The (Unbiased) Xbox LIVE awards.

Ahoy followers and welcome to my humble abode, Now it's been a while since I posted properly on here so I'll just jump straight on in...XBOX LIVE AWARDS of course conducted by myself, basically it's a Monday evening and I'm bored so I've got my own online Oscars going on here, before I start i'd just like to say the nations Ive chosen aren't the ENTIRE gamers from that country. let's begin..

1. Nation with the most gamers under the age of 13:

- Well I hate to say it but it's jolly old Great Britain, Yeah America, Canada etc have their own selection of pre-pubescents but in all my experience on LIVE the UK has the most, (and that's not because I'm on a UK server) bad play Britain you're letting yourself down.

2. Nation with the worst attempts at insults.

- Do I even need to say? The winner is of course The United States! with nearly 100% of it's Xbox LIVE population completely unable to string together put down, snipe or insult. Shame on you America you'd think your renowned welfare and education system would have payed off but instead you INSIST on repetitively stereotyping each nation with the same boring description each time, sort it out.

3. Nation which receives the most abuse online.

- Poor old France that's who! They receive abuse from both sides of the Atlantic, In a game as soon as a player is known to be French both the British, Americans etc barrage the poor fella with "EWWWWW YOU'RE FRENCH YOU GARLIC SURRENDERER!" usually the Frenchman doesn't reply (mainly because he has no idea what's going on) It really is terrible and one day they will rise up and go all ninja on yo ass.

4. Most Racist Nation

And yet again its America, Te land of opportunity!...(To be a inbred with no morals) the one nation populated by redneck white supremacists who answer to Billy Bob and don't like anyone who isn't All American. Now it's not all of them but a disturbing amount at that! You come across middle class teenage Americans who can't stray away from "British Faggot" mainly because it requires increased brain activity to do so, and the Canadians receive a brunt of it, with Yanks saying "Say about!" and "eh?" letting yourself down USA.

5. Most Racist UK Country

Well it's England and no I'm not being biased because I'm Welsh, and no it's not all of them but a LOT at that, as soon as the accused hear either a Welsh, Scottish or Irish accent they ascend into Richard the FUCKING Lionheart mode and hurl abuse just because they're not English, bad form England.

6. Most over patriotic nation.

Well many of you may think it's America but in all honesty the Yanks don's shove it in your face like depicted on TV, in fact its the Scots! You mention anything about not being Scottish and they turn into William FUCKING Wallace and go on about how anyone who isn't Scottish is a homosexual. Infact It's not a problem really if anything it's quite hilarious. Well played Scotland.

Europe According to Britain

Now us Brits try and set ourselves as far away from our Trans-Atlantic cousins as possible but when it comes to geography and stereotyping we're not that much better, but we're miles ahead. ;) enjoy :)

Bored Wednesday Nights

Alright guys! Now I was very bored this evening so I decided to design my own "The World According to..." map, this one is America, only took me about 20 mins, please click to enlarge and let me know what you think ;) I may add a few more because they're quite fun to make :)

The past few weeks.

Evening all! It's been a while since I last posted on here! (a few weeks at the most!) and as you've probably guessed by my extensive usage of exclamation marks I'm in quite a good mood! Don't ask why it's just one of those days.

But in the time I've been away dwindling around I have managed to fix my own Xbox without having to pay Bill Gates an extortionate amount. And visit Moscow!. So my Xbox was playing up (meh) not an uncommon sight, and the bloody contraption wouldn't read any discs, no matter how much I exhaled like an unfortunate asthmatic on both the discs and the drive it just wouldn't comply, so...I did the unthinkable (and please don't judge me) I considered buying a new console, and I bet you're thinking "Oh Mikey it's ok you can buy a new Xbox" but no! I was actually considering for a few days buying perhaps I don't know...A BLOODY PS3! now before you recoil in horror clutching your crucifix with the "POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU" It was just a thought, but I've dedicated the last 5 years of my gaming "career" to Xbox and it won't end there, so I decided to fix it myself, (luckily the warranty ran out in 2008, so I wasn't losing out).

HORROR

So, I dismantled my precious box of x-ness, and made my way to the DVD drive (following a very helpful tutorial on YouTube here's the link >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnYETi73Vbs) Now when I got into the bowels of my 360 I noticed a VAST, HUGE, MASSIVE (Insert extra word to emphasise largeness) of dust collecting in the fan and around the internal components. So I got my trusty hoover and cleared that s*** up! then... I broke into my DVD drive to find more of this fluffy devil inside and yes I got the old hoover out and did the same, then I cleaned the CD laser with a cotton bud dipped in aftershave...yeah aftershave! Something with a high alcohol content (vodka, nail varnish remover etc) and re assembled it AND IT WORKS FINE! It even reads discs which I thought were obsolete from two years ago! (I enjoyed a lengthy 3 hours on CoD4 ;) so if you're having the same problem do the same! if you're warranty hasn't expired of course.

And...I also to do with my college course visited Moscow, Russia! Which is very different to your usual Spain or Greece I must say, I went on February the 7th for a few days (Now I'm not going to go into too much detail because someone talking about one of their holidays is perhaps the most tedious experience ever) I went during the Russian winter which if I might add IS A REAL F****** WINTER! I went to the famous red square in all my wrapped up thermals shizz and the temperature was a cool -26 Celsius which is abysmally cold, I got frostbite on my chin and nose, (obscure places I know) but I bought a traditional Russian hat and that kept me warm! I went to Red Sqaure, The Kremlin and of course I went to see the tomb of Vladmir Lenin, you know the guy who's been dead for over 90 years but they still keep his body on display. And of course I brought back some Matroyshka's (The Russian Dolls) and some classic Vodka with a kick like...well Russian vodka? This is just a quick summary I'll put a few pictures below.

Mikhail Vladovich, Dont laugh! Everyone wore them!
