Fairly Angry Mike: Simcity - Review


Yo!

I review Simcity. Check it out. I am not sure why the video has those black borders this time. For some reason fraps decided to screw me over I guess?

All in all Simcity is a decent game for people that like those kind of games. I find Simcity to be somewhat boring after a while and I personally will not play it to any extent.

Ah well! I will try to fix it until next time. Enjoy the review and please do subscribe.

Sc2: Heart of the Swarm

Yo!

So now HoTS have been released and we get to continue the epic adventure of Raynor and Kerrigan. I have been looking forward to this for some time as I have always been an avid Starcraft fan. Now, I have not released any videos of me playing Sc2 and the truth is I was on a break. For about 2 years.

The reason for this is simple. I get too emotional and angry when I play. Even when I win. After a win I get angry because the guy who played me dared to play me. It is insulting to me that someone that was that shit would play against someone like me. Haha I am/was sick.

Team games were even worse. I remember me and my brother owning and pwning as a team. Until one day when we lost and it just escalated into an all out skype brawl that must have lasted for about 1 or 2 hours. I don't think we talked for about 2 weeks after that. Thats when I "quit" playing Starcraft 2. Ah good times!

However, now that HoTS is released and I have a blog/youtube channel known as Fairly Angry Mike I figured it might be time for some proper rage videos.

So look forward to that in the coming days/weeks.

Take care for now and good luck in Sc2 Heart of the Swarm!

Logitech G930 Wireless 7.1 Headset Review


Here is a new review for you all. This time I take a look at the G930 Wireless 7.1 surround headset from Logitech. It is quite a good headset that emulates surround sound very well in the games that support surround.

You can find this headset almost anywhere online so if you are on the lookout for a food quality headset then definitely check this one out.

Peace!

Simcity launch

Hey kids!

Happy days. If you pre ordered Sim City you can try it out now. Or can you? Probably not. There are some severe server issues going on and the launch is looking a bit unstable. Reminds me of the Diablo 3 launch.

This is one of the hazards with preordering or buying a game on launch day when it has "always online" type DRM. Many players will surely be frustrated by this and rightfully so. It appears it is too much to ask for a stable launch these days when it comes to a game that is always connected. Why is this?

Surely experience is not something that you get first hand only. There is a certain amount of experience to gain by looking at other peoples mistakes. Such as drugs or alcoholism. If I see or hear someone talking about how shit it is to be addicted to drugs then that kinda tells me something. It tells me don't do a line of coke. It might end badly.
The same kind of logic should apply to launches. Diablo 3 had some serious issues with the servers on launch day and you would think that other companies would look at this and go Hmmm lets not do that. But no. The issue is most likely a matter of cost. Too bad.

The only tip I have to give frustrated gamers out there is to never preorder games. Wait an extra week or so and buy it then. Unless you are hardcore. If you are hardcore and plan on being the best at your specific game then you might not have the luxury of waiting. Sucks to be you I guess.

Another thought that popped up in my head is to pirate the shit out of these games. But since I am super duper against piracy I would never say such a thing.

Peace out yall!
