Reaching for Round 40 in the Giant

By Blackwalt - Posted on 06 December 2015

Last night Stormblade joined our two player attempt as the third player

It's only Round 4!It's only Round 4!

Apparently math is not his strong suit. It's hard to get to two player Round 40 when there are three of you. Still we could make a serious attempt at beating our Round 35 three player high.

If he could stay alive past Round 4!

Check out after the break to see how well Graybush did.

HoC Random Tie of the Day - 12062015

By Blackwalt - Posted on 06 December 2015

This occurred during our Round 38 run

So yesterday Graybush followed up our Round 38 achievement by sending me the above photo. Taken during Round 22 it shows us tied for head shots. At 202. This, of course, would have been at the point where he was passing me. The final count was 512-378.

Graybush leading in head shots isn't unusual in Zombie Mode. What was unusual was me leading in head shots up to the 202 mark. Even with me using a sniper rifle most of the round.

Zombies. The Giant. Two players. Round 38

By Blackwalt - Posted on 05 December 2015

A new HoC high for the Giant. With two players.

Now I am not stressing the two player because I feel that SeanMCR is holding us back in Zombie Mode. No, I stress the two player because it tones down the number of zombies in each round. Even into the late thirties we were misjudging the length of the rounds.

In fact, I would go so far as to say either Graybush or I could carry SeanMCR into the late thirties in two player zombies.

When we reached Round 35 I exclaimed the virtues of the Argus. No more.

Rock Zombie now available on Xbox Live

By Blackwalt - Posted on 04 December 2015

What would happen if a concert of a female rock band was invaded by a horde of zombies?

Another mediocre brawler would be released in the Xbox Store? Oh wait, was that rhetorical?

I kid. It's zombies! Unfortunately it doesn't mention anywhere if it is multiplayer or not. On sale for $6.39 (from $7.99) to Gold Members on initial release.

There is a trailer (Wii U version) available after the break.

Why do I feel this is EXACTLY how Coxxorz would play this game?

HoC Random Xbox One/Halo 5 Glitch of the Day - 12032015

By Blackwalt - Posted on 03 December 2015

I glad it's Ready to Start before it completely fills the hard drive

One of the Graybush Clan sent this in. With my math skills it took me a while to figure out what was wrong. I do wonder where he is going to fit all his Call of Duty stuff once Halo 5 claims the entire hard drive. Doesn't 343 Industries know you need to leave some room for DLC?

HoC Random Advent Calendar of the day - 12022015

By Blackwalt - Posted on 02 December 2015

We knew it would be hard to top last year's Minecraft papercraft calendar so we went a different direction

We filled envelopes and stuck them to the wall in a Christmas Tree shape. The envelopes are primarily filled with a Munchkins expansion deck but there are some additional surprises in the mix.

PS- we used supplies from Guba's scrapbooking warehouse to hand make the envelopes and numbers then used sticky tack to hang everything on the wall.

Zombies. The Giant. Round 35

By Blackwalt - Posted on 01 December 2015

New HoC high for "the Giant" zombies map

I was impressed by the previous Round 31. Last night SeanMCR and Graybush took me for a tour of "the Giant" to show me how it was done.

I know that Round 35 was impressive (for us) as my Xbox Live Activity Feed was inundated with screenshots just like the one above. Check after the break to see the screenshots as well as evidence that my Shotgun helped us get there.

Just Cause 3: Official Launch Trailer

By Blackwalt - Posted on 01 December 2015

Official yet fan made. Weird.



    The response to the Just Cause 3 Trailer Competition was overwhelming, with some 1200 entries showcasing the talent of our community. Choosing a winner was extremely hard, but the energy, humour and general quality of our chosen winner cemented him as the panel’s favourite.

Looking forward to picking this up. Eventually.

And not that this reflects badly on you guys or anything but the three games I have asked for at Christmas? All three are single player.

HoC Random Black Ops 3 Score of the Day - 11302015

By Blackwalt - Posted on 30 November 2015

To be fair, 19-14 with 20 confirms is pretty good for me

Then I noticed the score of the top guy on the winning team. Or should I just call him the winning team. Glad to see the networking code and game balancing of Black Ops 3 is working so well. I guess the "the quality and scope of your Internet Service Provider" is slightly in this guy's favour.

Spotted - fake Target Black Friday deals flyer

By Coxxorz - Posted on 28 November 2015

Imgur user obviousplant has posted photos of a fake Black Friday flyer in this store's display case. I'm still trying to get The Bay to match the free falcon offer.

More photos after the jump.

HoC Random Black Ops 3 Whiteout of the Day - 11272015

By Blackwalt - Posted on 27 November 2015

Is that a zombie or a polar bear in a snow storm?

It's a polar bear SeanMCR, nothing to worry about.

So last night playing "the Giant" in Black Ops 3 zombie mode we discovered yet another Black Ops 3 glitch: The White Screen of Zombie Death.

It got ugly. For SeanMCR. Everything was working fine for Graybush and I.

    "To your left SeanMCR!"

    "Your other left..."

When SeanMCR joined us in "the Giant" his screen loaded up white. He couldn't see anything else. He was in the game. He could move, shoot, jump, throw grenades. He just couldn't see anything other than white. Switching into the pause menu or dashboard worked fine. It was just in "the Giant."

And yes, there's video...
