Ok so you might now be asking wtf is co-op mode?

You know how when you have played a game all the way through and kicked some A.I. back side all over the map, the game tends to get dull. Most of us try to crank up the intensity and play the whole thing again. It's still enjoyable but it is missing something. What Co-Op is going to do for the first time ever is allow upto four players to experience single-player missions together for greater game play and tactical execution.

Want to rank up fast? You guessed it. The co-op campaign allows players to rank up and unlock perks in competitive multiplayer by completing challenges and earning experience points, adding continuous re-playability and team-based game-play. Whether playing competitively or cooperatively – if players are on line with Call of Duty: World at War – they will always gain experience points.

Another kicker here is that the game engine will base the intensity of the game on a player’s experience rank and the rank of the player’s friends. Call of Duty: World at War will scale dynamically to provide a deeper level of challenge and more intense combat for all involved.

Stay tuned for more!

At current they have been focusing on the 360 platform Beta's. The reality is that the 360 provides more players and users than the PC platform. That's not opinion, it's fact. From a sales perspective it makes more sense to kiss the back side of those who stand to make the majority of your money for you in the beginning and that is why they are targeting the 360 gamers first.

Does this mean that they are not going to be paying as much attention to the PC version of the World at War release? The answer to that is a resounding no. The designers and programmers behind the game are all PC gamers, and proclaim that they always will be. So is the Associate Producer, Multiplayer Design Director, PC Director, and the entire team of engineers on the PC team.

Currently the 360 BETA is released and running wild. This will allow them a little more time tweaking and ironing out wrinkles on the game.

Rest assured at this point in time forward the bulk of the news coming out from now on will be about the PC BETA.

When will the PC gaming community be able to get the Beta of World at War? I bet you can guess the answer to this one. The PC BETA will be released SOON!

More info on when and how it will be released will be made available next week.

The Beta is promised to be one worth waiting for according to the guys behind the game. You have no idea what is in store for the PC folks. In the end they don't want to hear anyone say they have shunned the PC community. They continue to say "Wait until you've seen what we've done for it."

I can say you will be impressed when you see the mapping, modding, new PC features, servers, and general PC support. We will reserve the right however to pass judgment on how we've been treated as PC gaming fans after the Beta is in our hands.

Stay tuned PC Gaming Fans! More information is on it's way in the next few days!

Yeah, this rule 34, it angers/shocks/annoys me immensely. I think it all started way back in like 2003 or so, when I was foolish enough to image google for like "taru taru" or something in school, and despite safe search being on.. ugh.. you don't wanna know. Yeah, these sorts of things really don't amuse me - I'm not really sure why but I really get disgusted by them, and they make me angry. I think, it's the same thing if something like that ever happened with a character I'd created, I'd not really be very happy about it. At all.

So yeah, for someone who hates that so much, I really shouldn't look at 4chan as much as I do, but well, I generally stick to /v/ with the occasional glance at /a/ to see if there's subs for a show I watch etc. (Speaking of which, Corpse Princess/Raoh Gaiden subs, fucking where?) Generally, stuff like that should remain in like.. I dunno /e/ or /h/ or /b/, aka the boards I don't look at. It's a shame the mods don't seem to care about stuff like that, and of course, a huge % of 4chan users are the same faggots from places like animesuki and gaia, only because they are anonymous they think they can be massive faggots about it. Shrug, it's not really a huge issue, I suppose. I just get annoyed when I see things like that.

It's not even fanart.. it's.. wrong.

In other news I'm hating this fucking weather so much, literally every day this week involves surveys in the morning, what does that mean? Essentially I have to stand on a fucking ladder outside, in the rain/wind, smashing stuff with rulers whilst my mp3 player plays music at 90000% volume into my brain. FUN. I mean, why could it not be in the afternoon or something? Morning always has the worst weather asjfhsdfjhasgh bah. See, I try to avoid ranting about work, as I can't imagine it's even funny to read, as opposed to my rants where I backflip off my chair, break my spine and then set my house on fire. Add to that, once I begin ranting I find it hard to stop, and it escalates horribly, hence, I'm going to nip it in the bud.

