X-Box 360 vs PS3: Modern Warfare 2 best comparison ever for Modern Warfare 2!!!!!!!


I wonder which is better to play modern warfare 2 on, the X-Box 360 or the PS3? How would you feel when you are playing a game you know well. You are just about to win. You are all excited, your heart is racing, and you are moving your character as fast as you can. You go to the spot where you know the information is to win, and it isn't there. This is how it is to play Modern Warfare 2 on the PS3 and not on the X-Box 360. Personally I like the X-Box 360 better and I bet you would also.
They do have some similarities. They both have the same characters and with both systems you are able to play with other people over the internet. The basic game play is the same between both systems. If you know how to play the game you can jump right in and play it on either system.When playing with other people online the PS3 has an internet rate of failure of 91.3% per game center critics. I wouldn't like that at all. The results of game play vary each time you play. For example, the enemy intel is not in the same place it should be. The graphics on the PS3 are horrible. You can't see the subtitles in the campaign or in a cut scene. Instead of achievements the PS3 has 51 trophies and they don't have much information on how to get a trophy. The storyline on the PS3 is not the original story for modern warfare 2 from the original modern warfare game. The only positive attribute of the PS3 is that it can play Blu-Ray and the X-Box 360 cannot.Now I've saved the best for last. The X-box 360 has an internet failure of .02% per game center critics. I think this is the main reason for playing modern warfare 2 on the X-Box 360 and not the PS3, if you play online with other people. The game play for the X-Box 360 always has the same results. The enemy intel is always in the right spot. The graphics for the X-Box 360 are much better than the PS3. I would choose them over the PS3’s any day. You can see the subtitles in the campaign and in cut scenes. There are only 50 achievements and they are all described in clear statements. Also the storyline is the original storyline for Modern Warfare 2 from the original modern warfare game.When I am playing Modern Warfare 2 my heart is racing and I am trying to complete my objective quickly. When everything is where it should be each time, and the game is stable and does not fail and I can make my objective I feel such a sense of accomplishment! That best describes how it is to play Modern Warfare 2 on the X-Box 360. Frustration over finding things which are in different spots each game play and having the game fail best describes how you feel playing Modern Warfare 2 on the PS3. So I think everyone would make the same conclusion. Playing Modern Warfare 2 on the X-Box 360 is definitely the way to go!

Alaska The Wild


During the summer I went to Minnesota to go all the way to Alaska. I went to an amusement park while I was in Minnesota and I was excited. Then I went on a plane for the first time in a few years. It was a very long and boring flight. My sister and I entertained ourselves on the plane by talking about the wild life we would see in Alaska. We read about the “big five” animals in Alaska, caribou, grizzly bears, wolves, moose, and Dall sheep. We argued about which one we wanted to see first. I wanted to see the grizzly bears and my sister wanted to see wolves. We argued even after we were in Alaska until my parents made us stop.

The beginning of my trip was extremely dull. After a few days it was enjoyable and exciting.
We went to this diner. They had burgers, sea food, pancakes, Pepsi and Coca Cola products. I really enjoyed the delectable food.

I said, "This food is so great!"
My Mom said, "It was only OK."
My Dad said, "We should go to Denali National Park."

We all agreed to that. So we got done with breakfast, paid, and got in the car.

The second we got into the car my sister and I began to argue again.

She said “Wolfs are the best and we will see them first.”

I responded by saying “Grizzly Bears are really cool, powerful, and easier to spot, we will see them first.”

We went back and forth almost the entire time. We were looking out the window with our binoculars trying to see wildlife. We kept building up the anticipation and hoping to find an animal. Personally, I just wanted to see my animal first.

You can only drive 14 miles into the park. We drove the entire 14 miles and still did not see anything. We were still arguing and hoping to see our animal. We turned around and drove for what seemed like a long time. My sister and I felt very dejected.

Then my sister said, "I needed to stretch my legs."

So we stopped at a look out area near a field. There were other people there. The field was huge and beautiful. There were different color greens in the grass and trees. It sloped downward toward a glistening stream. My sister was still using her binoculars trying to see wildlife. She kept teasing me that we would see her wolf first. I was running around having fun when it happened.

All of a sudden my sister said, "I saw something move out in the field."
I then saw what it was. It was a big grizzly bear! I had won! The bear was Huge and muscular. It looked like it was walking slowly but it covered a lot of ground as it walked. A cub was walking with it and looked little next to its mother. There brown coat looked very thick and I could see why they could live somewhere cold like Alaska.

My Dad said, “Get the camera.”

My sister took pictures while my Dad camcorder. Then, all of a sudden, we realized how close the bears were getting to us. I was very scared at that point.

