AkuPyro's Mind Dump

Well, its been a while sense I updated the spaces deal and all. Just kind of busy and all here and there. I think the last post noting the TLD convesion to the blog is indeed out dated now. I have converted the site back to a function website dedicated to gaming. Thats the way it started and it now has a use: hosting LAN Parties. I have been helping out in organizing them and setting them up for ages, so why not? It gives me something to do and allows me to keep up to date with it...somewhat =P. Belegarth has also been treating me well; fun stuff. I just got done with another PC build of the weekend. The Antec 900 case is nice and all but limited on the space a lot! The case also does not cater to ports that connect at parallel with the motherboard (they sit on the edge of the motherboard....maybe a 90 angle for better describe them?).Despited the space issue and the port restrictions, I got everything crammed in and running. Man, the GTX 200 series are beasts! I wish I had on myself but it would just be a waist of money to upgrade now from my pair of 8800GT's. I will just wait until the DirectX 11 cards come out as everything now seems to be DirectX 10.x. I do have to say the the machine I built (for someone else that is) is an awesome machine. Now, time to get paid (I discounted them as they were a family friend, still have to make money somehow eh?). Well, I will come back to this site sometime again....just don't know when. Peace out my wondering interweberz.

I have converted my main website, www.nationofflames.com, into a blog type site. I may or may not continue to post items here as I have uploaded all of my current posts to the main site.

I recently downloaded the DBZ Burst Limit demo on XBL. I like good fighting games that a fluid and don't have the non-escapable, one constant combo, instant life ending at the start of the match, move. That being noted, the past DBZ fighting games disappoint me. After getting the feel of games like DOA4, I can't stand anything that you can't strike back when you getting pounded by someone who knows all of the moves. I can't speak for it fully, but the demo allowed me to get out of some massive combos to keep the fun fighting rolling. Overall, the game itself (hooked up to a 22in wide screen LCD monitor) looked awesome and and had an anime look to it. I may have to get this game as it looks really good at this time. Will have to wait and see though because impulse buying on what if's can lead me to buying a Two Worlds (biggest disappointment ever!) again.

Grr! Ok...I am working through my WDS problems but every time I have found a solution on the internet, it does not work! I am currently trying to making the install of Windows XP be completely unattended. BUZZ! Wrong answer with WDS. WDS is the latest and greatest, but they pull a major functionality for legacy support. Bah, Microsoft is the king of suck right now. =(

Bagels are the bomb...they are so good they deserve a post!
