Snake-Eyes Commando Elite

This is regarding Warhawk. I have recently joined a clan. We're a group of guys banded together to learn and KICK BUTT!

I love this game. We have a graphics designer and he created our clan logo.

Amazing.

Warhawk Rules!!!

The video below are tips for dodging missles while flying. Since I last posted I've joined a clan and advanced up to Airman Rank! This game is amazing.

Keypad for PS3

I need one. I'm accepting gifts and/or donations!

Current Obsession is...

Warhawk.

I can't say enough about this game. I've pushed all of my other games aside and really gotten into this combat game for the PS3. If you like air or ground combat this game is for you.

On top of the game play which is challenging, you work as a team and choice between play 4 different modes of play. Each game can be played with up to 32 players online! Below is the game breakdown.

1. Team Deathmatch - teams to take neutral bases
2. Deathmatch - 2 teams take down as many enemies as possible (Eucadian vs. Chernovan)
   
3. Capture the Flag - capture flag, return to base and touch the enemy flag with own flag
4. Zone Mode - Capture as many bases as possible.
   

I got the game from Gamestop for $19.99 and wondered if I would like a game plays online only. I could you play in teams and have team objectives without communicating. That was solved with my bluetooth headset. I paired it with the PS3 now, I can communicate with my team to solve our objectives. I just find that a lot of people don't have headsets, so I end up on losing teams sometimes because people don't work together.

The better your gameplay gets, the higher your ranking becomes. With a higher ranking the more likely you can get into clans. Clans are groups of players that get together and fight. I haven't joined one yet because I need a lot more practice.

This weekend will be a Laundry and Warhawk one. I need to work on my aircombat!

My Pilgrimage to DC

I lost my phone after my birthday dinner Saturday night. Not a great way to start my trip, but I made the best I could of the situation (I activated an old phone).

Monday, I chose to take pictures of the mall and The Kennedy Center. I got about two hours of sleep and headed down to the mall at 4am. We got into the mall and then waited from 7am to 11:30am when the ceremony was to begin.

It was worth it.

Worth it to see the older men and women, clearly affected by the freezing cold, out there because they had to witness history. Moved by the children that listened to every word that Obama had to say during his speech. Emotional because a black man is celebrated for his intellect, policy and leadership and he's the President of the United States.


I'll never forget that moment.

God Bless The Obama's and the United States of America.

Inauguration of Barak Obama

I leave Sunday for Washington, DC. I plan to make a peaceful pilgrimage to see the first African American sworn in as President of the United States. I say peaceful because I plan to let this be an easy trip with little to no amount of stress planned.

In 1995 I was in DC for the million man march and who would have thought fourteen years later I head back down to DC to witness Barack Hussein Obama become president.

Here's the plan:

Sunday
Arrive in the early evening see Mom
Eat hang out w/ friends

Monday
Take pictures of the Capital, Mall, Monument, etc.

*I haven't don't the tourist thing in Washington, DC in years and I'm excited to see the historic landmarks with adult eyes.

Tuesday
BIG DAY!!!

Wednesday
Back to NYC

Games, Games, Games

So, I have the Playstation 3 and I love it, but an addiction has developed...buying games. I want variety so if I get frustrated I can jump to another game, but I'm at that point now where I'm stuck, with Marvel Universe, The Darkness and Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga.

Oh well, maybe I can advance more this weekend!

BTW. If you gamed back when the Atari 2600 was out (like I did), then you need to start again. Head to the Gamestop store and play!

Birthday Week

That's right, it's been a great week.  For one, I'm alive and two I have a roof over my head and I pay my own bills.  Winning the lottery would be great, but maybe this year will be my year.

A few days ago I asked someone what their favorite movies were.  I mentioned:

E.T

The Color Purple

Star Wars (Episodes IV, V, VI)

The Matrix Trilogy

He proceeded to say, "You like those 80's movies."  His favorite movie, "The Departed and The Dark Knight".

I should have prefaced by saying this guy was born in 1988. (I was in high school!!!)  I was more floored that he said that comment about 80's movies.  

Another sign that I'm getting older.