So...Warriors Orochi 2 got patched, hence, review will be soon. I picked up an anime from some time in like 2003 called Scrapped Princess (or Scra-Prin, apparently) 'cos I was wondering what to waste time watching. As for why I picked it up, well, a) it's by BONES. b) It's fantasy.                                                                          

I love me some fantasy, and sadly it's an under-used genre in anime I would have to say. That is, you know.. high fantasy, swords/knights/dragons and all that stuff. So yeah, Scra-prin has swords, knights AND dragons, and supposedly later on it has sci-fi elements or something, which is also good. I'm 12 episodes in and it's not really amazing, but it's original to a degree, animation is fairly nice, especially in fight scenes, music is fine.. so yeah, it's fine. RahXephon is also on my list of stuff to watch (another BONES series) and uh.. aside from that, I recently read FMA the manga, despite my plan to not read it until it was finished.. but that plan failed. I liked it, I guess. Bleach is off filler soon, so I'll pick it up again then and see if it's any better (please don't screw up the Noitora/Kenpachi fight, Pierrot or whatever your name is, dumb studio). Hmm, Raoh gaiden and Corpse Princess (Shikibane Hime or something) both really need subs.. so I have more to follow other than Bleach, Soul Eater and Xam'd. Speaking of Xam'd.. I wonder when GGR's 13 will be out.

In summary, not much has happened. Not much ever happens. Fable 2's out in 17 days.. should I do a fable themed blog overhaul..? No. Fable is good and all but it's not DW week.. even if it's a better game.. it's just Fable. Speaking of which, Adam give me my Fable one back you've had it for like 5 fucking years. Sheesh..anyway.. yeah. Fable II coming soon, SR2 (which I may or may not get) coming later, and then Gears of War 2, Far Cry 2, Fallout 3, COD5.. whueh, I no doubt forgot something, but there's a killer lineup which I've not seen the likes of in a while. No, last year doesn't count, Assman's Creed is shit and Mass Effect is too DEEP for me.

Hmm.. did I mention my E7 DVDs that are fucking weird? Well, I bought E7 the complete series as I tend to do for stuff I think is real awesome (Cowboy Bebop, Akira, et all) and uh.. I got the whole thing for £27 which seemed oddly cheap, considering it was down from £50-something. Whatever, I thought, so then when it arrived the other day, I found myself staring at the box.. which had pictures of Xam'd on it, for some reason. Also had a type, but whatever. So I open it up, one of the DVDs has.. artwork of Xam'd on it! Maybe it was some promotional thing, I don't know. Well, I do know. Turns out it was a misprinted copy or something, hence the very low price, quality of the episodes is inferior to the episodes on my HDD (which are TV rips, so having DVD quality worse than that.. is a tad depressing) but hey, I guess that's what happens when you compress a 50 episodes series onto 5 disks. Again, I don't really mind. I'll probably never really watch it, maybe once for the dub but shrug. I supported the production by buying a copy, that's enough for me. Maybe I'll give it to one of my friends who likes anime.. or indeed, my sister. (Who likes Naruto, wtf?)

Well, games/anime/hatred of rule34 all covered, I guess that's enough?

OH, of course, I doubt anybody really cares, but.. remember this?

"No I don't remember that huge fucking .png"

Well, understandable.

Anyway yeah I just figured I'd mention.. it's not dead, I'm still doing it, I was planning to do 10 chapters before I even start uploading, but I figure, 5'll be enough, they are somewhat longer than previous chapters I'ev done so.. yeah. One chapter a month, starting from.. I dunno, whenever I finish chapter 5.

Yeah, I hope it's enjoyable to read, I could care less about bad grammar and so forth so don't go in expecting an amazing piece of literature, I'm terrible at writing, I'm more of a movie person. (Which is why some of my stuff reads like a script of a film, I don't describe ANYTHING) Although, one advantage of writing in the WC universe is that well - you all know what I'm talking about. You can picture for yourself what the scene looks like if I say "Walking through Elwynn forest at night". Mmhmm.

Oh right, I hope a certain person gets his uni XBL stuff working. That'd dampen the fury of Fable II joy if it doesn't. =(

BYE.

Quiero citar el mensaje que mi amigo Mckalnder a dejado en los foros APS.

COD5 (Beta) Primera patada en los huevos

¿Por qué pongo un titulo asi a un post?

