i have been a die hard call of duty fan since i first played it the first one in 2004, and i still to this day play call of duty 4, how ever, i have bought the new call of duty modern warfare 2. now what i am about to say about it is, in fact, sorrowful and i die a little inside saying it. i use to love infinity ward for providing the most realistic modern war game ever made, cod4, with its breathtaking graphics, stunning visuals, beautiful gameplay, realistic damage effects ( to a certain degree) and great "war is hell, and satan's our best friend" attitude reminding me so much of me, but playing cod mod 2 hurt so much, physically, that literally 5 minutes before i just signed on livejournal for the first time in over a year i had to turn off this piece of shit game. america, internet, world, hear me, i used to love call of duty, but modern warfare 2 sucks. its so incrediably bad that it stings my eyes playing it and causes my voice to be horse from yelling at the worthless flashy piece of crap. heres how it started, (spoiler alert, but i dont care, read it you assholes dont buy this game)

my brother, my cousin and i came home with this game, so psyched about it that when we brought it to our fathers house for a weekend visit. we were so excited for playing it we actually forgot the Xbox at my house, and we live a state away. we were so pumped for cod mod 2 we actually went through the time to go all the way back to rhode island, 1 hour drive there, cought in traffic, dark out, and raining for visual effect, to my house, break in because it was locked and i didnt have my key, grab the xbox, lug it back to the car, drive an hour back for our forth trip, through traffic, in the dark, while its raining (and also listening to disturbed) just to play the damned game. we were astonished by its awesome incredible graphics, they were truely unreal, while we played multiplayer. after a couples hours of fighting eachother, we tried to tackle the campaign, going on its hardest difficulty as usual. yes, i thought i was in love when i saw its remarkable game play and story at first, but that was before i found it in bed with dirty filthy anti american liberal British cock sucking american hating piece of filth whore that is the new infinaty ward (no offense to Britian, but infinity ward can suck biritsh cock, which it does). we saw it for what it truely was by about the "frontlines are over, uniforms are relics" bullshit line, and i had to have my brother play through the bitch ass level where u play as an american soldier killing hundrends and hundreds of russian citizens with a terrorist group, while under orders to do so from his fucking general!! what the fuck IW?? you bitch! and then, oh the fucking FUCKING part where Russia somehow instantaniously generates an enourmous clone army of Rusky storm troopers, fly a few world war II parachoute planes over into america (cuz its not like theres complications to any of this, its EASY enough just to fly a few million soldiers into america and attack the white house, ANYBODY can do it) and magically lay waste to the washtington DC where my brother himself guards and is stationed as US Army Honer Guard, somehow including killing the president of the united states, cuz its not like he has secret service, honer guard, or body guards anywhere. oh, and did i mention this is the first fucked up CoD game where you dont play as the Marines? yup, thats right kiddies, cod mod 2 basically fucked up everything the others had going, including abandoning all realism and research faster than a catholic would abandon its redheaded retarded misformed baby with incredable down syndrome and a 666 mark of the devil on his scalp. and of course i cant forget, the part that made me turn it off, without finishing it at all, the fucked up rediculious part (FUCK YOU INFINATY WARD, FUCK YOU) where (FUCK YOU) your running from half the russian clone army and (FUCK YOU TO FUCKING HELL!!!!!) america turned evil on us, thats ri(FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)ght, america turns bad, what the (FUCK YOU IW) fuck? (FUCK YOUUUUUUUUUU!!!) your playing as the british sgt Roach when all of a sudden general fucking Sheppard himself shoots you in the chest with his retarded desert eagle and that magically meant all of america fights the british? i mean (fuck you you assholes at infinity ward, fuck you sideways with a saddle!) seriously, one general goes rogue and not only isnt executed for attacking his own allied soldiers, but is also followed by every soldier in the country that the US can conjer up, or at least im assuming from what i saw in the next 30 seconds of cinimatics that i couldnt drown out before i turned off the game, kicked my tv set and went strait here. seriously, people of the world, i hope this message gets all over the place, i want people to see how serious i am, infinity ward is one of the america hating mother fuckers in whom every last god damned person and their brother should be kiled horribly in the worst manner of my imagination, and i can imagine quite a bit. did i mention fuck you infinity ward, for destroying my old favorite game? yes, thats right, it pains me terribly to say it, but Modern warfare 2 is not just a bad game, but is the most horribly massacred game in the world. infinity ward and all their america hating ways should go directly to hell, and satans my best friend. from the best of times, to the worst of times, i played through every game Call of Duty had to offer, and through it all, none have been so bad as the sequel to a sequil but not quite a sequil (which is fucking retarded in the first place) people call Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2.

