New Resident evil game is looking goooooooood

Recently capcom announced they were making a new Resident Evil game called: Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City. Alot of people were not fans of Resident Evil 5 for Xbox and PS3, but I really enjoyed it because when I play a game I look for things that haven't been done before and I felt there was no game like RE5 at that time, anyway on to Operation Raccoon City, here what I know of what's been said. 

The story is that you are a team of 4 special operatives working for Umbrella and you have been sent into Raccoon city to clean up any evidence that could trace the zombie outbreak back to the Umbrella Corperation.
The game is set in the timeline of Resdient Evil 2, and you will even have a chance to kill Leon Kennedy. The gameplay is set to be based on a SOCOM like system which finally means MOVING AND SHOOTING AT THE SAME TIME... I know right it is a big moment. One very important part of this game for me is 4 player co-op seeing as I usually game with 3 other friends.

Alot of people are saying this game will be bad but I'm staying positive, especially as the games that get more hype are now a days pretty rubbish.
Heres a trailer to tickle your tastebuds (I think that's how the saying goes)

Sniper phone

This post isn't about a phone that can kill from long distances but it can shoot....kind of. I read a post on a blogger forum about photograpgy in blogs, and seeing as I can't afford a big fancy DSLR camera I looked at using my phones camera, but the phone I use has a terrible camera. 

So I went on a rummage in my room and found a couple of other phones, first I found and tested a Sony erricson ELM which has a quite impressive 5.0mp camera on it, and I was about to be settled and happy using that to take photos but then out of the corner of my eye I saw my old Sony erricson K800i cybershot and blooming heck does this thing have a good camera while its only 3.2mp it completely destroys the ELM's camera I'm now looking at getting a memory card for it so I can upload my photos, one of which shows how good the zoom is. 
I haven't tested many camera phones but this one really is something special and I highly recommend it I would like to hear if anyone else knows of any good camera phones.

Need a nice RPG

I'm looking for a nice RPG to play, I've completed Mass effect 1 & 2 and not a fan of Dragon age, nor am I a fan on RPG's where you have to pay a subscription, although when I get a job I will likely get EVE, just wondering if anyone knows of a good RPG to play?

oOOoOOOo It's so pretty

It's no secret I love snipers and sniper rifles, and seeing as it is very unlikely I will ever own a real one I have been looking at other options the first option is an L96 airsoft rifle, which basicly means its a BB gun and can be used to play airsoft games kind of like paintball but with BB guns and I think that would be great fun. 

There it is, I think that looks amazing, and especially as I love the L96 sniper rifle its currently being used by the British army and it just performs brilliantly.

The second option is something a bit more serious, it's a proper air rifle that is alot more dangerous than a BB gun it would use metal pellets that can really hurt, but it would feel alot more realistic but all I would be able to do would take it to my friends house and he owns a huge field and shoot targets there or even rodents, even though I'm not really a big fan of killing animals who knows.
Both rifles are bolt action which is a huge plus as I love bolt action snipers, and strangely enough they both cost around the same amount of money, but I really don't know what one I would get, (of course I would need a job first to buy either but hey I can dream) 
Let me know what you think, or if you own an air rifle or a nice BB gun. I would love to get some feedback.

Marc Ecko's Getting Up 2?

I'm not sure how many people played the first Marc Ecko's getting up game but it was amazing. It came out in 2006 for PS2, XBOX and PC.

It's an adventure game that combines combat and stealth, but the main idea is graffiti, you are Trane and all you want to do is get your name up, but while you tagging and getting your name up you get involved in a whole conspiracy. Obviously the graphics aren't quite up to todays standard but still great to play, I have been playing it recently in fact :D
It's such a good game and there is nothing like it, all I want is for Atari to make another game either a sequel to the first or a remake it would be so good. You can read up about it on IGN here

Help a worthy cause.

As always its very unlikely this will be read but never the less I press on.

I am still without a job and boy to my friends love to remind me, "Get a job" "Why haven't you got a job yet" "What do you do all day" "Your so lazy" "Put your trousers back on", Ok that last one isn't relevant, but its really not that easy in todays climate whatever that means (I wasn't aware the weather affected such things)

I saw a perfect job for a Paintball Marshall but like most things that would be great for me it was just out of reach, the advert said I would require a car, *giant slap in the face*. I would take any job that is suitable for me or isn't too below me but ideally I would want more of a career than just a job, as I've said before I feel like I'm meant to do more than just be generic, I would love a career that is creative like photographer, games designer, or just something out of the ordinary like get paid to drive peoples cars across country for them while they take a train or a plane or whatever, or go on tour with an awesome band and be like a roadie.

Part of my problem is my own problem...........I want more for myself I don't want to have to just get through life, I want to enjoy getting through it doing something that is fun for me. But to do these things I need key pieces for instance for a photographer I need a decent SLR camera, to be a games designer I need....well for that one I need to be lucky to get a placement and in some cases a stupid university thing but to hell with that.

