Guide to Retribution

The three talent specs for paladins are: Retribution, Protection, and Holy. I prefer Retribution as do most paladins, but! you must be spec correctly to truly be proficient.

here is an example of a properly spec lv.70 pally:

This spec build is mainly for PvP, because of Divine Purpose. which reduces the chance to be hit by ranged spells and hand of freedom completely removes stun affects on your target. To change the spec to PvE, instead of putting points into divine purpose you would put points into Crusade. Which increases damage to humanoids, Undead, elementals, and demons.

here is a link to my paladin - Fälcon


DISCLAIMER - Ret paladins have issues getting into raid and instance groups. This spec is best for leveling and Pvp.

Life on live

Shooting, Trash talking, and explosions. Those are the words that I think describe halo 3 online; for months I’ve been telling myself to get Xbox live and I finally did! I can firmly say that I have been missing out, but now I can join my comrades on the battle field. My little group of friends started a “Clan” ( a group of people that have the same emblem and play together in team slayer ) called the Polar Bears. Since all of us are Caucasian, er well expect for one he is dubbed the “Brown Bear”; The funny thing is polar bears skin is white and their fur is clear.

3 of the 6 bears.

But we Bears get shit done, when all of us are online and have our mojo flowing people get massacred, but don’t take that the wrong way we have had our fair share of ass whippings.

Team Slayer on Valhalla (Im Nigh4cr3w)

That was one of those matches were we laid down the line, and crushed the other team. But before the match started they were talking trash, all the typical BS people say over live. It is fun to talk shit if you’re kidding but when its “serious business” its stupid and that’s what they were doing, it was hilarious because the guy who talked the most shit got 2 kills through the whole match.

Sadly my friends aren’t on all the time, so I go solo. Normally I play Rumble pit ( A mix of Slayer and other Free For All Games. Go it alone, or join as a group and throw down against each other. -Bungi.net ) which is pretty fun. But if I am feeling a little hardcore I play lone wolves which is ranked, the ranks are 1 - 40. Currently im at 15, its gonna take a while to get any further. Usually I place 2nd to 3rd on a good day but there are those days that I get my ass handed to me.

Heres a screen shot on a good day -

Unfortunately I didn’t win that match, but I did do some damage with the plasma rifle. That was actually my final kill before the match ended, so I felt victorious


Well that’s the end of my rant on xbox live.
Till next time!

Earthbound aka Mother
WARNING! SPOILERS!

History: This the sequel to Earthbound Zero which was for the nes, then after Earthbound came Giygas strikes back; which I didn't play. The creator of this great series is named Shigesato Itoi hes most famous for the mother series


My Relation with the game: There's a long story behind this game, I first got it when I was around 8 or 9; it was the near the peak of the poke'mon craze. And my cousin owned the game and I would always play when I could come over. So one night I was over and we were playing with our pokemon card, and I had a really rare card and he wanted so I made a deal. My card for Earthbound & the guide, he said yes, the idiot. So I walked away with a 40 dollar game and a 20 dollar guide, and he got an 8 dollar card; I think I got the sweet end of the deal. And since then ive been playing the game, on the cartridge I have a level 99 set, which is almost impossible to do.

Story: EarthBound is set in the year "199X" in the small town of Onett, part of Eagleland. The main character, Ness, wakes up when a meteor falls close to his house in the middle of the night. He heads out to investigate the meteor, but not before his mother reminds him to change out of his pajamas. At the crash site, he meets an insect named Buzz Buzz from ten years in the future who sends him on a quest to defeat the intergalactic destroyer Giygas in this time, because he is too powerful in the time that Buzz Buzz came from. Ness must then journey through the world, seeking his eight "sanctuaries" where the Earth's power is strongest in order to unite his own powers with the Earth's and gain the strength needed to confront Giygas.
Ness finds the first sanctuary in Onett and then moves on to Twoson. He rescues a girl named Paula from the Happy Happyist Cult in Happy Happy Village and finds the second sanctuary there. Then, they move on to Threed, which is overrun by zombies. When Ness and Paula are captured, Paula sends a telepathic message to Jeff in Winters, who uses Dr. Andonuts' (his father) Sky Runner to reach Threed and rescue Ness and Paula. The three of them travel to Saturn Valley, which is populated by a bizarre race of Mr Saturns, who have been going missing recently. A massive pile of vomit named Belch has been kidnapping them, and has also given life to the zombies to attack Threed. Ness defeats him by using a jar of fly honey, and Ness finds the third sanctuary in Saturn valley. He moves on to Fourside. Once there, he discovers that Fourside's Mayor, Monotoli has been taken over by a strange item called the Mani Mani Statue. Ness frees Monotoli, who tells Ness to go to a pyramid in a desert.
Ness finds the fourth and fifth sanctuaries in Winters and Fourside, respectively. Ness returns to Threed and fixes the Skyrunner to go to Summers. Ness falls unconscious in Summers and dreams of a far-off land known as Dalaam, where Prince Poo has completed his 'Mu' training and joins Ness on his quest. The four of them find a boat and go to Scaraba and Ness finds the pyramid, where he learns how to defeat Giygas. Ness returns to Dalaam and finds the sixth sanctuary there. He uses a submarine to go to Deep Darkness, where he meets Belch again. Once Belch is defeated, Ness finds the Tenda Village. Only the Tenda can open the way to the Seventh Sanctuary, but they're all too shy. Apple Kid has a book about overcoming shyness, but is kidnapped by Giygas. Ness returns to Winters and rescues Apple Kid, and Dr. Andonuts, who begins building the Phase Distorter, a machine that is essential to defeating Giygas. Ness uses the book to convince the Tenda to open the way to the Seventh Sanctuary. Once he activates it, he finds the eighth and final sancutary in the lost underworld.
When Ness activates the final sanctuary, he is teleported to a world made out of his dreams, Magicant. He destroys the evil Mani Mani Statue there, which destroys Magicant but also makes Ness very strong. Dr Andonuts finishes the Phase Distorter and uses it to send Ness, Paula, Jeff and Poo back into the past. The four of them find that Ness' neighbour, Pokey has allied himself with Giygas. Giygas becomes so powerful that his mind is completely destroyed. Paula begins praying, which weakens Giygas' defenses. When the ness begins praying too, Giygas is completely destroyed.

