The Reals and Shams in Bad Company: Xbox


The Real and Sham Things in a Realistic Game

If you have ever played any games on Xbox involving real life warfare like Battlefield Bad Company. The games is very addicting and it looks very cool, it is like you are really in the middle of a battlefield. I played it a couple times and seriously they are addicting, but even as realistic they are things sometimes you would notice the little details inside the game that doesn't seem very logical. For example, the first time I played the game I went on demolition mode and I had a rocket launcher, so I was like great this is going give the other team alot of problem. Having it was a great feeling like when a tank passed me, I thought to myself "they are seriously dead" so I hit them with a direct shot and boom, wait? Nothing happened, then I would think to myself was that my illusion or it was just a glitch. No it was none of them, it did seem unlogical at first but if you think again, it was to prevent player abuse. In real life the tank would have been a pile of debris, if that ever happened in a game the player who shot it would've been real happy but the victim would've pitied himself, so that is something that has to be made fake in order for a more enjoyable gaming experience.
Then another time, I was on demolition mode and I was in a plain field tailgating 2 tanks and all of a sudden sniper shots and rockets were fired at us, I ducked instantly and looked beside the tank to see that 2 guys with sniper rifles and 1 with rocket launcher was on a house attic, so I thought to myself " they have only a measurable amount of space and they are all crowded." I shot a rocket, thinking that all 3 would die in one shot but the result was only a double kill instead or triple, now I was not being greedy even when I had already 2 kills but was it a logical, yet again it won't be. But since it is a game, it has to prevent player abuse so the double kill was actually kind of worth it. Remember it a game it can not be too true or else things would get out of control. Playing a game is doing something or being something that you can't be but experiencing it in an entertaining way, you get chances in it but life you don't.

Dark Knight

Batman vs. Joker

Yet again it's another movie about them fighting, one is good and another is evil. This movie is truly insane, this time Joker tries to takes over Gotham City with all his plans. In the beginning countless number of Batmans try to go up against mobs but seriously failed all until the real one comes along. Then comes the Joker robbing a bank with a school bus and killing all of his partner to run off with the money. The rest of the movie show Joker's plan developing and how everyone interfering is helping him accomplish it. The movie is action packed and has immense chaos, but this movie makes Joker seem like a genius with all those set-ups. The movie has so many characteristics, it is funny, chaotic, psychotic and action packed. So many deadly weapons from machine guns to bazookas!!! Heath Ledger is definetly at his best, he just blown away the Batman. I give this movie a 5 out of 5 stars! Hahahaahahahh.

Army Vehicle- Made With Magnetix

This is a picture of an army
vehicle and a container carrying
dynamites and landmines. I made
this out of Magnetix, the vehicle
has a turret gun on the top and
the vehicle has both a detachable
and attachable hauler. The vehicle
also have barriers around the cockpit
for protection against heavy fire
and crashes.This is a picture of the
vehicle and the container
connected. The front of the vehicle
is V-shaped, increasing
the speed and making it
easier for it to go through water.
The vehicle is good for
transporting, even through
rough terrains, and with it's barriers,
defense would be great.
The gun provides even more defense
making the fear factor at a
high level as well.

Transformers 2

TRANSFORMERS 2

The old japanese cartoon that turned into the hit movie of 2007 when Michael Bay directed it. The special effects were made by CGI but the explosions were mostly real, just not as powerful. But enough about Transformers in 2007, I can't seem to wait for Transformers 2 to come out. I heard that it is actually airing in Philadelphia near the Ben Franklin Parkway. That's kinda awesome and it's just gonna be very exciting that it takes place in this very place where the Declaration of Independence was signed and also where the Liberty Bell takes place. But it's going to be a long time till the movie is going to be aired around the world. I have also heard that there will be more and transformers on both Autobots and Decepticons. This movie comes out on June 2009 which is still quite a long time to come but I'll be waiting for it. It'll be exciting!!

