POTC - At World's End




Yep, I saw it. Pirates of the Caribbean - At World's End, the third film in the saga. To be honest though, I wasn't particularly impressed. Don't worry, I'm not going to give you the full review, because you probably don't want one, due to the spoilers I might give away and all. Anyway, the film really wasn't that good. I'll admit that the actors who acted in it were good, and I did enjoy some parts of the plot, but not others. My favourite part of the film was probably when Captain Jack Sparrow had a battle with Davey Jones (I think that is what he's called, I mean the guy with the tentacle beard). So basically, I'll some it up like this:

  • Too long

  • Too cheesey


I have nothing more to say, except that the end of the film did hint that a forth Pirates of the Caribbean film would be coming out, but after this one, I don't know if I would really want to see it. Anyway, goodbye, and enjoy the film if you do choose to watch it!

INCREDIBLY Funny Video




Yeah, err... sorry I haven't been posting for a while, despite the fact that it is now the holidays (yay!). I've just been quite busy. Anyway, just now, I have found an incredibly funny video off YouTube. It is about Star Wars but it doesn't matter if you have seen the films before or not, really. It is just soooo funny. The film is suitable for all, the rudest part of it being the title: Darth Vader Being a Smartass.

My Top Gaming Sites - FreeOnlineGames




Hey, it's that time again. My next top gaming site is a place called FreeOnlineGames.com. It has a large variety of games, and also allows you to have videos and pictures on it, if you are a member (I am not, so I will not say anymore about it). By the way, don't ask why I'm angry...


My favourite bit about FreeOnlineGames.com, is the fact that it actually gives you the code, for putting their games on your website (or in this case - my blog). This is quite rare on websites, and usually when it is there, it is only on a minimal about of games. Alternatively, the website also gives you the code for linking to it, which is still good. Because of the game option, I have actually put a game on the blog, called: Ninja Rampage. (Warning: Does contain violence, blood, gore and death.)





These are the controls:
- Left arrow key to move left
- Right arrow key to move right
- Up arrow key to jump, as well as jumping onto walls to climb or jump off of them.


The point of the game, basically is to advance through the levels, killing your enemies (any other person) on the lesson. If they see you, you lose points, and they might kill you. Just a warning: watch out for traps. Good luck, and have fun playing!

CSSBytes...



Alright then. CSSBytes, I'll admit that sounds a bit random, maybe a bit puzzling and/or crazy, but nevertheless, it is the name of my new blog. Don't worry though, the log here is still here to stay. CSSBytes is something completely different. Basically, it is a blog which will give you advice and tips on CSS every post. It has only just started, so if you want to know about CSS (and a little about HTML), the things that make webpages, like my blog, then keep checking back at it! Here is the link to it: cssbytes.wordpress.com/. Remember to bookmark it, as well as this blog, and keep visiting both!

Just One Away...




Yes, I am just one Pokémon away from completing my Pokémon Sapphire Pokédex. I am just so tantalizingly close, it's horrible! I desperately want the Diploma (a prize you receive for completing the Pokédex. There is only one thing that stands in my way - a Cradilly. I got Lileep traded to me, but then I gave it back. Oh, how I wish I didn't do that... Anyway, I'll tell you if (hopefully when) I complete it.

My Top Gaming Sites - Neopets




Yep, it's a new feature on the blog, although it won't take as long as my top ten Pokémon one, don't worry. This one is just a little help for anybody who is looking for an online gaming site. If you have any good ones, tell me and I might post them on the blog. Anyway, here's the first one:



Neopets:



Yes, it's Neopets, that great site which you really should make an account on. There are quite a few good games on here, all of them with instructions to help you out. The game range is a bit limited, seeing as all of the games are Neopets related, or a sponsor submitted game, but they seem to manage to get enough. I will now walk you through a few...















Hasee Bounce


This is quite a clever game, that involves two Hasees (petpets) jumping up and down on a seesaw to collect donutfruits. Collecting donutfruits gets you points, and the better the donutfruit, the larger amount of points you'll get from it. There is a sixty-second time-limit, but by collecting special letter-shaped fruits, to spell the word Hasee, you gain back twenty seconds of that time. You have to avoid anything other than fruit though, or you will become incapable of retrieving fruits for a few seconds of your precious time. It is a fun and easy game, once you get the hang of it, well worth you trying it out.



Wingoball


This is basically a puzzle game, where you have to throw your wingoball (it's just an ordinary, small red ball really), avoiding all of the obstacles, to get past the finish line on the other side. Many gnomes try to get in your way. Green-hatted ones will deflect your ball away, usually pushing it out of play. Red-hatted ones take control of your ball, minimizing it and almost certainly forcing you to throw again. There are also natural obstacles, which your ball just bounces off of, which you usually have to use to your advantage. There is a thirty-second time limit for each level, but usually you complete each level with buckets of time to spare. I have completed it once, and I believe there are about 22 levels. If you get good at it, it can be a high-scoring game.



Mynci Beach Volleyball


This game is great for having a bit of fun. Basically, it is a game of beach volleyball, where you have to knock the ball over the net, trying to make sure that your opponent can't send it back to you. There are so many rounds, and you win them by getting twelve points before your opponent. Obviously, as you progress through the game, your opponents get tougher. I may be rubbish at this game, but it still really fun, the only thing letting it down is the fact that it is side-on, reducing the games 3D look, but that is to make it easier. The best thing about it, is that it can be played by two players.




Actually, now that I think about it, I want to go and play some of these games, to earn myself quite a few neopoints in the end. Keep checking out the blog, because new game sites will be coming up. Goodbye!

Software & Eragon




Firstly, yes I know, that was probably the worst possible blog post title ever done, or at least the most random one, but still, basically this post is exactly what it says on the title.

So, for the software. I found this piece of software called CSSEdit. As you might think, it well, edits CSS. I have basically been messing about with it for a while, and, I guess that's it for the software.

As for Eragon, I watched Eragon on DVD, just to see what it is like, because I never got a chance to see it when it was out. To be honest, I'm not impressed. I haven't read the book, but I still think that the film was.... rubbish. I sure hope the book is better. -___-

As yuo can tell, I've been having such an exciting week...
