Half-life 2: Completed

Oh man, this was an awesome game. Well, for a 4-year old game XD I bought it yesterday, and it took roughly 11 hours. Makaru and I have agreed many things, for example: There is a reason we don't go to Ravenholm anymore. *shivers* I. HATE. GUNSHIPS. For that matter... I. HATE. STRIDERS. ... I. HATE. HEADCRABS. Oh, and while I'm complaining... I. HATE. FALLING. OFF. OF. BRIDGES. That hatred follows on to every single sequel. Except for the hatred of Gunships, since I on

Now For A Serious Portal 2 Blog Entry

So, I have finished the story modes of both Single Player and Multiplayer.   I must commend the following players for assisting me in getting to the ending of multiplayer:   Erebus Timboman (yes, he's still alive out there ) Tesseract (ditto on that part)   Erebus and I started it off, got to about part 2 and called it good, Timboman and I played til about part 4, then I replayed with ER, got him up to speed, then finished it all off with Timboman to the ending. I won't spoil any of it for

I Can Has Recon?

Sorry, I just had to do it.   If you get the joke, more power to you.   Otherwise, you'll be wondering why I asked I can have Hero Recon rather stupidly.   But yeah, looks interesting. I'll probably download LDD later to try it out *dedicated LDRAW user*

Project Build Mata Nui: The Ending...?

So, Xccj posted a few photos, so now it's time I post the BTS pics 8D     Poor Jaller. Legoitis; Symptoms include redness, dimples resembling a LEGO studded baseplate pattern, and loss of feeling. Treatments include not leaning on LEGO baseplates, and taking a quick break while leaning on another part of the table not covered by LEGO baseplates. A very well designed outline of our decided-upon design for Papa Nihu Reef. Thar be easter eggs here 8D Xccj spent part of the second day on expandi

BrickCon Journal Entry #1: New Series?

... Nah, I'll forget it exists in a week. XD   Anyway, I am all packed up for BrickCon as far as models go, except I need to finish my wacky racer.   I'm also set for the hotel (still figuring out transportation, but it seems pretty safe to me) and all that.   So yeah, I look forward to it next week 8D

BrickCon Journal Entry #2: Now with more procrastination!

Woo, 6 days til the big one comes!   I have FINALLY secured a space for my Mata Nui island at BrickCon. However, it isn't EXACTLY how I want it displayed, nor where I intended. It's also not finalized yet where it goes.   Fortunately it's got room, the coordinators noted I registered it early enough and they have the room.   Meantime, the other stuff is also ready to go. Let's see what happens there.   And also Xccj's angled mosaic stuff is safely in my care, ready to be assembled. Next Friday b

T - 4 Days

So I have everything set up LEGO-wise for BCascade. I have a grand total of 10 boxes to take:   5 for the main island 1 for the baseplate that goes around it (I have to double-check them) 1 for the volcano crater top (IT LOOKS MUCH BETTER, TRUST ME) 1 for the Superhero Megafigs (Green Lantern and Captain America) 1 for the Bionicle pens and random brick I'm bringing. 1 for the Nuva Cube (Of course I'm bringing that :3)   Basically that's 10 boxes. Plenty of boxes XD I'm thinking I'll set up the

Return

It has been an age since I last posted here.   Have I anything to say? Nah.   Besides, what makes me think I'm notable here? -

One Week Away

Back in early November 2011, Xccj and I discussed in detail the idea of building the island of Mata Nui in system brick. We debated many times over how we could do it, eventually deciding on how to do it and where to get the material.   That's when I told my boss Dan Parker.   On March 12th through the 16th, we finally build it. And you're all invited to help : D   Basically, if you live in the Pacific Northwest, able to travel to Tacoma, and want to help out building a system-based island, plea

More Portal 2 Gibberish

First, I should add a Gaming category. I talk about games so much   Second, I think if they make a third game, the Turret King should be the boss. You know who I mean.   Imagine him crashing into a wall in a test chamber randomly. "I SEE YOU!" in a loud booming voice.   "ARE YOU STILL THERE?"   ... "NAP TIME."   That would be epic to be chased by all game. I'd love to see his electronic eye point at you randomly in levels as he searches for you.   "THERE YOU ARE!"   And then, just for fu

MakutaFest... No, I don't have prizes this time.