So I say to you (don't be silly no one is reading this) If you want to donate a SLR camera to me that would be lovely just comment below if you would like to.

Peace and chicken grease I'm off to keep looking for jobs despite what people say I do look and I do apply.
When I say I'm going to do something I do it.

Where has all the music gone?

Just a short post, it seems that no bands I like are producing new albums and its kind of sad to think about, especially when so many awful 25 year old teenagers (just think about it) can produce the same generic pop crap every day singing about love and how this person is the only one they want over and over and over again, with over use of the words, baby, ooooo, and yea. 


The only music channels I get on TV are like UK top 40, urban charts and others like that, the only one I like is Kerrang but unfortunatley I don't get that channel due to my TV package. But its just annoying that there is only one channel for my kind of music, I honestly HATE with a pure passion all the current pop music that is dominating the industry and making it hard for rock bands to succeed. ARRRRRRRG RAGE!

Damn I need a job

Like alot of people in the UK I am unemployed and currently looking for a job, I'm not overly qualified for anything, the only thing I am better at than anything else is computers, I can build them, repair them both hardware and software aspects, but that hasn't got me anywhere I recently looked at getting Microsoft Certified through the home learning college and that would cost me over £2000 which is a huge amount for someone without a job.

I would love a job in the computer games industry but it is ridiculously hard to get into and I just get shunted out of the way by Uni snobs. "Go to uni then you fool" I hear you say but I am not prepared to get in debt that much.
Of course I could get a terrible job at McDonalds or something of the like but I honestly can't bring myself to do it, it just feels so below me and I really dont want to do something that makes me miserable, "well a job is a job" again I hear you say but to me its not, if I have to do something to earn money I want it to be worthwhile and something that I enjoy.

Everyone wants to make something of themselves be known and famous and all that lark but so many just settle with normal lives and normal jobs, don't get me wrong if I got offered a local IT engineer job that was perfect for me I would take it in a flash, but I just think that so many with potential give up to easy, and maybe I'm the same I recently bought an electric bass guitar because I fancied learning how to play it and I know how it works and I can play a few tunes but for the time I've had it I should know so much more maybe even be in a little band that just plays or local gigs or pubs, I've not given up on playing it but I can't afford a tutor to learn how to play it due to lack of said job, I've tried using the internet to learn to how to play it and that has helped to a degree but now I feel like I need real human help.

I just don't understand how I cant get a job, I'm fairly smart with just above average grades yet complete idiots who I went to school with have landed their dream jobs and have gone all over the country, one who even works on an oil rig, I don't see how its fair.


I can't help but think I'm destined for something more.

Stupid people getting "just deserts" haha....no? nothing? owell

Following yesterdays post it would appear that there is some sense in this world, a court has removed the breast milk ice cream to make sure its safe, following complaints from the public but unfortunatley this doesnt mean that it will never go on sale again, they have just temporarily stopped the sale until they figure out what to do with the product, if they have any sense they will stop the sale of this product completely. Heres the kicker
Mr O'Connor, said: "We have had an amazing response - many women have come forward and offer to give us milk."You can buy alcohol and tobacco but not breast milk in Westminster.
"If Westminster bans this then I am going to begin a protest with mums who have already shown support."
This loon is comparing breast milk to alcohol and cigarettes, I don't smoke and I occasionally drink but these things have been deemed by society to be acceptable, but to say that breast milk - something that a baby should have to get the right nutrients to grow, could be good or ok for other people not from the same gene pool as the donor to consume is ridiculous, I dont care if it is actaully safe it's still disgusting, excuse my crudeness but if I suddenly say its ok to pick the sweetcorn out of my stool wash it down so its sterile and sell it in bulk does that doesnt mean that people should eat it. Just because its safe it doesnt make it not disgusting.
I can only hope they have the sense to make sure that breast milk ice cream never goes on sale again, if people want to do freaky stuff like that in their own home GOOD do it I dont care but dont try and rope the rest of us in on your odd fetishes.

Oh dear god, what is wrong with this world

So I wake up, its looking very dull outside but nether the less I put on a brave face :D, Jack Johnson starts playing on TV making the day instantly better but then the buzz kill of all buzz kills hits me in the face in the shape of a terrible news story on the BBC website, is it the riots around the world? No, is it the New Zealand disasters? No, is it something about how much debt we are all in? No.
It's this...brace yourself, "Breast milk ice cream goes on sale in Covent garden" I mean come on really? I can kind of expect this from a few other countries but good ol' London England. Surely this kind of thing is illegal, some will say its natural its organic and pure... yea thats true for the baby who SHOULD be drinking it. Not only is this very very wrong but its charged at £14 a serving and its called a "Baby Gaga". I can't help but try and think of a disgusting male equivalent but it would appear I can't. This just shows how low people will sink to make money. Its bad enough that it's happening but its worse that other are accepting it, when so many other harmless ideas have been shunned. The only people who are going to eat this "ice cream" are hippies and wierdos with fetishes. 
In a world like today I just don't see how this is acceptable, what next blood flavour strawberry sauce.
