Nerdattude

So, I know this blog is centered around entertainment but the human nerd in me needs to speak.  My first question is when did Facebook become the almighty wizard of politics?  Why is it that some dumb article gets posted and then re posted and re posted and eaten up by these dumb fucking people who have no actual real opinion.  I hate that its acceptable to hate or love a political party because its popular.  Then when you call these people out they have nothing.  No actual reasoning for saying the shit they say, just because they can.   Facebook is trash, if yo get your news from Facebook go kill yourself, and enjoy your job at (insert fast food place here) .  I suppose at the core what im trying to say is open your eyes!  Stop being an idiot.  No matter what side you're on you're wrong.  Why do I say this?  Well, its become acceptable to chastise people for their beliefs.  You have no Idea how many dumb fucking people po...

  To start off I need to be honest, I have not finished AC3 yet and I didnt play a AC game after number 2.  With that said 3rd time is indeed a charm.  So far I am truly loving this game.  I love the setting, the combat, the characters, you name it I am enjoying it.  This game is huge!  there are so many things that can be done.  Would you like to hunt rabbits?  Dear?  Fuck it go ahead!  Do you hate the redcoats?  Put an hatchet into their heads one by one.  This is what I mean, total immersion and freedom.  The mission structures are similar to the rest of the series.  Go do this for this person than assassinate this person.  I suppose I should say a little about the story.  Well you are Connor.  A half native half colonial with a grudge.  You take it upon yourself to work with the resistance right around the time the revolutionary war is happening.  In fact some of the most fun is ...

Ok gamers are you ready to take on the role of master chief again! for the fourth time! by a different studio!????  Yeah, I know the thought of a different company doing halo doesn't make any form of sense right?  WRONG!  343 has taken the Halo franchise and put love and care into it, far more so than the last couple of outings made by Bungie.    First off the graphics.  There has been a significant bump in graphical quality, whether it be a rock canyon or space platform this game is beautiful.  The guns still look Halo-ey but there is noticeably more detail.  The indoor levels on the space dock can leave a little to be desired but the rest of the game is pretty to say the least.   Now on to story, remember when you read that its a Halo game?  Well, then you already know the story.  Big bad aliens have been awakened and only one man...er machine..er wait no hes definitely a man!  He speaks and shows a small amount of emo...

  Ah yes i can still here the angry slurred version of Stallone's "I am the law!" echoing through my hollow 80's movie filled head.  Wait..what's this?  A newcomer has emerged victorious?  Yes, its true the new Dredd is quite well done and incredibly enjoyable.  From the beginning you need to know that this isnt the same goofy overly Hollywood Dredd, this is gritty, violent, and surprisingly deep.  You meet Dredd as he dresses in his biker leather and as he puts his helmet on (you don't see his face).  Karl urban takes the reigns in this iteration of Dredd an while I dont normally like Karl Urban I must say he was pretty good.  The only one of my complaints is that he seems to be sucking a lemon the entire movie.  He always has a pouty face as if someone stole his favorite murder tool.  Urban plays Dredd as a human, unlike Stallone's godlike character.  Dredd while one mean son of a bitch, inst invincible nor does he showboat...

With a game like this people are bound to say its a Gears Of War clone.  To those people I say you are absolutely right!  Inversion is almost an ugly step child of better games that came before it (almost better)  Ill start with the basics.  You are a forgettable character in a fake city and well all the "emotion"  is undoubtedly fake.  You are a cop going home to give his little girl her birthday present before she gets slaughtered...er I meant goes to bed, well guess what, an odd race of people who I can only assume were stolen directly from rage, decide they'd like to fuck shit up.  That's where you come in... Now with Max Payne you were thrown from game play to cut scene and it worked.  Inversion tries the same method but does is quite horribly.  The action early on especially is broken up by poorly voice acted cut scenes.  Its really jarring to be in the process of shooting someone in the face just to be thrown into a cut...

For many gamers the ghost recon franchise is as important to them as say the Counterstrike or Battlefield games.  The Ghost games had great multi player to them and with the latest installment it brings it back to the forefront with more of a high octane movie feel than a video game feel.  Fear not however, Future Soldier is not simply a call of duty rip off, in fact I believe more care was put into this game than the latest Call Of Duty shovel ware.  As expected you play as a four team ghost squad sent on various mission tackling various targets and objectives.  Whether you're in Russia investigating a "deactivated base" or trying to rescue a CIA operative the game delivers a grand spectacle of death and bullets, without sacrificing what is true to the series, strategy.  Within your four team group you can designate targets and line up your shots together.  Doing this is incredibly satisfying, made better by a slow motion death shot when all four memb...

