conquer online

That was a groovy game, which for most of january kept me interested in internet. it was the oldschool diablo view. can zoom in and out but not revolve around. It was balanced real weird, like monsters in the next screen over kill you in one go, but the ones on the current map give you squat amount of exp. The best plan of action is to go in a party thats not going to slay you for shits and giggles.
Yea, thats the awesome thing about the game, its pretty much PvP (player vs player) throughout the entire game. But there's some really bitchy people who will just kill everyone in sight until they get put in jail. You collect points for killing people, and once it reachs a certain point i think you get imprisioned. If you want to really get someone killed whos way to strong for you you can just put a bounty out in town, and people will go out and kill in the name of money.
Now the bad bit about the game is the grammer and the quest set up. Its as if some asian spent a week to learn english then decided to write a long complicated story line..... and failed.
and for some reason you can jump the length of the screen in a single bound, its also the quickest way to get around while simultantiously not getting killed. it makes everything look rather silly. walkings for loosers in this game.

Other than that its an ok game. I was a tiaost, their like the healers, I could usually make a pretty premo party, but there would always be the one jack ass who would be like, "Heal plz" izak:"Look, I just ran outa mana, give me some pots and i could heal you."
"heal plz!"
izak: "Obviously you didnt understand me I said.."
"HEAL PLZ!"
Izak: "NO, SCREW YOU!"

Or the people that would constantly ask to be healed straight after you healed them to maximum, they get hit by one pussy bird thing that takes off like 4hp and they seem to get worried they might die or something.

Its fun, hooking up with a friend, go train, and if some turd muscles in on your kills, just zap him for all your worth and watch him run away. That was hilarious. heh heh, still remembered the way he scampered for his life.

chain emails.

yes, we all know what chain emails are. Unless you dont have any friends between the ages of about 5 to about 20 i would be surprised if you havent ever recieved a chain email. I have come to the conclusion that chain emails are things that should be torn apart and humiliated for what they really are. If I recieve a chain email I Change it so it looks completely rediculious and then send it back to every person that ever sent it. Boycot chain emails!
Oh yes, new theory. Theres a demon right, and he acts as the god of chain emails. Hes the one that rains curses down upon you if you forget to send it to at least 3 people in the next 5 minutes.

EXAMPLE:

>This really works, i swear!!
>>THE BOYFRIEND
>>AND GIRLFRIEND TEST (Dun Dun Duuuuun)>~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
>>>>This is no joke. It works (from experience, because I always send on chain emails, and I have already aquired 13 dream girlfriends.).
>>DO NOT just delete this. DO WHAT IT SAYS!!!! FOR YOUR OWN LOVE LIFE'S SAKE!!! LISTEN TO ME! EXPLANATION MARK! AAAAH! This is imperative to all mankind I say!>>Read this now or forever hold your peace.(Well, technically this sentence is used intirely out of context, Since Were going to ask you to send this message at the end of it all. So in fact, Read this now and hold your peace till the very end of the message would probably be more appropriate.)
>>This is not just your ordinary chain letter, Its a super chain email which totally isnt cliche. Every person you send it to, brings you more good luck. Wow!! Did you see it coming! Thats soooo different from our usual chain emails.
>If you send it to no one, it will cause someone you like to Like you a bit more, because they WONT be getting irritated by any silly chain emails.
>>If you send it to 1 person, your next relationship will have lots of fun times, Like falling in mud together.
>>If you send it to 2 people, you will get a secret admirer. And not the creepy, looking in your window type either, more the, read all your mail type.
>>I f you send it to 3 people, you'll get a date for the next school dance. If your out of school youl be asked by someone half your age to go to their school dance. Itl be uber imbarracing.
>>If you send it to 4 people, you'll meet the person of your dreams. the one with scissors for hands. So I say dont send it to only four people.
>>If you send it to 5 people, the guy or girl you met of your dreams will ask for your phone number. "Hey im a chick with scissors for hands... can I have your number?"
>>>If you send it to 8>people, your next relationship will be an everlasting hole of agony and arguements. Yaaaaay.
>>>If you send it to 13 people, your boyfriend or girlfriend, will become totally connected to you against their will. Youl have a copper wire strung through your hips so your stuck together.
>>>If you send it to 15 people, the person you have been crushing on for a very long time, will ask you out, I say dont say yes. Their probably jerks anyway.
>>If you send it to 18 people, your date for the next dance will ask you out. Thats when it gets even more imbarrasing. You craddle snatcher.
>>If you send it to 20 people, you'll make out with your crush at a party.. Oh dear. What will her parents say.
>>If it can do that much sending it to 20 people, imagine what it will do if you send it to more. No! thats sick. Dont think about it.
>>The consequences (Oh yes, sorry, this isnt one of those nice little chain emails that lets you get away with it):
>>If you do not send this letter to anybody, your life will suck! If it already sucks, itl probably suck a little bit more. If your a vacuum life will stay exactly the same. You have 5 days to send this letter to at least 1 person, I suggest some real annoying person that no one likes. You can send this to as many people as you want to, more the merrier and all that.. I am warning you...do not just delete this letter. It is a new chain letter and we would like it to get sent around as quick as possible. I refused to send it to many people(ONLY 38 people) when I first made it in June of 1982, because I didn't believe it would work. I do things when I dont think their gonna work. I have a low self esteem, I like to keep it that way. I sent it to 38 people(ONLY), then I got the best boyfriend that I could ever have..... I mean girlfriend.. I meant girlfriend.

