Lan Hackers is 1 year old!

Tuesday, December 13th, 2005

squatlowThis news is a little late, but It’s important.
Our favorite Halo 2 Clan – Lan Hackers – have been together as a group for 1 year as of December 9, 2005. That’s pretty notable considering Halo 2 itself has been out for about a year. All the members of Team Squat have been Pwning N00bs with Lan Hackers since it’s early days.

In the spirit of Red VS. Blue, Lan Hackers made a pilot episode of what is to become a machinima sitcom of sorts.

Bungie Fanfic and Poetry Contest

Monday, December 12th, 2005

So Bungie is having some kind of fan fiction and poetry contest as you might have guessed from the title of this post, you cheeky monkey you, and being that Tronsta is a poet and does know it, he’s made a post. Hopefully it pwnz and doesn’t suxx0r5, check it out.

UT2007 on PC and PS3?

Malcom - Unreal Tournament 2007

Okay, so if there’s any validity to this rumor, Unreal Tournament will be released for PS3 as well as the expected PC version. This decision is sure to have Unreal Tournament purists screaming and fainting like rich ladies in Polaner All-fruit commercials.

Does this mean that there’s truth to theories on PC gaming’s eventual demise?

My main question about UT2007 is: Will the 360 be getting any love?

Tronsta = FPS Doug?

fps doug 1FPSTronsta

I dunno, but there MIGHT be a slight resemblance between us. Though I think I have him on the “Stern Hardcore Pose” look. And don’t let me break out Le Tigra, it just wouldn’t be fair…

It’s basically FPS with better graphics…

FPS Doug

Okay, I know everyone’s already seen this once or twice, but I just had to post it.

My favorite line from this episode of Pure Pwnage is:

“My heart’s beatin, My hands are shakin, My hands are shakin, BUT I’M STILL SHOOTIN!.” Hilarious.

What’s your favorite Pure Pwnage moment?

(By the way, FPS doug reminds me of Tronsta with less hair.)

PSP Headset: First Impressions

psp headset

Squat Squat reviews the world’s first gaming headset for a portable system.

Search on google for information on the PSP headset, and you’ll be surprised by how little information you’ll find concerning it; Very surprising considering what an anticipated accessory it’s been. From the very second most people heard the word “online” in relation to the PSP, we’ve wanted a headset to go with it.

The Game vs. The Bathroom

So don’t even act like you haven’t been in this situation before: you’re in the middle of an AWESOME game, and when I say awesome, it can mean either you’re playing the best you’ve ever played and/or you’ve reached a part of the game you’ve never been too and/or you finally got to fight the end boss in Leisure Suit Larry. You’re so into the game you don’t even release the growing strain upon your bladderrifics, or your bungcover, or your testiclots. But then, while a new level is loading, BAM! It hits you. You gotta go, and now.

Now, this is where many people differ, and everyone has their own ways of handling said situation. Here’s a few ways I’ve heard people handle The Game versus The Bathroom dilemma:

What’s Next for 360?

Wednesday, December 7th, 2005

I’m a big fan of Gamespy.com (shameless plug dat). I’ve been reading them for years and their reviews, for me, are 99% on the money. Anywho, incase you didn’t get that, that’s www.gamespy.com , muaha.

But yeah, they have some great write-ups and every so often I like to point some folks over to it, and this week they have some nifty little paragraphs on upcoming 360 games. Check it out here.

And what kind of Tronsta post would this be if I didn’t offer my own two cents on these upcoming games, ZOT!

What kind of squatter are you?

Face it, there are two kinds of people in this world…

Those who squat and those who get squatted.

Of course, who in this world DOESN’T get squatted? I mean really, you’d have to be the greatest Halo player in the Universe, and you’d STILL get cheesed out by that level 21’s nOOb combo. But ah, the squat. Some of us live for it. Some of us see a dead deer lying on the side of the road and we must fight with all that is holy and humane not to pull over and squat that thing. PWND LOLZ!!!!

But seriously, what kind of squatter are you? Here’s a short list of squats to get us started:
