Update

I've been kind of sick lately. Haven't been able to play as much. Plus the wife is tired of being a Halo widow.  I've been really pushing to get my last on-line achievement and I haven't had much luck. Low and behold I'm now a 34 in Lone Wolf and still don't have the laser achievement. Something I have noticed in Lone Wolf is that I have to keep to my style of play to do well. I started losing focus around 18 and caught myself rushing in rambo style and doing a terrible job at it. I'll tell you one thing is that if I have a BR I will do rather well. If not, I do rather poorly. If you are looking for some awesome tips go to Fetal Injuryis blog and that will be a great refresher/learning experience for you.

Have to keep it short because I'm still exhausted.

Broken Arm

Was looking forward to some COD 2 and Halo 3 last night until I got a call from school telling me that my daughter (9) broke her arm. So needless to say it was a long day yesterday. Everything is going well now and she is doing great. She broke her other arm about a year and a half ago on a tree swing and this time it was on the playground during PE.

H 3

Wow, I checked out the new vid doc on the marketplace for Halo 3 and I'm super excited to play. Won't be able to play until Oct 4th though. None the less, I'm really going to enjoy the new features and enhancements. Happy gaming to all who play it on release.

Practice games

What game do you use to practice with when you aren't able to get on-line? I use UC2: Liandri Conflict for reaction time and anticipation. I switch to GRAW 2 for the tactical side of playing. Nothing like being sneaky in GRAW 2 and now COD4 Beta.

I can't forget the upcoming Halo 3 release. Pretty stoked about playing it. Unfortunately, I'll be out of town on vacation for the first week of release.

Later and have a good weekend!

Out

I'll be off until next Wednesday or Thursday.

First of all we have 3 couples coming over to play cards and stuff. The wife won't let me kick them out at 9:00 like I had hoped, so I doubt I'll be able to play. She doesn't like me to talk about gaming to friends either. I guess it is the look of pure joy I get when I talk about knifing and killing people on-line. They just don't get it and I don't suppose our guests would like hanging around a person that has killed thousands of people on-line. Don't suppose they like to hear about T-bagging either. Nothing like mentioning humping a dead corps when you kill them. The great satisfaction of the hunt and kill that drives me to play as much as possible.

Saturday I'll be at the K-State game in Manhattan, KS. It will be fun but starts at 6:00. When I get back on Sunday, I'm off to Council Bluffs for a conference that will last until Wednesday. I'll bring the 360 but won't be able to get on-line. It will give me a chance to practice some things.

Later,
