I knew Webby online through his son-in-law; Whom I met on last year’s Xbox friend meet up tour.

I met Webby in the South of London on the Isle of Dogs.

Webby took me on a tour of his old stomping grounds in London. It was hilarious recording the old man shouting at cabs.

We went to his favorite Pie & Mash shoppe. Beef Pie covered in parsley sauce.

Then it was off to the Greenwich Time Museum.

Can’t be ice cream on a hot July day.

With a stunning view of London.

Road trip Webby’s house to the Eastern most town in the UK.

Mr. & Mrs. Webby were such amazing host.

p.s.  November is always such an awesome time for gaming memories… LIVE first went public in November, GoW came out in November… and most importantly, (though it isn’t technically a gaming moment)  it’s my b-day in a month!

Game play:  I loved how the game is very similar to Prince of Persia. You have to climb pipes, walls, and perform acrobatic feats. The platforming is some of the most fluid I’ve ever seen. There have been times where I couldn’t tell  if  I was pressing the buttons or it was a cut scene. I was truly sold on the awesomeness when I unlocked the hover board cloud. I rarely have my jaw drop during a game, but I had one bad ass HELL YEAH moment.

Rent or buy, this is one game you should experience.

 The skill will come with time, you may have to try a certain part over and over again but it’ll come. For example, the first time I played the the third level I died for what seemed like a million times. But after I beat the Manga comics I went back, tryed it and never died and got over $30,000.  One tip I have is only use the triggers for shooting and jumping, this keeps your thumbs free so you can aim, shoot and jump at the same time. Get used to it because it’s very important in the later issues. Also, upgrade and buy as much bonuses as you can get. The bonuses are not only hilarious, they actually add a percentage of your score at the end of the level to your score so you get lots of MONIES! The more monies the better right?

 So please don’t give up, you’ll beat the part of the game you’re on eventually. It’s a great game, seriously, don’t rage quit. Be a REAL gamer. I’ll say it agian, don’t give up.

Happy gaming!

CONTEST IS NOW OVER. THANKS FOR PLAYING!

Now, people who pirate games I can’t stand. It’s one of the worst things any gamer could ever do. When gamers pirate, they’re stabbing themselves in the back. For example, if you and your buddies steal some hotdogs from a hotdog stand the hotdog person might not make any profit. So next time you and your buddies want a hotdog, the hotdog person won’t be there because he didn’t make enough money to keep the stand going. It’s the same with games too, except games deal with a lot more money. so if say 60,000 games are pirated there may not be a sequel because their sales were bad because of all the stolen games. It also causes a lot of talented people to lose their job. Is that worth paying nothing for a game?

So what can we learn about this? Don’t pirate games because it’ll come back to hurt you. Plus, I’ll be very cross.

Built by Chris “Omega” Ruble from Gamer-Grafix.com, the Xbox 360 has been modified to resemble a modern day military humvee, and was inspired by Fun For Our Troops.

The Xbox 360, enclosed within the Hummer’s shell, is entirely functional and features its own built in monitor, as well as a 250 GB Hard Drive. Chris has fused his passion for supporting the troops with his love of art and video gaming  to shape one of his most impressive pieces of work to date.

Maulkiller Pack Pre-Order from Gamestop:

Exclusive Character: Maulkiller – In the cloning facilities of Kamino, Darth Vader created a warrior of unparalleled strength and power by combining the genetic material of Darth Maul, former apprentice of Sith Lord Darth Sidious, with his own apprentice, Starkiller. The resulting aberrant clone possessed traits from both warriors, but the crude fusion of two disparate Force users quickly produced physical and mental instabilities that led to the unfortunate clone’s destruction. For a brief time he struck fear into the hearts of all who faced him, even Lord Vader himself.
