Halo 3 Legendary Edition

I have been looking and looking high and low for a Halo 3 Legendary Edition. After several months of non stop searching I finally found one a few weeks back and the price was too good to pass up. See I get on Ebay like a million times a day and it still takes a long time to find a mint condition product that you want that has been used and is at a good price. So when I finally found it I waited a few days until the time for the auction was up and the bid wars started. After all was said and done I won the auction and I was just so happy! Well it has finally came in and it is just marvelous. It is in mint condition and one of the game cases wasn't even opened! So now I finally have the Master Chief Helmet display that sits out for all to see and I couldn't be any happier about it.

Minecraft Xbox: New Candy Texture Pack

Just last week a new texture pack for the Minecraft Xbox Edition came out and it is just really awesome! It was the Candy Texture Pack and it just looks crazy. Not only is the grass made out of cake, but the zombies are gingerbread cookies! Now just how crazy is that? I really didn't know that this pack was coming out so i'm kinda surprised and happy at the same time. Will I use it? Well I am more of a modern builder so it would be kinda of difficult for me to try to implement it, but I will for sure create a world just for the candy texture pack. So overall I know it is really kinda of a weird and funny pack, but I still love it because it just shows how creative the developers for Minecraft are.

Best Comp 1 Paper?

We have written several papers in the comp 1 english class and have liked doing it. There are several to choose from and it's difficult to say which one I liked best. If I had to choose one it would probably be the comparison essay. The main reason I chose this one is because I got to talk about the two biggest gaming consoles on the market today. Also I got to talk about the details about each one and compare the two. Also I liked being able to try to persuade people to leans towards the Xbox One. So there are several reasons why I chose this essay over the others, but it's those two main reasons why I did. So overall I think the paper came out ok, but I think I could have done better.

Is It Art?

What is my personal definition of art? Well my personal definition of art is quite varuious becuase of the wider variety of art that is possible and even then new that can be created. I think that are is something new and original that has been created. Also it could be something that has been changed or altered in some way shape or form. So are there things that I dont think is considered art? Well honestly I don't think there is anything that can be considered not art because everything is art. If you just look at the world around you and think about it, it can be quite astonishing really. Because if you think about it everything around us has been created or designed at some point in time by somebody or something. So is it all art? Well overall I believe that everything around us can be considered art, but some just don't have the eye to see it.

Old Object New Generation

There are many objects that I own that come from my past. If I had to choose one though it would be my original first model Xbox. It has been with me for many many years and I just love having it in my collection. Nowadays with a newer generation I think that people are appreciating the first models of not only the Xbox, but other things as well. I think that people of the new gaming generation is being even more interested in it because of the value withing the age. Also many collectors are getting more interested because of the age. The reason I believe most new generation gamers are getting interested is because of games that they have never got to play and are really wanting to play. So overall I believe that the original Xbox has a really good connection with the new generation gamers.

Movie Remake

There have been many movies from the past that have been remade numerous of times. One of which is the the move "The Planet of the Apes". I believe that the older version was better for several reasons. The first reason is because I thought it was overall more entertaining. Also because it was something new and when they brought it back it just didn't hit the spot like it did in the past. Now I do believe that just because it has been remade and maybe wasn't as good I still think that it has a chance. If they were to really base a new one off the older one I believe it could really be a hit. Will they though? If they do it will probably be several years because there just really isn't a big enough audience for it. So overall I believe  that it could be a good comeback, but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't come back

Best Friends!

I think that everyone has at least one person that they can call their best friend and sometimes even more. I am lucky enough to call two people my best friends and I couldn't be happier. My two best friends are Jenny and Kenzie and they are the nicest and most fun people that I have ever met. Even though this year we haven't able to spend a lot of time together because it is our senior year and there is just a lot of stuff going on. When we do get to hang out we do some of the funnest things ever and really enjoy it. Because of them I have made some of the best memories that I have ever made and I will always remember them. Even though we don't get to hang out as much I still look forward to the times that we do cause I just have so much fun. Even if we don't have anything planned we get to just "hang out" and that is fun enough for me. So even though it may just be one or more, having a best friend can really be one of the best thing in the world.

Call of Duty vs Minecraft

Everyday I face a constant decision and it is really driving me crazy! There are two things that I just absolutely love in the world and they are Call of Duty and Minecraft. See I am highest prestige in every Call of Duty and was #10 on the kill confirmed leaderboards and I just can't stop playing. On the other hand I have one of the most downloaded modern cities on Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition. See I want to play Minecraft, but when I do I feel like I should be playing Call of Duty. When I'm playing Call of Duty I feel like I should be building on Minecraft. So when it comes down to it I just end up playing Call of Duty because a new one comes out in November.

