Destiny the dark below | just not enough

Dear bungie, your first expansion pack is simply not enough. We all paid for an expansion and we got a tiny bit sized portion of what a real expansion should be...but that's not even what I'm mad about. A lot of players, who are still playing, complain about all sorts of stuff that doesn't matter and mosty likley will not change. My beef is the fact that the vault of glass is now worthless. That raid was a challenge and was actually difficult...but now there is no reason to go through it....unless you are waiting for that 0.01 percent have drop of that rare weapon. 
How could you make the best part of the game worthless...what you have given us is such a sad shadow of what the game was suppose to be...I will forever keep the faith and hope you will hear our prayers.

Bungie has put a lot of effort into this game and their vision has been crushed by a consumeristic world. The players have complained and fixes have been made...no they weren't perfect but at least the problems were addressed. This game is some what "first of its kind" so yeah there will be plenty of things that are unfair and unbalanced...it will take years to make sure every class and every weapon is balanced so everyone can play how they want...give bungie a break and just know they are listening.

Destiny and the cheesing method

I really hate this term. It's used to describe a method of beating a boss that is not quite legitimate. Most of these methods and slight game glitches some are exploits of the map itself others are methods to get a boss stuck in a certain vulnerable position. No matter what the method cheeseing is a super easy way to defeat bosses or levels.
There is nothing bungie can really do about all these methods of exploits...there are just too many players with too much dedication to this game to not find methods to cheat bosses.
I have used almost every method of cheeseing there is and I am not ashamed of it, but I know I don't deserve the armor or weapons I have. 
I will not discuss these methods with you because I believe you should beat the levels the right way, but a simple YouTube search will show you exactly what you want. 
Oh bungie....we love your game soooo much please please give the players more content before the new DLC next year or I fear you will loose all of your fans.

Destiny players beware of weekly reset

A friend and I were gaming late last night waiting for the 3am reset. When the time came we jumped right into the weekly nightfall. It is that bad wizard strike, but with solar damage!! So as two warlocks we tore through the strike pretty quickly....omnigal took a lot of pain however after about 30 minutes we knocked her out. Unfortunately there were no rewards for our struggle. We did a little Internet research and turns out you really need to log out and log back in to refresh your game.
Just a quick FYI for all you guardians out there

Xbox 360 update netflix error

The new Xbox live update came out the other day and it is looking great...the only problem is I can't access netflix anymore.
After downloading the application I went to select a tv show to watch, burn notice, and it would not load. After a moment my video link was dropped and when it came back I had an error message. I've done this several times with the same result so...
I tried to turn off the Xbox and restart....I even deleted all netflix saved data and reload...but I still get the error message.

Microsoft please fix this error!!

In other news I've bought my first domain ever!  epicreseller.com is my storefront for domain, hosting, ssl, merchant account and much more!

Samurai Warriors 2 for the Xbox360

I am continuously searching for the best hack and slash co op game for the xbox 360 and recently I came across Samurai Warriors 2. This game is much like any of the dynasty warriors game in regards to leveling up a character and taking over a battlefield. There are endless soldiers to kill and as your specific player levels they get easier and easier to kill.
You start out with maybe eight original characters to play through and as you finish wash storyline you will get an achievement and unlock another character. When you start playing remember you are level one with no weapon so I would recommend playing on easy until you can get some money and find a stronger weapon. I also advise in buying all the 'growth' skills as early on as possible because they grow everytime your player levels up....it should go without saying that you level up faster in the beginning.
There is only three things you can 'equip' as it were so that layer of customobility is quite low.

Weapon: depending on the difficulty setting you can find better weapons with available slots and possibly elemental attributes ...you can't pick the attributes to add they upgrade randomly from the shop
Guard: the game has three different ones to start with....they are all okay I suppose however my favorite to use was either the ninja, because of fast attack, or the fire ninja, because he used explosives. The fire ninja definatly won the battle a few times...the attacks were best because the explosives would interrupt and knock back enemies
Mount: different types of horses....you definatly want a mount they make winning a battle much faster. So invest your money in one.

All in all the game is fun and easy to play with someone who is.not exactly a taker however I am still in search of a better hack and slash. This game gets boring after the 3rd or 4th character.....

Borderlands for the Xbox 360

I forgot that I really enjoy playing video games and especially RPGs...and so with that in mind my real life friend and I took on the challenge of Borderlands for the Xbox 360...this game is legitimate for the most part.
The game is basically an FPS much like Fallout. There are 4 different classes to chose from...
Soldier - with a turret that can regenerate ammo and health (best choice)
Siren - with some silly ability to "Phasewalk" and high elemental damage
Ranged Class - good for using a sniper he has a bird that will attack a single enemy
Berserker- Melee character big meat shield.... with an action skill to beat enemies.

Soldier class FTW...the game play is mostly FPS with a little bit of RPG but not much...the "talent trees" leave something to be desired, but like the game insinuates there is literally a "gazillion guns" to chose from...gernade perks, class perks and artifacts.

Some quests are a little challenging for me...just the scavenge ones because the parts are very small and difficult to locate. Remember the programmers are only kinda hiding them from you....take a second to look around!
