Screw GameStop - Donate your games to the troops in Iraq!

"Discuss No matter your stance on the war in Iraq, I think we can all agree that our soldiers have a very rough time over there. Therefore, I am very happy to bring to your attention the CAG "Donate Games to the Troops in Iraq" Campaign.CAG neushane, who is a member of the US Navy and is currently deployed in Fallujah, is spearheading the effort to collect your used (or new) games, and distribute them amongst his fellow troops.

Please send your game donations to:

SK1 Shane Neuhaus

30 NCR DET 1

FPO AP 09381-1702

Current generation games are preferred. Postage should be similar to shipping to most other USA destinations.Once your games arrive in Iraq, they will be photographed along with their recipient. We've got a Flickr gallery showcasing the current haul. Wombat and other CAGs have already started sending some games over and I'll be shipping out my donation this week."

Oblivion is a great RPG that has hit home for most people. Its full of action, pretty good graphics and first person shooter style makes it a Extremely addicting game. I have known freinds that played 100 hours on it and didn't even touch the main quest! Personally its one of my favorite rpgs ever. I highly recomend it to you if you haven't played it yet!

Free online Game of the week: LineRider!

I found line rider at school and like a lot of kids in my town I loved it. Such a simple but genius idea. You draw something and a little man on a sled rides it.You could draw anything you wanted and that was about it. There has been a lot of improvements since i first used it back in the simple days and now it is so much more. Now you can save and load tracks that you have been working on. You can draw scenery and detail that won't interfere with the rider. As a added bonus our school didn't block it which was a miracle for me and my Friends. We lived to much time scared we would get caught using proxy servers or such that when we found this little game we abandoned those tools.

Pros:

1. Fun and simple
2. Is not blocked by most services
3. Extremely addicting
4. There are many great videos of amazing line rider videos.

Cons:

1. I wish there was a color option
2. Extremely addicting (Not really a con)

Here's a quick line rider I made in about half a hour. I wish the video included the building segment but when I took a quick break to play COD4 I accidentally didn't save the video files.

Xbox marketplace releases free game for their crappy service.

Who the **** am I ?

Xbox live released a free arcade game because of the horrible serivce over the holidays. I downloaded it today and was rather dissapointed. It seems like a fun game but not something to really spend much time on. By the description I though it would be a fps, but it is the usual arcade like game but I decided I would still try it for the sake of the blog. After about 20 minutes into I came to a reasonable conclusion. I would easily take good service over this lame game but we all can't be choosers ,can we?

Sorry!

I wanna say I have been on vacation or I have been sick this past week but sadly I have been just lazy so I aplogize and promise some new post soon!

The Goozex.

Now this isn't new information at all. in fact it is quite old but I would like to tell you all about a great game trading website and if done correctly will cost you no money. This is goozex.com the reason it is so great is because if you have some old games you wanna trade you put it on the website. Someone then requests it and you send it to him/her. You then get goozex points in return. With those points you get to choose a game and then someone ships it to you. It is very reliable and the only time you have to pay is the shipping and handling. Now most people have to pay for trade "credits" and you will to have to after some time, but if you keep getting people onto the site you get 5 free trades. And thats that.
