British Babe In HD

I’ve got a little less than an hour to write, should be more than enough time to write, that is if I don’t get into the internet. But anyways, get the record books out, its the earliest xanga blog to date. Nine-thirty. Wow, even my first two xangas never got it to this early. And also, theres a reason to why I havent been writing as much as of the late. But I wont get into that, the main reason is to fact that I have a had a shit few days after my last xanga entry. It’s taking me awhile to jump back on the horse, but I made it eventually.

But now, back to the good ol’ RJ shit.
So whats the shit of the late? Sometime last week when I felt like shit, I felt the need to watch one of my all-time favourite movies. Y’know, to get some of that weight shit out of my chest for the moment. Though it wasn’t the one to get my shit completely off, it was a great watch none-the-less. Then again, it’ll always be a great watch no matter what. For anyone who hasn’t seen or even heard of this movie, I suggest you go out now and watch Serendipity right now. Why? Because it’s one the few feel good movies that will make you cry twice by the end of the movie, and in a good way too.
Anyways, fast forward couple of days or a week (I’m not sure, whichever I guess. It doesn’t really matter) and I found myself trying to choose a DVD to play while I play Diablo (which I will get to within this blog). And I eventually found a couple of movies to watch, but in the end I ended up watching one movie only. The movie was Van Helsing.
The next morning, I found myself in a similar situation to last night. I guess, its coz I had fun that night before, I wanted to do it again. This time, I managed to fit two movies instead of one. But the first movie I put on was Underworld. Now, someone whos seen all three, or even just two, of the movies mentioned should see the link to every movie. Its not a big brain tickler…

Serendipity  Underworld  Van Helsing
Obviously, all three movies have a familiar face. And a quite hot one I do may add. Yes, it is, the lovely Kate Beckinsale. I watched three of her movies over the last few weeks, and now I've hit the Beckinsale hype. To be all about Final Fantasy, to be all about Metal Gear Solid, to be all about Diablo (again, which I will get to in a moment), to be all about Kate Beckinsalefeels kinda strange since there’s not much really to say. Last night, I was all over the net looking up interviews and gossip about her. But it’s not the same as trying to find shit and trying to hunt her stuff out. Something like that though I still don’t think that makes sense. Anyways, but don’t get me wrong. I still tried finding games that featured her in it, and as bad as it sounds, I found two. One of which I had, but sold it due to the fact that it has a horrible horrible game. So bad, that no, that isn’t a mistake. I intentionally wrote ‘horrible’ twice. I bought it only to the fact that you play as Kate Beckinsales character in Underworld. Obviously, the game being Underworld. Now I want this game back, for the same reason. I have a feeling that I’m gonna make the same mistake. The other, of which Kate has been digitalised in for a video game, is another movie adaptation, but this time the movie being Van Helsing. Though this time around, you don’t play as the hotness that is Ms. Beckinsale. But since this game is Xbox 360 backwards compatible, why wouldnt I want Kate Beckinsale on a next-gen console? Even if it’s a last-gen game hahaha.