Hancock Trailer- Will Smith

YouTube - Hancock Trailer
Awesome movie that's about to come out and I think it's gonna be a hit, maybe better than that kids movie " Wall~E" and well its probably gonna be one of Will Smith's hit movies, such as " Independence Day or I Robot. Rate this video after watching the trailer and watch the funniest part of the trailer, when Hancock crushes a sailing boat with a whale! But no one knows how good the movie is until the opening day comes! Enjoy the trailer and movie as well!

Hitman a place for fugitives

Now we sell weapons and boots!

Wow this store must attract a lot of homicidal maniacs here and I'm surprised that those people are even shopping there. They probably sell guns in there, it's just in the purses and boots. LOL, it's just plain old funny that this is a actually a store name! This store sign is not mis translated and it is not Chinglish. This is from Engrish.com. Enjoy!

Please die somewhere else!

I guess the suicide rate has gone up!

I don't know if these guys mean it or not but my comment on this sign is that " These guys don't care if you die, just not in their property!" It seems like they think the place is going to transform into a graveyard or maybe the suicide rate has just went up. This is another weird sign that came from Engrish.com but it seems ridiculous that anyone would just die out of nowhere in front of that property! Real weird? ENJOY more of these weird signs comin up!

Visit Engrish.com To laugh till drop!

I wouldn't dare... This came from www.engrish.com, it shows signs that are typed out wrong or translated wrong. This is only the one out of the almost thousands of photo and this comes from the "Chinglish" section. "Chinglish" is the combination of chinese and english, some don't even make sense at all but some are just hilarious just like this one shown here. It appears to be a little inaproppriate, no very inaproppriate, but if you visit www.engrish.com you would see even more funny and hilarious mis-translated signs and they are not as inaproppriate as this one. Have fun at the site cuz it will guarantee to leave you laughing till you drop! Please leave a comment!

Boxhead The Zombie Wars and other Free Internet games @ CrazyMonkeyGames.com

http://www.crazymonkeygames.com/Boxhead-The-Zombie-Wars.html

This is actually a game that I tried lately. I first heard of this in school and I thought it was a movie or cartoon but now I played it and yes it's pure bloody mess, yes it's sometimes sick but the explosions make it look good. Anyway it doesn't matter, what's funny is that I never knew that zombies had blood though. Well whatever, those bums don't have life, so they deserve to be blown up to bits, especially those devils. They just put peoples life in danger with their fires, they shouldn't be playing with fire at all. They aren't really that hard, just a little trick will make him annihilate his own army. Ok enjoy

That End of the World Feeling

That End of the World Feeling
5/31/08
Have you ever noticed that there are so many movies in Hollywood that corresponds with the end of the world, or super disasters that cause the end of the world. Movies such as " The Day After Tomorrow"," 10.5 Apocalypse", or "Category 7 End of The World". Well I don't believe in those things, though I sometimes want to watch it, just to see it's special effects or maybe see how they make the effects so real. But lately, there were many natural disaster that happened possibly in one day or week at a global scale. These things gave some weird feeling that makes everything feel out of order. This feeling first came from a major earthquake in China that measured 7.9 on the richter scale. It happened in Sichuan which contains about 3 provinces that is also called the Szechuan Province. Later on for about 1 week or so there were more than 2000 aftershocks, most were under 3.9 on the richter scale. But there were 2 that measured at 6.6 and 6.4 which would actually be considered a moderate earthquake. Then during this week, there were 3 moderate aftershocks, they were measured at 6.4, 5.7 and 4.7.This constant aftershock that lasts so long is rare and expecially the earthquake that lasted for 3 minutes when normal earthquakes last for only 10 to 15 seconds and cause major damage. Now there are nearly 70,000 people dead and expected to hit 90,000. After these 3 weeks there was news that there was an earthquake in Alaska, which led me to a theory that the " Ring of Fire" might be spreading. The " Ring of Fire" like a Ring that stretches from San Fransisco,California to Chile, South America, then takes a curve to Eastern Australia, up to the Phillipines, then to the Japan and Korea and at last take a curve to the border of Alaska and back down to California. The Ring Of Fire consists of mainly volcanoes and earthquakes and it's really rare that China even has any earthquake, the last earthquake in China was 32 years ago! But earthquake in Alaska is not as rare, though this one was not at the border of Alaska and measured at 6.7 or so. This led to a theory that the "Ring of Fire" is spreading, shifting or a continental shift. Now to Europe, they had a sandstorm that covered the whole sky, it was said that it came from the Sahara Desert in Africa. At the same time scorching temperatures in Europe has already occurred. And in the United States there were constant tornadoes in the " Tornado Alley" or the MidWest, and the tornado season haven't even started yet! So far there more than 100 tornado deaths reported since the start of the year. This is all happens from one day to a week all at once, making me feel a little aware of the feeling that it is the end of the world, though I hope it's not.

