Wed. September 30

Hello everybody, how are things going. As I was working the past couple of days, I came across a something that caught my eye, one thing that caught my eye was when I was working on a project for another class. For my Visualizing class, a group of my classmates and I have to make a internet game and add for 9-12 year olds, but the catch was that we can only use the colors black, white, and shades of grey. As I was working on this it hit me, if we had a little more time to work on this it could be a pretty good game if made right.

Hello everybody, how are you guys and girls doing. As I was hanging out with a couple of my friends and we were playing some video games, I had a couple of ideals for games that could be pretty good, I just wish i would have wrote them down. As I look around and play games, I notice that multi-player is becoming bigger and bigger in the video game communtity. Some games are going away from having a deep story to having a very big multi-player aspect. I'm love multi-player games as much as the next gamer, but I think you need to have a deep story as well to make the game even more in depth and better. To me a good example of this is Bioshock 2. This first installment of this game was just a single player experience that was one of the best games I have played in a long time. In the second one, they are going to expand on the story and now they are adding multi-player to it that looked very good. Here's a clip of it that I found: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZOf49lpucs. Seeing this clip is making this a first day purchase for me. Well it was good talking to everybody, see you guys and girls in class tomorrow.

Hey Hey

What's up everybody, it's me again. How is everybody doing. Finally finished doing some big projects for some of my other classes. Still kind of struggling in making a picture mean two different things but I think i got it right finally. Went out and bought myself a treat by getting two new games for my XBOX 360. I bought Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 and NFL Madden 2010. I've been playing games not as much as I use to, but i'm playing now trying to get ideals for a video game i've been wanting to make for a long time and also see what some of the latest video games have to offer. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 is a Role Playing slash Adventure game with everybody's favorite Super Heroes from Marvel like; Spider Man, the X-Men, and Iron Man. It also has some heroes that people might not know. NFL Madden 2010 is a American Football sim I got because I love football and I love to rebuild teams to see what I can do. Hopefully, taking all of these classes will help with computers so I can have a better understanding of programming and design. I'll probably have to take some kind of art class so I can draw a little better. Well, I guess I will see you guys in class later on today, Goodbye.

What's Up!!!

What's up, hello classmates it's me again. I had a good weekend, did alot of work, kind of struggling on my assignment for the class but I'll get it done. Watched football pretty much when I wasn't studying. My favorite team had a last second win against their rivals, Michigan 38 to Notre Dame 34. GO BLUE!!! Finished up writing a manual for TCM 22000, Technical Report Writing, turning that in tomorrow. Well, I guess I will see everybody Wednesday for class. Have a good day.

Day 2

Hello to everybody, it's a wonderful day, how's everybody doing. Today is my long day and i'm here from 1 til 9 and my first class today is Design Issues in Digital Media, the second assignment in the class was kinda hard but kinda easy because changing the main ideal around was easy but coming up with a ideal was the tough part to do. The assignment was fun because it made me actually think and not just try and take the easy way out on it. What did everybody think of the assignment?