oh, and by the way the multiplayer is actually pretty nice, just to completly fuck with your minds

just a few drawings iv made over the years in my sketch pad, out of bordom, but i know my little cousin loves this stuff, so i decided to post it. I have a whole bunch of snake and wolf drawings but im pretty afraid of my brother at this point because he'll end up posting in his insane voice "unstable tendencies!". i dont know what he has against the furry fandom (tho its not my place to judge, i dont think dressing up as animals in public is the best thing for the young human mind. but Sun has a wierd phobia about these people...an eerily strong phobia

Yesterday afternoon, Friday, March 27th, 2009, 2:45 p.m. i was riding a bike home from school, and not 3 blocks from my house, i hit a green light, so i stop (riding on the sidewalk, not in street). after a couple cars drove, two finally stopped, signaling to me they were going to let me through, so i go about halfway across the white walk-way and the freaking retards decide to floor their cars, being a four way, the one on my right (really in front sort of) ran a red light, and the one on my left took a right turn at this time, not 2 seconds after they let me go. instantly, seeing this i pedalled as fast as i could to avoid the car, and then seeing the other idiot running the red light, i slam on my brakes (by slam i mean squeze as fast as i could), missing the second car by inches. seeing that the other half-tards behind them are going to follow like cattle with their brains cut in half and motorskills comepetly FUBARed, i had to go as fast as i could not to get hit by them. I narrowly missed getting hit 3 times in one day in this town, now i know for a fact that these people are worse drivers than a bird with his beak bent upward as to block his vision and both his wings broken, removing any remote possibility for it to move the steering wheel. its like Jesus H. Christ, what do they steer their cars with? keyboards? and do they replace their own glasses with in-pointed nails or something? there should seriously be a vigilante group out there slashing tires of every rhode island driver in the state. its ironic that its called rhode island, because nobody here should be on the road. they should in their houses trying to figure out how to place their blocks to make words and the best way to get their toy back from their parents after misbehaving

jus.......im sorry lol. i love this game so much, i cant let go!

The Few, The Proud, The Marines:

Saviors of the Seas:

Death before dishonor.....

Sorry...i just love this game so much.

            After re-hearing Martin Luther King's best speeches, i find it annoying that people still talk about Obama being the first black president in America like he were the God-sent savior of our pitiful, short, underlived lives. Im fine with him being african-american, but its been mentioned. we don't need to hear it anymore like there was some significance to it. Aside from that, i just really do hope he is as good as people think. Stepping away from Obama, i REALLY find it annoying that poor people are still holding out their open hands expecting more charity. Obama is living proof that anybody can make lemonade with lemons. Now we all have our lemons, and everybody can make their lemonade. I have virtually no remorse for those stupid enough to drink the lemonade after they made it, and become poor for that short-term, good tasting moment. The smart man will sell their lemonade once it's made and make more money to buy more lemons, from which they will continue to sell their lemonade and become rich. Those who have made their choice to drink it themselves are now stuck in this rut, and they can either find another lemon tree and make money from it's lemons, or ask passers-by to give them their lemons. That is what i find pitiful, because most of those people will sit on a street begging. Notice in all of those speeches that MLK made demanding equality and harmony between whites, blacks, yellows, purples whatever, he did not EVER beg for handouts. In fact he did just the opposite and stood up for his nation and his people, actually doing something, rallying people together and joining black people, and white people in hands against what we really need to fear: Ninjas. (lol  sorry just thought i'd toss in a joke to lighten the mood) stupid joke aside, this junk i hear on the news about Obama being the first african-american president being "one of the greatest moments in history" is as dumb, stupid, ediotic, rediculous, ludacris, mental, and dimb-witted as me becoming the leader of camals. He will either be good, or bad. him being black has nothing to do with it. And what i feel is very ironic right now is that as i'm typing this up on my livejouranl, right now as i speak i am being messaged like crazy by one person i met on X-Box Live who is begging me to help them in Gears of War 2. If you are reading this right now, i will say this only once more: I DONT HAVE GEARS 2, I CAN'T HELP YOU!! SHUT UP AND PLEASE STOP BOTHERING ME!