Actor Opinion

There are many great actors in the world and many to choose from. If I had to choose one though it would probably be Johnny Depp. The reason I chose him is because he is in many great movies and does absolutely marvelous. One of my favorites is Charlie in the Chocolate Factory because he had such a weird role and did it well. The main movie series that I like is the Pirates of the Carribean which at first I thought he wasn't going to do that well, but after the first movie came out I was amazed. So overtime I think that he has only gotten better at what he does. Also being able to play so many different roles and still be good is just awesome. As time moves along though I think that there will be even more movies that he will star in and will be the perfect canidate. Maybe even another pirate movie! So I think at first we may not like an actor, but with time we will begin to appreciate their skill.

Peer Review Comments

I think that the comments we receive are a very good thing. They are very helpful because they help you notice things that you didn't. Also they let other people show what they think about your essay. At some points the comments can make you think that they are wrong, but you have to remember that a lot of it is opinion. Then when people do comment it helps you compare other peoples thoughts about the essay. I think that receiving comments rather than not is better because it is helpful in the long run. what kind of comments are there? There are good comments which people like the most. There is bad comments which turn out to be the overall most helpful. So overall commenting on other essays really help the writer with it.

What Have I Been Playing Lately?

I have been gaming my head off since the new year with all the new releases, but they are starting to slow down. After finishing all the releases for the Xbox One I have started playing Call of Duty Ghosts again. Also I have been getting into the Fallout series again even though I have done pretty much all you can do on the console version. Also there are a few DLCs on the market at the moment that I would like to get my hands on. Some of them are for DR3 and some are for ACBF so i'm not sure which ones I will get first. Also I am really looking forward to the Watch Dogs release in May of this year. I am having to set back a 150$ for the collectors edition of Watch Dogs, but I think it will be worth it. So today I am play COD Ghosts, but I think I might go play some MW3 or even some MW2. Also maybe even some Fallout to :). So what are you most looking forward to playing today?

Xbox One Will It Get Better?

Someone told me that they thought the Xbox was losing the system war and it made me think a bit. First off lets look at both systems for what they have. Both the PS4 and Xbox One have the same processing which allows them to play games at the same FPS rate. They both use blue ray CD discs. The only difference between the two is that the PS4 home screen plays at a 1080p while the Xbox One at 720p. So is one better then then other? I really don't think so. Whether your a Playstation fan or a Xbox fan I believe they are both great choices. I think they both provide the consumer with about the equal amount of happiness. So to me it's at the point where whichever console series you have been with is probably then one you should go with, but overall I think everyone should have both at some point.

Qualities I Hope For

Qualities of a person can change greatly depending on the occupation and the degree of the position in the occupation. Also I think it is good to want to look for qualities because it helps you make decisions on people that you participate with. Now I know we are all different when it comes to make judgments and there are none that are quite the same. For my taste in qualities I am really kind of picky. Probably the one that I am most picky for is the occupation of a doctor. The reason for this is because that doctors are one of the most important jobs in the world today. Also doctors take many lives of people each and every single day. Also doctors go through so much to be in the position that they are in today. Also it is one of the most stressful jobs out there. So overall whether it's a doctor or a teacher it is always good to look for the qualities in them.

Noticeable in Peer Reviews

We all have different writing styles and different ways at looking at them. So even if it seems that you are writing the same as someone else there is always something that makes yours different. You may even notice something that makes yours better or worse then the others. Overtime I have noticed that other people's papers were just a little noticeably different then mine. One main thing that I have noticed is how far away the subject was of theirs compared to mine. See I wrote mostly about Xbox or video games and I don't think there was one other one that had to do with specifically electronics. Also I have noticed is that I think that people can stay on topic more then I can. The reason that I say this is because that when I write about something that I know a lot about I can't help but to get side tracked a lot of the time. Also I don't think these are bad thing, but more of a good thing to help vary the different types of writing. So whether it's a good or bad thing there is always something special about every paper that we write.

Unclear Instructions

Have you every been given instructions that have been unclear or hard to understand? I'm sure that everyone has at some point and it can really be annoying when it happens. One experience of this that has happened to me is when someone tried to explain to me how to install a software program on to my computer. At first I thought that they were providing liable information. As time moved on though, I started to realize that the instructions they were telling me was a little off. I really noticed it when I started to get error message all of the place and that was not supposed to happen. I even tried to have the reexplain it to me, but the same thing happened. I know that sometimes it is hard to provide information so somebody, but at least try to have some sort of preparation before so. Also having some experience in the program would help as well. So whether your helping someone with software or some other thing just remember that it is worth the effort to provide liable instructions.

