games to play or anything to play them on. I did watch some skirmish of Halo Wars played the other day. Seemed decent, but maybe I'll start talking about my old skool games I has.

Mario 3 is so stupid hard! I could beat this game in under half an hour as a kid, and now I can't even get to World 8! WTF? You serious? I think the problem is I play the rom of it on my phone and the phone's joypad is nowhere near as responsive as the NES one. I guess I've had to readjust for my phone and can't seem to get back to playing on the original joypad. Stupid Nintendo, stop making cool things. Oh, wait, they did back in 2000. Way to go Miyamoto.

And North Korea... STFU. You launch your own missles, the world launches them back. Get it together or get rid of Kim Jong Ill.

Remember that gopher from 'Caddyshack'?

2009-02-12T14:23:00.000-08:00

I was thinking to myself today and this is how it went.

"Self (I call myself 'self' whenever I talk to myself), why in the world do people actually think I (I don't call myself 'self' when I'm talking about me) am listening to them?"

And before self could answer...

"Why can't people realize, like we have (self was very confused at this time), that you don't need to talk all the time. Sometimes a little introspection goes really far. It helps iron out the wrinkles (and non-wrinkles) in my day."

It was at this time self spoke, and I went into a coma.

The doctor said that I wouldn't have made it through the night (as I had been walking naked through the woods in January when I collapsed) had no one found me. I'm sure glad Bigfoot (Sam, or Samson Selina Sasquatch for long) is my friend (story for another time), as self would have been no help.

*means "I love you" in Dinosaur.

Just thought you should know, not that it's important information to you at anytime in the future, more in the past. Imagine waking up tomorrow and you have invented a time machine! Yeah, you woke up to it being invented, in you mind. Then you build it and go back in time, but since this is the first time that time travel has been used, or let alone hypothesized, it has a few problems. Like every movie/tv show/book I have read, time travel never works well for those involved.

So you arrive way later than you imagined you did, like 38 million years earlier, and your machine doesn't work for some reason. Stupid Physics! Curse you! Then you're stuck in the time of dinosaurs, and one inevitably comes up to you and starts growling. Well guess what? You can't communicate with the terrible thunder lizard, and you run screaming untimely into the mouth of another dinosaur. Your time travel days are over as is the human race's.

Now things would have gone a lot smoother if you had known the above phrase right? If you had just said it instead of running, you would be king/queen of the 38 million years ago. You would have had an awesome dinosaur posse that you command with love. Plus with your intricate knowledge of the future (assuming you studied history in school), you would teach them the ways of technology and investment, leading them to invest in IBM and Microsoft eras before anyone else. Making dinosaurs the majority stock-holders for said companies. Dinosaurs never died out and still rule the world... O... M... G... what have I done?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Holy crap...

2008-12-22T20:20:00.000-08:00

I just played two games of Halo 3 today, and boy did I suck. Oh man, I haven't played in almost a month, the rust is still in my fingers. Ugh, get it off.

Lold to the bank

2008-12-15T15:03:00.000-08:00

Seriously, I've watched the Megaman 3 opening theme with lyrics video so many times I have memorized it, then I see this interview with the bosses, ROFL! It's like listening to old comedians from the 30's and 40's! Oh man, you gotta watch.

And here it comes...

2008-12-15T08:03:00.000-08:00

Yeah, I mean Christmas. It's coming. Guess what I just remembered, I didn't renew my Xbox Live account yet, I think it expired yesterday. Oh well, without an Xbox it doesn't seem like a big deal.

The best thing about this time of year is the giving, mainly to others, but to someone else, I am the other. Hooray for all that people give me. And I could stand to give to others too. In fact this Satday, I am headed down to The Road Home shelter in SLC to donate blankets and towels that they desperately need. Then hit up some choir performances at Temple Square. Should be a good night.

We had a nice dinner for my Dad's birthday on last Satday. I think I played the drums on Rockband a little to hard because I was hurting yesterday. Weird how a game makes you hurt. I need to play a new game, like bad. I played the Resident Evil 5 demo last week and loved it. Man I wish I could get paid to write reviews of games, dreamjob! Or start my own game store, It's something I know, as I have worked in one, and it's something I like and can get excited about. How would I start that? Anyone have any ideas? Huh?