Basically, I underestimated how many BZP members going to BrickFair would be interested in joining in on MakutaFest.   Therefore we might push the time back to 7 PM EDT/4 PM PDT. (We're -still- discussing this internally, BZP reporting jumped the gun on us.)   And yes, I realize the closing ceremonies is at 6 PM EDT. But if we push it too far back, nobody else could attend.   Sorry folks, I'm really trying my best.

I Love My Job

Have you ever gone to work, set up a laptop, sat for a few minutes to wake up, then get to work on building a sculpture in LEGO?   There -is- a drawback... sifted through an old construction toy collection for cleaning... and there was 50% Mega Bloks. o_o bbl dyingofcancer.

Review Of Lego Star Wars Iii Demo For Xbox 360

Just one statement, really:   WHY MUST I WAIT A WHOLE MONTH FOR THIS?!   That's really it.   I love the graphics upgrade, the change over with both the lightsaber change, and the gameplay mechanic for vehicle fights. I -love- the fact we can now land them and exit our ship and fight droids. I dunno about what I think will be a real-time strategy mode, but hey, it can't be all too bad right?   Force powers are MUCH better. I love the fact it works like the LEGO Harry Potter Wingadium Leviosa

Sbc: System Building Contest

I am in the process of planning a System Building Contest here on my blog.   Feel free to suggest a theme, maybe we'll get enough interest to actually do something amazing.   All I know so far is all entries will be voted upon, then judged by top folk (also known as me, and maybe a few friends XD I'd love to ask my boss Dan Parker to judge, but he may be too busy, who knows.)   So let's get some ideas flowing.

A Thought

You know, I'm always playing video games, I'm always talking about video games, and I'm usually always bored. So, what's stopping me from making, in my blog, a BZP-friendly review of the current video games? (360 and PC only, of course.)   Naturally, I'd probably review my collection, not the new stuff. I'm not going to buy games just to review them   Now question becomes, would anybody want to read about a bored man's ramblings about CLASSIC VIDEO GAMES FROM... *checks* 2004?! (Oh, and I sup

Scott Menville In Lego Batman 2

I just learned that Scott Menville will be in LEGO Batman 2.   As Robin.   ....... Holy carp.   NOW I'M DEFINITELY GLAD I RESERVED THIS GAME 8O   Also it means Robin's still Dick Grayson. Was kinda hoping we'd have Tim Drake by now. But mainly because I'm a bigger Nightwing fan anyway.   Also they better let Green Lantern have the ability to construct green objects like mechs and stuff.   ... And we need a Teen Titans-themed level, by the way.   ... And Justice League. Though how Flash will work

Small Debates Are... Win. (Music Debate)

So a few friends of mine online decided to debate, briefly, what would be the #1 song you would pick from The Beatles to introduce the band to someone who (for some weird reason) never heard of them.   To clarify, I don't mean their best or greatest, rather the song that best defines them and their career. That's arguably even tougher than the best song to some.   So what do you guys think?   (While we're at it, if you can think of the same for any other band you can think of, feel free.)

Life

Took me 10 minutes to come up with that title. Now -that's- sad.   So a few small updates on my end, the Mirus are stored safely in my safekeeping. I also have not YET seen TDKR. I'm waiting for the end of the week. Work is steady but it'll be busy all next week.   Basically, I have -nothing- to blog about, cause it's boring here. I should do something amazing and blog about that.   ... Or sit down and do the Office 2013 review I threatened said I'd do.

Assassin's Creed 3

............   I'm going to try and be non-spoiler about it.   But suffice to say I wish I didn't self-censor ;_;   ... End of Sequence Three. That is all.