This one has some meaning to me, especially ever since my older brother has enlisted himself into the Army. The show BoB i think should be watched by every American,Jewish,German,Russian,European,Asian,Australian, Spanish, Dutch, Portuegueze, Northern Southern, Greek, English, Scottish, or Irish family on the continent and every other family on the planet who can bare to live and breath the words Patriotism. The show is sad, it is bloody, it is surprising, it is justified. But most of all, it is true. Band of Brothers is important to every family in the world because it is based on a war that effected every family in the world; World War II. Both my great Grandfather and my grandfather faught in The Great World War, and we learned from him for years, until he finally got alzhiemers. I never met my Great grand dad, but from my Gandfather, i used to very much enjoy constantly listening to him tell stories from his experiances( whether in WWII or his old High School bully stories) and learning from his wisdom. i feel bad that i am actually talking about him as if he were already gone....
Just watch the music video, then watch the show, and then question the way you think about war in every possible manner, because whether you believe war is good or bad, war is innevitable, and war is neccassary. Enjoy the MV

Get a good look? good, 'cuz thats how i felt after i found out that an M1 Garand costs roughly $1000, so i am unable to afford such a gun, and then this is how i felt after i was told it's a possibility i will get a .22 of my choice for Christmas:
i am open to suggestions, so please let me know what you think is the best .22 rifle in the market that is affordable.

i forgot that i had this video. i made this video a long time ago when my friend joey and i were playing Ninja Gaiden on every difficulty, and i decided to tape my first encounter with the Mirage Ryu (Fiend Ryu in America). i dont remember which one was playing at this time but we were both pretty much equilly good at the game. i hope you enjoy :-)

          Three days ago, i have had the most intense video game fight of my life. Now i know what your thinking, so if your saying "Apophis, how can a video game be intense? It's not like your in any real danger.", then all i have to say is im going to video tape another sniper battle with this other person in order to show you, but i must warn you, and implore you to stray far from that video if you are the weak of heart, because this other person is amazing. I was playing Call of Duty 4 on X-Box live, on a 1 on 1 scenario, we are both snipers. Nither of us had headsets on at the time, so enither of us could hear the other speaking, or breathing. I was using a Barret .50 cal., a semi-automatic sniper rifle with high power, and he was using an R700, a bolt action rifle with good accuracy. We played on the map known as crossfire, i was the Marine corps. and he was the british SAS. This man was amazingly swift, like a ninja almost. He never, not once, even stepped foot in the same place twice. Like a ghost, he traveled from one edge of the map, to another. i have nicknamed him the ghost, because of the way he slipped through anywhere possible, sniping at any point. He was fast, pin point, and deadly, so much so he reminded me of my brother (sun_stealer). In fact, he killed me thrice before i knew which way was up. he had gotten 70 points before i got my first point. But, i knew my brother taught me well in sniping. And my father in surviving. I have an unusual stratagy. most snipers move after each kill or two. i almost never relocate. the way i snipe is i snipe from a spot you wont know where you are being fired at from, because i dont miss, because i dont fire until i know i wont. this stratagy is also my downfall, for once someone finds out where i am, i am forced to move or i will be shot. for this, i later heard the other person call me "the Shadow" for the way i am unseeable, nie invisable. however, the ghost was using a stratagy i have never yet encountered. he didnt just fire and relocate. he fired while on the move. he sprints, lays down behind a table, fires, sprints into another place and fires from there. no, he didnt even do that, he fired while sprinting at times. he was amazing. his sniping points were random, unfortold. but i had faith in my skills. im a deathly good shot, and i have a steel hand. the score was 87 to 53 at about halfway point. i was the underdog, and he was the wolf, stalking my every move. there were 2:00 minutes left. i was plugging headshots, but he kept moving, and shooting. before i knew it, the score was 97-95 (3 points to each kill, 5 points to every headshot) and there were only 12 seconds on the clock. he was ahead, and we were niether of us behind any sort of cover. i was on the 3rd floor of one building, at one point on the map, and he on the 4th, all the way across. we both knew where we were. we both of us, were in plain sight. both standing. both aiming down our scopes. the difference between us was his crosshairs were directly on my head....and mine 2 feet above his. i felt his finger on his trigger. i ducked and immediatly, at the exact same time to the milisecond, he fired. the shot just barely whizzed above my head and hit the plaster wall behind me. i fired the very second he did, and hit him square right between the eyes. all of this happened before the clock hit 11 seconds. Through my scope i saw the enemy sniper fall limp, 2 miles away, off the side of the wrecked building. i leaned, relieved, back into my chair. he was a very, no, extremly good player who played an excellent game, and had i not ducked his bullet would have strayed true right down my scope. i had better reflexes and accuracy, but just barely. i took a breath, grabbed my headset, and stated "well played.....Ghost".