Wow no posts in over a month...

2008-12-09T20:05:00.000-08:00

Yeah I'm bored. Why? Cause it's Christmas and I'm still in school.
'Well Matt, why not just do something in your spare time?'
Because there is nothing to do jerk.
'Wait Matt, you normally talk about games, so why don't you play some?'
Because my 360 has been in limbo for almost 3 months okay.
'What? Why?'
I had to sell it, thanks for bringing that up.
'Well you have other systems too, don't you?'
Yeah but none of them have the game I want to play. I miss Halo 3.
'I'm sorry, what can I do?'
Well Christmas is coming up...
'Um, what are you getting at?'
...and I don't have a 360...
'So...'
...or any of the accessories I once had...
'Oh I get it now.'
I miss all that worldly stuff so much it starting to hurt.

You know I had like 800 dollars worth of stuff, I think. Let's see, I had the Pro Console, a 120 GB HDD, an extra wireless controller, two battery packs, play and charge, the charge tower, wireless and wired headset, the messenger pad, the wireless adapter on the back. Not to mention the games, Halo 3; legendary edition, Gears of War, Shadowrun, Call of Duty 4, Halo CE, Halo 2, and Ninja Gaiden. I spent so much money on that stuff, I can't believe I miss it. I've never been so bored in my life as I have been without it.

Christmas miracle headed my way? Huh? Maybe? No, I'm totally dreaming here... dreaming in the morning... dreaming all through the day... and the night... and in my dreams... dreams... dreams... ADIDAXB360.

CANDY CORN VAMPIRE!!!

2008-10-23T14:17:00.000-07:00

Guess what, guess what, guess what? I am eating a caramel apple sucker! I once gave my sister some and in return she was going to give me an entire bag or them, well I'm still waiting for that bag of candy, and like the China, I never forget. So um, what were we doing? Oh yeah, CANDY CORN VAMPIRE!!!

Travis Barker...

2008-10-13T16:44:00.000-07:00

That man is amazing. He's been in the hospital since his leer jet crashed in September. He suffered severe burns, so did his friend DJ AM, and 4 people died in the accident. He recently said how grateful he is for all the hospital staff and the doctor's despite rumors he was maltreated. He is truly a tough guy, he has had like 8 surgeries already, and is slated it for more, but while I am concerned over the accident, I do hope this doesn't stop him from playing. He is a great drummer, and his version of that crappy "Soulja Boy" song is the only one I can listen to. I loved blink once he came on board, and when he left the aquabats, so did I. Get better Travis! Hopefully someone gives you a Cadillac for all this trouble, you and your dad's rep proceeds you.

Here is a treat to leave with. The best rap songs ever, thanks to Travis.

Halo 3: Recon

2008-10-10T15:03:00.000-07:00

I'm as surprised as anyone about this, well not really everyone kind of had their rumblings for some time about a ODST game in the works. The thing I am surprised about however, is the fact that people are saying that ODST is a chick.

If you don't know what I am talking about with this Halo 3: Recon dealio, then head to bungie.net and check out the new trailer for this new campaign/extension of. The game takes place in the gap on earth between the Prophet of Regret jumping to slipspace in New Mombasa, and the Master Chief's fiery return to earth to start Halo 3. You play as one of the most popular characters in the Halo Canon, an ODST (Orbital Drop Shock Trooper). Or more commonly known as Helljumpers.

It looks like it's more of a stealthy game, as you are not an invincible super soldier, and will be released on a disc and not available as DLC. It will be released in fall of next year and will have multiplayer, forge, and theater mode. Plus the Mythic and yet to be named map packs will be made available before the release too.

This is pretty cool, but the thing that gets me is people think the ODST is a chick? They say it's the reason for this...

Also there is this, Halo 3: Recon in leet speak translates to 'HER' (H3R). Well I don't know about that, it would be a twist and knowing, and at the same time not knowing Bungie, it could be true. Judge for yourself, but Keep It Clean.

The Day Before Conference...

2008-10-03T08:57:00.000-07:00

My birthday is never a good time of year. No, my birthday is cool, but the TIME of year it's in sucks monkey turds. It's always on or right before General Conference, so A, I'm always stuck doing Conferencey stuff, B, My friends all are at mission reunions so no doing stuff with them, and C, it's the same weekend as the St. George Marathon and my family loves going to that, so no family stuff either.

