Well my last blog which was a LONG LONG time ago promised that I would be more active on here. Well its kind of been the opposite but oh well. A lot has gone on since I was last on here so I'll explain it all in this blog.
New Games!
I have gotten a couple of new games, Rock Band 2, Counter Strike: Source, and WoW: WotLK namely. Rock Band 2, I have been loving since I have gotten it back in May. Currently I only play on the hard difficulty on Guitar, but I'm working up to expert. CS:S was gifted to me via Steam, I am not able to play it yet (I'll explain later). WotLK was also bought to me by a friend, although I don't intend to start playing just yet, maybe in a couple of months. I did however sign in and check out some of the new changes, and I can say that I will probably love it when I start playing again. Don't ask for my server or account name.
What I have been playing.
Well I have been playing loads of Rock Band 2, Empire: Total War, and Medieval II: Total War on the Stainless Steel mod. I even dusted off my old Rome: Total War to have a go at, but I would rather play M2:TW or E:TW. So in the last paragraph, I mentioned that I couldn't play any games yet. This isn't due to too much school work, or my computer not being up to the test. Its actually sort of a bet. One of my friends said that I play games way too much, she commented that I played 421 hours of Empire since I got it back on the Canadian release date of March 6th. I agree that it is a bit much so I have promised her that I would stop playing games of any sort for a week - June 2nd to June 9th. I am so bored right now.
Youtube can go to hell.
Why do I say this? You all know that I have a Youtube account (Its in my banner if you want to know) and I had gotten about 170ish subscribers through hard work of making videos. Well suddenly I get a warning from Youtube about copyright infringement off of one of my videos from some no name musician by the name of "Musician of Universal Asian Mixer Dj Armz". Not only is it a stupid name, I have never heard of this guy. Also, after a short look of his songs, I have never used any of his songs. Before being able to make a counter-DMCA claim, I get suspended. Now I have made along with my brother, Bravo189 a new Youtube account, CanuckFilms which is a reference to us being Canadian and our favourite hockey team, the Vancouver Canucks. Check it out please.
The Stanley Cup Finals!
Now since I'm Canadian, I love hockey! I was rooting for the Canucks this year like I do every other year, and I was absolutely heart-broken when they lost to the Blackhawks 4-2 in the series. I live in Toronto (Toronto is my second favourite team), so watching their games aren't easy because of a three hour difference. However I stayed up to watch every single second of that series, even that disastrous Game Six where we lost 7-5. It was a great game, and I am not going to blame Luongo (our goalie) for letting in 7 on 30 shots. He had an offnight when we needed him, but without him, we wouldn't have gotten to where we did in the first place. Next year will be the year, or the next, or the next. I'm used to my teams, Vancouver and Toronto, not winning anything.
Anyways, I don't want Detroit winning another cup, so for the Finals I'll be pulling for the Penguins. Game Four tonight! Thats it for my blog.
