October 21st, 2009 Game News No comments

anyone know some good tech podcasts ? please leave the link or rss feed in response to this thread.

Terminator Predator Or Transformers?

May 6th, 2009 Tech News 2 comments

Simply put, who would win?
Terminator is like an Earth created computer virus. Then again, so are transformers. Predator is the most advanced of fleshly beings in that mythical triangle so they might be advanced enough to say ” yeah we have done this before” . But they are of the flesh and they can only learn so fast.
Terminator Has the Mercury(?) shape shifter dude from T2 and the female from T3, and a few from the chronicles.
Transformers are freaking tough and advanced but how advanced? I don’t think the Decepticons where so brutal as terminators.

So question is.
Who do YOU, think will win?

Post a response and please explain don’t be a newb.

New WINDOWS LIVE Breaks GTAIV even worse

April 22nd, 2009 Tech News 14 comments

Today April 21st, Microsoft released a new update to WINDOWS LIVE . The forums at GTAFORUMS.Com goes crazy.
Looks like Microsoft bundled some lines of code that totally trashed what few users and players of Grand Theft Auto IV, that Rockstar Games had left. The game seems to work fine in Multi- Player , but has traumatic effect on Single player mode. You can no longer tweak and adjust your game. The game stutters so bad and hangs up, that no one can get even four minutes of play time to test out said tweaks. It kind of looks intentional.
Picture this:
Rockstar games might have actually put the screws to Microsoft, for allowing cheats in thier online community, and well, looks like they might have barked up the wrong tree. Sad part is, they are contracted to them, so they can’t just drop the windows live program.

This of course is where the modders and tweakers need to come together. MTA-IV and Iv-mp need to band together and make something quick to save Rockstar in this.

Now this is pretty much speculation, but man it would be scary if it was true.
Xliveless is the way to go, but patches are hard to get and use once you do that.

If you feel that Microsoft needs to Address this, Sign below with a response.
Let our Text be read, we need to prove there are more than just a hand full of out there.

Call it a petition. Call it a group effort. I just consider it a gathering of upset customers.
We are customers of Microsoft, we are displeased.

Even if you do not agree with my opinion, let your’s be read and lets let Microsoft hear from us.
Just reply to this with your opinion on the matter.
Digg it for me

My work week’s favorite podcasts

October 16th, 2008 TruXter No comments

Jobacle – Helps relaxe you in your job, but helps you keep a level on head on self respect, no more working on your knees for little pay. you don’t have to take it. Jobacle can help.. oh yeah and the occassional favorite song from indies, excelent. MAKE WORK BETTER

Slashdot review – This week was a bit messed up though. The feed died out and showed the same stuff as last week.  On the spot steady fire of tech news. Usually informative enough to be plenty for you, but you can always google it and read about it when you get home. by then it will be out in the main wild. you will hear stuff here a day ahead, sometimes a month.

The linux action show – These dudes are fun to listen to. I have some of the people in the office saying  “ON THE LINUX ACTIiioON   SHOWWWWWW” just like the dudes on the podcast, as they walk past me. Funny stuff.

The tech guy – Excelent show, nothing could make it better than just leo sittingthere breaking news to the main stream tech community and helping by answering their questions or giving them a usefull link to somewhere usefull.

See every day I listen to these guys, some times I mix it up and listen to a whole other batch of rss feeds. but these guys I have at the top of my list of feeds. I have to hear them as soon as they come out. It beat sitting around listening to the same  15 songs all week on public radio. I hate when I listen to a fricken song  that I do not like, and find myself singing along like 2 months later. Feel like I’m being brained.

So I come to talk internet media  AKA “NEW Media”. This stuf is really good talent and great media..

If you have a work computer with speakers, you might want to look into rss feed media. wild how you get graduated into a higher level of apreciation.

Have You Seen jPod?

February 18th, 2008 TruXter 1 comment

Have you seen jPod yet?

It’s yet, another very good Canadian comedy from our beloved favorite director Mike Clattenburg, the guy known for the viral indy series Trailer Park Boys, based on the Douglas Coupland novel of the same name. No, it does not have Robb Wells or John Paul Tremblay. It is not in any way a remake of the Internet hit that we all know and love.

It is on the other hand something that stands a chance of being one. See, there was a glitch with the Y2k bug that threw a handful of game designers at E.A. into a basement area of their game development building. It’s okay, though. This crew of three guys, two girls and their obsessive leader boss are pretty much the biggest cut-ups in the company.

The new boss comes in and decides to overhaul the game that the jPod crew has been working on for some time and turning it into a few things it should never have been. The new boss has no frickin’ taste whatsoever. It’s a blood and guts game, but Steve, the new boss, wants turtles and role model women incorporated into the game. Not against women, just you can not make that big of a change that far into developement.

One guy is a hacker kid.

One guy has screwed up parents. His mother wants him to bury a body and hide the remnants of an illegal plant she has growing back home. I think his dad used to be “Mr. Seaver” from Growing Pains. His wife thinks he is gay and losing his mind.

One girl is an ex-fatty turned hotty with low self-esteem.

One is a hot Asian female with a strong attitude and a mean dad.

And then there is “Cowboy,” the resident Gigolo. He is cool.

Online Flash Video Games

January 17th, 2008 TruXter 2 comments

I created a page to fill up with games . The idea was so I could have something else going to keep my brain from from slouching while I am at work waiting on the server to get fixed,or blue print to print or just stuff to do on days when I bring my lunch.

Games

http://iworkwithpeople.com/games

Well one of the ladies at my job walked up while the game was open (but I wasn’t playing at that exact time). She asked me what it was and I explained that it was one of like 5 games I uploaded to a hidden section on my own website. After like 3 days, another one of the ladies from my job walks up and says “hey is that all the games you have on your site?”.. I didn’t know how to answer. I mean if I said “nah I plan to upload a buttload and waste my time on the clock playing stupid games all day. So I paused for a second and said ” well I was thinking of putting up new stuff every now and again, but not a whole bunch of stuff” she said to me ” can you get like a bingo or a tic-tac-toe game?” I busted out laughing. I mean it, really. Doctor Pepper shot out of my nose. Well I started uploading a game here and there and different people came up telling me what was lame and what they want. I was like “dude get your own frickin’ server” but then I realized that I now have a hobby when I am home… making this stuff work.

After a bunch of complaints I removed a lot of the games and just kept the ones everyone liked.

Well if you have a request or know of a site that I can get more games from, help me out — the natives are getting restless. lol