Happy Birthday to me.

Demolition derbies are fun.

2008-09-30T17:13:00.000-07:00

It seems evertime I blog, the Simpsons is on. Tells you how my life goes huh? I have heartburn, ow, ow, owwww.

I don't know what is spewing from my fingertips to the screen but here goes, uh, um, fuh? I'm bored, I don't want to play games anymore, they hurt my eyes and my head. I haven't been very social lately either, not by choice either, it seems everytime I want to do something, nothing doin' with my friends, boooooooo.

I did see Eagle Eye though, it sucked. At first I was very intrigued, but after a half an hour of pretty cool action, they decided to reveal the big twist. Then they leave you with an hour and a half of trying to resolve everything. It was poorly executed to say the least. Why couldn't they reveal the big twist later and keep the awesome action up til the end. And then at the end everything wraps up in a nice package and then they seal it with happy tape and a corny bow. Thank you writers of the Transformers movie (which I hate now) for exec. producing this pile.

If I have learned anything from video games, it is that artificial intelligences always go rampant and then someone needs to save the day. I'll do it this afternoon.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2008

2008-09-28T17:59:00.000-07:00

After almost an entire week of playing Halo 3, I'm taking a break. I realized last time I posted, all I talked about was Halo and Bungie, so I won't talk about it this time.

So last week was Halo 3's anniversary, and two days before that was the anticipated TU2 (Title Update 2). Needless to say I think that the update was very well accepted, that's why I spent all week on Halo. It was fun and cool.

Also my brother comes home in a month. Awesome, Jake is super cool and will be super awesome when he comes home. Did that last sentence make sense? I think I meant that IT will be super awesome. We just have to wait a month, good job Jake. Missionaries are tough. Did you know he weathered a hurricane in Houston? Did you? HUH?!? HUH!!!!!?

Well some stuff happened last week, so the only advice I can give is, get a cat. They are good for companionship, plus are an excellent food source. Okay that's not so true, they are horrible companions. Now dogs, there is an animal that does things. With that I take my leave, or stop typing, whatever.

Happy Bungie Day

2008-07-07T09:37:00.000-07:00

I <3 Bungie these days, why? Because of the way they make games with a great story and games with less than three. Today is Bungie Day, It is the day Bungie Studios designates as it's own, for a couple reasons. One is because they like the number 7, two is because last year on 7/7/07 they became and independent game developer, thus fulfilling step six of their seven step plan for world domination. It was quite awesome to hear that last year, because true Bungie fans knew that it meant less limitations on the way Bungie could develop games.

Now in all truthfulness, I don't know what is going to happen today, but I do know that Bungie Day is fast becoming my favorite holiday. We, the Bungie faithful and community, are granted a few great presents on Bungie Day, and today is no different. Today we get a FREE map! A remake of Halo: CE's Chill Out called Cold Storage, plus we get a new theme for our Xbox 360's along with some cool gamerpics.

Granted the day just started, but I am sure that we will get some awesome news about something today. Who knows, maybe some people might even get Recon Armor today. As for me I leave this for you all, Thanks Bungie <3.

Plop is what sound you make

2008-06-25T16:59:00.001-07:00

I don't know what that means but it makes me happy. So I play lots of games and some more than other, and with that I say, I hate everyone who plays games. So there take that all of us, it hurts doesn't it. Why create stuff that just enrages people when they do bad? It's not that I'm not good, it's just everyone better is a jerk about it. Why would you decided that when you get better at something that you need to rub it in like mace in your face? I mean whenever I do better than someone else, what is the first words to come out of my mouth? It's good game, or 'gg' which is the international sign for good game, or sometimes it means 'I give up' or just conceding to someone. But when you win and start swearing and being an ass, no one can respect that. Even major league gamers (yes there are major league gamers, and they make some serious money and are great at what they do) talk trash during the game but afterwards it's time for you to be a good sport. Recently, at the MLG tournament in San Diego, the worlds best halo players came in 7th place, and what did they do when they lost? They shook hands with the people who beat them. Even the team that beat them shook their hands too. Point is if you're an ass, please stay away from my games, and I'll stay away from you and your assy ways. You ass.

ow ow owwowow

Johnny Lee

2008-04-22T09:50:00.000-07:00

This man is my hero. For less than one hundred dollars he has setup some amazing tech using Nintendo's wii remote. I watch this and wonder why people keep saying games consoles are toys? They have sophisticated technology involved, at some points more sophisticated than your P.C. or MAC. A 40 dollar infrared camera (essentially) can throw the game world upside down, not only that but benefit schools who don't have the necessary funds to teach children like bigger schools. That white board is amazing, and Microsoft makes basically the same thing for thousands more. Johnny, I am simply amazed.

