Dante's Inferno

So I've played a demo of the recently released Dante's Inferno and I must say...I'm speechless [To say the least...].  Hmm, that voice sounded vaguely familiar [I'm offended, Inf...].  Nick [Yes...]?  Wow!  How the fu©k did you get there [Where???]?  That's not important, just tell me how [I don't know...].  Well, you're an awful lot of help [Hahahahaha!!!]!  Stop laughing [... ... ...]!  Unlike Mr. Marshall, you at least, know your place [Bite me, Inf...] [Me too, jack@ss...].  You're double-teaming me?!  That's low!

I was on PSN playing Modern Warfare II last night kicking some @ss while simultaneously getting my @ss kicked [Because Sony fails...].  That's unlike you, Mr. Marshall [Because I'm not Mr. Marshall...].  Figures [Someone call me???].  Lord, help me!  You guys need a way for me to tell you two apart [How about bells???]!  Not your best guess, Mr. Marshall [Okay, I have an idea...].  Yes, Nick [You think in words anyway, so how about color coding???]?  Brilliant!  Mr. Marshall, why do I even keep you around [... ... ...] [Hahahahaha!!!]?!

Okay, so I played Tekken 6 with a few guys from my building yesterday and it was a magnificent--[Wait, weren't you supposed to review Dante's Inferno???]...Yes!  Dante's Inferno [Hahahahaha!!!]!  Don't laugh at my expense, young man [... ... ...] [I hate you both...].  I don't recall speaking to you, Mr. Marshall [... ... ...].  Deterring from the topic of discussion...AGAIN, Nick will be in orange and Mr. Marshall will be in blue [I'm not a pumpkin...].  I didn't offer you a choice [... ... ...] [Hahahahaha!!!].

So, Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm--[Dante's Inferno...]...Damn.  Thank you, Mr. Marshall [For what???].  For correcting me--[You can't even remember what color you made me?!!]...I apologize [You're not forgiven...] [Hahahahaha!!!].  This isn't going very well...at all.  Maybe I'm not getting enough rest.  I have been up until after 7 am the last few days.  I really need to change my sleeping habits.

Anyway, Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo: HD Remix--[Idiot...] [Hahahahaha!!!]...Again [Dante's Inferno, Jay...]?! *sigh*  Dante's Inferno...geez!  I wish I would stop doing that!  You two are going to have to be quiet for a while [... ... ...] [... ... ...].  Thank you.

The poem Dante's Inferno was something I've never had the pleasure of reading, however, many of my peers have given it high ratings.  The game Dante's Inferno seems to simply be an exploitation of Christian Templars.  Based on his uniform and the timeline of the game, Dante is obviously a Templar from the crusades.  This is wrong already.  To produce a religiously biased game for children of other faiths to get ahold of is grossly irresponsible.  If the Jewish people made a game and introduced it to the mass media market the other religious sects would explode with fury.  The Muslim people would suffer the same fate as well as the Buddhists, etc.

Yes, I do believe in freedom of expression but the makers of this game have taken advantage of a prejudice.  If no one else is allowed to do it, you shouldn't be allowed to either.  I have a sour taste in my mouth just thinking about a specific faith invading the homes of others uninvited for the sake of turning a profit.  Am I really wrong for addressing the influx of spiritual hustlers selling religion when THIS just happened?!

The controls are responsive and pretty accurate though, I have no complaint there.  The graphics are wonderful though the female forms are a little polygonal.  Visually this game is wonderful.  I can honestly say I loved the camera angles, use of colors, and rich and animated environments.  The concept of expanding your moveset with a tree of abilities is great too.  You have the ability to customize your Dante to best suit your play style making certain sticky situations...well...less sticky.

Other than that, this game is God of War with a Christian zeitgeist spin.  Zeus lightingbolts = Crucifix projectiles.  Even the air combo system is the same...and the controller set up.  Because I'm an avid God of War fan I found this game, including traps/puzzles and foes, very easy to conquer.  To be honest, not very much of this game was original at all save the customizable moveset.

Making the types of moves you learn reliant upon the decisions you make in the game [Good or evil...] was conceptualized by the makers of the Fable series.  Even the story, by description, sticks heavily to the script produced by the poem.  Keep in mind I am only going off what I've heard from my peers when I refer to the poem.

Overall: Hit it, quit it, forget it.  6/10 stars

My mind is mad deep and you just jumped in

Christ vs Christians

People kill me. I can't believe how many double standards I encounter each day.  You have people making statements they don't even believe themselves, people who have no respect for others but manage to muster the audacity to demand it.  Yes, modern Christian, I'm talking about you [Again...].

