dHey guys, I made up some budget gaming PC’s.  Ones a 300 dollar version, and ones a 400 dollar version.  Each one has a decent video card and 4GB of ram.

The first one is the 300 Dollar version.  I’ll post its specs below.

You can build this computer here for $314.89

Next is a more higher performance computer, but more pricey.  I’ll post the specs bellow.

You can build this computer here for $403.84

Hope this came in handy, if i get the money to buy one of them i’ll post benchmarks and screenshots.

*Note – Both of these computers come with NO operating system or COA ( Part of the reason there cheap ), but hey linux is just fine

Zombieland – IMDB page

I’ve decided to start reviewing movies for the site.  I may not do current ones all the time, i want to start by going back through all of my favorites.  So i may go way off the boat with some of these.  But zombieland is pretty current and a great movie, so without further ado heres my review.  That wasn’t supposed to rhyme…

This is my first movie review for the site so im not sure how im gonna lay it out but i geuss i’ll start with plot, move onto a general overview, then rape it up and end it with a couple scores.

So the plot to zombieland is pretty simple, there is a pleague that infects people, then they infect other people by biting them, after infected they soon turn into zombies.  Fairlly basic zombie plot but the zombies get smarter in this movie and they start attacking at certain times, like when your in the restroom.  The main actor ( Jesse Eisenberg ) creates a list of things that he does to keep himself alive, such as checking the back seat, and other things like that I don’t remember the whole list off the top of my head.  He meats up with another dude who then meats up with two checks and forms a 4 person team which eventually gets to an amusment park and fights a horde of zombies.  The story goes into alot more detail then that but i dont want to spoil it for you

In general it was a good movie.  It had plenty of funny moments, good fights, and emma stone is HOT.  It didn’t have any moments that were supposed to make you cry but it toke ALOT of weird turns throughout the movie, but again i don’t wanna spoil to much of it for you.   Overall the movie was fantastic and i Highly recommend you go see it, so i guess this will wrap up my first movie review hope you guys enjoy it and i’ll put some scores at the bottom.  Did i mention that emma stone is really hot?

Action/Fighting
4/5

Funny
3/5 ( it was funny but not Hangover funny, hmm theres an idea for another movie review)

Overall
4/5 ( it was a really good movie (=)

-Hawksprite out, peace-

*two things to note, the image was from the G4TV site, and i just wanted an exuse to put a picture of emma stone (HOT) on our site (=

I finally beat burnout paradise and I mine as well post a review on it.

The game was allot of fun, the driving mechanics and how the game looked were both great, although i found myself getting very angry at how easy it was to wreck, i still had allot of fun playing it.  The cars were split up into 3 main types.  Aggressive, speed, and stunt.  Each car has Speed, Boost and Strength.  The boost works deferentially on each car but the speed and strength work about the same on all three types.  The Stunt cars are more for turns and doing tricks, speed is for strait away racing, and aggressive cars are hard to take down and can wreck other cars easily.  I personally like stunt cars myself.

The controls were easy to use, they were standard car game controls, you had a Junk Yard you could go to, to change your car with other cars you had unlocked as you went along.  There really wasn’t a story.  You had a license that upgraded every sertian amount of wins you got, Each time you upgraded the next upgraded required alot more win to get.

The online game play was fun, i liked the way they handled it and it was easy to get into an online match and be entertained for an hour or so.  Overall i really liked the game and would recommend buying it, i belive its 20 dollars on the Xbox live Marketplace so it doesn’t cost much at all.

4 out 5
Merry Christmas (=

Run down of the game play:

So here’s my run down of the game play in our game.  You have a base and the enemy has a base, your objective is to destroy there base and there objective is to destroy yours.  As levels progress the enemies will get more units and there units will get stronger, throughout the battles you will get money so you can upgrade and get stronger also.  If your base falls then you lose and have to restart the level, if you destroy the enemy base you gain a level, score, and money.  You can upgrade you’re units, upgrade health, upgrade attack, unlock new units, and improve all the units you have and unlock.  The objective of the game is to destroy the enemy and upgrade so that you can keep upgrading, hope you like the game (=

I recetlly beat assains creed 1 for the xbox 360.  I wanted to go back and finsh it off before i went on to assasins creed 2.  So here’s my review for it.

