So in the last three days I beat Gow on insane, which surprised me. Usually if there are four difficulty settings on a game I play the third and have never beaten a game on "ultra" hard. I unlocked 150pts; I'm so close to 10k I can almost taste it.

I also have started watching Doctor Who when ever it's on; I love the whacky characters and the overall cheesiness of the show.

If any buddy want to play Gears of War co-op on insane message me

So recently I've been bored out of my mind with my xbox and have been playing mindless games of Cod4 multiplayer. So I opened up a game I thought I'd never play again and that would be a Gears of War. I never thought I'd open it again because of my pure hatred for GOW multiplayer yet loved the single player. I'm playing through the game on hardened with a friend over XBL and am having a great time doing so, now I'm actually hyped fro Gow 2 which I thought id be uninterested in.

Now moving on to the reason why I can't stand the adversarial modes is because I'm simply no good. I'm going to get flamed for saying this but I suck at the game so I really can't enjoy it, every match I join there has to be "god" like players who kill me before I know what hit me. I also never understood how you can enjoy multiplayer were the teams are 4vs4. There are just not enough people to kill and most matches end up being hide and seek games. Thankfully in Gow 2 the teams have been changed to 5vs5 but that's still not enough people.

Now that my rant is over I've decided to get back into writing reviews and editorials so less blogs about random sh^t and more in-depth blogs.

Battle Field: Bad Company Preview

The Battle Field Bad Company demo does a few things right , first off it throws you right into the action with close quarters fire fights and huge explosions but it also throws clunky controls and lagy multiplayer at you.

Single Player

The single player starts off you're squad and you are assigned to liberate a town full of enemies ( Russians) so that way an army convoy can move safely to their destination. You are then thrown into one hell of a fire fight with enemies coming out of no were and literally everything in sight blowing up or being destroyed. There is a down side to all of this destruction and mayhem though, cover is very scarce and without being able to go prone makes death a constant.

The control setup has to be one of the major turn offs from the demo and even purchasing the game. There is no way in hell any one will ever get used to using y as a knife button. The knife comes out and slashes but then it stays out and you have to manually switch back to your gun instead of the knife slashing and automatically switch back to your gun. You're weapon selection is selected by using the bumper buttons witch is frustrating when you want to switch to a weapon and press the bumper one to many times.

The enemy AI is fairly decent but they some times just stand there and take your shots. EA tries to correct the lazy AI by giving them god like armor, letting them take 10 to 15 shots to kill. The weapons you pick up are fun to shoot and have that extra stopping power gamers have come to know and love. But the problem is there isn't enough ammo to supply these great guns making you usually having to fall back to the knife sense there is no pistol.

Multiplayer

The multiplayer is fun for about 15 minutes…..then the lag starts to kick in running the experience. Only one game map is called oasis and it's your typical large dessert with two villages at either end of the map. In the game mode you have to protect or try to destroy your enemies Crate full of gold with explosive charges. The game mode its self is not bad but it doesn't feel right on such an open map. When spawning you have a selection of five ****s sniper, support etc with un-lockable extra weapons and guns once you rank up witch will care over to the retail versions of Bad Company if you buy it. The lag is the real turn off because it's hard to shoot anything with a assault rifle and impossible to shoot anything with a sniper rifle.

I enjoyed most of the single player demo mostly just destroying the environment with explosives and I enjoyed little of lag free online but I dint get enough out of the demo to make this game a definite purchase.

Verdict: RENT

Predicted Score: 7.5 to 8.5

in the coming week i have alot of studyting to do for finals so i wont be on GS much. I also have grown bored of my xbox and instead have been using it as a dvd player to watch Greys Anatomie (speeling error) and tell you the truth its not all that bad. I might buy a XBLA game to hold me over till Fallout 3 but besides that im bored of my box and even lent GTA 4 to a friend (which i beat by the way!). With my reccent break from gaming i will also take a short break from Gs i'll maybe go onlkine once a week instead of every other day. I'M not leaving for good and will be back.

-jason Keep on gaming
