Mini-Review: MineCraft

This fantastically simple game has left a resounding mark on how I experience games. It’s really a great little game. Right off the bat, I’ll give you a number, if your heart desires it: 9/10. Yes, Minecraft does have some haters, and it would be better if it weren’t a damn Java game… but you won’t see me complaining (until it crashes for the 20th time, that is). The premise is simple. You start with nothing to your name, spawning in the middle of a forest, on a mountain, on top of a cliff, or in any one of the vastly different biomes. You quickly set off to...

Quake Live TV to cover QuakeCon 2010

Hey guys, As some of you know, I’m the founder, webmaster, graphic designer, and guest shoutcaster over at QuakeLive.tv. Quake Live TV runs very much like a business, but we’re all volunteers and our costs are paid for by donations (thanks to an awesome, supportive community). So what is Quake Live TV? Well, it’s an organization that broadcasts live, competitive video game matches with some of the top professionals. While a lot of our coverage is of community-run events, a lot of our coverage is of the professionals competing in high-level tournaments. We’ve covered...

Battlefield 2 Action Movie "Escape from Mashtuur City" Remastered!

Posted by on May 1, 2010 in Computer, Featured Articles, Gaming, Movie, Projects | 0 comments

I remastered an old film I made back in 2006, and originally did a remix of it for 2007. In 2010, I decided to slightly up the visuals, introduce new special effects, add a proper intro and exit, as well as put the ratio to 16:9. Only small improvements, but realize the video was not HD, so I’m doing as best as I can. The film was created by a team of people (everyone is acting), and every person in the film I had to cast and direct. I acted as the director, sound designer, film editor, and essentially put the entire production together. Sadly, the ending nor beginning was every fully...

I’ve been going through a few different games lately, most of them are older games! However, all of them are pretty damn fun. KOTOR 2 I’m super excited to get my hands on this one, because I’ve been wanting to try out the Restoration Mod for ages. Now I get to! I’m installing it right now, actually. Woo!

Headset Broke = :(

Posted by on Sep 6, 2009 in Computer, Personal, Random | 0 comments

Well, I’ve been having trouble with my headset, the famous SteelSeries 5H v2, for awhile. It’s a great piece of equipment, mind you, but it broke about three months ago. I’ve kept soldering and gluing it back together (I really love this headset!). But it’s broke again (for the fourth time!) and I don’t have any soldering here at school. So I’ve got no means to fix it anymore… which means I’m without my favorite headset. I’ve considered buying a replacement for it. As I mentioned, it’s a fantastic headset. It featured superb sound...
