Halo 3 ODST
Posted Tuesday, September 15, at 12:04 PM Microsoft's Gaming Division wouldn't be where it is today without a little game called Halo and the lead character, Master Chief. After 2 wildly successful sequels to the main Halo game ending with the events of Halo 3, Microsoft was faced with one of the best selling games of all time ending. What did they do? They made more games anyway...
Madden 2010 Has it really been a couple months since I last posted a Gaming Blog? Time flies when you're busy doing things other than writing blogs! In the 'break' from writing gaming blogs, I've managed to play about 5 new board games, lots of new card games, and a handful of new video games, so I'll try to start reviewing those in the coming weeks as well as other new games that are coming out...
Settlers of Catan - Part 2 So, last week I talked about an exciting board game called Settlers of Catan. I suggest reading 'Part 1' to get a general idea of what the game is before proceeding with this blog entry. Settlers of Catan has some great strategy involved that can change with every single game because the game board changes every time. ...
Settlers of Catan - Part 1 I said it was coming and I meant it. The review for the excellent board game, Settlers of Catan. This blog, I will go through the basics of the game without much detail. Catan is a board game designed by Klaus Tueber and distributed by Mayfair Games. ...
Guitar Hero - Metallica This Sunday marks the release of the newest and slightly changed format of the Guitar Hero Series. This time, the songs are all Metallica and there is no guitar. That's right, no guitar. Guitar Hero: Metallica marks a change in how Activision markets and expands its GH Universe. ...
DS WEEK - GTA Chinatown Wars and Pokemon Platinum The Nintendo DS has been around for a couple years now and has made a huge mark on the handheld gaming business. The system itself is the best selling game console in history and still growing, which means that more people out there own a DS than any other gaming system. ...
I LIED.... Last week, I said I was going to talk about the excellent board game Settlers of Catan. My every attention was focused on doing this, but as I was writing it, I decided it was best to start up a game and well, I stopped writing and never came back. Thus, I never did finish my grand review of Settlers of Catan...
Gaming - Halo Wars The Gaming Blog --- What can I say? I started out writing the Amazing Blog as something to bring a bit of different entertainment to the Gazette's website, however, I never really found time to search the internet for weird or amazing stories and the Amazing Blog died...
Guy Fawkes Night Today - November 5th is Guy Fawkes Night. Remember, remember the Fifth of November, The Gunpowder Treason and Plot, I can think of no reason Why the Gunpowder Treason Should ever be forgot. Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent To blow up the King and Parli'ment...
4 Rules of Strategic Trick or Treating So, it's been a long time since I did anything with the AMAZING Blog, but I managed to run across another blog called 1,000 Awesome Things and reminded me of the AMAZING Blog, so I decided to post one of the 1,000 Awesome Things and it's all about the candy extravaganza that is Halloween. Click the link to read the article and be sure to come back and let me know what you thought...
Usually I stick to weird news, free games, or other interesting stories, but today I must go a bit on the other side and ask the readers to help out. Early Sunday Morning at approximately 4 AM, someone broke into the retail store Game On in downtown McCook and made off with many Xbox 360 Games, an Xbox 360 Console, a PSP Handheld, and more. ...
Do you Believe? So - there is this new video/picture making the rounds that supposedly shows evidence of the existence of aliens. Being an open minded person, I enjoy reading the different things that come out about space invaders. This was a particularly good read as the video was originally shot in Nebraska and is now being used to help form a commission in the city of Denver, Colorado for the purpose of contacting and investigating extraterrestrials...
African Rock Python I was browsing the internet the other day and found an interesting story. I do not know how old the story is, but must be somewhat recent as I've seen it pop up on a couple of news sites lately. The story is about a farmer who noticed some of his sheep were missing. ...
Suburban Farming Came across a little video about Suburban farming and some people doing it in Colorado. Thought some of you might be interested in this. Click on the link to watch the video and then come back here and let us know what you thought! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJbqOqSdpx4...
My Second Life This particular blog posting has been in the works for over 3 weeks. Way before the Eagle story came to be, which was more of a place holder than an actual blog post, as I realized I had not got around to putting a blog together. It was not for a lack of trying. ...
The following story was submitted by reader Brad Booth. I found it interesting and decided to pass it on through the blog as an amazing story. I was only able to find a podcast about it, but maybe someone else can find more info on the story and post it in the comments. The email follows.....
More things to waste time with... So, last week I talked about KDice. I had a few people sign up and play. They enjoyed it and I encourage more people to try it out (www.kdice.com). This week, I'm going to turn you onto another free internet game called Maplestory. The game is extremely addictive and amazingly free. ...
Everybody likes wasting time... So... Welcome to the Amazing Blog! I will be using this place to inform you of all things amazing. From the extremely weird to the somewhat trivial. Since this is the very first entry, I will be doing two things to begin with. First of all, I announce the word of the day, well it may end up being the word of the week or month depending on how I feel, but at this very moment it will be called the word of the day. ...