>>>Romantic, Popular, or Brainy? Well We have the job for you! Spot all the grammer mistakes in this horrible chain email. (sponsored by bitchin dog food)>

Last chaos

You may have seen some of the google ads around advertising last chaos. I tried it in about January I think it was. Its ok, but its far to structured (if that’s the right way to describe it?) to be able to do anything fun in. Character creation sucks. Theres only like 5 different characters. I think their releasing another couple but big whoop. You can barely customize them at all. Change the hair a bit and that’s it. You can’t even change the gender of the character type, its bogus.
You spend hours just hacking plants up. Getting the traditional armour etc. It was pretty cool finding a dragon egg and hatching it though. You can make them do little tricks etc. So while the graphics are pretty cool you feel really restricted.
Its gay. Stay away. Lawl.

The PMS incident

Msn is the place of shy people acting dirty. where you could act like anyone you wanted and probably get away every time looking like a complete idiot. Something could happen to you and you wouldnt know if it was serious or a big joke.
For example(true story): Im doing my thing on msn, messing about. Some random chick is like, omg, thats a hot pic! blah blah blah. I wanna lay you right now, etc. and all this nuts stuff. and shes like, im having my period. bwahahahaha.
I was like, aight. fun, hows that working out for you?
And she kept on and on, until I eventually blocked her, then consequently deleted.
example two:
"Hi im phil, I like dick" logged in
"izak"/ so your gay??
"Hi im phil, I like dick"/ yup. lol, it makes a good conversation starter.
"izak"/huh, true.....
"Hi im phil, I like dick" is now *blocked*
*deleted*

Guitar hero 2

Oh my gosh. If you havent played Guitar hero 2 yet your missing out on so much. A have noticed a hole bunch of these sorts of games are coming out, its as if their trying to get away from the whole controller thing. ok, so its not a new trend, but its deffinetly rearing its head again. Back in the day it was duck hunt and later time crisis. Then they made stearing wheels etc for grand turismo and all those other car games. jeez, stearing wheels sucked ass.
More lately is singstar, the game that girls fell in love with and guys reluctantly got into because they loved the girls.
Then there was guitar hero. I never heard much about the original. Guess it was going on in places I dont generally look. (much like, but not limited to, my anas.)
and let me say, its awesome. The whole wammy bar, the tilt sensor inside the guitar make it just that little bit cooler. Especially when you cant figure out how to make star power work so you just jump around till something happens. Im a bit of a show to watch. moving around etc, I know it makes me play worse but at least it makes it more enjoyable.
using the controller is allright, I havent dared doing it on hard yet, cause 'A' is the last key, all the rest are located on the triggers etc on the front.
all of us who have played it have also probably dreamed about it being more than just guitar hero, more like "Band Hero" perhaps? Drum hero thrown in? maybe something like singstar mixed in? well if you had you might be interested in this news clip from red octane. http://www.next-gen.biz/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3233&Itemid=2

Does this mean that instead of the big day out we'll be holding big nights in? bands to ashamed to make their own songs or show their faces will start to become popular? Probably not. ooh, You know what would be cool! If you played online there was also a crowd mode, where you could listen to other people play, while knocking other crowd members down, doing special combos to crowd surf, or even if the band really sucks, boo and throw bottles! You could get bonus points for taking out lead! The future looks bright my friends.

