Observant Part 1

Or the lack of. I went to McDonalds about 17 miles away at noon.Noon is when the masses go to McDonalds. I saw some the most interesting people watching I have ever done. I think I have better understanding for 21st century people and the McDonald employes. Now when driving the closer I got to civilization the crazier things were 

Then I got to McDonalds. there were probaly a 75-100 people were at McDonalds between the drive thru and inside.Well I swore to myself that I would never work at McDonalds after seeing that many people . This also made me thankful for my job. I have what you would call a highschool job as a cashier and it would never get that busy in a hundred years. So I know a lot of us think we have it rough as students or teachers but just because you think they don't deserve to be over the poverty line because you don't think you make enough is rigged. I dont think the minmum wage should be raised but it should be for a massive corporation such as McDonald's what had a 4.9 billion dollar profit. Now one of the bigger arguements is that are troops in Iraq only get paid approximately excluding benefits 19,000 dollars. Now I think instead of telling the McDonalds people to suck it up. I think the McDonalds could cut there profit magin by a smige and the goverment could raise the soldier salarys a little just saying that f###### ridiculous that soldier only get paid 19,000 as a private. I aint gettin shot for minimum wage. The U.S miltary budget is bigger than the next 10 countries combined. So stop spending all of the money on your Black Projects and start spending it on your troops.

 Time to get back to McDonalds and I walked through the front door and a long behold another McDonald customer had spilled there orange pop in front of the front door. I got in line that was basically a less dangerous version of the Hunger Games. That's were thing got interesting. At first I saw a manager and a troubled kid try to clean it  but he grabbed the wrong mop so he was told to go get a different more effective mop. The manager had to back to the front line ( cash register). So then some elderly people walked in and didn't notice the spot and proceeded to walk right into the spot. They were utterly disgusted and they saw the Chaos, So they left. There two sides to this scenario on the one side you this old people who were disgusted by the spill and then you had the poor manager with troubled kid who got the wrong mop. No one was really at fault but they both had completely different perspectives on stain. it was a chore for one and a disgusting thing for the other one.  The next people who walked were a dad and son there were possibly the most oblivious people I had ever seem they walked right through the mess without a care in the world and then proceeded to track filth throughout the whole McDonald's.  

  Its funny that I could've just been ignorant to whole situation and then proceed with my day but I chose to access the situation what is a skill what is disappearing by every  generation o .

VGXS/VGAS are they even worth it

The VGAs or VGXS are a yearly gaming award show what takes place in December. This has been a hot topic in the gaming industry either for its ridiculous show what is at some points cringe worthy or its awesome reveals such as No Mans Sky what looks like the next big thing.




So who runs the show,Geoff Keighley. He is the heart and soul of the VGAS. He has made some poor choices in the past such as hiring Joel Mchale who during the 2013 show and Joel completely ripped him a new a##hole. You could even tell he was getting upset with Joel. He has a tainted history such as when Geoff was pictured with Doritos and Mountain Dew (pictured left: for people that dont know that is a bad sign in gaming industry that you have been bought out by the big guys).

So why do I still support Geoff because I think he is a genuine gamer who has been in the industry since his childhood and I think his corporate overlords Cough (Spike TV) mainstream his show for the YOLO generation. I have watched him on Gametraliers and on previous VGAS and I truly think hes a good guy .

So if you have time and your mildly interested in video games. I think you should give the VGAS a shot. They have gotten away from there Spike TV overlords and they do have some good content on their show such as mini Documentaries , interviews and of course game reveals. 

Stuff I want to get before I Go to college (Fun Edition)

  I have been eying stuff to get before I go to college.Most of it cough all of it is electronics.some off it is over zealous and other stuff is more practical.Will I get probably not all of the Stuff.

            Why do I want a Wii U because of all of the exclusives.Now is the Wii U going to be my primary console no but it going be the most played when the New Zelda drops or WHEN STARFOX COMES OUT! There is also more games then just that like Mario Kart 8 what looks awesome and make really make me want a Wii U and Super Mario 3D world pictured to left looks awesome to.Then there are cool looking Japanese game what is simple called X what I have no idea what going on in the trailer but I like that. Then there is (make sure I still have chest hair)  Toad Tracker game and Yoshi Yarns what is utterly adorable I have always been sucker for Toad. 
 
What is this 4k TV blasphemy . Its the next step in the resolutions evolution (it rhymes :)I want a  4k TV because it obviously will provide better overall picture quality with the upscaler chip inside making all my game look better and plus I will get a bigger TV at that and that will be nice to. Plus it will be future proof for when 4k becomes main stream while I am in college and will be broke. It probably help my social status little bit around campus to.

Games , Games and More Games. 2015 looks awesome for you guessed it video games. There is your big Triple As such as Halo 5, Just Cause 3 and Batman Arkham Knight. there are also some cool indies games like Star Citizen , Super Hot. So in college your bored to tears eating ramen Noodles and broke as a hobo out side of McDonalds. So having game like just cause 3 what can  last  95+ hours is super important. Then me and my roommates will have something to play.

GTX 980's purpose just like the 4k TV is to be future proof. It has twice the performance as my current card the GTX 770 2gb. For the less tech person is that my games will run better and look better than they do now. meaning I will not be able to push games to 4k but most definitely push them above 1080P and beyond.

Black Friday Survival guide

The fabled holiday, of shopaholics and people trying to save money for Christmas. This will be my third year going into battlegrounds. You need to be ready for when it starts. 

•  First you need to find your "deal" personally I'm going for the 4k tv at Best Buy. 

• Go a couple of hours early at least to figure out where everything is going to be at, it's not crazy for them move TVS to the fruit section, trust me.

• Also be ready to wait outside depending on the store. They could possibly lock you out. Then those that are open for 24/7 like Walmart where you can find stuff in the store before deal starts. They usually have the Deal Items wrapped up, so watch out for those.

• Another thing is bring a crew. It doesn't  hurt if your going for multiple items.Also when in the heat of hundreds of people , don't be afraid to "move some people out of your way" . 

•  Also when you win your TV, make sure you have room in your vehicle. 

If you follow these steps you will Black Friday.

The Xbox 360 is a TANK

Happy Birthday Xbox 360! The 360s birthday is this month. The 360 has aged but it has aged well.from the time it was created it still has the horsepower to run games today. 360 has held up more than any other console in any other generation.

    The Xbox 360 is turning 9 years old on November 22^{nd .} It can still run 2014 games with no problem. Now, are they going to run at 1080p and have 60 frames per second? No. But they can run and that’s insane  if you look at every other console generation. They have given up on the last generation consoles pretty quickly.

Xbox 360 still has games coming out for it. The Xbox 360 just got their own Borderlands game, as of right now, it not going to the next generation. Some of the biggest block busters are still coming to the last genration, Far Cry 4, Titanfall and Assassin Creed Rouge. The Xbox 360 is older than Twitter but is still culturally relevant. I had logged thousands of hours on my Xbox 360 and I thoroughly enjoy playing on it but I think it time for people to move on, sort of.  

          I really enjoy my Xbox 360 I have probably 60+ unplayed games but the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are substantially better at everything. They're quicker, more powerful and NEW!  A lot  of time I think my Xbox 360 is frozen but its just because it’s too slow. The Xbox One has better visuals and higher frame rates. The load times can actually be increased with hardrives and SSDS.

          The Xbox 360 shouldn’t be shelved yet because legends don’t die. The Xbox 360 has support until 2016 (hopefully late) but I think there is enough value and game prices are starting to drop dramatically for you to keep your Xbox 360. Plus,that Gamerscore dough.  I love my Xbox and I will probably never get rid of it.

4K TV hands on

       I went to best buy last Saturday and test out a 4K 75 inch monster TV. I hooked my buddies Xbox One to it and got mixed results. Also the best buy guy was staring us down like a hawk and best buy guy helped us set it up but he looked at us like we were the biggest bothers to his well being in life(he was kind of a jerk).So we tried testing Destiny but it has DRM polices (so it had to be online), so that was a no go. First we tried testing Metro Redux and it looked absolutely tread full, there was pixelation a mile high. The best guy oblivious didn't want us to go any further with metro.He said in smug voice we should check out a game for the next generation. At this point I'm trying to look interested but in back of my mind I'm running for the hills. Then we tried Forza Horizon 2 But because of Updates!, we couldn't try it in game but we did see the game model on the title screen and it look fantastic. It up scaled perfectly and it looked awesome but again it just the menu. At this point I'm getting frustrated because I want to see a game in 4K that's the whole reason we took this trip in first place ( I live 55 miles from Best Buy). So we final got to play a game, it was the brand new Spakin Xbox one Exclusive Sunset Overdrive. It almost looked like 3d like and looked absolutely gorgeous. There was slight pixelation with explosion possibly none the less it was impressive but after like 2 minutes the Best Buy guy kicked us off. I was impressed but a little worried especially because I own a Xbox 360. I don't want the pixelation box 360. 

Gaming industry Worries

Gaming industry Worries

Microsoft is obviously not doing well. With the Xbox one struggling to compete with PlayStation 4 , it doesn’t help that Ryse Son of Rome , Dead Rising 3 and Titanfall are all coming to PC and it was recently announced  that Xbox One lost 400 million dollars. Plus with Nadella flip flopping every other week whether Xbox is important.

Sony’s PlayStation brand is doing very well but Sony as a whole is doing terrible, they have a 78% of going bankrupt in the next two years.

Nintendo lets be real the third party support is pathetic and sales are in huge slup ( with the Exception of a Mario Kart 8).it had a one year lead over it competitors and it was wasted with poor marketing and terrible sales.

Steam I feel that Steam is doing a fantastic job but early access and steam Greenlight is starting to degrade the overall quality of the games such as the stupid Rock Simulator or the half made games what developer have no attention of being completed. 

Origin its origin at least they trying.

This is where,I think gaming it could go now, tell what you guys think.