Porque es lo que he sentido al descubrir en la página de meristation que apartir de las 8 de la mañana de hoy estaban dando 5000 códigos a sus usuarios, para jugar a una beta multijugador del COD5, y diréis: ¡Genial! Mcklander consiguenos para el clan también, pues no, solo hay beta para XBOX360 y PC, como pasó con COD4 el año pasado, espero que esta vez tengan cabeza y aunque tarden mas en sacarla en PS3 lo hagan para probar fallos del online, el año pasado tanto en XBOX360 como en PC pudieron corregir fallos que aún estamos esperando nos corrigan en el COD4, por favor que no nos la vuelvan a meter doblada!!!!!!

Todos sabemos que COD4, tuvo muchísimos problemas en su modo online los primeros dias y es muy comprensible el enfado por parte de la comunidad PS3. (Pagamos los Bluray mas caros que los DVD, No pirateamos los juego y después resulta que los que mejor servicio tienen son Xbox y PC) (hay que joderse).

Estoy totalmente de acuerdo con Mcklander, (esto sienta como una patada en los huevos). Pues como tengo un poco de tiempo, he remitido un correo electronico a Activision, mostrando mi indignación y preguntando si tienen pensado sacar una bata para el sistema playstation. A continuación, cito el mencionado email.

Me pongo en contacto con ustedes, en nombre propio y en nombre del Clan APS,  para trasmitirles nuestra idignacion al conocer la noticia de que Activision esta regalando codigos para la beta de COD5 en xbox y PC. Aqui la noticia: http://www.meristation.com/v3/des_articulo.php?pic=GEN&id=cw48d770f1087d5&idj=

Como usuario de Playstation 3, y comprador de toda la saga COD, me siento indignado con la politica de su empresa. Ya paso con COD4 y vuelve a pasar con COD5,.
¿No tenemos derecho los usuarios de Playstation? ¿No no pagamos mas por los Bluray de ps3 que por un DVD de xbox o PC?

Rogamos, nos confirmen si tienen pensado sacar una beta para COD5 en el sistema Playstation 3. y en su caso una fecha aproximada de ella.

A la espera de recibir noticias suyas, Reciban un cordial saludo.

Jose Sanchez.

Pues así están las cosas, si los chicos de Activision me contestan, os mantendré informados a todos. Si hay beta, de PM, si no, nos jodemos y volvemos a pasar una temporada de pena con el online. Se abren las apuestas

<Apachai> thanks, it's good to him anymore

Indeed.

So.. so so so, the blog, and the updates, and the apadabadoo, what's been going on, what is going on, why is it going on and is it a good thing that it is going on? Well.. let's see..

First off, I've not been doing much, just enjoying my last week of non-workyness, as on Monday I officially begin work again (not that my work is anywhere near difficult or even time consuming) My thoughts are, even if it gets me money, why should I do something that I despise and hold no interest in. So, I've been playing the usual, GTAIV, TF2, SCIV, FFXI and so on. I still suck at TF2 but I don't really care, FFXI I'm not playing as much as I would like as I'm attempting to level with a certain moron who's NEVER on, I may just level without him as it's beginning to bug me.

So, what else has been going on, from the Lant side, not really much, just some stuff, oh, to clarify, I am two people in one, there's the Lant side, which is the normal side, who plays Soul Calibur, Brawl, normal games and stuff, then there's the Montman side, which is the MMO  aka wierder side. Indeed, on the Montman side some things have been happening, namely, this.

[vodpod id=Groupvideo.1481421&w=425&h=350&fv=clip_id%3D1529351%26server%3Dwww.vimeo.com%26autoplay%3D0%26fullscreen%3D1%26md5%3D%26show_portrait%3D0%26show_title%3D0%26show_byline%3D0%26context%3D%26context_id%3D]

Indeed, watching that (oh and thanks for putting it on Vimeo Nutty, that doesn't make it hard to embed at all) inspired me to make this.

Also, I like how Nutty gave it an actual name etc, I just call my files.. well let's see now.

• "Rumbla.mp3"
• "Iantootgnasha.mp3"
• "Adsfg.mp3"
• "Snorta.mp3"
• "CityofIan.mp3"

Yeah.. I sort of just pound out the first thing that comes to mind. Oh well! Hmm so there was that and uh.. yeah that's pretty much it. If you were wondering that the post prior to this was about, not much really, I just found that picture oddly relevant, I finish work, look at the internet, and then despair and the stupid things I find there, then, naturally, I add to the stupidity.

Ohhh right that reminds me, before I go to eat (and I am pretty fucking hungry)

Saint's Row 2, Lantolio, what the fuck, I hear you cry, but wait, hear me out. I know it's a game about rappers much like GTA:SA is/was, but look on the bright side, when you boil it down, it's pretty much just GTAIV, with co-op mode, different things, MP mode that looks as interesting as GTAIV's.. and..

