I am turning my sites blue for this week out of respect for the passing of Billy Mays. May he rest in peace. One thing we do know is if there is an after life, all the people there are now going to be that much more excited about everything, and the “angels whites will be whiter”.

May you Rest In Peace.
There will soon be a blog post about this past week of celebrities and another pertinent fact later this week by S.P.O. be on the look out for that.

Advent Rising

Hey All,
This is a game I haven’t played in roughly Four years. I first found it on the discount shelf in Game Stop during my freshman year of College; I believe it was a Tuesday. Ah GameStop’s and college, such an perfect union :P , but I digress. I went home installed it and began enjoying it from the start. The game started out by getting us acquainted with universe where the humans existed. They existed on a planet called “Edumea,” and the story starts with you playing as Gideon, the main character, as you pilot a shuttle into your space station, and prepare to meet the alien’s who’s ship has just appeared in Orbit.  Edumea was similar to earth, and they apparently had a myth that they had lived on another planet and after an attack they fled to Edumea. But that is enough of the story for now. I played for an hour or two just after installing it and then went back to doing whatever work I had to do.

I had no classes on Wednesdays until 3:00 PM, so I decided to play for a few hours while killing time until class when I woke up the next morning a little bit before 8. I was hooked. I played for a few hours with my roommates coming and going from class, I remember at one point I was starting one level and my roommate, Jay, was leaving for class. He came back a short while later, felt to be about 20 minutes, while I was part way through another level. The conversation went something like this:

“Hey Jay, Forget something? Your Keys?”
“What?”
“Oh was class cancelled you came back pretty quick.”
“Dude I left like 2 hours ago”
“HOLY SHIT, This game has made me lose track of time”

He had left around 11:00 am it was now 1:00 PM and I hadn’t eaten lunch, not even sure about breakfast. So I decided to play another level or two then go grab some food, since I still had 2 hours.  I keep playing, my other roommate, Ian, gets back and it’s 2:30 now. I just go “Oh Shit” pause the game, get my shit together, run out the door, and grab food in the café before class.

I tell you about that to just give you an idea how strong the story is for that game, hell it was written by ORSON SCOTT CARD! Now there are some downsides. There are a few glitches, and the controls work well for the most part. The game could have used a bit more time in the oven; it would’ve been solid gold (somewhat like the color of the box), instead of only 14K.

To this day it is one of my favorite games ever, but due to some issues on the console platform it came out on first, it lost a lot of possible sales, and the PC version didn’t do well enough because of the poor Xbox reviews. This was supposed to be the beginning of a trilogy that I will sadly never get to see the end of, but here’s hoping some company see’s the diamond in this rough.

I installed this game recently and lost track of time again over the period of a few days and a few nearly sleepless nights. Even though this game may never get its story finished, I Highly recommend you go and pick it up if you can get past the early 2005 graphics. If you enjoy a story go get this game. You’ll love it.

Stabbing Westward

Posted by Emperor Animalistic
Category: Entertainment Tags: ,

I Interrupt the Story of my journey down to the City of the York which is Newest, to speak about a band I have been listening to a lot lately, Stabbing Westward. Stabbing Westward is a band I discovered many years ago when I first was entertaining myself with the game Duke Nukem: Time To Kill for the first Playstation made by that company known as Sony. Stabbing Westward’s song “The Thing I Hate” was used for the intro music, and I was hooked. Even though I was hooked I knew very little about them, and even less about getting there music. I stumbled across bits of it here and there, just enough to keep me wanting more. Recently I found a lot more of there music, and I must say I am hooked. They are classified as an industrial band but their music has a range from heavy, to ballad like. I recommend them to anyone looking for something different to listen to.

Movie: Interstate 60

Posted by SPOSpartan104

So tonight I was introduced to a movie called Interstate 60, and all I can say is Wow. I had never heard of this movie before but I must say all synopses I have read do not do it justice, it is an amazing movie and I highly suggest you watch it. The cast is amazing in and of itself: Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Amy Smart, James Marsden, Amy Jo Johnson, and Gary Oldman. The cast is eclectic and gives this movie a great diversity in acting styles to keep you enjoying each twist and turn to its fullest.

Now even though I believe a synopsis would ultimately fail to do this movie justice, the tag-line works well
“It began as a wish, became an adventure, and ended as the ultimate road trip”

My Conclusion, You should see this movie.

Over and out,
A friend of the Empire

The Dark Knight

Posted by Emperor Animalistic

So by now you have seen this movie. If not, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU. I’m sorry I couldn’t contain myself:P
Ok so The Dark Knight, was a great movie and I must say The Joker was great in it, he was perfect, a maniacal, evil, pure amoralist aiming for pure anarchy, and he was succeeding. That is really all I have to say about it, otherwise I may get too serious…and I believe we all know what the Joker would have thought about that.

Doodely Ding Dong Tick Tock!

DETHKLOK!
We’ve all heard of them at this point, they are the bringers of destruction, the bringers of the METALOCALYPSE, and your Emperor, is a supporter of them. That’s right, I enjoy them and I have now seen them live, and it was an amazing show. The show was opened by Soilent Green, and Chimara. I missed Soilent Green and caught the tail end of Chimara, so I cannot give my opinion on either, however previously I have seen Chimara and they were decent from what I can remember. Now on to the Main event
DETHKLOK!
pic-0137.jpg

It started off with the council, they were meeting to discuss the fact that DETHKLOK was going on tour, and their plan to poison the fans with a chemical fog, to mutate the fans. The lights went dark and the room began to fill with a fog. Then BOOM BRIEFCASE FULL OF GUTS!
Brendon Smalls and the rest of the physical band took the stage and the screen on the backdrop lit up with the video for the song. This is how each song progressed and it was absolutely amazing. Brendon Smalls is quite talented, being the vocalist and lead guitar is not an easy thing, and he was even hit in the head with water bottle while playing and didn’t miss a beat while dodging.

During the intermission they show murderface walking off the stage mid song to take a crap, and the entire band follows :P .

pic-0142.jpg it was amusing.

After that they did the second half of the show, and walked off stage. Then Came the Encore with what else but Fansong! Because you know we give them more than just record sales, we give them something to hate.

Here are some more pictures and most of the set list.

Setlist:
Briefcase Full of Guts
Dethklok Theme
Duncan Hills
Bloodtrocuted
Go Forth and Die
Castratikron
Hatredcopter
Dethharmonic
Thunderhorse
Awaken
Go Into The Water
Murmaider
Birthday Dethday
Fansong

At the concert there were some interesting characters. Like the girl who dressed up as Dr. Rockso The rock and roll clown, spandex and all:P. There was also this metal girl I spoke with as we left the pit (cute too), we were talking about how awesome the show was even though we weren’t expecting much more than a joke, and on top of that it was one of the best mosh pit I had been in in a long time, she agreed.

Oh yea and check out my bad ass bumper sticker:

Till next time;)