Gameplay: EarthBound is a very traditional RPG, fighting various monsters to level up . In towns, players can purchase items, recharge energy, or gather information from various NPCs. Battles are not random because the enemies are visible in the navigation portion of the game (which you can avoid). When the characters encounter an enemy, a battle starts. The player can be at an advantage(green) or disadvantage(Red). How you get the advantage is by walking up behind the enemy; this allows you to attack first. If you don't have the advantage the enemy gets to attack first.

Story/monsters: Ive done my research and it seems that the monster hunter series doesn't really have a story basically, you hunt beasts and monsters. The monsters remain the same from Monster Hunter 2, with the exception of Yamatsukami. Its replacement is the Tigrex, a quadrupedal dragon (that ninja dragon/trex hybrid pwns you!!) it first makes its appearance in the early stages of the game; like 3 or 4 missions into the game.

Yamatsukami & Tigrex















Game play: Monster hunter feels almost identical to PSO (Pantasy.Star.Online.) The combat system is hack & slash combined with a real time RPG just like PSO. But where Monster hunter gets it originality, is its Item system, the weapons and armor are purchasable, but the soul of the game play comes from it's creation system; In which you gather items from fallen monsters by craving them; just as a hunter would do. That was my favorite part of the game, but sadly the combat aspect got repetitive. It felt like I was doing the same mission over and over again. Do get me wrong the game is fun, just I get board of it after a while.

Graphics: Superior, for a handheld. The detail on the levels were nicely detailed. Although there wasn't much expression in the characters face, it never really changes. But that's understandable it's a handheld game; so they really don't have much of a choice.

Rating: 8/10


Monster Hunter- Revisited !!


Well this last weekend I had a LAN a buddies house it was cool; we drank dew and play monster hunter. Last week i did a game review for, i gave it an 8.5..

I was a little wrong i have to say, the game is meant to be played with other people. definitely not a single player game. The multiplayer is amazing! they have an awesome set up. first you visit the guild hall/gathering hall and someone in your party post a quest on the bulletin board and you sign up for the quest. I logged about 4 to 8 hours that night; but I paid for when i went to work the next day lol oh while it was worth it.

So I give Monster hunter a 9.2. Pick this one up if you have a psp and a love for hack & slash

Game Review- Mass Effect
Warning! spoilers!

Plot- The game begins aboard the Alliance ship SSV Normandy, commanded by Captain Anderson and his executive officer, Commander Shepard. The Normandy is being sent to the human colony world of Eden Prime to recover a Beacon built by a highly advanced extinct race, the Protheans. To assist in recovering the Beacon, the Citadel Council, the main government for most of the galaxy, have sent one of their top agents, a Turian "Spectre" named Nihlus.
Nihlus, Shepard, and a small team discover that the human colony, Eden Prime is under attack by alien synthetic life forms known as the Before the mission Nihlus takes his own route but shortly into the game, Nihlus is betrayed by another Turian spectre, named Saren. Saren orders the geth to destroy the colony, After shepard saves the colony, you find the beacon and then Ashley Williams ;a character that joins you near the beginning of the mission. Some how activates the Beacon and she start to be dragged towards the prothean beacon, Shepard acts quickly and saves Ashley. But was sucked into the beacons path and received a vision of the Protheans being slaughtered by machines.
The Normandy and its crew are call upon by Ambassador Udina to the Citadel to report on Saren. The Citadel Council concludes that there is not enough evidence to charge Saren with treason. Shepard discovers a recording of a conversation between Saren and one of his allies, an asari Matriarch named Benezia, discussing their victory on Eden Prime. The recording also mentions the return of a force known as the "Reapers", which the geth believe are a race of sentient machines that wiped out the Protheans, as well as an artifact called the "Conduit". Confronted with this evidence, the Council revokes Saren's status as a Spectre. Since the Council cannot send their fleet after Saren without provoking a major war with the independent Terminus Systems, they decide instead to make Shepard the first human Spectre, and charge him with hunting down Saren.

Gameplay- You might of thought that you had to only be Commander John Shepard, but when you start a new profile, you are able to fully customize your character, right down what kind of scars they have. The game starts with six default character classes, along with six more unlockable ones. Each class contains several skills; as each skill is leveled, the character either gains stats, unlocks new attack abilities (for example leveling the Shotgun skill unlocks the Carnage ability, which allows the character to fire a concentrated blast from the Shotgun), or unlocks other skills. Each class also possesses a unique type of skill with the same name as its respective class; the characters may also have talents tied to their background.
Good vs. Evil- Instead of the "good" and "evil" approach that past BioWare games have taken, Mass Effect ethics is based on giving points as a "Paragon" for choosing more polite and professional military actions, or as a "Renegade" for taking a more ruthless and shoot now ask questions later method, which is the path I took. "Paragon" and "Renegade" points are scored on two separate scales.

score- 10/10
I loved this game. Play it.
