A return to tradition

As some of you may have noticed, I have a valid excuse to wish everyone a happy yesterday again, and so I shall do so later on in this post. I'm not sure why, but god I love doing it.
I probably should have warned you all about Myke's near fetishistic love of both the enter key and the new post button. Regardless, it is good to have him here on the blog.

We I joke a lot to the contrary, but I wanted to clarify that Tetris does actually get work done, and him not wanting to post here isn't a good reason to deny him the credit he is owed. He has been diligently working away in his little cave manufacturing the noises and sounds that mean that you guys don't have to listen to me shouting "bang" loudly into a microphone in place of a gunshot noise.

Here is some good news for people that like things that are awesome. I know that at least 80% (4) of the people working on Zombietopia sunk major amounts of time into AVP2 multiplayer, if anyone on the team for this game have any iota of sense they will bring back that old multiplayer legend, leaving the core game intact and building upon it with gusto.
If, for example, they even consider giving the marine team a feasible chance of ever winning a round I know many people who would want their blood. That games' multiplayer wasn't about winning or losing, and nobody really cared, in fact it was better for it. It was a given that either the Predators or Aliens would win, it was just the Marines' job to try to take an enemy or two down with him. For every five or so times he died. Getting a two to five Kill/death ratio as a marine in that game was once an entry requirement for the mysterious group of gamers who refer to themselves as the "1337", although this requirement has since been dropped, because it meant that only about four people qualified and they were getting a little lonely.

Oh, and happy yesterday.

She's not your typical girlfriend

Happy Valentine's

To all and to all a good night.

Much well wishes to Iced Inferno and his girlfriend, and Balai with his secret girlfriend. :D
Tetris229, don't drink too much today.

Now as we all know, Valentine's day is a moneymaking scheme invented by holiday card distributors to get more money. Or is it the lovey-dovey day for couples? It's your choice.

If it is the first one and you're in a relationship, fellas: good luck with your girl today, you're going to need it. If, however you are single and beleive this to be the case: here are 10 things to do on Valentine's day.

1. Find another single friend and blitz Left 4 Dead for several hours.
2. Complete DOOM on Nightmare difficulty.
3. Order in a pizza (or several), get some friends over and watch all of the Lord of the Rings films, Batman Begins and Dark Knight, and then some over-explosive, over-done action flicks.
4. Cake. Today, it is not a lie; endulge yourself. (Hot cross buns will suffice.)
5. Go out and buy yourself the latest video game, you deserve it because you are so awesome.
6. Go out on a motorised scooter! If you don't have one, get one. Or make your own!
7. Masturbate.
8. Watch every episode of Scrubs released so far.
9. Design a weapon of mass destruction.
10. Build a fort. Doesn't matter what kind of fort, although the best kind is made with pillows, duvets and boxes. Lots of boxes.
Hope this has helped all you single lads out there this Valentine's day, have a good one!

It's free from Valve, with love...

So while perusing the nets, as some do, I came across an interesting article that could have Iced quite excited. This article contains only some news that shines light on the Left 4 Dead update/DLC. PC gamers will sit there and think;
"Yes, I'm waiting Patiently for my FREE DLC."
However it would seem the time is nigh as according to this source it's quite possible that XBox owners will also receive the maps and game modes for free, "good for them" I say because, there really isn't any good reason why they shouldn't at least get this free, Right?

Yay the end of the world is coming!

It's not really, I may save that post for when the Large Hadron Collider is back up and running.
Also, apologies for the three posts in a row, I'm bored.

BUT, I have done a little messing around with some old art stuff I found and whoopee we have some art for Zombietopia. Not necessarily concept art per se, but it is art nonetheless.

HIT IT, STEVE!













I will now repent for my sins (the rainbow lettering and the 3 posts)
May the Walrus be forgiving.

Newbie; I re-heally don't have time for this!

Mario sucks balls and Sonic is now very much like Mobius' equivilent of Kate Moss... without, of course, the boobies and the modelling career... Mostly in a way that both of their careers have declined so much as nobody really cares anymore.

Ok, video game reference over, I may now rant on whatsoever I like.


TODAYS RANT OF INTEREST: MY BAD INTERNETS!

It keeps crashing.




What? It's my first rant, it's allowed to be sub-par.

I promise to yield better crops next season.