Gameplay:  The game play of assassins creed 1 was supposed to be a fast paced open world free running assassination game, they only managed to accomplish a couple of these things, one being Open world and the other being an assassination game.   It had alot of free-running game mechanics but it didnt pull it off very fluentlly, you found your self stuck or having no where to go alot of the time.  It was fairll open world but i didnt like the travell between citys, after it gave you the option just to skip to other citys it wasnt so bad, but in the begging where you had to ride you’re horse all around the damn place looking for the entrance, that wasnt so much fun.  When it came to combat it seemed to do a decent job, but you really couldnt switch between weapons very well in the middle of the fight, which could really screw you over.  But the throwing knives were kick A XD

The enemy AI was unique, they didn’t seem to want to attack you but wait for everyone else to there job for them, this made it mad easy to take down multiple opponents.  All you had to do was hang back and counter everything that got thrown at you.  Although it had some fun stealth assassination mechanics built in, although sometimes it didn’t do what you wanted it to and you found you’re self surrounded by 40 guards in a corner.

Story:  The story line it’s self was fine, at least the medieval times one.  Allow me to explain, the game is based around the fact that you are an assasins trying to win back you’re rank in a medival times, you do quests for you’re master, etc.  But for some reason they thought it would be a good idea to introduce an animus, what’s really happening is you’re an assasin in the future using an animus to decode you’re ansestors memory through DNA.  You’re not really an assasin, you’re just re-living the events.  I can see where they were going with this, but it would have made a more enjoyable game if they would have just let you be an assasin throughout the entire game.

Summary:  Overall the game was repetitive and a lot of the times annoying, but it was still a fun game.  I believe it’s like 20 bucks at game stop now, so if you haven’t already you should really just pick it up to experience it, epically if you’re planning to buy assassins creed II.  So i’m gonna give this one a 3 out of 5.  Happy gaming (=

Welcome to the new hawksprite.com. We’ve dropped the drupal framework and upgraded.  Some of the changes you’ll notice are:

1 I didnt migrate all the posts, only the ones that had any sugnifigance
2 Anybody can post comments, without logging in.
3 All old comments and users are gone.

I did all of these things for a reason, hope you like the new site (=

I’ve decided to put together a list of the top 5 Linux Distro’s. This list is not made out of opinion, I’ve gone around to various websites and looked around at what they said was good and the reason for it. Then based of that information put together the top 5 Distros.

List:
1st. Ubuntu
Ubuntu is probablly one of the most well known Distros. And theres a reason, it’s easy to use and if you’re a begginer this is a great Linux Distro to start with. It has plenty of packages and good security.

2nd. Linux Mint
Linux mint is very similar to Ubuntu. It supports Ubuntu repository’s and has a better out of the box experience. Linux mint also looks great! And is very stable and secure.

3rd. OpenSUSE
OpenSUSE has a reputation of being one of the most secure Linux distro out there. (Trustix is probably the most secure). It was developed by novell and is easy to use but powerful at the same time.

4th. Mandriva
Mandriva is a powerful and stable operating system that has set the standard for the linux graphical interface. It is easy to use and good for Beginner’s and Professionals alike.

5th. Debain
Debain is a really great Linux Distro, it only came in 5th because it lacks security ( it has great security just not enough) But it’s still in our top 5 list because of it’s packages. Debain has the Biggest Repository’s as far as packages go. If there’s a linux package you need, Debian Probably has it.

And that concludes my list, hope you enjoy it (=

It appears that billy gave up on his math site:

http://bmuzikaclac.wordpress.com

He never updates so im gonna assume he gave up.

So, i’ve been lazy with the posting so im gonna start back up again. I’ve decided to give you guys a history lesson on something i though was neat. 4 Years ago on October 6th hawksprite was founded. At first we had a no founds, so we were stuck with shaty free hosting providers. We bounced around but never found something that fit our needs, until we got our own sever of course, hawksprite was spreading, but not at a very fast rate. I decided to go back to these old sites to see if there still there, they are. At the bottom of the post i’ll post links. We almost never closed our old hosting accounts and left the free one’s running old and busted version of hawksprite. Although some of the sites were altered over time to tell users where to go ,( hawksprite has moved! go here for current site ), the sites where still there. I found it interesting to go back and look at our old posts and reviews. I hope you will to.

Hawksprite ruins links:
1. Hawksprite Webs
2. Hawksprite Synthasite
3. Hawksprite No Fee Host
4. Hawksprite L4g
And finally the oldest remains left ( that i could find) of hawksprite.
Hawksprite 110mb (from 2005)

There are other sites out there that i will add in the future but this is all i could find for now.
