Modern Warfare 2?

Why yes I bought the much anticipated sequel to Call of Duty Modern Warfare. And yes I already spent my entire weekend playing it! In my opinion, the game is really good. It's a well deserved sequel, providing an amazing gaming experience. Online multi-player mode is one of the best that you can have out there. I have it for the 360, so playing it on live is fantastic! I've also had plenty of time playing it for the ps3 last week and have to say the online multi-player and co-op special ops game is pretty amazing as well. The story mode on the game is also pretty interesting to say, so you don't feel like all you are really doing is shooting those shooting at you. You feel more of the game play and the story. I am still nowhere near completing campaign mode, instead I have been playing special ops with random people online and also with my friends. There is no better way to play FPS' than with your best friends or other people online. As long as you are not playing by yourself. For the PC however, MW2 is best played through LAN seeing as there are no dedicated servers as there are for the ps3 and the 360. So, in the end I give Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 a 5/5 stars when played on consoles, and 3/5 when played on the PC for lack of server stability for online multi-player gaming.

Update on Google Wave

Okay guys, so Google Wave. Lets discuss. Google Wave is as said by Google "email made in the 21st century". I enjoy it. I love using it. It's a great way to collaborate about anything with anyone connected with Google Wave. Well, at the moment Google Wave is in private beta, and mainly the people who have Google Wave accounts are tech enthusiasts or someone in that general field. Basically what I am trying to say is that mostly it has smart people with similar interests. The general public does not have access to it yet, therefore spammers and trollers don't have access to mess it up right now. Now, that aside i'll tell you some of my experiences of using Google Wave.

When I first used Wave, I searched for a public wave that was discussing the tv show Heroes. We literally spent the whole episode with out side commentary. We asked questions about the show, answered each others questions, made predictions about the episode. We did it all. And it pretty much reminded me as if we were talking in a forums about the show. Only we did it in real time. We made a new wave for the next episode and low and behold when the next episode came out we all discussed there again. Already I liked Wave. Next I used Wave to find other people who use the Steam game client for PC games. I found a whole list of waves but found one where everyone was sharing Steam ID's. Let's just say I have a whole new list of friends on Steam to play games with. I've used Wave to talk to classmates about project assignments, sharing images across multiple computers, threading whole conversations and sharing it with others, even comparing school schedules.

I used Wave most recently to set up dates with my friends who are coming back for thanksgiving vacation from college. We set up what we are going to do, what places, shared links to things happening that day, and even added other people to the wave that we knew who we thought would be interesting if they came along.

Google Wave is going to be a sure big hit when it finally opens to the public. My only concerns is how spammers will attack it, and also how it would be once its flooded by other users. Only time will tell but I know this, I love Google Wave and how easy it makes communicating. Have I mentioned that Google is actually listening to the developers? We wanted an easier way to view public waves without being placed in it automatically, and look at what they did, they added a follow/unfollow button. Thanks Google!

Sorry!! :[

I know i've been negectful, and I know that since getting Google Wave I haven't posted anything new, but in my defense, I finished installing Borderlands and have been hooked for a few days :] So I WILL be updating, with news about Google Wave as soon as I can, tomorrow morning I have Economics so I should do a quick review then :] It seems I do most of my blogging during my economics class, but I can't help it if it's boring.

Guess who JUST got an account? :D

The buffalo is out of the pen

New social networking site geared towards tech enthusiasts has been finally released from the private beta today November 2, 2009. Techno Buffalo is founded by John Rettinger, a well known tech enthusiast who has been doing reviews on gadgets and other things electronic for years. His previous website jon4lakers.com, is now down because Jon is focusing on his new website technobuffalo. The site gears itself on allowing users to create their own tech blogs, and be able to monetize from it. It allows users also to set up public profiles and meet other people who are tech enthusiasts just like them. It seems that it is a bit similar to Chris Pirillo's geeks.pirillo.com, but something tells me its going to be alot different. Im actually thinking of moving my blog from here to technobuffalo, but we will see how that works out. I really want to get a bigger audience, and maybe by moving to a site geared towards tech enthusiasts I will get the feedback that i need. Well we'll find out eventually how technobuffalo will go after its first FULL day of release. Last time it was released, it was shut down after 3 hours due to heavy traffic (which is a good thing). If you want, you should check out the website, create accounts, and start reading the blogs. Its a good place for information about all the latest in tech news.