Atari anthology

Ok, how many people used to have an atari? Werent they kick ass? It was a little before my time, but I still have my brothers one. its one of the early early ones. The computer is part of the keyboard, the screen only works in different shades of green and black. And you get uber awesome kick ass joysticks to go along with it. Games like joust, conan, that messed up one with that ball and the holes... original mario brothers, ghost busters! Oh my god, ghost busters had a thing at the begining where you could kariokie along to the theme song. that was a revolution in gaming right there.
So anyway, Ben, my bro, decided to buy the atari anthology for xbox, so we could relive the glory days of huge floppy disks and external floppy disk drives.
Man.. The ones on the atari were way cooler than whats on this shitty CD. THAT, was my first impression, but when you hunt around the cd gets real fun. I mainly hang out in the arcade area, getting insanely high scores on the different versions of meteors. And theres heaps of two player games, making it pretty fun to do with friends. But honestly, if you go into playing this, go in with a good sense of humour, I almost laughed myself shitless at night driver. People would buy that game???
if your real sneaky, inside bonus features youl find a couple of games that were never finished or released. Also A bunch of videos of the founder of atari warbles on for a bit. Its real interesting, I guess its cause were fan boys.
Oh yea, hang man is pretty funny. especially two player, _ENIS, hmmm, this could be difficult.
After playing it for the first couple of times I felt washed out and a bit pissed off, but once you find a game you like you get real into it. Pump on your own sounds to drown out the annoying beeps and then your set.

Fun Fun. Damn, this sounded like a big plug for atari didnt it? Oh well. Off to clock driv3r again. =P

Doom 3 and bash

Ok, I know this game is pretty old now. But doom 3 has and always will be the one Fps that ill be totally infatuated with. I clocked it on Xbox, twas cool. It was even fun doing it mulitplayer on xbox. They severely cut down the levels for multiplayer, got it done in like an hour I think. Wasnt nearly as scary though. It was all "MY DEMON MY DEMON YOU KILLED MY FUCKIN DEMON!"
But anyway, I got it for computer now, and wow, its a lot different, lot more interesting to. Theres heaps of different places etc. and its so awesome at night playing with the head phones on. They have really good bass so its always really awesome sounding when a demon pops up.

Also, if you havent been there, get the hell over there now, www.bash.org, freakin hilarious stuff. Not so G rated at times, and a lot of the jokes only nerds would get, but I laugh and im proud.

reptile->The first time hypr opened a box of Cheerios and looked inside he yelled, "OH WOW! DONUT SEEDS!"
hypr->wtf are donut seeds

MUDS

I have recently got into hunting around for good muds (multi user dungeon, dimension, etc), and I love the idea of them. But so many of them aren't what their all cracked up to be, their unweildy and often frustrating for someone like myself. I like role playing, I dabble, im not hardcore.
most of them run in one of those java clients or.. I dont know what their called, clients of some description anyway, where you have to type in the port number etc. Those ones piss me off. Hollow is ok, but I think I screwed up my bard. Money is hard to get and I havent been training my magic, how was I supposed to know you needed magic to play songs of pain (How emo does that sound).
And to top it off, after your stats reach a certain level you cant kill weak things for experience, and all the other monsters around are kick ass compared to me. I guess ill just have to save up gold and not worry bought exp till I have a fair amount of equipment.

If anyone knows any good MUDs or RPGs please tell me. Im dying for something interesting(literaly).

first post - the manifesto

Aight, so before you decide you want to even read this blog, let me tell ya'll what its about. This is the blog where ill be posting random junk on pretty much everything I DONT put on my other blog (which is dedicated to my comic series). So every now and again ill put a cool pic on here, or a short story. But this is mostly about my experiences as a semi serious gamer and internet user. So basically ill crawl back here when I want to bitch about annoying individuals lurking in mmorpg's, forums, chatrooms, whatever. Also to give you a heads up on the games I have been messing about with lately.

I own an Xbox, computer, have slight access to a 360, about to aquire a gamecube. PS fans may have trouble with me. Ill play whatever in the end. But no matter how much microsoft hurts me Ill always be their sex slave.

I have a soft spot for RPG's, and lately I have been hunting online for multi user text based games. Its wack I know.

Online games I have accounts on

Maple story - bera - izak
runescape - izak1399
neopets - izakflashman (I think, I have been banned so often I lost track.)
hollowgame - izak
conquer online - izak1399 (I think)
Kingdom of loathing - izak

There are more, but for now I cant remember them.
