What constitutes a season?

Whenever blizzard feels like adding new pvp gear into the game. This is usually the case when guilds have reached new pve content, such as the somewhat recent patch to the game which introduced a new end-game raid.

I'm learning XNA extremely fast.
Two days ago, I couldn't change the background color of the game.

I just finished modeling my Mountains and Desert for my game, that includes a skybox with clouds and a sun that has lens flare. Also, I have a sweet mainmenu and UI that I put together for the game. I'm almost done with Xbox Live Multiplayer, and map selection as well.

In the game, you're a banshee and you fly around (Either over an immense Desert, or around/over Mountains.) When people join your game, they're another banshee, and you shoot each other for kills. The included features with the Banshee are normal plasma fire, fuel rod cannon, boost, and backflip.

Too bad I can't release ANYTHING, because all of the pictures/bitmaps/textures I used, I took from the internet. The 3D model of the Banshee I took as well. >_>

Ooh, can we see some pictures? Sounds good.

Sure, but I'll have to Google a screenshot feature real quick. It's not something I've experimented with, as of yet.

I'll probably get it to save to the HDD (Like Halo 3), and then you can upload it. The only way I think I would be able to do that is if I had the screenshot feature in-game. I'm not well enough experienced to do a Saved Films feature.

Don't you have like, a really good capture card?

I do, but I have my Xbox 360 hooked up to my Desktop's LCD Monitor. I have it like this because I have to play on it for MLG practices ... it has a 6ms response time, which is only 1 ms away from the MLG TV's, so I might as well practice on it.

I could hook it up, though.

Playing Halo 1 Campaign again...I love this game SO much.
The music brings back such good memories...I can't believe it's been FOUR YEARS since I first played it. It's just such a nice feeling of nostalgia and remembering the times when I first played campaign...then my first mod for MP...dreading fighting the Flood on 343 GS...going to my friend's house after school and messing around on BG...

It's just so good. ;_; So much better than Halo 2 and 3, JUST because of how it feels.

Six Flag tickets are still $25 per person, and with a coke can their $10. Its cheaper for each person to buy a ticket separately using a coke can then if they used the buy 1 get 1 free thing.

Anyway, had a fun night at a friend's. Watched Transformers on HD-DVD (olololol), and then Zodiac on normal DVD. I like that movie.

After about two hours of coding, and learning Javascript, I created a coder that makes Pop Up windows for html sites.

Here's an Example: Click Here

I'm going to release it in a few minutes.