Oh hoorah!! my 50th journal entry! This calls for celibration! hmm.... where is sun-stealer at this time, if you are watching, break out the champaigne! In weigh of this event, i shall talk about what i enjoy most: weapons! (and also i believe i just invented a new phrase, "in weigh of things").

Say you are in the military, and money was not an issue, which weapons would u bring along with u? iv got all of my favorites, but because i love so many weapons, im going to have to give my choices of weapons for each position i would b in. If you read this, please let me know what ur favorites are and let me see a picture of it as well. thank you.



Front Lines, City:

G36C, Magic Wolf Custum

The G36C Magic Wolf Custum: fit with an ACOG (Advance Combat Optical Gunsight), reduced recoil, shorter barrel, smaller carrying handle, and a stock that has most of the metal removed for lighter weight and better manouverability. Holds 30 rounds per magizene. This weapon would be my choice  in a city, this weapon excells with medium range combat. It does do because its lightweight, accurate, powerful, and efficient. for further research, i recomend going to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G36C#Variants to find out more about the G36C varient.


USP .45

The USP .45: A heavy duty .45 sidearm. This weapon has so much firepower that if you are shot, even with bullet proof armor, it would still break your ribs. This weapon holds a 7 round capacity, and is somewhat heavy, but makes up for it in availability and firepower. It is a simple weapon, and as i and my brother always say, "The more complex the gun, the more likely it is to fail". It is very useful to have in close quraters, or if you happen to run out of ammo.

Military Combat Knife
The Military Grade Carbon Steel Combat Knife: I would never go anywhere without a knife, not even with what the military says about the weight of the knife could be another clip of ammo. At least with a knife, one, u dont run out of ammo, and two, i wont be captured alive. The carbon steel variation of a knife is more endurable than a normal metal because it allows it to bend ever slo slightly, but relieving stress from the blade, never-the-less the black color of the carbon steel will also keep off shine, so an enemy will not see it if you are trying not to get shot (which god hopes you are). The carbon steel will also keep the blade sharper for long long periods of time. So, in other words, dont leave home without it.


Frontlines, Indoors:

MP5SD3

The MP5SD3: An SMG (sub-machine gun) developped in Germany. This stripped down SD3 varient is integrated with a supresser and a laser sight, specifically for "lone-wolf" ops (operations consisting of only one man in a mission) but is also useful with squad missions. The weapon is accurate, with high rate of fire, but if your looking for firepower, this is not the weapon for you. This weapon has a 20 round capacity (somewhat small) and is very lightweight, due to its tiny size. The weapon is very useful in close quarters.

USP-CT

USP-CT .45 sidearm: This handgun is on the top of my list when it comes to sidearms because it is small, lightweight, and powerful. having a .45 sized bullet, this weapon will put u out of the fight, no matter where you are shot. The weapon is also fitted with a laser sighting for extra accuracy. The grip on the handle will make sure you do not lose control of this firearm, even though it has a huge kickback. The USP-CT (compact tactical, or nicknamed the "counter terrorist") varient is a good weapon in close quarters if you are unlucky enough to run out of ammo with your main weapon. And also note that the compact tactical is not compatible with any sort of supressor. This weapon holds a 7 round capacity per clip.


Cold Steel Tactical Knife

Tactical Fixed Blade Knife: This knife gets its name because it is just a simple, long knife that has no complications added to it. it is useful in a situation where you are trying to sneek in somewhere or are trying to be quite, because a foldable knife or otherwise complex knife would make noise when you unsheath it. This plain and simple knife really gets "to the point" (har har). Again, the black color of this blade will disallow shine (but no, it is not made of carbon steel).


Front Lines, Wooded Area:

M16A4

The M16A4 Combat Assault Rifle: A newer version of the M16A2, now the standard weapon for the Marine Corps. while the Army uses M4s, the M16A4 is a highly accurate, devistating firepowered, grenade attachable rifle that is lightweight and has the option of 3 round burst-fire and fully-auto firing capability. Due to its lighter weight, in the woods this weapon would be very useful for ambushing, as well as infiltrating. The weapon features the 3 round would be very well suited for one-shot,one-kill situations, while the fully-automatic feature would be useful for fighting a crowd. Holds a clip of 60 rounds.

