So very true.

It’s been an interesting year for me, and I can only guess the same goes for most of you.

Tragedy and Joy, political intrigue the Global Financial Crisis, the Election of America’s first African American President (Yes I know he’s not 100% African American but the fact that is an issue speaks volumes about the American populace and the important step this was for America as a  whole.)

The sad and truly unwholesome death of ‘the King of Pop’ Michael Jackson (When i say unwholesome I wish to refer to the vultures and ass clowns whom simply would not let the poor man rest in piece. Simply put have some respect for the dead you ass clowns.)

On 23 November 2009, the first proton–proton collisions were recorded, at the injection energy of 450 GeV per particle.

So It’s not a big surprise to people that know me when I bitch about Halo. The rave, the lunacy, the frat boy society that pervades the Halo Franchise all in all simply takes a less than absolute fps game experience and defecates on it. Let’s just get it all out in the air. Halo is a console fps and console fps’ are still 3 years behind PC fps games. That is of course until Activision’s COD4.

Those of you who have played COD 4 will have undoubtedly appreciated in both console and PC form. Being that PC is my preferred gaming media device I will say COD4 on PC was better than COD 4 on Console however the experience is legitimately arguable. COD 4 brought real fps gaming to the Console. None of this uber jump and sniper pistols, no Zombies’ or Alien’s or Alien Zombies in fact not even forgetull pathing ai’s. COD 4 was plain and simple a tactical modern combat game across all consoles. ( It could be argued that COD 2 and COD 3 were pc/console equivalents. They weren’t!)

COD6 is that and more.

I’ve just finished the Call of Duty – Modern Warfare 2 single player campaign on normal and I can only describe the experience as the single most intense and absorbing piece of entertainment media I have ever had the pleasure to be a part of. ** please note full article may have spoilers. Though if you have been reading the news or have any interest in the game you’ll know what I’m talking about already.

So the missus(Wife/Girlfriend for the un-Australian.) recently bought me Assassin’s Creed II (I know I know, I was all like WTF ORSM). Initially I wasn’t incredibly impressed. The game play followed very closely to the original (not in itself a bad thing) and I had started to think perhaps it was simply the same game with a different character and new settings. To some extent this is true however after a few hours of  intensely enjoyable game play I had found the new an improved Price of Persia Rip Off that we had all come to love.