Ms. Beckinsale
Man, I could stare at this picture all day long
But how much does this British babe look stunning? I read on somewhere that she isn’t the biggest on self-image. Apparently, Beckinsale isn’t satisfied on the way she looks. I reckon that not a single one of her fans would agree on her thoughts, because it is for a fact that there is millions of guys who would love to get piece of her. Anyways, since I plan to grab a Playstation 3 sometime within this month, I got myself looking forward to Blu-Ray. Now, at the moment, the current list of titles I want to grab when I get a Playstation 3 are: Casino Royale, the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, all the Marvel films, and a few more. These movies, though already owning a few titles on DVD, I would love to get due to the wowness. Those who havent experienced the greatness of Blu-Ray yet would think that Blu-Ray isnt worth getting if the same movie is on normal DVD and with a cheaper price. But then again, thats like saying; It’s no point of getting the Playstation 3 version of a game if the same game is on Playstation and on a cheaper price. Do you know how stupid that sounds? For people who want to experience just the movie or game, yes maybe it’s not stupid. But when you have the next-gen shit to run it, why the hell wouldn’t you? For people who love movies and games, Playstation 3 and it’s Blu-Ray are one to look out for.
Now, how does this connect with Kate Beckinsale? Well, if you havent realised what I’m trying to get at now, lemmie put it like this for you:
Kate Beckinsale, hotness, Blu-Ray, high definition, Kate Beckinsale doing a full on sex scene in Underworld: Evolution with absolutely no clothes on in a huge screen LCD television in HD.
I want a Playstation 3 right now. Not because of the games, but the hotness of Kate Beckinsale. Just thinking of it, ergh, I can’t stand it. I just want it now. It’s that worth it. I’m gonna drool forever until I get that shit.
Anyways, I better move on before I end up writing how much Kate Beckinsale is hot for the rest of this blog. I still got two weeks worth to write about. But yeah, there are penty of Blu-Ray titles that Kate is in. But some like The Aviator and Pearl Harbour, though more HD Beckinsale, I will skip upon. I’m not too much into those type of titles. But others like Vacancy and Click, are ones I will get. Vacancy yes, Click not as much since I hated the ending. Ick. But my top three favourite Kate Beckinsale movies? Serendipity, though Kate Beckinsale has her best performance here, plus I mentioned how much this movie is awesome at the start of this blog. High definition isn’t a requirement of it. This movie has been out for quite some time, and besides I first saw this movie on VHS. Seriously, how do you convert a VHS film into high-def? Next, the Underworld movies. I own the first, but I would rather the British Vampire Serene in high-def Blu-Ray quality. Plus, Kates nakedness hotness. Yeah, you already know. The last one, the one I mention above, Van Helsing would make a great addition to the few Blu-Ray titles I want. Though one problem. It didnt get released on Blu-Ray. Shattered after researching, I found out that Van Helsing got onto HD-DVD instead of Blu-Ray. HD-DVD? For all those who were clueless with Blu-Ray, most likely dont even know what the hell HD-DVD is. Well, it isnt as popular, it’s the Xbox 360 equivalent to Playstation 3. Which would make sense, since the Playstation 3 has a built in Blu-Ray player (then which that would make sense, since Playstation 3 games are made onto Blu-Ray disks) and the Xbox 360 has a HD-DVD component. But the high-def movies wars aint the same as the high-def gaming war, no not by a long shot. While both the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3 both stand strong, the Blu-Ray has nearly everything going towards it as it feels like the DVD has a few years before its due, as to HD-DVD which is upon gasping for it’s last few breaths before its dying demise. It’s been mentioned on the news all over the place that HD-DVD is dead. Where movie giants like Warner Bros have pulled out from HD-DVD, stopping production for the video format last month. Titles have been decreasing, and only a few titles were released on may this year, and even more less just last month. Even the Xbox 360 HD-DVD external drive has drastically reduced on price, the cheapest being $5 on K-Mart somewhere in America. Damn. Though, rumours have it that HD-DVD will be resurrected in China (rumours says as CH-DVD), it’s still faces the facts that HD-DVD has died.
So Van Helsing on Blu-Ray isnt too much just to dream for.
But I still cant wait for Beckinsale to make more films. The more films she makes, the more Blu-Rayed Beckinsale hotness. Woot.

Argh, the computers here in RMIT are fucking worst than being capped at home. The internet soo slow, I would rate this worst than dial-up. Hell, I can’t load up any single page.

Its now eleven thirty, it took me two whole hours to write more than one thousand five hundred words about Kate Beckinsale, Blu-Ray, and the death of HD-DVD. Wow, and I was supposed to write for an hour about the shit I did the last two weeks. By-the-way, the last two weeks were my mid-year holidays. I pretty much did nothing but sleep, play Xbox 360 (Guitar Hero 3 mainly), do shit for my birthday, and visit my girlfriend. Seriously, that seriously sums up to weeks. And to my surprise, I bought no new games whatsoever. There’s usually a new game that pops up because I want it so much at the moment, but seriously, there has been nothing new.

Ergh, no matter where you go when you get to the city (or even on the way to the city), theres always one person whos got their music soo fucking up enough for me to reckonise that fucking song. It’s soo fucking annoying. No, I dont want to listen to your music. If I did, I would get out my fucking iPod and listen to that shit. Do you want to listen to my shit? No, I didn’t fucking think so. Ergh, some people seriosuly are asking to be deaf when they’re thirty. Why would you want to damage your ears? People who listen to their music that loud are fucking the same as people smoking like every moment they can. Did you know people kill themselves by hooking up the exhaust pipe via hose into the inside of the car and locking themselves in. Turning on the car and taking in all the fumes. Thats suicide. So tell me, whats the difference to smoking? Other than the fact that it takes longer to kill yourself?
I dont care if you smoke, just dont fucking take me down with you.

