Herd of Cats

Did we just spend $60 on a glorified expansion pack?
Angelina is sad: because of her glowing camouflage?Admittedly, I haven't played the single player campaign yet but it will have to be pretty good to make up for the deficiencies in the multi player.

I originally thought I was being too hard in my initial impressions but as I played it I became a little more disillusioned. Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed playing but:

It's a heck of a lot if your name is Tom Clancy!

Ubisoft bought Tom Clancy! Seriously, Tom Clancy sold his name to Ubisoft. Henceforth he shall be known as Bob. Bob the name whore. Bob the "I sold myself for millions, what are you worth?" Bob.

Four maps for $10. Arriving on April 3rd.

Full scoop at Shacknews.

...have been greatly exaggerated. Just in case you thought changing the decor back to normal meant I was gone... WRONG!

And to explain why, our good friends at Penny Arcade have written a strip about me...

No, not because they don't have Rainbow Six Vegas Two, and EB Games does – although thankfully I won't know that until tomorrow – this is far more sinister. I received the following email from them today:

Hi COXXORZ,
In this week's Insider View column, the date to buy "I Am Legend" for $19.99 was incorrectly marked as March 25. The correct date should have read MARCH 18 only. We apologize for this error.

Not only in the USA.

Our Canadian EBgames got it one day early and so did I!!!

Yes a deer in headlights: but a deer with his early copy of Vegas 2

Lady luck please let the barrels stay hot
Let me shoot a tango with every shot
Viva las vegas (2!), viva las vegas (2!),
Viva, viva las vegas (2!)

Tim Buckley over at Ctrl-Alt-Del writes this comic, "What happens in Vegas...,"
as if he knows us.

Apparently, it's our new thing:

Kind of... or it will eventually.

So the site is returned to normal (or as close a simulation of normal as it gets) after prolonged conversation between Coxxorz and I.

"you know you can put the site back to normal if you like."

"I figured you would get to it eventually."

"I was going to wait for you to do it."

"No, I was going to wait for you to do it."

Who fracked up my site?

I'm away for one week and look what happens!!! I was checking. For the first four days there was NOTHING! Two posts and one comment – about no news!!! I hated all of you (more) and was going to shut down the site.

But this! This is incomprehensible!! To let some no name Ratzorz hack our site and then do nothing! You call yourselves Herd of Cat members! (Well okay, kinda that works) At least one of your random motions should have accomplished something! Read more

Yes, it's finally here folks! Start harassing your local big box electronics store, EB Games, or video store for your copy! The official HoC gaming goodness starts Wednesday Night THURSDAY Night. That will give you AMERICAN cheaters a full day's TWO days head start on ranking up, assuming the game is released simultaneously eventually here in Canada on Tuesday Thursday.

The wise ones among us had the foresight to take advantage of another excellent promotion at Blockbuster video: trade 4 used games, get any new one FREE. If you play your cards correctly (and buy cheapass used games), this translates into a brand new game for as little as $40. The very wise among us even managed to convert that into a preorder of the aforementioned game. Although with their track record, it could be Thursday Sunday before I see my copy...

You know, the rat thing was entertaining, but I was thinking it might be nice to have our site back ...

From the marketing lingo:

"Introducing the new AirPort Express with 802.11n
Now featuring support for the faster 802.11n Wi-Fi specification, the new AirPort Express Base Station delivers up to five times the performance and twice the range of the previous model. The world's smallest 802.11n-based mobile base station, the new AirPort Express offers a great option for anyone who wants to set up a high-speed wireless network, share a printer wirelessly, or stream iTunes music wirelessly from a Mac or PC with AirTunes. And because its so compact, you can take AirPort Express with you and set up an ad hoc wireless network in your hotel room. Available immediately for Mac and Windows, AirPort Express sells for just $99.00."

No word on wether or not this model will come with a fire extinguisher. We recommend placing a plate under it to catch the melting plastic.

A Taiwanese man promised his father a stripper for his funeral if he lived past the age of 100.

Note to kids everywhere: we want them for our birthday, not our funeral. Otherwise, where's the incentive to keep living?

We would also accept them for camping trips (NSFW).