My Last Learned Process

We learn thing everyday and some we may not even notice. Whether it's from reading or from reading we are constantly learning. If I had to thing of the latest thing that I have learned it would be what it took to make the latest game I am looking forward to called Thief. Getting to learn how a company spends years developing such a beautiful game is just amazing. From the first thought of it all they way to the end title is just an awesome process. Not only did it take years, but it also took thousands of people to work on it. Now I don't know about you, but having that many people work on a game is just breath taking. Getting to learn how it moved from the artists to animaters and all the way to the programmers is just so great. I just can't wait to play it so see how the process turned out. So if you every have a chance please look up the process for video game development because it is just one of the most amazing things of the era.

My Best Skill

Everyone has a skill and they can be in any shape or form. A lot of people say that they don't, but I think the everyone has that one activity or skill that makes them special. Out of all the things that it could be I believe mine is at playing video games. I know that it sounds very lame and not very special, but it is very special to me. I play games both competitively and for fun. Example of what I play competitively is Call of Duty in which I try to be as high on the leaderboards as possible. An example of what i play for fun is the Fallout series because it is almost my favorite series of all time. Also playing games is just what I have always been good at and what I want to continue in the future. Whether it's Xbox or Playstation I love to play anything. So whether it's playing video games or even skydiving I believe that everyone has that one thing that they that makes them special.

My Favorite FPS

There are many types of FPS games on the market and more being made everyday. If I had to choose my favorite FPS series it would be the Call of Duty series. The reason I chose this series is because I have a huge part of my life dedicated to them and have been competitively ranked on multiple. On Call of Duty Black Ops I was ranked #2 at 1v1ing and played in a summer tournament. On Call of Duty Ghosts I have reached my highest leaderboard rank that I have ever done. On Ghosts I have hit #10 on the Kill Confirmed leaderboards and it was very exciting. Also I am highest prestige on every Call of Duty and it is kinda of a reputation that I have. I would like to play in a state or national tournament, but I don't think I will ever have the chance. Maybe one day I will be able to show the world the skills and be able to be in a world known tournament. So if you ever feel like playing some Call of Duty feel free to message me and prepare to grind!

My Favorite RPG

There are many types of RPG games out there to choose from, and can be a very hard decision. If I had to choose one it would be the Fallout Series. The Fallout series is my favorite because it is based off a post apocalypse scenario. There are sever titles in the series, but my favorites is Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas. Fallout 3 takes place in Washington D.C. and the surrounding area. Fallout New Vegas is set in the Mojave Desert with a Las Vegas twist in it. I choose both because I have just as much fun on either one that I play. They are based off a nuclear war that happened in the year 2077. The weird thing is that the war only
lasted 42 minutes. So if you haven't ever tried any of the Fallout titles you really should because you wont regret it.

What Do We Gain From Exchanging Information

Stories and information have been shared since the beginning of time. The sharing of stories can really help people and their ambition to do things. Stories can also be used to entertain people as well. Information is probably the most valuable because it is how we can evolve our technology and our civilization. Information is valuable because it allows people to share useful wording between one another. If it wasn't for the sharing of information then we probably wouldn't be where we are today. Not only for information, but the sharing of stories as well. So whichever one you choose to share it is most likely to be in some form of value. Also we should continue to do this so we can keep advancing as a civilization. So next time you feel like sharing a story or information don't be afraid to because it could really help the future.

Most Important Part of a Narrative

There are many things that make a good narrative. Some may think that one part is more important then others, but to me the mos important part is whether the story stays on topic all the way through. The reason I choose this part is because I think that it is very annoying when people track off of subject when writing. I know that most of us do it at some point or another, but in order to have a really well done narrative it has to stay on subject really well. Staying on subject can really keep the reader intrigued and want to keep reading. When the writing tracks off from the subject it can really confuse the reader and cause them not to want to read it. So when writing a narrative remember that it is essential to stay on subject and to also include details without tracking off. If the subject is lost then it can really effect the entire writing. If it is lost it make a good narrative seem like it was not well done. Also it needs to stay on subject because it really keeps the narrative together as a whole. So out of all parts of a narrative I really think staying on subject is probably the most vital part of it.

