My Business Card

  As the title says, I got myself a business card. Well not really for business, just for fun. I got 10 of these from Moo.com sample business cards. I made the picture using Paint. On the back of the card has my basic info. Unfortunately, the cards come with the companies' watermark unless you actually purchase them, which I will never buy. You have to make an account first though. Anyways, just wanted to share.

Trailer For Pokémon Apokélypse: Live Action

  While browsing Youtube videos, I stumbled upon a very interesting trailer. As the title says, it's a trailer for a Pokemon live action movie. Unfortunately, having read the article given in the description, I realized it was merely a fan-made trailer. I was utterly surprised by the amount of effort and time put into that trailer, and would not have been shocked it was actually going to be released. Skimming through the comments, I found a lot of mixed reactions with some people despising the idea and others plain loving it. I personally liked how they gave it a dark/adult theme to the story, however, the character cast (specifically the guy who plays Ash Ketchum) did not roll with me. Anyways, you be the judge and watch it.

*DEAD* Free Starcraft 2 Guest Pass Code

  So I realized after I purchased Starcraft 2, the box and everything inside of it was of no use to me. I still have an unused SC2 guest pass, as well as a WOW guest pass. I could easily pawn these off on Ebay for $1, but then I got an idea. How can I find out if anyone is even viewing/reading my blog.. I know! I'll give the codes out to whom ever responds to this post. So if your someone who has actually been reading my blog or just happen to stumble upon this page, then post a comment with your email and the codes are yours. You can also follow me as well, however, that is not required. Just saying.

Starcraft 2 for $49.99 @ Amazon

 Hey guys, if you missed out on the last deal Kmart had a couple weeks ago, Amazon is now selling the game for $49.99 FS w/ Amazon Prime (Link). Not that great of a deal, but if you can't hold in your urge of waiting any longer, than this might be the deal for you. Otherwise, I suggest you just wait because I have a feeling it will be at $40-45 pretty soon.

Finished Modding My Nerf Maverick

  Ever since that last Nerf war, I've been hooked on Nerf Guns and modifying. The thing you should know about me is that I can be very competitive and so of course I would want to try to make my gun better than others. I pretty much spent most of my weekend watching Youtube videos on how to do such modifications. I removed the air restrictors, full barrel mod, eliminated dead space, and stretched the spring. It may sound a lot, but it's actually quick and easy. Here's a good read-me tutorial: http://humansvszombies.org/archives/550, however, I personally find it easier to visually see how its done in Youtube videos. The average distance of a stock Maverick was between 25-28. My newly modded Maverick ranges between 30-35, which in my opinion is pretty good. After I had finished the modding, I took a look at my Maverick and noticed there was still a problem. The colors. Blue and yellow was just not working for me, so I decided to drop by Michael's Arts and Crafts to purchase glossy black and chrome silver spray paint. Now that's what I call a sexy gun.




In the end, I spent nothing for the nerf gun, $6 for the spray paints, $8 for the tactical rail light w/ 10 darts, and a few hours putting it all together. Total = $14 + tax, so $15. Worth it? Eh.. yes in that it gave me something to do and I had fun, but money-wise, not so much.

Free Steam Game *Red Orchestra 41-45*

  Hey, I'm just at home chilling.. well actually I'm kind of sweating in this heat, but while browsing the web I found a sweet freebie. Its super simple too, no filling out all that long info crap and such.. All you need to do is "like" the Logitech Gaming facebook page and click claim code. From there, you just simply fill out your name, birthday, and email. After that you will receive the activation code, which you activate on your steam account. Here's the link: http://www.facebook.com/logitechg...4396475227. If you don't know how to activate games on steam, simply open up steam, click the "Games" tab and click "Activate a Product on Steam."Once you have entered your code, your steam account will now have the game permanently. I have only played the demo of this game, and it was pretty fun IMO. Well, that's all I have to say.