M1911 .45


The Colt .45 M1911 pistol: the side arm of choice during World War II, this weapon's simplicity still keeps it in my favorites. Holds 7 .45 rounds, packs the punch, but would not go through modern armor. Although its large size, the weapon is surprisingly lightweight. And in the woods, i would want as little weight on me as possible, for best manouvering. You never know when you are going to be ambushed.

WB Combat Knife


The WB Camo-Knife: another simple knife, simply made for cutting. It would be useful in the woulds, or if the enemy is too close, Its triangular shape would allow it to slip easily into the neck of an unsuspecting enemy. 'Nuff said.


And My Favorite:
Sniping, Any Enviorment:

M107 Barret .50 cal.

The M107 Barret .50 cal. Big Bore Anti-material 12 round Sniper Rifle Equiped with a High Performance, Heavy Duty, High Precision Scope and Laser Sight: ....You had me at the title. This weapon is enourmus, and the power behind it is unfathomable, getting shot by one of these is like being hit by a bus. But the recoil is more than surprisingly low. In that immense barrel is a spring at the back end of it, much like cannons on a Navy ship, and when fired, the barrel moves backward, taking away a lot of recoil, but dont fret, the kick back is still enough to knock you down if your not standing firmly on the ground, or laying down. I garuentee that whatever you shoot with this, is coming off.

Barretta M9 Supressed

The Barreta M9:mstandard issue sidearm with an attached supresser (above picture is not supressed): A light sidearm, only to be pulled out when enemies actually find you sniping, is last defense only. But if you are doing your job right, they wont find you. This would be my weapon of choice because its light and you can attach a silencer on it, so it wont get in the way while you are sniping. Holds a capacity of 9 bullets per clip.


Sniper Double-Edged Combat Knife

Sniper-specific Knife: This weapon is always, ALWAYS useful to a sniper, you would never know when you need one. The double edge allows you to "steel" a sniping position from an enemy (sneek up on a sniper and kill them) because both sides are a weapon. whether to slice a throat, stab a back, ot just to cut a vine to make a rope, this is a necesity to any sniper.

well, this is the first music video iv done that hasnt involved video games. this is on an animated movie (no, not by Disney) that iv seen recently, and thought id make an mv for it. well, enjoy

Edit: also, sorry lol about all the wolf stuff im posting, but when i get bored, wolves come to mind. And this movie, having just seen it, was somewhere in it, so i just went ahead and made a music vid of it.

                       I am not racist, but i do believe that many people voted for Obama plainly because of the color of his skin. I do not think that he will make even remotely as good of a president as most people think. He, in my opinion, is just way too young and immature. And he doesn't realise that not everything can be resolved unviolantly. America, the brave, cannot just coward out of wars, which is what i fear Obama may end up doing if  when we end up with wars in the future, we have a name to live up to. The world needs someone to lead it, and honestly, i wouldnt put Obama in charge of guarding a corps from a raccoon, let alone the entire world from itself. And i also think that Obama puts way too much effort on the poor. People who are poor because of disabilities, tragic situations etc. is one thing, but to give away tax payers money to people who are just plain too lazy to hold their own is a whole nother story. People are poor for a reason, life doesnt just "decide" you are poor, you do. And to vote for someone just because he will give money to you out of other peoples pockets is ludacris, Obama is just too inexperianced for my taste. But America has spoken....and whether i like it or not, Obama is in the house now (no mean intended). But with dignity, and pride, i stay true to the republican party. I am with the GOP.

                      Dedicated to that wonderful president lost too long ago, for Ronald Wilson Reagan, i salute you.


                      Apophis-a true patriot.

                      Today, America will decide who will become president of the United States of America!! (or as Opera calls it, the second most powerful person in the world) and i swear, if my prediction was correct....i....i will sing Moonlight Sinata while dancing with an Anaconda hovering in mid-air while combing a wolf using the fang of a dragon, and i will eat the wolf if it helps......sorry where was i?


                      So it will be decided: will i be correct? will i win that 20 bucks? will Emeril continue to use so much olive oil? well im sure we can speak for all of us (except the person on the other side of that bet) when i say i certainly hope so......is it too late to take back that promise from earlier? 



                      well to get into the mood, im going to write down all the lyrics to "The Star Spangled Banner". Here it goes:

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
 

On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:
'T is the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
 

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wash'd out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
 

O, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand,
Between their lov'd homes and the war's desolation;
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us as a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!


         took a little while to remember by heart but....ITS FOR MY COUNTRY


~Apophis-a true patriot