Z day approaches.

2008-04-14T10:04:00.000-07:00

What did I tell you! Huh? Z-day approaches, and scares the bigooglies out of me. What is Z-day you ask? Well feeble mind, it's zombie day. The day the zombies come to gnaw on our heads until grey matter oozes out. It's coming and no one can stop it, except you. So go to your local town hall, sit in on a town meeting, and demand a viable zombie plan for the survivors of Z-day. I know for a fact that my town doesn't have a zombie plan, but I do. I have an individual zombie plan, and no you can't has it. If you don't feel like saving anyone, then by all means come up with your own, individual zombie plan. But if you feel you need to save others, then contact your local governments for a plan. Then make sure they implement it, nothing is worse than spending 2 million dollars and then finding out on Z-day that they squandered your resources, then it all goes to pot. Find out how to individualize your plan here. Until then, so long losers.

My best and worst

2008-04-03T08:01:00.000-07:00

So Salt Lake's own City Weekly just put out their 'best of '08', so I thought I would let you know my best and worst of last year. Just bear with me I guess.

Number 5;
Good- Samsung, their products are amazing, everything they put out is user friendly and easy to use. Plus setup with their HD televisions are quite easy.

Bad- Samsung, Although they have great products that are easy to use, when they break, it's really hard to get them fixed even under warranty, my HDtv is only a year old, and I have had it fixed twice. My friends HDtv was supposed to be replaced, but was replaced by a refurbished model that had a big black bar that went down the middle of the screen.

Number 4;
Good- The WGA, you may not think that the strike last year was good, but it did alot to help television. Crappy shows came on to replace the good ones and everyone just stopped watching, which was good, it meant people talked about their real lives and not television.

Bad- Hollywood Execs, those ones who wouldn't give the money that the WGA deserved. What a bunch of douches. It's their fault the strike went on as long as it did, cause they thought that all those crap shows were doing great, newsflash, no they suck.

Number 3;
Good- Rehab, it always is a good idea to get help, and all those celebrities do it.

Bad- Rehab, it never sticks, I think the RE in rehab, means 'Retard', that's who doesn't stick to it.

Number 2;
Good- Microsoft, had a great year, lot's of exclusives, good titles announced, surprise blockbusters, and the future just looks better for them. Plus XBL is awesome, and continues to improve.

Bad- Sony, your console is good, inexpensive Blu-Ray player, and that's all you have going for you. You're awesome games are 360 ports, your original games are few and far between, no backward compatibility, your controller sucks for FPS's. Sorry, still not interested.

Number 1;
Good- Bungie, feaking rules. Their plans to rule the world are slowly coming to fruition. They ended the massive trilogy that is halo, announced a movie based on the series, separated themselves from microsoft in order to achieve their own gaming ends. And will constantly love their fans, forever.

Bad- Bungie, loves their community, but treats them like crap. We just want to know more, yet it's so tightly guarded, if they say anything they probably will have to kill you. Just tell us what you are working on, yell at microsoft to make new Halo 3 maps free from day 1!

Oh...

2008-04-01T08:18:00.000-07:00

and happy april fool's day, that last one was no joke though.

Sorry

2008-04-01T08:13:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was one bad day, starting with the bank and ending with my sis and mom. Today will be better for sure, I've a job interview at a screen printing place in clearfield. So that is awesome, plus I've been studying harder than before, cause I've got to catch up on school and such. The only sad thing is that I can't be playing so much Xbox, or watching too much television. So that's kind of a bummer. When I finally finish school, then maybe I'll get back into that, or not, we'll see. Still who wants to give up games like call of duty 4, especially when you are so awesome at it. I guess I'll have to for now. Stupid, just stupid.