Theres a reason why Im writing different to the way I usually have my xanga format. It’s because after a small chat with my sister about careers, career pathways, and just shit with me at the moment. I’ve given up on the path leading to either Psychology and Gaming Design. Though I wouldn’t mind still getting a job in either career, I found that my passion and my skills would be better off in writing. Thanks to Pags for making me realise this. The fact that I write and play games all the time, wouldnt be a bad decision. Plus, getting paid to pay games before they given come out, hell get even playing any game and get paid for it. Fuck off, that’s soo worth trying to hit up. So I’ve decided to aim for that by starting now. Hopefully, the more I time in this format will help me improve my spelling and grammar. Though through MSN and other friend network sites, I will continue to use my trademark writing format.

Anyways, time for the gaming news, the daily update of RJs gaming life.
As you know by now, the hype is Kate Beckinsale, but last hype was a game and soo is the current hype for the gaming world. And no, it isnt Metal Gear Solid.
Last week, I found out that a new game was coming out. But usually it’s either a Xbox 360 game or Playstation Portable game, to lesser degree a Wii game, a DS game, Playstation 3 game, to even more lesser degree a Playstation 2 game. But near to never would I get excited about a PC game. For that, if a PC game did come out, I would wait until it went budget price or get a copy from some I knew. I wouldn’t grab a PC game from it’s release date. This game is game way different. This game is Diablo 3. I was up on the moon when I found out Diablo 3 was announced. I found out four days after it was announced and all over the net. Ever since then I have been ecstatic about Diablo all over again. Diablo has been my first PC game love. The first PC game I bought. I remember when I bought this monster of a game, I remember having the huge box that PC games used to come in. They were a size of a encyclopedia or something like that shit. But yeah, this game took me to the PC gaming world hard. It was the shit. I made a tribute to Diablo last Friday to try and finish the very first Diablo game. I wanted to try and finish it as fast as possible, and legit too (yeah, I remember cheating on that game using trainers to spawn over-powerful weapons that would kill the final boss in like one blow). Well, on a course of two days due to fatigue and shit I had to do, I finished it in ten hours. Fuck. If have played this game to the very end, you would know that when you get two-thirds into the game, the game fully fucks with your head. Though it’s a simple hack and slash dungeon game, you’re faced seriously with vast amounts of demons or monsters or whatever they are shooting whatever they can at you. May it be, magical bolts, or lightning, or could be acid (which not only hits you and burns your life, but splashes onto the ground so that you step on it a take damage that way), or lava, or just plain arrows. And no, this ain’t a few at a time, oh no it ain’t. It’s twenty to thirty at once. So in a matter of a seconds, you have one hundred bolts shooting you. What’s worst is that chose to be a warrior and to wield an axe. No shields or projectiles coming from me. So After taking a barrage of hits from the enemy, I finally take one swing at one monster. Hmm. And after a few another barrage I take another swing. Seriously, this game fucks your head in. Especially, when you play it straight into the night and come face-to-face with Diablo itself at one in the morning. You have someone twice as big, mauling the hell outta you with another thirty of his minions throwing everything they’ve got at you. Fuck.
But I did it, I finished Diablo. And all I need to do now is to start playing Diablo 2. Which I would do, but its hard to start a game that you havent even got. I know I know, it’s sounds fucked up how I rant about how good this game is, that it’s soo fucking awesome that I have to get it on the first day… yet, I still haven’t got the second. Yes, I am a fuck bag. Anyways, this is the game I am currently hunting for. Now I could head into any EB store and find out it in the PC games section. But no, I don’t want to do that. I want the Diablo Battlechest, which contains Diablo (which I already have, but it’s worth having twice), Diablo 2, the expansion pack for Diablo 2, the strategy guide book for Diablo 2. Seriously, EB has it for $69.95 and with the half price shit they have on at the moment, thats $35 for all the current Diablo shit. Wow. I’d get that, so I want that.
But no matter where I go, its no where to be found. What the fuck, seriously, how is that possible? But apparently, the Melbourne Central EB told me that they were gonna get them in next week. Is that even possible?

Anyways, I really should stop before I kill you guys from over-reading.
I’ve nearly hit the three thousand word mark. And it’s exactly twelve thirty, three hours since I started this. Fuck, I have been at this computer for ages.
Aight, time for lunch and Diablo hunting.

Video Games I'm Currently Playing: Diablo (PC), Champions: Return To Arms (Playstation 2), Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock (Xbox 360), Pokèmon Pearl (Nintendo DS), Pokèmon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness (Nintendo DS), Metroid Prime Hunters (Nintendo DS) and Super Smash Brothers Brawl (Wii)
