Uncharted 2 Bitchheeezzzz

Did anyone here with a PlayStation 3 have the privilege of playing Uncharted?
Did anyone have the displeasure of having to sit through Indiana Jones: And the Crystal Skull?

If you answered yes to those questions you will know that Uncharted is EVERYTHING that Indiana Jones 4 should have been. It is also just another nail in the coffin for George Lucas' and Spielberg's conquest to sodomize and "revive"(whore out) our old beloved franchises.

For those who haven't had the pleasure of experiencing Uncharted for all it's brilliance let me tell you about it. It's Awesome. The action makes you feel as though you are seriously in an old school Indiana Jones/Die Hard 90's flick, the dialogue is super slick, and the voice acting is superb. The story is written like a blockbuster film, it is the true evolution of videogaming. Oh, and did I mention that the main character, Nathan Drake is FUCKING DOPE?!

Now, we got the sequel coming out soon. It would be hard to hold a candle to it's predecessor. However, the game comes out in about 10 days. And guess what? It's already getting amazing reviews. According to what I've read so far: It's got an amazing story, updated graphics, gameplay, AND a badass MULTIPLAYER THAT PLAYS JUST LIKE THE SINGLE PLAYER CAMPAIGN(ORGASM to the 5th degree).

So, go get Uncharted 2. Please. It will be amazing, if you don't believe me, look at its score on Metacritic. Lucas can take some tips from this game, though I hope he doesn't ever make another movie again. Ch-ch-cheeeeckkkk it Ouuuuuttt!!!!

P.S.
Peep the IGN Video Review

I hate being Politically Correct. That's why I love this movie

In light of 420 just passing i decided to write my next entry on a stoner flick: How High

First of let me start by saying I LOVE Method Man and Redman. They were basically my idols going through High School. Have you seen their movie How High though? How High is the most racist movie ever(That's why I love it) that absolutely no one got mad at. You know why? Because it stereotypes basically every sort of ethnicity. Every white person in the movie is portrayed as square (and pretty much a villain) until they seem to embrace the black person that is inside of them.

The only Asian in the movie is portrayed as a prodigy however, can barely speak proper English and has "2 inches of hard dick right now".

The Guy from India is also somehow Arabian as well.

Even though the principle (the villain) is black he acts completely white until Redman and Method Man lace his brownies with weed and then he proceeds to begin dancing like his name was James Brown.

Though Black is looked at as the 'Cool' in the movie, Redman and Method Man are portrayed as lazy stoners that basically cheat their way through College.

The Moral of How High - White = Bad. Black = Good.
The Lesson of How High - Smoking Weed Will Have go from White to Black. And getting your teachers high will allow you to stay in Harvard without doing any work. Awesome.

What should you NOT DO when you're exceptionally talented(D'angelo):

POSE NAKED AND ISOLATE YOUR MALE AUDIENCE.

I'm writing this blog out of frustration.

I was watching the video for Brown Sugar (Directed by Brett Ratner who did the Rush Hour movies) And I'm just in wow, the video is so well directed. And you look at D'angelo, you could tell that he's a cooooool ass motherfucker. Brown Sugar is the epitome of a timeless album from start to finish every track is a gem. I watch the videos from this album and I think to myself "Why in god's name would he try to switch up his image that worked so well for him"

Well then, a couple years later he drops Voodoo. Another classic album easily on the near perfect scale. With all the hype that surrounded this album I really DO NOT think he needed to pose naked. I mean, isn't that what your supposed to do when your sales goes DOWN?! By doing so, he totally isolated much of his male fanbase. Now when most man think about him after having his name brought up they think "Hey isn't that the guy that posed naked in his video and album cover, what a ________"(be creative)

What I'm trying to get at is that people cannot see past the idea that he posed naked, no matter how AMAZING his music is. You don't know how many times I've played some of his stuff, asked someone if they liked it and get positive responses and then when I tell them it's D'angelo the expression on their faces just change as if they accidently just admitted that they were gay. It's like AHA I GOT YOU! I GOT YOU!

