  It's Been a Long Time...

  Over the last year or so I haven't really been active on GS. I log in everyday and check the news and what-not, but I have mostly stopped roaming the forums and such. Just letting you all know that that's going to change. I checked out the forums yesterday and realized how much I have been missing. So you will probably be seeing me around more often now. =]

  Got COD: WaW Beta!

  Just got the email and downloaded it.

  First thoughts:

  "Welcome to COD 4: MW v.2.0"
  This game is like 90% similar to COD4, but hey, if it aint broke, don't fix it, right?

  Like I said, very similar to COD4 with different sides, weapons, nades, and maps.

  The tanks are okay and it's good the reload time of the cannon is longer than the other CODs. I think the perks for the tanks are pretty original too. But, there isn't much room to manuever them on the map. You go like 10 feet and it's like "Okay, turn around". Like move some support beams out of the way or something.

  I can't really snipe because it's still pretty laggy. What's with the red dot scope? I guess Treyarch wanted to attract some noobs to play like in COD4. It's good that it takes longer to get a kill now, or is it the lag. I hope no more getting one shot killed like on COD4 everywhere you walk.

  Anyway, I'm looking forward to the release. I'll definately buying it. I hope the campaign is just as good as in COD4.

  EDIT: A couple things to add. The dogs need to stop triple teaming up against me and they need to stop killing me with one bite. Also, the airstrikes last WAY too long and cover too much of the map at one time.

  My New Laptop

  I finally got a new laptop for my 15th birthday. I'm using it right now. It's no expensive gaming laptop. Just a basic computing home office one. It's the HP Compaq C700T. So far I love it. Vista is as I hoped, pretty nice despite the harsh talk. Good thing SP1 was preinstalled. I'm glad I went for the 2GB of RAM, I knew I would need it with Premium. It took some time getting all the bloatware completely out of it. Almost two days! There was 120 applications preinstalled before I even touched it. Here's the somewhat decent specs:

  Operating system Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (32-bit)

  Processor Pentium(R) Dual-Core Mobile Processor T2370 (1.73 GHz)

  Display 15.4" diagonal WXGA High-Definition HP BrightView Widescreen Display (1280 x 800)

  Memory 2GB DDR2 System Memory (Dual Channeled) - Two gigs for that Vista

  Graphics Card Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator X3100

  Networking Built in 802.11b/g WLAN

  Hard Drive 80GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive - Yep, that's an 80 you see there. I picked the smallest one becuase I don't really need an enormous amount.

  Primary CD/DVD Drive SuperMulti 8X DVD+/-R/RW with Double Layer Support

  Primary Battery 6 Cell Lithium Ion Battery