YouTube - Teen Robbers Meet Semi-Truck! (truck Crash At 75 MPH)
In this video a couple of teen robbers tries to get away in a pick-up truck with a lawn mower tractor traveling at 75 mph. They pass through a residential neighborhood and then the teens try to pass a busy busy intersection at the red light but is smashed by a Semi trailer . The semi just plows the car through but the driver of the semi puts the truck to a halting stop . This video might be amazing but it can also be horrifying once the pick up is broadsided by the 18 wheeler. Rate the video if you enjoy.

YouTube - Worlds Wildest Police Videos - Crazy Tank Runaway

YouTube - Worlds Wildest Police Videos - Crazy Tank Runaway
I've heard this video on CourtTV and this is the most out of the world story I have ever heard in my life. The video involves a drunk ex-soldier that is a professional at operating tanks and he's going on a joy ride of his life. He goes on a path of rampage, crushing anything in its path. Cars crushed into pancakes, even RV's bulldozed, traffic lights snapped like toothpicks and fire hydrants turned into water fountains. The video shocked me and I think that others were shocked as well because the rating was 4 stars out of 5.

It's also funny how large it is and still dance as fluently as the dancer next to it. Enjoy!

YouTube - Kobe 2007

YouTube - Kobe 2007
Me, Im a basketball fan and I love this sport. Which another reason I love the NBA, I learn some of the moves from watching them on TV. SO in the NBA, I think Kobe Bryant is one of my favorite players, he scores a lot, he gets his team into the playoff and he is, to his team doing his best all the time. Though he is like this now, he wasn't before, he was called a ball hogger by some of his teammates and criticizers. This rumor and comment was all started during a game against the Toronto Raptors when he scored 81 points by himself. But most people forgive him now, he now is simply the best, he now passes, score and even assist his teammate and still getting the team in the playoffs. This video is all about Kobe and his amazing 2007 in the NBA, the shots, the rebounds, passes, and assist. Though he is my favorite player, he is not my favorite team, I surely do have a couple of favorite teams, Spurs, Mavericks, Pistons and the Cavaliers. But for this year in the NBA 2008, the Lakers are #1 in the western conferences it seems amazing already, but this year the Houston Rockets burst into a 22 game winning streak so far, the second longest winning streak in the NBA history. The Sixers are amazing too, they beat my favorite or best teams in the NBA and the Boston Celtics doing the unbelievable as well, they are the #1 in the NBA. With about 52 wins and only 12 losses its practicely what I'm about to say "Whatever's happening is unexpected, but this is proved to be a weird year in the NBA."

This video stars Optimus Prime the 18 wheeler, Bonecrusher the Buffalo Armor Vehicle(army truck), IronHide the GMC, and Devastator the army tank. Enjoy it!

This is the start of the titanic clash between the Decepticons and Autobots, this will then lead to the battlefield, in another word the city. In this video Optimus Prime and Bonecrusher fights in the middle of the highway. Falling off the bridge, transforming in the middle of the highway with cars picked and swerving across the highway, even swords popping out of the transformers this is the perfect action movie ever! More videos !!

