Macs, games, and football

I have to say, Apple seems a little desperate. Why oh why do they have to rely on degrading the opponent for their commercials? They seem to have to say that PC = bad and headaches, while saying very little else about themselves. It is almost as if they don't want to compare themselves, for fear that the truth of how they compare may be shown. Come on Apple, stop it with these stupid commercials, and instead be like what Microsoft has done, show your strong points.

Anyways, time to talk football! I love the way the Longhorns looked on Saturday. They played a strong game, and looked great doing it. I loved the first half. My only problem with this game was Colt's interception. Very sad.

I have also been hearing a lot about how people are chatting, saying that the UT/OU game was very sloppy. I know saying this now is a little late, by two weeks, but I don't care. If this was a SEC game, those same people would be praising it as a defensive battle, which it was. Sure, it was sloppy, but that is classic SEC style. The defenses were the stars of that show.

On to games! So, my school has a club called LAG. They meet every so often to play games, usually zombie games, and have tons of fun. Well, at the last one we played a game called Zombie Maze, a custom map on Halo 3. It is hilariously awesome. Pretty much the survivors have to make their way through three areas that are part of a giant maze and have to reach an exit door. There, one of the people has to face a keypad on the wall while the others carry on with the zombie killing while the guy facing the keypad puts down his controller and goes to do three tangrams. These three tangram puzzles represent figuring out the code to escape.

This is harder than it sounds. Even when we had seven people protecting the decoder, the tangrams killed us. those things are hard! The closest we got was finishing two after trying for ten minutes. It was pathetic looking. We never escaped.

If you own Halo 3, I seriously suggest getting this map, especially if you have many friends who like fun too.
