Nobody Reads This

I was writing a real post then decided that this would be more fun! Below is my wish list for 2009 (in the spirit of the now defunct WSAG):

• DRM needs to fucking die
  We all know it’s true, so lets just do it.
   
• Will Wright will die in a freak ATM explosion
  Because I hope he really enjoys having “the sales and metrics of the sims 2″ you corporate sell out bitch.  
   
• Blizzard/Valve will release games within reasonable time frames
  I shouldn’t have to wait 1 1/2 years for an expansion pack.  
   
• WAR, LotRO and every other two bit crappy MMO will shut it’s doors.
  Hellgate is closing it’s doors, now it’s free to play – Watch nobody play it anyway.  
   
• Sony will get what’s coming to them
  With regards to their PR policies … I’m not anti-PS3, i’m anti Sony (and anti PS3-fanboy )  
   
• There will be a scandal surrounding the Wii
  Because they’re far too high and mighty  
   
• Someoneone will actually complete a Master of Magic clone/remake
  Seriously guys … How hard could is possibly be to make this thing work on XP without DosBox?  
   
• Blizzard will announce and release Warcraft 4 using the SC2 engine.
  Do it. Do it now you bastards.  
   
• All 3 parts of SC2 will come out
  If I have to wait 3 years for the 3 campaigns I won’t buy them out of principle. Stop sucking my life away!  
   
• Killzone 2 will be released
  So we can realise that all those clowns who bought a PS3 for it really are stupid. Killzone 1 sucked and so will Killzone 2.

That was definitely more fun, leave me things you’re hoping for in 2009 and enjoy the rest of your day!

Oh and Mark, leave me the URL to your new blog in the comments, I’ll update it while i’m at work.

I’ve decided that I will try to move my Atheist blogging to another place since I have a better chance at a real reader base if I focus on something per blog rather than completely random things which have a tendancy to drive off people.

Then again I don’t really care if anyone reads this … It’s my personal blog. Why do I even have a personal blog?

Anyway check out [21st C Atheist], i’m still working on a few things but comments about the layout and extremely rubbish header graphic would be appreciated (although ignored).

Thanks to Dwayne from Probably Sucks for dropping by

On the topic of Probably Sucking … 41 Reasons why your Blog Probably Sucks (not from Dwayne :p) 

No I’m just kidding – The beauty of NRT is that nobody reads it so I don’t have to worry about writing stuff or what have you. What would I expand to anyway? “Some People Read This”?

Go look at Probably Sucks, you’d swear it was written by Mark.

I encountered a curious religious stance for the first time (personally) recently … Someone who believes in (for lack of a better word) Evolutionism – That there is or were God-like beings but they were created by the same process that all life is.

A stance Dawkins and other staunch Atheists might have some sympathy with considering we believe all organisms exist for the sole purpose of becoming better (America is an anomaly) so by extrapolating that stance you could say that within the confines of science it’s not unreasonable.

Then again this person also had strong beliefs on the “soul” which I don’t personally agree with. When presented with “What makes you you?” you can really only mumble something about personal experiences, social pressures etc etc before admitting that an insurmountable number of things make you you.

A soul isn’t one of them though.

Bleh … I’m so rant starved … I need to have a good discussion with someone … Why doesn’t MSN record multiple person conversations? Piece of shit …

The need to bitch is clearly absent from Maslo’s Hierarchy.

Out of Mind. That’s currently my policy on the HP piece of shit sat on my desk at home. I’m getting ever closer to the idea of just mounting a different HDD in it rather than sending it off, but tbh I still want to get my money back.
