Okay, so as I was preparing to watch the Giants get crushed by the Eagles yesterday on FOX, I see this trailer for a movie, Avatar, which I knew was written and directed by James Cameron, so I'm like "WTF...I'll watch it and see what its all about." HOLY SHIT!!!. It looks amazing. I cannot wait. The CGI looks breathtaking, and the story will always be there with James Cameron. Just watch this trailer. The battle at the end looks ridiculously epic...in every sense of the word. 
 
 
  
 
So whada think??? Pretty awesome right?
 
Well gaming wise I've just been playing Madden, i might play some ODST later this week, and then I'm just holding down the fort till nov. 20th when MW 2 comes out. I cannot wait for that game. I am so stoked. 
 
In other news Boderlands came out and it was generally well recieved scoring nothing but 4-5 star reviews and 8-9 scores. I read Game Infromer's review of DA: O and it sounds pretty amazing, so I cannot wait to play it. Also I need to see how AC 2 and L4D 2 turn out. Some good games are coming out. 
 
Happy Gaming

Okay... so I already preordered MW 2, and thats a done deal. Nothing you can say including shitty reviews will keep me away from that. 
 
Now there are three games I'm contemplating getting towards the end of Nov...(one month from now)  I can only afford 2. All three genres I like equally. I know that two of them aren't out yet, but based on predictions. What would you all say.
Assassin's Creed 2- I played the first one, liked it alot, and this looks a trillion times better.
Borderlands- Everything I've seen of it looks pretty damn awesome
Dragon Age: Origins- This game has slowly crept up my radar, and looks effing awesome.
 
What do you say???


Added by giyanks22 on Sept. 25, 2009

Okay...well 
where do I start???
 
Okay well Friday night (seven days ago) my parents and brother were out for dinner at my uncle's house. I stayed home because I had a nasty flu. They come home to find me passed out, and delirious. 
 
They proceed to take me to the hospital, where the doctors have my parents thinking I have incefilitus ( 50-50 whether  I live or die), or menangitis. The only way to determine if I have those diseases is by a spinal tap. (Basically sticking a  one foot needle into my back) Well...
 
Well...three doctors and one hospital later they finally got it...after fourteen tries, nine of which I was wide awake for. 
 
PS I don't have incefilitus. 
 
I go home the next day (SAT), sleep. 
PS I can barely walk from having 14 needles stuck in my back.  
 
The next day some friends come over, we watch football, i still feel like shit. 
 
Monday I feel like bigger shit, so I go back to the hospital. 
 
After waiting in the emergency room for ten hours they finally diagnose me with a severe case of sinusitis. (Sinus infection). 
 
I need IV antibiotics, and  will need to stay in the hospital for three to four days. 
 
Not until Wednesday did I begin to feel better. 
 
Finally yesterday (Thurs.) did they send me home, and I still feel like shit.
 
But my friends all pitched in and bought me Halo 3 ODST, so i've been playing that today, and beat it. 
 
The worst part is..I can't read anything up close. The Opthomologists think that's because my brain's still under all the stress from the sinus infection. So I can't catch up on school work. 
 
So yeah...I'm trying to get better, but I think I've just had the week from hell..
 
I also have been playing Madden 10, which I like. I'll review that and Halo 3 ODST later this week...
 
Anyway...I'll try and get better, and maybe put a vlog up for those of you who give a shit about my life and games.
 
Thanks 
Peace
Happy Gaming.

With Modern Warfare 2 being my most anticipated game of 2009, and many other people's what do you think the main plot of the game will entail? 
 
We all know that Soap MacTavish is your leader, and that you play as Roach, both of you are a part of a special task force. 
 
The main villain is Vladimir Makharov, an associate of Zakhaiev (the villain from MW 1), but Zakhaiev was the one who controlled Makarov.

IW has revealed that game takes place in Russia, Afghanistan, and Rio De Jenerio, but I have this gut feeling that something happens in the US.
 
The Modern Warfare 2 World Premiere trailer shows a hostage rescue sequence in snow covered Castle. 
 
   

 
 
My Prediction: You piss Makarov off, and he attacks the US capital building and takes a powerful US political leader hostage, and its your job to go rescue him in that Castle. By Piss off, I mean the way you piss off Zakhaiev in MW 1.  You probably end up foiling his plans for the takeover of Afghanistan, and he retaliates by attacking the US and taking a President, Vice President, Speaker of the House, Senator, or Congressperson hostage, or maybe someone is running for President, but is in Congress.
 
Now that's my prediction about what will happen. I doubt it will be true, but if it is, then we can expect one hell of a single player game.
 
 
What do you think???