It took me years to learn what my Atheistic friend was trying to teach me.  He may not have used all the correct terms or quotes, but his point remained valid in spite of my protests.  Christians are destroying this world.  This group of people simply refuses to live like Christ [Hence the title CHRIST-ian...] while also refusing to accept the truths of their follies.

As a matter of fact, they refuse to accept many truths all together.  For example, many of them refuse to have sex believing it to be disgusting and wicked...abominable.  However, sex is necessary in order to reproduce and those same people enjoy the company of the babies born of those sexual acts.  If every human became Mother Teresa we'd be extinct [Brutal truth...] because God's ordinance was for us to bear fruit ourselves [That's why we have sexual organs...].

They also refuse to accept Christ and God are two separate entities.  Their argument is Christ being the voice of God, thus a representative of God's power, makes him God.  That logic is flawed at its very root.  I'm an older brother and the voice of my parents.  My parents speak and I see to it their will is done.  That doesn't make me the parent at all.  Christ is also the liason between God and ourselves [Big brother...], to be sent on a recon mission to recover us [Big brother...], and has been recorded carrying out two activities that PROVE the belief that Christ IS God wrong.

For fear of God turning my phone into a hydrogen bomb in my hands [That's not a joke...but it is funny...], I will not cite those scriptures.  I assure you, however, any fool capable of reading these words verbatim can see these things right there in that Christian bible [If you can find a version that isn't corrupt...].

Book of Genisis - God spoke as a unity and not an individual

"'Now, WE shall create man in OUR image,' And so, God created male AND female and saw it was very good."  The Mormons [Christians...] noticed this and rationalized that God obviously has a wife.  Based on the phraseology of these scriptures I agree.  This group of Christians were then nearly destroyed by those they call brethren. 

"History is written by the victor." - Winston Churchill

Obviously history is full of liars.  More truth is revealed each day exposing these liars for what they were and will forever be.  Many of those people were either Christian Templars or Christian royalty.  Faith doesn't produce skill...dedication does.  Just because you're good at something doesn't mean it was ordained by God, the REASON you are might be, however, but that's a discussion for a later date.

Templars started off defending pilgrims after taking the holy land surrounding the Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem.  They've manipulated history by justifying the siege with the appearances of thieves and rebels.  The truth is they took a holy land which didn't belong to them and suffered the consequences of those actions at the hands of other more deceptive men [King Philip IV of France...].  I'm speaking of the crusades, people.

The Templars invented banking to provide safe travel for the pilgrims they protected.  These citizens would deposit their valuables and receive a waver prior to traveling.  Once they reached their respective destinations they were able to withdraw their funds and enjoy their time abroad.  This marked the birth of the traveler's check, meaning, even nowadays the Templars are not dead.

Even though they faced defeat in physical and political battles for nearly a century they persevered and gained control of domestic and even foreign banking services for centuries.  That being said, they still managed a victory and wrote their own truth in the history books.  They were born of the Vatican [Catholic,  also Christians...] in Italy, a country formerly ruled by Constantine I hundreds of years before.  I don't think I need to continue with that piece of history.

The thing I find most intriguing is the Christian King James bible doesn't maintain consistency with proven human historical facts.  I also find it interesting how many people will disagree with these facts and the evidence to substantiate them, calling them lies created by evil men to destroy Christianity.  The truth is they WERE created by evil men to destroy freedom of spirituality.  The Christian concept is a wonderful fairytale, however, God created a real world with real people.  It's not your place to rule over and manipulate the wills and experiences of other people.

What your chosen ignorance prevents you from knowing is that King James was a perverted adulterer.  He had a wife and 2 mistresses and still cheated on them all.  He also had affairs with other men and had a bad habit of imposing conformity on other Christian peoples.  He retranslated the bible for the sake of forcing the ideal of divine right to rule as king on those who fell within the boundries of his kingdom.  So, I charge you, why should I study and believe the words of someone who's motive was to dominate the people without following his own example?

It seems, to me, that Christians have a long history of manipulating God's word to tip the scale in their favor.  Actually, the only GOOD Christians are crucified for being what they are...good Christians.  The rest attend super churches for financial gain and pay their religious leaders to give them a good show every Sunday [Which isn't even the Sabbath...].

Christians make strides to dominate this world and somehow only make it worse.  There's always a war, a cover up, a terrorist, a rumor, prejudism, halts in scientific development, and control issues.  When is enough enough?  If a woman is raped by her brother and forced to conceive a child she didn't want, why shouldn't she have the option to end the baby's suffering before it even starts?  You call it murder but I call it compassion.  That child has to be an abomination and face unimaginable hardships its entire life.  Its blood will be cursed by the sins of its father and other people will shun it from society.  The child will only have God and lament as it ages.  Is that fair?  Should that child be cheated out of a good shot at life?