My Dad said, "Quickly get in the car."
We did as he said. We then quickly drove away.
I said "That was scary."

Then I remembered to let my sister know I had won.

We did get some great pictures of the bears. Then we went back to our cabin and watched T.V. for a very short time. There were only two channels so we decided to go out and build a fire to roast marshmallows. That was a lot of fun and scary! We even had fun pouring water on it and watching the steam when we were done.

It was funny the next day when it began to rain and the fire warning sign still showed Very High. We were on a way to a tour of Denali where you can go farther into the park. On the tour my sister was still mad at me because I had won. This did not stop her from continuing to use her binoculars constantly looking for animals. About half way through the tour we were stopped at a lookout area. My sister would not even get off the bus she was so mad. I was outside with my Mom and Dad and a person on the tour seen it. It was a Wolf!!!! I ran back onto the bus and yelled for my sister. She thought I was kidding but she didn’t want to take any chances and ran off the bus.

There was a shady forest area on the other side of a river. The river was so clear you could see the rocks on the rivers bottom. Right on the edge between sunshine and shade the wolf was lying down and trying to sleep. My sister stood on the edge of a bench and cam corded the wolf.

When we got back on the bus my sister and I were all smiles! We didn’t fight the entire rest of the trip. I may have won, and was glad I did, but we both got to see our animals! It was a GREAT trip!

I will talk about why it's my favorite movie and what someone elses opion. Will you decide by the end of this essay? Transformers 2 is the best movie of 2009. It's very suspenseful. Lots of people die and you don't know what will happen next. Transformers 2 has a lot of action. There are a lot of explosions and lots of robot parts go flying. Also someone might say Transformers 2 is not good. It's very loud and there are a lot of explosions. It has a lot of bad words. People swear in a lot of the movie. The movie is too violent. People die and there are a lot of explosions and deaths. Can you wait until it comes out on DVD? This is why Transformers 2 is my favorite movie and it's the best movie of 2009! You should go out and by it. It's a phenomenal movie!

The Way Man Kind Changed Forever

image from mhschool.com


How did man kind change forever? Well on July 20Th 1969. Man kind changed by 3 men and one space shuttle. They were the first men on the moon. Those men made history!
1 How do you feel about the moon landing
?
I think those men were brave to go up into space. I would never have the guts to go up into space. Even if I were young I would not go up.

2 How did you find out about the moon landing?
Well I think I found out by either watching TV or reading the news paper. My husband may have told me or I also might have heard it from my family.


3 What was your favorite part of the moon landing?
I guess it would have to be that the men came home safely. I was so happy that they didn't die. If they had died it would have been a dark day for people.

4. What could you hear when they went up into space?
I think you could hear a big boom because space ships make loud noises. I wouldn't like to be close.

5 Do you think the Moon landing is real?
Yes. Lots of people believe it was real. It was all over the news and they brought back rocks. I don't think the rocks looked like earth rocks.

6 How long do you think you could live on the moon?
Depends on if you have oxygen and shelter and other survival stuff like food. You would also need water and other things.

7 How long do you think it would take to get to the moon?
I think it would take a couple of days. Space ship's are fast but it would take a long time.

8 How cold do you think the moon is?
I believe it is super cold. I think you would need a lot of jackets. It's hundreds below zero on the moon.


9 How old is Neil Armstrong?
I would way he is approximately 79 years old.


10 Do you think the men were brave?
Yes. I thought they were so brave! There some of the bravest people I know of!




Why did man kind go up into space? Was it that they wanted to know everything or they just wanted to explore? Those men were brave. No one will forget that day that man kind went up to space.

The Day I Got My New Puppy!!!!!

Two weeks after my family came back from Alaska,we went looking for a dog. Me and my sister were so happy to look for dogs so we went to the animal rescue league. I had a good feeling about getting a puppy that day. My mom tried to to talk use into a cat. But me and my sister said ''no deal''. Because we rather have a dog because a dog is way more fun. I like cats and dogs too but I rather have a dog. We saw a cat room and a dog room. There was about 7 dogs in the front but we only look at one dog and her name was Runtie we looked at her to see if she was a good dog. But the people at the animal rescue league but she had allergies. But we didn't know what they were so we didn't get here. After that we looked at one more dog and my sister thought her name was piper so we got her out. She smelled like a garbage can I think she had her bath yet. So we messed around with her for about 15-20 minutes and then we came to a decision We begged my mom for the dog. So we got the puppy for 125 dollars which wasn't a bad price. We took her home and called her Miss Piper because she need a m for the first letter in her name. But on the way to petsmart she had little yellow accident in the car. So we cleaned it up. Then we went to petsmart to shop for her. Then we went home.