I would like to start by saying if this movie were actually a video game it could have been very decent, with that said well....yeah      Lets start at the very tipidy top of this shit fest.  Produced by  Oren Peli, he's the dude who directed and produced the paranormal activity movies.  This however was directed by Brad Parker, he's never directed a movie before...it shows. The issue is unlike those movies that have their niche this diaries does not.  It stands in a middle ground, not quite a handy cam movie and not quite a real movie.  To their credit they found a nice isolated area in Russia (I assume) to film thats however the only real good thing about this piece of garbage.  Well that's not true the first 45 minutes or so feature a pretty funny and rather well acted character named Uri ( Dimitri Diatchenko) this guy has more credit than anyone in this movie.  Check him out hes been in tons of video games.  Oh and Jess...

In late October of the year 2000, Linkin Park debuted with their first full-length CD.  Needless to say, it was a success.  Selling over 4.8 million copies in the first year Linkin Park skyrocketed to success.  They had an edgy brand of ALT-rock.  Among the crunchy guitars, dual vocals, and electronics Linkin Park was a band on a war path.  My question is what happened?  I'm not going to break down each CD track by track only because re-listening to most of it has the potential to make my ears bleed and make me seriously contemplate cutting my wrists.  Instead ill go over highlights of all cds as well as go over how shitty the band has become. The beginning- Hybrid Theory as a whole is a ferocious yet soft album.  Chester Bennington had the energy as well as the soul to sing the softer parts.  (Also, he sounded like he ate a jar of razors a day)  There really isn't a bad thing I want to say about Hybrid Theory, I loved that album....

Demon Hunter's sixth studio album comes out strong slows down towards end. For many fans of Demon Hunter liking this album will most like be determined on what style of demon hunter you enjoy.  Being a fan of the original album more that the others I'm only half entertained by this album.  The first four tracks in my opinion are the best.  Crucifix, god forsaken, My destiny, and wake are all driven by the metal anger that christian bands have.  Rather than speaking about sex, drugs, and Rock N' Roll Demon Hunter speaks on more serious subjects. Crucifix- is a sobering song about the greed, and ungodliness in the world.  A strong song however its a bit preacher (especially if you're not religious) God Forsaken-Same dark tone as crucifix except more personal, this song is more melodic.its more about inner struggle than general society shit. My Destiny- This song has a solid double bass beat throughout.  The main verses have a very screamo pun...

Ok so if you're an action fan then you've undoubtedly heard of Liam Neeson.  As of late hes been starring in one high octane action movie after another.  Taken's blu ray (one of my favorites) literally has a body count special feature.  With that said The Grey is an entirely different movie.  I'm going to try to give you an honest review without giving to much away.  The story begins with Neeson working on an Alaskan oil rig.  His whole job is to shoot wolves who get to close to the workers.  (are there seriously that many wolves)  Anyways hes a sad fellow who to put it nicely wants a quick exit from life.  He decides to take the next plane to the closest town to do whatever he wants to do when all of a sudden his plane crashes.  Now just saying his plane crashes is an understatement.  This is one of the most tense, scary, and realistic crash scenes I've ever seen on film.  It will never been shown as your in flight movie....

Oddly enough this review can be virtually summed up with two words.  Max Payne!  Formally a Remedy product Max Payne has had a nine year hiatus.  Rock Star has now taken the reigns and used their excellent development staff to create a wonderful if not simple title. Max Payne 3 drops you into a new more emotional Max.  By day he drinks himself to a fuzz and by night he eats painkillers to numb himself.  Still not over the events of the first game  he is now a full blown alcoholic.  This time He is in Brazil doing security gigs for the wealthy Bronco family.  Unfortunately for max its not as simple as booze babes and well booze.  I want to stress this Max is always getting his ass kicked.   As the game and story progress we switch back and forth from present to past explaining how max ended up in Brazil, why he no longer resides in New York, and how he met his new friend Passos.  The big thing about max p...
