MW2 Still Broke

Filed under: Video Games — Scott King at 3:49 pm on Monday, February 15, 2010


They updated “Modern Warefare 2″ last week to fix the glitches and hackers already have work arounds. As a result I’ve decided I’m done with the game. Its become unplayable.

“Modern Warfare 2″ Infinite Airdrop Glitch

There is now a glitch in “MW2″ that allows players to drop an infinite number of care packages. So once again the game has become unplayable. What the hell? First it was the javelin glitch, then private matches, then infinite ammo, then super speed and now this? Basically the game hasn’t been playable for months and it’s seriously frustrating. It’s gotten so bad that I don’t even play anymore because it’s impossible to get into normal glitch-free games.

The local  TV station that covered the story is so ghetto that it won’t let me embed their coverage of the story, but if you’re a gamer you need to watch it here. I particularly like the Dad who’s trying to come off upset, but at the same time is clearly stiffing a laugh.

Through a series of experiments, a girl tests what kinds of abuse NES cartridges can take. It’s 7 minutes, but interesting, plus the overall quality is decent.

The Worst of 2009

Filed under: Books, Movies, TV, Technology, Video Games — Scott King at 10:48 pm on Wednesday, December 30, 2009

worst2009
I’m not mean enough to do a list for every medium, but these various things were the worst of the worst in 2009.

  • Avatar - If I didn’t know better I’d say the dialog was stolen straight from bad 80’s cartoons.
  • Project Runway - The move to Lifetime and L.A. was not a good one. Calling this past season a “hot mess” would be putting it too nice.
  • The Ugly Truth - I love romantic comedies but this crapfest gives all romantic comedies a bad name.
  • NBC – Sure they have a few watchable shows, but on a whole the ship has sunk. When The CW and cable networks have higher ratings you know something is wrong.
  • 3D Movies – I saw eight movies in 2009 in 3D and they weren’t worth it. The whole process is still too gimmicky. Talk to me again when 3D moves the medium forward.
  • Halo ODST – I was super hyped for the game, but calling it a game is wrong. It turned out to be nothing more than a badly marketed expansion who’s gameplay was nothing new or fun.
  • Grey’s Anatomy – My the mighty have fallen. If it wasn’t for fast forward I wouldn’t have been able to make it through the episodes that aired this fall.
  • Opinions of Obama - Everyone has an opinion on Obama and I’m sick of hearing it. I’ve heard him been called Jesus incarnate and I’ve heard him refered to as the anti-christ and you know? I don’t care. The only time I have an opinion on Obama is when he interrupts prime-time TV.
  • Jon and Kate – Why did they ever have a TV show? Why did they become so big? She’s a bitch, he’s stupid, and now the kids are f* up.

Game Breaking “Assassin’s Creed 2″ Glitch

Filed under: Video Games — Scott King at 12:01 am on Tuesday, December 8, 2009


WHAT THE HELL! I gave “Assassin’s Creed” a decent review, but I’m taking it back. Sixteen hours into the game I stumbled upon a game breaking glitch. Yesterday, after completing memory sync 11, it did it’s auto-save thing and I turned off my Xbox.

I turned it on today and it re-loaded memory syc 11, even though I had beaten it. Then because it technically was beaten it wouldn’t let me move forward since the memory was completed. The glitch is wide spread so if you already have the game make sure you that after memory sync 11 you play another mission or you may be stuck.

Side note: FUCK YOU UBISOFT! If my copy of the game hadn’t been a free review copy I’d be making some angry phone calls.

Javelin Glitch in MW2

After going days without playing “Modern Warfare 2″ (because internet was out) I was shocked when I kept getting charged by people with Javelins. Turns out it’s a glitch and Microsoft isn’t being quiet about it. They are banning people for 24hrs to 2 weeks for using it! On the flip side Sony doesn’t give a rats ass so if you play the PS3 version of the game sucks for you!
