The Zombie Scenario Survivor Test

Would you survive a zombie invasion?

Here’s how I scored:
Armed and Dangerous
Congratulations! You scored 87%!
You made it out, alive and well supplied. You probably even kept most of your party alive too. You know what to look for, what to take, and when to just run. You even feel a strange inkling to go back. If you did, you’d probably do just fine.

Here’s one of the funnier Star Wars Kid remakes, Star Wars Kid - A New Hope

Alright. I have an Xbox 360 (thanks to Surpass), but I don’t have very many games. I am looking around for the best games, but I figured I’d ask the question here. Which games should I get? First here’s the small list of the games I own:

* Perfect Dark: Zero
* Marble Blast Ultra
* Preorded Gears of War, which is going to be awesome!

I have also rented Full Auto, which I do like very much, but not sure if I want to go all out an buy it… I also rented Call of Duty 2, and beat it. Did not play in the online mode much, so maybe I will buy it, maybe not. I have also played the demo for the NBA game, and did not like it very much (I want the old school NBA game for Sega Genesis!). I played the demo for Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, the demo is very limited, so it doesn’t seem that cool, but I have heard very good things about it, so maybe I’ll pick it up.

I did not like Morrowind though. It was way too boring and slow, so I do not think that I will pick up Oblivion, though my brother might be getting that one

So here’s a list of highly rated games online:

* Burnout Revenge (Never played it or demos, don’t know much about it)
* Fight Night Round 3 (Played a demo, couldn’t get the hang of it, not too much of a boxing fan though)
* Far Cry Instincts Predator (Heard good things and bad things)
* Top Spin 2 (Tennis.. I don’t think so, leave that one to Mario)
* Mutant Storm Reloaded (Never heard of this.. but mutants, awesome!)

So, anybody think I should get any of those? Or do you have any other ones that you reccommend? Use the Comments link below this post to submit a comment on the article.

I’ve been interested in running an operating system purely off of RAM, creating a drive from the RAM and attempting small gaming on that, but the downside was that as soon as you turned off the machine, everything was gone, and you would have to reinstall when you wanted to play again.

Now apparently there is a RAM hard drive created for this type of thing. When you power it down, it actually takes everything in the RAM and stores it so that you can access it again when you power back up. The awesome thing about this is the read/write rates that you will get when working entirely with RAM. This is one of the cooler things I have seen lately.

If you have not heard of Max Barry, you’ve got to check out his books. They are very funny. Max Barry was in marketing or something like that, so the books are based around that. His books are Syrup, Jennifer Government (which is now also an online game, NationStates), and Company (Just released).

Here’s a little info on Company:
Book Description
A bitingly funny take on corporate life by the author of acclaimed bestseller Jennifer Government.

At Zephyr Holdings, no one has ever seen the CEO. The beautiful receptionist is paid twice as much as anybody else, but does no work. One of the sales reps uses relationship books as sales manuals, and another is on the warpath because somebody stole his donut.

In other words, it’s an ordinary big company. Or at least, that’s what everyone thinks. Until fresh-faced employee Jones—too new to understand that you just don’t ask some questions at Zephyr—starts investigating.

Soon Jones uncovers the company’s secret: the answer to everything, what Zephyr Holdings really does, and why every manager has a copy of the Omega Management System. It plunges him into a maelstrom of love, loyalty, management, and corporate immorality—and whether he can get out again, now that’s a good question.

It’s been like 3 days without a news post! That’s craziness. Anyways, this is not a real news post, just letting you know that in the next couple of days I will be adding the ability for us to put our videos onto the Broken Fork site, and then once I get that done (probably monday), we will post some nice videos of SoBe bombs. SoBe bombs are some really cool little things, and we’ve got multiple videos, along with a couple other fun explosives. More updates to come later on all of that!