TRANSFORMERS

If you have ever heard of the old Japanese comic called "Transformers" , you would know that the movie was in cartoon, well you' ll be happy to know that "Transformers" have been upgraded to look like its right in front of you, using the power of CGI. Michael Bey the producer of the movie is like the new Steven Spielberg, this movie has earned everything that fans have waiting for, to happen. Transformers made it to the top three movie of 2007 and was a record breaker in the box office, movie such as " The Simpsons" , Bourne Ultimatum and Spider Man 3 came along in July and August. Well if your looking for a movie with a lot of imaginations and action, then I guess this will be the perfect movie of all. When I first watched the movie, I was stunned and felt like I was dreaming, because I would've never thought that anyone or any production filmmakers or directors would have pulled it off.
In the movie, BumbleBee and
Optimus Prime were my favorite characters in the movie, but another thought Megatron, Starscream, Devastator, Bonecrusher and Barricade were all awesome and I thought that if they were on the good side then that would be even better. But like most movies the ones with the most power are usually the bad guys. I like Bonecrusher a lot though he was eliminated by Optimus Prime and Megatron was like a tyrant, much stronger than Optimus Prime was defeated by a high school boy named Sam Witwicky who his great great grandfather Captain Witwicky sailed to the north pole along with other crew members and accidentally fell down a hole under deep snow and found a sophisticated machine which he called iceman. The iceman appeared to be Megatron that was later held by the U.S. government as top secret. Then the movie goes on when a war erupts and the earth is used as the battlefield, most came to destroy while some came to defend. Also the bad guys, Decepticons, came to look for Megatron which is the leader and the cube, to take full control of Cybertron, the robots homeland. While the good guys , Autobots , come to defend and prevent Megatron from coming alive and the cube from being held onto the wrong hands. But the U.S. government is in the way of the battle and has no idea what is happening because of the attack on Quatar, a U.S. military base. The government fights the wrong side,and leads to the awakening of Megatron ,though Megatron comes alive and the decepticons have a greater advantage, the autobots and the government finally comes to an understanding and takes care othe cube, which is the only way to stop the decepticons from taking complete control of the war. Sam's great great grandfather was the first person who found megatron and was killed when he set off the power button on Megatron but he couldn't get out of the deep ice and was left stuck for a long time. The U.S. government then took the iceman to Hoover Dam and the transformers, in order to protect or defend the cube and Megatron needed the All Sparks which was the glasses on the captain. The glasses somehow became a kind of signal to the cube and Megatron itself. At the end of the movie a titanic clash between the Autobots and Decepticons inside a very busy city but the fight started all on the highway that then leads to the city. And that was one of my favorite parts, it was the fight between Bonecrusher and Optimus Prime, Optimus Prime an 18 wheeler and bonecrusher a Buffalo Armored Vehicle clashing each other. Bonecrusher at the time goes crazy and throws cars around and Optimus Prime puts a stop to it with his sword that at last cuts bonecrusher's head off. At the end the Autobots win the fight and Megatron is defeated, while other decepticons leave earth.
I love this movie a lot, its a good story, good sequencing, great action and great graphics!!!
Hope Transformer 2 comes out soon, or on time by 2009 June 19!!

Real weird weather!!

Well late last year I said that I wanted it to snow in Philly and yes it did, snowed 7 inches. Well lately the whole family was ready to set up our Direct TV satellite dish, we have tried multiple times for about 3 weeks and finally got it to work all by ourselves which is cool! Today we got it done and to me its an accomplishment and we all learn some new things, but todays weather wasn't really normal, it had rained since yesterday afternoon all till today afternoon. A full 24 hour of rain,and some places in Philadelphia has been flooding, especially the places near the Delaware river. The river seems to be cresting at a rapid rate and people are starting to evacuate out of the area but while Philadelphia is having some heavy rain, other places like northwest Pennsylvania are having heavy snow. Texas itself, which has warm winters instead Well back to our accomplishment of setting up the satellite dish, right after we finished, we decided to put the ladder back onto our van, and 1 hour earlier the weather was fine, the rain had ended but when we got back out it had started again. My dad and I put the ladder onto the van and in order to do that we had to climb onto the roof of the van and tie the rope around the ladder. Right at that moment I felt some strong wind coming , it came none stop for 1 minute and then a gale force wind came along with it nearly knocking me down, and then trashes around us were flying around, even a detergent container went flying in mid air like a missile hitting and bouncing off of walls and hitting a door which made a banging sound that knock the barred door backward. This kind of wind is the strongest gale force wind I've seen in a long time.