Emotional Event

Everyone has events that happen to them and some can be really emotional and some can be just a little emotional. If I had to pick a recent even that has had an emotional impact it would have to be the announcement of the Xbox One. The announcement of the Xbox One Brought great happiness to me because a next generation console was coming. We haven't had a new console in the Xbox series since 2006 when the Xbox 360 came out. When I first saw that reveal of the Xbox One I had to tell everybody that I could to try to share the joy. Also by telling people it helped me share information about it whether it was good or bad. After I calmed down a bit after finding out about it I did as much research as i could. I did as much research as I could until I felt as if there was no more information about it until they released it later. I just couldn't keep in all the joy that the reveal brought me, I just had to let people know. So overall the even really impacted me emotionally because of how much joy that it had brought me.

A Place That I Know Well

If I had to pick a place that I know very well it would have to be Game Stop. The reason that I pick this place is because it is like a heaven for what I love to do more than anything. They have games that many other places don't have such as the older games. They also have many deals that others stores don't offer for games upon their release. The only downside that they have is the amount of money that you receive when you take a game there to trade in for money. I believe that many games that you don't get much money for deserve more money than they get. So overall Game Stop is an amazing store especially for the hardcore gamer and even for the regular modern gamer. Whether it's the deals or the trade in options there is many good things at Game Stop. There are some Game Stops that seem better then others, but that is normal for many stores. So if you have never visited a Game Stop I highly recommend it because you will just love it, even if you just play games every now and then.

My Favorite Music

Do you have a favorite music genre? I'm sure you do, cause I'm sure that everybody does. My favorite genre of music is called Dubstep and it is just amazing. I know a lot of people may think that it is really not good and many don't even like it at all, but I just love it. There are so many different types of Dubstep styles that you can just keep finding new stuff everyday. There are several main different types of Dubstep that are really know and that is: Dubstep, Drumstep, and Bass and Drums. These can be seen pretty much wherever Dubstep is. Even though many people think they all sound the same, they all have a great difference between them. Some are focused more on the bass and some are focused on things like the wobble. So if you have never listened to Dubsted before I highly recommend it because you never know, you may actually just love it.

My Favorite Thing

Everybody has a hobby or has something that they like to do more then anything else. Whether it's going camping or watching TV, everybody has that one thing that really makes them happy. Out of everything it could be my favorite thing in the world is video games. Whether it's Fallout or Batman I love playing anything and everything. My favorite console family is the one and only Xbox. I have every version of Xbox all the way from the original Xbox to the Xbox One. My favorite game series is the Fallout series and my most competitive is the Call of Duty series. Currently I have been in the top 10 in the world for my favorite game mode in Call of Duty and still playing everyday. I am a competitive player and a quickscoper/trickshotter and I upload all my best content to my youtube channel. Also not only am I a hardcore player I am also on the path to be become a video game developer, so maybe one day my name will be on the next big game. So that is not a lot of info, but I hope it's enough to understand my favorite thing in the entire world. I hope to see you all on the Xbox One!

My Favorite Narrative

Do I have a favorite Narrative? Actually I do and I think it is and awesome story line. My favorite is the Halo series made by 343 Studio. The story is based in the quite distant future (around the 2443 time era) and has many many types of characters. The main character is named John, but is commonly known as Master Chief. The story starts off by the Covenant (aliens from another planet) attacking one of Earth's owned planets and start trying to take it over. The reason they do this is because Earth owns the most destructive device in the entire world. It seems that all hope is lost, but not while Master Chief has anything to do with it. So as bad as things seem at the beginning Master Chief is always there to protect human kind. Master Chief does have one benefit though, and that is Cortana. Cortana is a computer based device that can hologram herself in order to be seen and helps Master Chief with any "technical difficulties" they may have. So overall Halo is one of the best series that I have every know and believe that it will continue to grow and even get better.

Important Photograph

Not everybody may not admit it, but i'm almost certain that everyone has at least one photograph that is important to them. Whether the photo is of a family member or ever a object of value, every single one is bound to be different. So what is my favorite photograph? Well lets just say that it has to do with my favorite thing to do in the entire world. The photo is of my collection of video game collectibles. The reason that this photo is so important to me is because it shows not only the value of the collectibles, but also how well they are designed overall. Also it is very important to me because it shows a sort of timeline of the games that i have been through over the years and it is just really neat. So I know there is supposed to be only one photograph that means the most to you, but I honestly believe that I must have two because I think it is a important part to the timeline. The photo is of my two best friends in the entire universe and it not only represents some of the timeline, but also a lot more. These two photos even though seperate really do add up into one photo overall. They really do show most of the important parts in my life.