Don't pay attention to the one after this,

2008-03-31T17:40:00.002-07:00

Seriously don't, it's not about anything. Blah.

Trust

2008-03-31T17:38:00.000-07:00

It's very important, and apparently hard for me to get. I have a problem with telling people the truth, mainly cause I don't want to seem weak. It's a bad thing to do, and I always seem to think I can get away with it. Man am I retarded.

Screw the IRS and my bank.

2008-03-31T11:10:00.000-07:00

Neither knows where the hell my tax refund went. Screw them, I've been on hold with one or the other for 3 hours today, and each keeps blaming the other one. Screw you guts. Just admit to a problem and let me get on with my life. Give me my money back, I want my money back you bitches. Why can't people admit they screwed up, and the IRS won't do a thing till they can confirm the money is sent back to them, and my bank has no record of receiving it, so they say. WTF! Fuck this government. Great job Bush, if you're an ass. ARRRGGGHH, I've been on hold now for half an hour with the IRS waiting for someone to pick up! This is like the time my Xbox 360 broke and I was on hold for half an hour just trying to get someone on the line, and then I got someone on the line, and they told me to do something, like take off my hard drive and it should work. So I did, and it still didn't work! So I called back and waited another fifteen minutes before someone actually said they could help, and were going to repair it, except that it took 4 weeks to get it back, when they said it would take 2 and then the only compensation I got for the extra wait was a free month of XB Live service! Screw you people. You can all bite my shiny metal ass.

Zombie plans for the future...

2008-03-28T16:22:00.000-07:00

Everyone needs a zombie plan, please tell me you have one? I have one, I'm not telling though, I mean what if you became a zombie and you knew my plan? You would come straight for me once the food started getting scarce. Uh-uh, I'm not breathing a word of it, just that it involves sharks, shotguns, xbox, and the Pacific Ocean. Try putting that together. Dare ya. Although I do like the plan about going into the Alaskan wilderness until the zombies freeze to death, for a second time I guess. I know that all GPer's have zombie plans, cause they have to just to join. I've personally heard them all. If you don't have a zombie plan, you know what you are? Stupid, just stupid.

I think that if the candidates for president were to somehow incorporate a zombie plan into their running platform, then maybe I would settle on a candidate. They have exactly "blank" months to get one. This is totally simple, do it.

BLargh, BlaARrgH, Rawr. I'm so sick from all the candy, (I ate two pieces, yeah, I know) and can barely stand from the sugar rush I'm having. I taught school today, sunday school, it was about sexual immorality. That would have been not so hard (ladies?) except that I teach 13 and 14 year olds. Owkswards.

For some raisin my taxe refund this year didn't get direct deposited into my bank account, so I have to deal with that tomorrow at the bank. Not fun for anyone, except for my bum and the sun. Bums, they are awesome, what a great life, they don't have to go to work if the don't want too. (close up on a bum's face who just overheard that, and cue tears.)

No ending for old men...

2008-03-20T18:34:00.000-07:00

Seriously? Are you serious? Srsly? No country for old men, are you serious? You had no ending, wtf. Don't movies have to have some sort of point? Or at least some plot. Just when you get involved in the movie, it's like they puked on the ending, then threw it away, and tried to read it from 3 miles away, with a magnifying glass. I bet those Coen brothers said, "I know let's make a movie that doesn't have an ending and ends all artsy, then it will get an oscar nod and we will laugh and laugh." Stupid, just stupid.

Well I bought COD4 recently and regret it not a lick, well I didn't really buy it so much as trade in existing games for it. My old game store is now turning into a gamestop type store. There is a reason why I didn't go to, or work for gamestop, and now my old store is changing everything about them to copy the number 1 game retailer in the US. Now I promise you, if I took the exact policies that game crazy was set up under back when it wasn't owned by movie gallery, I could make a very successful store, maybe name it GamePharmacy, or something like that, to keep with the GP thingz. In fact I want to start that up. Who wants to help? Anyone got some money to invest set me up the email. It's a big industry that game one, 40 bill. last year to show just how big.

go to digitalph33r.blogspot.com and watch all videos. Do it. Will be on COD4 tonight, send a message over XBL. gigglepie ftw.