Why should the mother have to face that horrible memory for the rest of her life?  She wasn't given an option and still isn't offered one, that isn't love!  That isn't what a God, I'd serve, would will on anyone!  That's ridiculous!  That's foolishness!  That type of twisted logic is what causes so many people to choose a life without any faith at all.

To crucify a man without faith who has endured years of misdirection is not fair.  In essence he's merely a martyr of today's society [A victim...].  He's a walking example of what happens to people who've had their channels to God cut off...a symbol of oppression.  It's not his fault and he shouldn't have to figure it out himself.  Making such criticisms of his character should be frowned upon especially when you have no knowledge of his or his family's background.  It isn't an excuse it's a beseechment.  This man is asking for guidance.

He drinks and does drugs to escape reality, he commits crimes to have a meal or to lash out against a prejudiced society, his words express his misery, and his attitude displays his lack of motivation.  He's broken by his circumstances and fighting an entire world alone.  No one cares for his well being, no one sheds tears for his sorrow, no one teaches him what he hasn't yet learned, and no one supports him when he has fallen.  This young man is a product of the world he's lost in.  This is the black man.

The black man has an illness and I seek to cure it...I once had this illness.  When others ignore him I shall reach for him and pull him from the depths of the depression he's drowning in.  When he speaks in ignorance I shall silence him and teach him what he does not know.  When all others betray him I shall be the only brother to fight alongside him.  I shall carry out the will of Christ and Muhammad and be his brother in the name of God and make him a king fit for any queen he chooses.  I will destroy his jealousy and make him my equal.  I will make him a man.

My mind is mad deep and you just jumped in.  Rest your burden on me, you may cry now.

Mark of the Beast

I probably shouldn't blog under the influence but I'm going to give it a shot anyway (laughs) [Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol...].  My troll is on point tonight.  I am nice and tipsy and in the mood to share a few thoughts.  My life is in shambles and, even worse, God has thwarted my attempt at crushing another proclaimed Christian man.  Yes, I have allowed my compulsive thinking and behavior to get the best of me.   Fortunately my computer crashed and God intervened, wiping my entire entry from my cache, thus preventing me from posting it [Apparently we use our understanding to bully the bullies...].

I'm not exactly sure if that was politically correct but I don't care.  I'd much rather be ostracized for telling the truth than die a liar.  Did you know Templars were real and even Christians hated other Christians?  Wow, that was random...as hell.  I shouldn't have said that for I may anger God for my disobedience.  They, meaning Yahweh, are probably running out of patience with me as I fail to grasp their point.  I really should learn to shut the f*ck up before I get flagged [Oh well...].

The truth is...I'm hateful.  I seek to change what I hate rather than destroy it because lying beneath hatred is love.  To have a hateful feeling is to maintain some sort of feeling for someone or something though the intended feeling is negatively oriented.  The thing is lack of concern is even uglier than hatred.  I'd much rather someone care enough to wish bad on me than someone not even acknowledge I exist.  That's how it truly feels to be alone and I know that feeling well.

I don't care who reads my blog or is offended by the things I say.  I hate most of those individuals anyway.  Why shouldn't I?  What good have those people been to me?  None whatsoever, however, they've been a sh!t load of bad.  They're prejudiced and belligerent, they're mean spirited and rude, they're closed minded and disrespectful, and they're just not fun to be around [Ahem...].  Okay, maybe I'm going a little too hard on them [What?!  No you aren't!!!].  You're confusing the drunk, Mr. Marshall...

"Sorry!" - Mr. Marshall

I've come to realize how much I'd rather be with God in Heaven.  To me, life on Earth is a trial rather than a kindness.  To be trapped here with these other...people is - [Inf!!!]...What [Careful...]?!  Careful?!  Why should I be?  They aren't careful, they're cowards!  They hide behind they're faith and make excuses for their actions, or lack thereof.  They dominate the world and yet thirst for blood and greater power!  They sneak, they lie, they cheat, they steal, they destroy, and then swear by God's ordinance their actions are permissible!

Religious bastards are poisoning modern society.  I, on the other hand, am spiritual but non religious.  I don't follow any particular faith though I try to study them all.  I've crushed those spiritually "inclined" and those not inclined to believe in anything.  I'm not arrogant though I maintain a sense of pride in my gifted knowledge and understanding.  Amazing how defensive and outrageously rude someone becomes when they begin a discussion they can't finish.  Suddenly they don't want to talk about it anymore.

