What's the Deal wth all this Construction!?!?!

You know what I’ve been noticing a lot lately as I’m driving around; Construction and HOLY SHIT there’s a lot of it!  It seems to me that the City of Ottawa decided to do ALL of its construction this year. I know it has been a long time coming but they should have done it a while ago don’t you think??   Usually I don’t mind it cause it helps make roads a lot better & creating more jobs but this is getting out of hand.  It’s like everywhere you go now there construction.  It’s like driving through a war zone! It’s THAT BAD!

It slows down traffic, and causing everyone to take alternative routes.  Most areas you can’t even avoid it.  You have no choice but to go through it. You have to drive like an 80 year old who can’t see behind the wheel; Swerving away from bumps so that you don’t fuck up your car.  Sometimes it causes traffic jams.  You’re stuck there driving two km every few minutes and all you can do it wait patiently like saint while you are breaking your high score on Angry Birds! Sometimes they have to close down exits ramps on highways causing you to back track to where you have to be! It also causes damage to your car with all the bumps you take, the rocks scratching the paint off & chipping away at your window, and all that dust covering your car. It’s like driving around in the middle of Afghanistan.

I wouldn’t be surprise if you are late for work because of this construction, and you have an asshole boss that tells you that you should have shown up way earlier or take a different way in order to get to work on time.  Won’t that bring your piss to a boil to have your piece of shit boss show no concern of your dilemma. Buses are worse too. They are already slow and now it’s 10 times slower cause of construction. You mind as well just get off the bus and walk the rest of the way.  Why not bike you say???   Ya, I would like to see bike around a backhoe. 

Also, some of it seems pointless. Like the removal of the traffic circle all the way on Prince of Wales. WHY?  Doesn’t ease the flow of traffic and reduces the number of…you know…CAR CRASHES! What a selfish thing to do!  I mean…What were they thinking? Bottom Line, FIX THESE ROADS ASAP!!!!!  God damn it!!! And you know what's worse? You know what's really worse? Guess what? It wont be done until  a year or so....What a shit load of fuck! This has been another….Classic Insight!

Super Steet Fighter 4: The Arcade Edition

I love Street Fighter.  It’s my favourite series out of the fighting genera.  So when Capcom released Street Fighter 4 I was ecstatic!  Months went by and Capcom did an update with Street Fighter 4 adding new characters and better multiplayer, calling it Super Street Fighter 4.  Again, I thought this was cool since the last game was pretty awesome.  SSFIV was great; so you think Capcom is done updating this game.  WRONG!  Here comes Super Street Fighter 4:  The Arcade Edition.  Capcom is notorious for updating this series and milking it for all its worth.   Well, I`m here to discuss the latest installment; Super Street Fighter 4:  The Arcade Edition.  I already own a copy of SSFIV, So I`ll be discussing the DLC package.

Recently the Arcade Edition DLC was released; Adding 4 new characters, fixing balance issues, and adding more to the multiplayer features.  The new characters in this latest installment consist of Evil Ryu, Oni, Yun and Yang.  This brings the roster up to 39 playable characters.  The new characters are definitely some the best fighters to choose from.   Out of the four new characters I find Yang to be the best with his speed and target combos, he can do the most damage.  The same goes for Yun but I like using Yang.  Each new character has the animated intro and ending to their story modes just like the rest of the characters.  They added a few more features as well.  In the replay channel, they added an ELITE CHANNEL where you can view the replays of world class players so you can learn how to fight like they do.  In MY CHANNEL ADVANCE, replays can be both viewed publicly and saved.  Hosts can open a channel and play replays, and guests in the channel can save those replays to MY LIST.   They also added new titles and icons for the new characters which you can include on your online player card.

Now there are some down sides to this game as well.  As I mentioned before about the new titles and icons; they are unlocked the instant you start the game leaving less things to unlock.  Also they are no trail modes for any of the new characters and it also clearly states that they are not compatible in trial mode and reverts back to normal SSFIV.  I also found that these new characters are a bit over powered; especially online.  I also like to see more dialogue from the new characters during the battle with their respective rivals. 

Overall, this game is beautifully designed and the fighting is just awesome.  However, I like to see Capcom make a few tweaks in this game such as Trial modes for Evil Ryu, Oni, Yun and Yang.  Adding extra dialogue and balancing the new characters because they are just too strong.  Hopefully they will do it with a patch.   If you already have a copy of SSFVI you should download it.  Its only 1200 Microsoft points or; you can pick up a hard copy for 40$. My final verdict, I give this game a 7.5 outta 10.  It’s worth checking it out!
