2010: Out with the frauds...

Right, so in 2010 I made a resolution to turn my back on the frauds. I began by combing my YouTube account friends, subscribers and subscriptions, deleting all those who are guilty of being the following:



-Entertainers who have no vested interest in Playstation3, but say they do, to build a following.
-Those who hawk prize // reward sites that rip off gamers and web surfers alike.
-Those who try to establish themselves as spokesman for PSN, yet own all 3 systems.
-Entertainers who have no proof that they have any ingame skill, at all, not even alittle (lol).
-Those who have established themselves as game collectors.



Some of the cuts were hard to make, but when you see their behavior isn't changing, you have to do what's right. Who did I cut? Well, I'll be vague about it, as to not give them any more attention. One tackles trees, another pair appeared to be the biggest ps3 supporters until they bought mw2 for another console, and another - well she just couldn't stop asking people to go to this website pyramid scheme, or another site scheme.

There are others who I didn't need to delete, because I had never visited their channel. Sure I had seen them mentioned here or there, but they're the types who you can fully predict without having any interaction. You know, people who mug for the camera and argue endlessly. That's not, nor will it ever be my thing.

PSN doesn't need leadership. We all pretty much established ourselves as free thinkers by purchasing the Playstation3. In my own personal experience, the whole year of 2006 was spent answering, "No." when asked if I owned the console that breaks, and again, "No." when asked if I planned on buying one. Puzzled stares, recusals, so much bullshit. Locally I'm like a guru, if something is about to hit stores, people ask me if I'm getting it, etc. Even when it came time to buy my Playstation3 in 2007, I had to argue with Gamestop clerks for like an hour, they wanted me to buy another brand... Wound up driving 3 blocks and picking my 80gig ps3 up from BestBuy. We really don't need anyone telling us what to buy or think.

I still see a few subscribers with site avatars that hawk stuff, am currently asking them to change it, if that doesn't happen, round two of cuts will weed them out.


MAG beta is over. There's actually a contest now, with an amazing prize package awarded to the player who racks up the most points by Sony. Some kind of dream entertainment center, tv, ps3, surround sound, the whole nine. But the objective doesn't suit my play style. In MAG I'm that dude who is mercing enemies as they leave their spawn, I'm between them and objective. Typically in MAG you get the most points for killing enemies who are at an objective already, or you kill them while you're standing in close proximity to an objective. The whole attacker // defender thing. That's cool and all, I just experience a higher rate of success for myself and my team when employing my strat, point farming is too risky unless you have a good team everytime who can afford to gamble. Best of luck to those competing though.

With MAG beta over that leaves like 14 more days till we have the finished product on shelves. I'll probably spend that time finishing up my Valkyria Chronicles battle playthrough, and Demon's Souls playthrough (I still need to beat it also). What will you guys be doing with those 2 weeks?

Till next time...
