Meet Someone New!

Donut THX 1138 (otherwise known as "Councilor 'Nodotee" or just "Barfbag" =D) is the distinguished community member of the week! Although here for only two or so months, he is already one of the most (un) respectable community members here! *Donut kicks RR* I mean...the most venerable all-mighty...*Donut walks away*. But...I mean...he's so ugly he has to wear a mask even when he's on the Internet (see left). Never mind. =D On a more serious note, he is the esteemed founder of the Covenant of Halopedia, the first and largest political group ever on Halopedia! He also has seven awards (the fact that RR has been here for like 7+ months and only has like 9 awards is inconsequential because Donut is...unkewl =D) and over 2600 edits! Woohoo! You can speak to this esteemed up-'n-coming youngling-OWOW!-I mean, okay, okay! You can speak to Donut at his talk page!

Randomo!

The Oracle's Review for Rainbow Six Vegas®, Xbox 360

In the new tactical first-person shooter, you're Logan Keller. Who said so? The game did, so shut up and listen! =D Logan Keller is a former U.S. Army Delta Force commando, but was recently transferred to the counterterrorism unit RAINBOW, a special operations force with almost unlimited jurisdiction. When the very bad and unkewl international terrorist and leather girl Irena Morales attacks Las Vegas, you and your three-man team are dispatched to a bewildering number of real life locations - Calypso Casino, Vertigo Spire, Dante's Casino, Las Vegas University, etc...to take out the bad guys and restore justice to, ironically, Sin City. =D

  • Gameplay: 10 - Sweet! You kidding? The entire game screams corybantically at you - TACTICAL and REALISTIC! Add to that the 40+ weapons you can wield...
  • Graphics: 9.5 - Excellent. Beautiful lights, character textures...
  • Campaign: 10 - Exceptional. Multiple hostage situations, rapelling, suppressors do things, multiple avenues of attack, infrared imaging, flash-bang grenades...and the high you get when you rescue a family of three from a host of terrorists. =D
  • Multiplayer: 9.0 - Meh, it's okay, with a severe disinclination against newer players. It gets kinda old after awhile, too.
  • OVERALL: 9.6 - An excellent modern tactical shooter, in the vein of Tom Clancy.