Girbauds, remember those? Remember how everyone you know had to own a pair or you sucked? Do you even know how to say it? If I read that phonetically, I wouldn't think, oh that's not said the way it's spelled? Jir-bows, that's how you say it. Stupid, just stupid. Those pant'sslashshorts were ugly anyway. I didn't ever want a pair, and then all of a sudden, everyone is all, do you have girbauds? No. Cause I'm not a moron. Why do I need ugly pants that cost a fortune. Stupid. Why do people get caught in those fads, like Ugg boots, those suck too. And do you think that the eskimo's get any of the profit's there? Huh? Do ya? No, and the invented them, cept they call them mukluks and they are much nicer. You weird girls who where those ugly knee-high ones, stop right now, or I'll make you wear girbauds, then you will know just how stupid you lookslashwill look. Stupid, just stupid.

Oh and go see 'Horton Hears a Who', funniest movie I've seen in a long time. See Hollywood, and Will Farrell, you don't have to be rated R to be funny. Jerks. "Chessmate."

Sorry for the post of no calibur, but I had to post it.

What happened to end bosses?

2008-02-27T17:03:00.000-08:00

I remember the days when NES was called nintendo, and in those days games had bosses. Now I know what your thinking, but matt, they have bosses in video games, well shut up. I know that, but remember real bosses? Like in megaman, or ninja gaiden? Those were bosses, not like Saren in Mass Effect, and Atlas in Bioshock. They may be the ones at the end of the game, but are far from bosses. Bosses are Goro, Abobo, Red Falcon. There are games nowadays that have legitimate end bosses, but they are becoming few and far between. I'll give you a short list...

4. Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence-The best boss is your mom, or sort of your mom. Boss has a name to live up too, and does quite well. She is tough, has tricky attacks and takes a while to defeat and exhausts you as well. Not only is she hard to beat (if you play right) but she plays an intrigual part of the story. No spoilers here, I promise, but I will make here number 4 on the list for it.

3. Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess-Now most Zelda games end with a nice boss battle and dungeon battles to boot, but TP does this better than most of them. Ganondorf and his minions always make for great games, and Ganon/Ganondorf end up being your final battle. Now nintendo understands not to mess with a winning formula (sometimes), but no messing was done here.

2. Gears of War-Throw this game in, I know you have it, and go straight to the fight with RAAM on Insane, tell me that doesn't deserve to be on this list. It has multiple facets throughout the battle, stay in the light, watch his chaingun, watch for the kryll shield to leave, head for troika (depending on how you play). One of the best OMG moments in gaming cinema.

1. Halo 2-Now it's weird that a first person shooter can have a great boss battle, but the battle with brute leader Tarturus, is an unexpected pleasure. Most FPS have some sort of boss but never try to make it fun, usually it's duck and cover, then fire the biggest gun you have at him/her over and over, like in GoW, but this adds the extra OMG factor of his Fist of Rukt combined with his invulnerability. I absolutely love to fight him, especially on legendary, it's a great fight, especially when you start running out of ammo. It's a great story coupled with one amazing boss, that's why I made it number 1.

Please, developers, remember those games that made you want to make them? Remember how boss battles mad you feel? Even if it was impossible to beat, it made the game worth playing. Please believe me, I know what I'm talking about.

So long losers!!!

I need to know what happened to Futurama, now. I mean, the disappointment I felt the day it went off fox knew no bounds. Then it miraculously emerged back onto the scene, just like anything that has to do with the eighties, on cartoon network's adult swim. Then when the likes of family guy made it back into regular rotation on it's home network, I thought for sure the rama would return, as per I thought it funnier and smarter than the crude family guy. But to no avail. The only thing going on is four different, full-length movies that will be turned into an entire season on comedy central or some crappy network like that. Why is it everything I love disappears? Home movies, Futurama, my dog max, Steve Gutenberg? Futurama and Home Movies were two of the most well written, funny shows out there. And then like a newborn baby in the hospitals of china, is taken away from me and left in the wilderness to die. Oh please save my babies!!!! I don't understand how things can poof out of existence like that. I don't believe in magic, unless you count magic fingers. And I definately don't believe in network executives either. So how do they get a say in things disappearing act? It's like the pope, he's not real and yet he still controls so many people, same with the president, he's not real either. Voltron, come save us from our wicked ways! Well, peace in the middle east...