This, of course, after they manipulate the texts into what they want them to mean or fall victim to the theoretical bullsh!t spewed by the self proclaimed prophet they hail (in actuality a FALSE prophet) [Called a pastor or any other popular religious leader...].  Religions were created to mislead spiritul cultures and use fear to control the people living within them.  They pass judgements on a person's right to live as if they are God though their texts say to let God and ONLY God be the judge.

It's heart breaking to live amongst a people you can't save.  It's depressing [I guess hatred in this instance is a natural reaction...]...this world is so weak.  Humanity is so far from reaching the next level I can't bear to watch.  I just want to sit in a corner and watch the show [Why not join the party???].  No.  I don't like dancing with ugly people [Ouch...]!

Hopefully I've offended millions of people this morning.  My mind is mad deep and you just jumped in.  Minimum IQ 140 to enter the water!

Lucky I'm Ready For Love, Music

I feel like I'm lacking in motivation as of late, yes, the intelligent thug is, once again, at a low.  Things aren't really going well at work, money is tight, and lack of funds have my personal affairs in ruins.  No matter how well I perform I can't seem to get ahead [He works hard, people...].  You'd think by now these hard economic times would be over but they aren't.

Honestly, I'm glad I've managed to make it this far but these trying times hardly seem worthy of the effort.  It's always easy to say, "Things could always be worse," but you're saying that to an over achiever.  I'm a man who thinks things could always be better...if you know the right people [True story...].

I find myself struggling to sleep at night with no one worried about how I'm doing until they hear my voice.  However, things tend to get worse before they get better because I'm not good at reaching out.  I haven't made any progress with my script because I've been busy working on this Haiti Relief Fund and dealing with problems at work.  It seems trouble always follows me to every new location [Like that kid in this comic called 666 Satan...].

I've decided to make a pact with myself...if things haven't progressed by the end of April I will destroy everything and start over.  This means the end of my rap career, quitting my job, removing myself from my other businesses, just starting from scratch.  Obviously my format isn't working anymore.

I've been out of work since Monday and I'm depressed about it.  I should be getting a new job by this weekend [I hope...] which would be more stressful but I'll make good money.  It pays to be able to return to reliable employers even IF they make you lose your hair.  Truth is, I love them though...in such harsh times they show me I truly do have friends.  Not that I have no other friends because I do, I just can't put all my eggs in a single basket.

In other news, my younger blood related brother just got a vehicle.  I'd like to say congratulations to Jeffery Marshall, my younger brother whom I'm very proud of.  We may not always get along but I still love him all the same.  For those who'd like to know, he'll be the first of the litter to finish college and with a degree I might add [no autographs ladies...].  I'd also like to ask all the Google Gurus to please respect his privacy, unless you're offering him a career in law or business and it doesn't involve a pyramid.

Moving on and cutting myself off, it's 5 am here and I've had the most beautiful epiphany of my life [And that is???].  I've somehow forgotten my purpose, the very reason God placed me on this Earth.  It's not about religion or politics...matching wits with other geniuses or belittling myself for those too closed-minded to see the beauty of their intelligence.  I was put here for my love of music.  The gift of musical talent was bestowed upon me so that I may make it.  That is my power.

I've let the political world of Hip Hop cloud my mind and darken my expressions.  It has worn away my spirit and deteriorated my soul.  As I've wasted a third of my life I am forced to submit to my initial programming...to enjoy creating the art.  I must accept my ability for what it is...me.  I pledge to put down these cartons of cigarettes, remove myself from the whiles of the world, and put my thoughts into song.

The passion I once lost has quickly and abruptly returned.  For my absence I apologize.

I've taken the liberty of adding some links to my reminders at the bottom of this post.  Listen to their passion...they truly believe what their singing.  Following their examples I shall share my gifts with you.  To start, a description is necessary.  Lyricism isn't my only talent...I have a voice I've hidden for years due to shame and lifestyle.

I've been discouraged by others and afraid my "surroundings" won't accept a gift I couldn't control receiving.  I lost my passion and turned my back on it viewing Hip Hop as my only outlet.  I was wrong.  Drake has shown me how weak an artist I allowed myself to become.  My past doesn't determine how I use my voice, my future does [Meditate on that one...].

Hello, world, I've returned...and this time I've brought my soul.  Have me whole or have me not.

My mind is mad deep and you just jumped in.

 Ready For Love

 Beautiful Surprise

 I'm Yours
