R.I.P. Wayne Static [Static-X]

To the question about how he met his wife Tera Wray:

"Tera was modelling for Hustler on Ozzfest 2007. She brought me my shot on stage and told the audience she masturbates to me every day."


Sad times for all fans of Static-X. Wayne Static (†48) was found dead in his bedroom last Saturday morning. Not much details have been revealed, but he appears to have died in his sleep. The whole metal scene is making tributes and leaving the best of wishes to his family


Wayne with his band Static-X were pioneers of the so called Industrial Metal in the early 2000's. They called my attention back in the day when I was starting to listen Metal, they were one of my first favourites with bands like Disturbed or Coal Chamber. I haven't stopped listening to them since I first heard Wisconsin Death Trip... damn that song is awesome.


He was about to play tomorrow in Denver with Powerman 5000, another band I've been listening for ages. I hope they make a worthy live tribute on stage.

All who knew or listened to him will miss him and his music.

"RIP WAYNE.... THIS IS SO SAD. TOO MANY MUSICIANS ARE DYING FROM OVERDOSES. I'M SERIOUS, ADDICTION IS REAL AND TAKES FOOLS OUT. NO ONE IS INVINCIBLE. SO GLAD I LIVE A SOBER LIFE TODAY. THE NUMBER OF FRIENDS I HAVE LOST TO ADDICTION IS CRAZY. IF YOU ARE STRUGGLING WITH ADDICTION, GET SOME HELP BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE. I KNOW DRUGS AND PARTYING ARE PART OF THE "rock n roll lifestyle," BUT DAMN HOW MANY MORE GOTTA DIE? FUCK THE LIFESTYLE, I WANT LIFE! SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE, WAYNE..."

Transition to Controller [Rocket League]

Image
Switch to controller already! Okay so, I'm finally doing it. I've been playing Rocket League since its release back in summer 2015 and I've been using my keyboard and mouse for input ever since. I was Gold in Season 1, Shooting Star in S2 and All-Star in S3, but my progress in this last season really took a halt. I began to notice the limitations of the hardware I was using and after a long time thinking about it, I decided to dust off my XBONE controller, reset my muscle memory and start again from the bottom of the leaderboards. I want to share what I've learnt and, if someone wanting to transition over to controller is reading this, show you what you'll probably have to go through.

The End

At the end of the experiment, you will be baked, and then there will be cake. I feel equally sad for leaving and proud for the things created. It has been quite the long run but it's time to end it. I've entertained, helped and informed people through monthly contributions to the gaming community, and also helped myself to understand games and gamers while teaching myself some English along the way. This has been my greatest project ever and it was a blast. It all began mid February of 2014. I thought about creating my own website many times but never really went through with it, until I found out about how easy it actually was when checking out Google's Blogger. The enthusiasm was quite palpable as I was writing my first entry on this blog : Diary of gaming awesomeness? Holy shit I have so much time to waste on this!! LETS DO THIS! At first I didn't really have structure or fixed idea about what I wanted to write, so for the first few months I just posted...

The Division Post-Review

Warning! You are now entering a contaminated zone! In about three weeks Titan, Stealth and I must have put around 250h collectively into this game. We took our time to level up, played in the Dark Zone for quite a bit before reaching level cap and spent most of the time maxing out our stats for the level we were in. It always went like this; play story quests and side missions until you level up, get excited for being able to equip that gun or armour you had put aside until you reached the necessary level, start window shopping from vendor to vendor to see if they sell any piece that has like +2 of something you're looking for and then test your equipment in the Dark Zone. But aside from bigger and bigger numbers, what else does this game have to offer? This is our experience.