The moral of the story is if you are a male, DO. NOT. POSE. NAKED.

Wow, it must be 1994 again or something. (Hadouken!)

So, when most kids were playing in the Sandbox I was on my cousins lap playing Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat. To put it in simply I've been a gamer ever since I was a little kid. Though I don't have much time for them these days videogames will always hold a heavy place in my heart. Anyways, Street Fighter II, which was the first one to really get all around critical acclaim and sell millions of copies, it was released in 1991. I was 2 years old (Wow!)

18 years later Capcom released the fourth installment for Street Fighter IV. To be honest I thought I could just walk into the store and purchase the game. However, I was unfortunately informed that the game was SOLD OUT. Not just at my local Electronics Boutique but at Best Buy and about a thousand other places. Seriously, I thought I was one of the only dorks that would rush in opening day to get the game.

Capcom's marketing strategy must have been pretty damn good for such an old franchise to sell so well to a whole new crowd. I know they did alot of things to reach out to a whole bunch of crowds. For example, breakbeat.co.uk gave out street fighter samples and told people to remix them into tracks as a promotion for the game. I heard 7-11 of all places were one of the stores distrubiting the game, so when old timers went to get their hot dogs they would see that a new Street Fighter game was out. I hear the new movie that was released about a week after the game released was pretty terrible, however, I guess it gave more exposure to the game.

I guess I really underestimated Capcom's marketing team when it came to this game but it's nice to know that the old school has not been forgotten. SHORYUUKEN!

Media that inspires.

So, for those who don't know me, I am training myself to become a professional DJ. Though I can basically spin any sort of music, my passion lies within the raw, grimey, hard stomping sounds of what they call Drum'n'Bass. The music apparently originated in Canada, however, starting picking up in London. Over here the biggest drum'n'bass events you'll find will only be parties thrown by BassRush which is a company owned by the same people as Insomiac.(The same people that throw EDC and Nocturnal Wonderland) These events only come to the U.S.A. only a couple times a year, however, they are extremly packed.

For those who don't know, Fabric(which was rated the number one club in the world) located in London throws what they call Playaz Night (Thrown by DJ Hype's Label True Playaz which is considered the top Drum'n'Bass label) every last Friday of the month. On my last trip to London I had the awsome experience of going to this event. AND THE VIBE WAS SO DAMN AMAZING/HEAVY. It was like a little kid going to Disneyland for the first time....just alot less innocent. Thousands of people just getting down to some hardcore D&B as normal as people get down to pop music, just a whole lot more excited. For those who love the music, it just has a way of seeping into your whole body. But seeing that inspired me, and made me realize that I have to bring this the United States, and not just to the underground but to the masses.

Anyways, I went on a mini tour with a couple of my buddies up the coast of CA.(I hit SB and SF). Hoping to spread the vibe of what they call the Junglist movement. When my set started people seemed to be digging it,however, after a little while most of the crowd lost interest. Huge bummer especially after driving that whole distance.

What makes drum'n'bass so much different, and in my opinion waaaaaaay cooler than any other genre of electronica is the incorperation of the emcees that spit over the tracks. All the material that they use is freestyled and done on the spot. A good emcee will not just add to the beat, but will be included in the transistions.

As if my aspirations to be the messenger that brings Drum and Bass as a DJ to the United States was a heavy task, I don't want to end there. I also want to get into the emcee aspect of it. Last Summer I went with a couple of my friends to Electric Daisy Carnival(which was one of the best D&B performances I've ever experienced) I took one of my friends to the front, and saw how the emcees were interacting with the crowd. Vibes just shooting off of them like a fucking geyser. I looked at my friend and said "See that, that's gonna be me in a couple years"

Well anyways, whenever I feel that I loose some passion for what I'm doing, or after some gigs that don't go to well and I have thoughts of giving it up, I always watch this video. At 26 seconds when the crowd just screams I tend to get chills up my spine and it reminds me why I'm working hard at doing what I'm doing. In other words it re-fills my passion tank. Anyways, for those who've never heard the music watch this absorb the vibe and enjoy.