YOU CAN THROW PEOPLE.

So what? You can throw people? Use your imagination you swirling snorting shitty anuswanderer!

You can throw people into PLANES, TRAINS, AND CARS. Indeed, in the quick demo they showed, he threw somebody off the top of a building, and another person into the wing engine of a plane, assuming you can do that in multiplayer.. heh-heh-heh. So yeah, If I can get a few of my friends to buy it, I think Saint's Row 2 will be a getter.

Now then, Call of Duty 5, I'll bet if you're reading this you were pretty skeptical as to the game being good, it's not done by Infinity Ward, afterall, I shared your worries up until a few days ago. Why? Well, aside from the fact that it's being built on the great COD4 engine, the game now has online 4 player co-op, the few scenes they've demo'd looks like they are keeping the "intense" nature of COD4, and improving upon it, getting Jack Bauer to voice one of the Sergeants is a pretty cunning scheme too. The battles look alot more open, which is something very good for a WW2 shooter, you can hobble about these large fields in Japan, burning the trees and grass with flamethrowers, as planes zoom about overhead.  Of course.. there are a few gripes I have with it, not really huge issues though.

It's WW2 based again, I don't really like WW2 shooters to be honest.

No British campaign. Not really an issue but.. I think alot of people do prefer to play as their own country in games like this, I think that may be one reason COD4 is so popular here in the UK (voted the best game of all time recently over here) I may be wrong, who knows.

So yeah, aside from Fable 2, Gears of War 2, potentially The Force Unleashed (that title bugs me, as it begins with The) and Warriors Orochi 2, there's Saint's Row 2 and CoD5, and for you Sonyfriends, there's uh.. Little big planet and Resistance 2, which both look alright. For Wii owners? lol. Brawl's been and gone.

Oh right, there's a rumour going around several non reputable places, that in 2009 Nintendo will release a portable Gamecube, much like the PsP, to replace the DS? I doubt it.. perhaps this is to appeal to their "hardcore" market.. god knows they are losing them. Especially after that embarassing E3 show. Come on Nintendo.. you've got THE PERFECT FUCKING CONTROL SCHEME FOR IT.

WHERE IS MY FUCKING F-ZERO AND LYLAT WARS.

Probably in the same place as my new Zelda game. Idiots. Why is it that I can market to hardcore gamers better than 20+ year old company.. bring out a new Zelda, build in co-op gameplay much like Four Swords, but make it in a style much like the classic Zelda (classic 90-2000's Zelda, not the classic classic Zelda) then just add in Wi-Fi co-op play. Voila, you've got a game that appeals to retard scrubs and actual gamers at the same time. Then, bring out a new F Zero game which utilizes the Wiimote/nunchuk in a great way for a racing game (which you can do) and then do the same for a Lylat Wars/Star Fox game. Hell, maybe even bring out a new Smash Bros game for the DS, that's another game bound to sell millions, even if you just make it a port of Smash 64 with updated graphics, online play and a few new characters/modes etc.

As for you Blizzard, I've got my eye on you. Why don't you use that money you get from 10 million subs on something decent, not some shitty Diablo game, or even worse Starcraft game, why don't you use it to make an MMORPG that is fucking AMAZING. I don't really care if from a business point of view it's stupid to have competition to your own game or whatever the fuck, does anybody honestly think if WoW loses 1-2 million players to a new Blizzard MMO, it'd affect them? lol?

Think about it logically, Blizzard uses their absurd amounts of money to hire some people with brains, and these people make an MMORPG that is fucking AWESOME and what an MMO game should be like. Then, oh I dunno, say, the 5% of non retarded WoW players migrates over to it, along with a couple of new players, bam, there you go. A great MMO with a user base of 500,000-750,000, the perfect number. I hate when MMO's get too many players, it ruins the game, look at WoW. It's steadily got worse and fucking worse over the years as more IDIOTS begin playing it. Small playerbase of intelligent people >>> Huge playerbase of scrubs.

HMMMMMM.

I'm off to FUCKING EAT. BYE.

(Oh right quick note, anime stuff. No Jump! this week, Soul Eater was good,

Geass will no doubt be good, that's about it, bye!)

Oh yeah, I forgot this.
