Dedicated Servers

I'm not big on bitching about games, but seriously what the fuck is going on with the servers on COD. It wouldn't bother me if the matchmaking program actually chose the best host, but it doesn't. And being the host you get such a big advantage, it just needs to stop. I realize that there are upwards of 300,000 people online playing Black Ops at any givin time, but it needs to happen. I"m so sick of the lag and bullshit hit detection being the reason I have a bad game. I'm not a great player at this game by any means, but I do know when I put enough bullets in someone to kill them and I know when I died in a fair fashion. MW3 Is on its way and I really think that this should be something that should be put into place by the time that it hits shelves. And something that should be put into place for every game on xbox live in the near future. I pay 50 bucks a year, millions of other  people pay 50 bucks a year for what is supposed to be the best online experience in gaming. So I don't see why dedicated servers aren't mandatory like they should be. If you disagree or have something to add please do. Thanks again for reading everyone.

Ascension

The First Strike map pack that was released on the 1st of this month on the 360 included a a new Zombies map called Ascension. I have finally played through it enough times to write a comprehensive review. I have never really been a big Zombies player mainly due to the fact that i just seems like all you do is scramble for ammo or sit in a corner and wait for hoards of zombies to run at you by the hundreds. Though that can be amusing, to me it just gets boring to fast. But this new map found ways to fix that, they made it cost less to open doors and thus easier to move more freely while not just holdong up in a corner. There are lots of cool traps that do not cost very much to use, and those two things just make it easier get get tons of pulls out of the mystery box and allowing you to go further into the game.

They also replaced the zombie dogs that came like every 5 levels with monkeys. I don't know if the monkeys were supposed to be more difficult to kill or not, but they aren't. I would actually just rather keep the dogs because I think that they look cooler. I actually like this map a lot and it honestly could have been 10 bucks by itself  and I probably would have bought if after I saw its awesomeness. Its really too bad that PC, PS3 users have to wait so long for something that I have enjoyed for almost a month now. I really think Sony needs to make a push to have more exclusive content because the PS3 has become a 3rd rate system. Which is a huge fall from basically running the market for the 15 previous years before the 360 hit the market. But instead I play on a lower quality system because gaming content is what I want. I want to be able to download content before anyone else and I want to play the games that are exclusive to Xbox. There are a few games that I've had to miss out on but all in all its not enough to make me spend 300 dollars on a system for 4 games. Sorry this turned into a half ass rant about how pissed off I am at Sony for handing the gaming market that it ran for 15 years over to Mircosoft with barely even a fight. But its something that bothers me, I didn't want to turn my back on Sony, but they didn't give me enough reasons to stay and have shown no effort for me to change my mind.

Xbox Ahoy!

This guy really knows how to give great advice and his production work is rather outstanding. I watch the Black Ops weapon guide every week and really look forward to it. I really wish I could afford the equipment to do commentaries but until then I have my blog and I'll just have to post helpful videos that I find. I really hope that you enjoy him as much as I do!http://www.youtube.com/user/XboxAhoy?blend=1&ob=5

MY BAD, LOL!

Today I had the most fun I ever had playing online games. My friends and I have been playing since early this morning and it has been a blast. We went on a 24 game win streak until some of my other friends joined in on the other team and ruined it :(. But then we they joined up with us we then went on another 20 game win streak. Playing domination with at team that has 4 or more player going 30+ kills and -10 deaths is just hilarious, we even had a girlfriend of mine playing and we would set her up in a good camping spot with claymores everywhere around her. Shes new to the game and we wanted her to be able to get the hang of it.  So I guess it just been the mood I was in yesterday or my friends just made the game, I think think a little of both actually. But I really hope you guys are taking advantage of double xp weekend. Because it really does make all the difference, if you' re looking to get to prestige 15. My best estimate is that it takes me about 17 hrs of game play to prestige, and I have prestiged twice this weekend. It ends Monday night so you still have time!
