Laggin'

No, not another 360 joke…

I realize that this blog has been laggin’ somewhat of content recently, and alongside all of us being lazy bastards, working on The Zulu Video, etc. We haven’t had much time to update you with shit. Keep in mind that because of the team (and more importantly my) laziness means that not all vids from mine and kiefer’s vimeo accounts will be posted on the blog, so check all the sources (ideally, subscribe to us on vimeo.)

More info soon, and check out the ZSK blog for more.

Like a Rock.

Well, my 360 E74’d yesterday. I rang up Microsoft and they’re sending a box for me to send it in. Apart from me being pissed off, I began to wonder why the xbox 360 was so unreliable. In replacement, I whipped out my original modded xbox, and I can’t believe how fucking solid this thing is. Seriously, all jokes about the size aside, It’s built like a house. How could Microsoft manage to fail at creating a console with BETTER HARDWARE? And then I realized… because Microsoft is almost strictly a software company (hence, MicroSOFT) they have no experience building a next gen console. The first xbox was a walk in the park for them, they built the thing like a PC, and it worked for them. But when the time came for them to step into the realm of advanced graphics and HD gaming, they didn’t know what to do. The original Xbox was always the best in terms of graphics in the sixth generation of consoles, but in the rush to keep that image and get their console out first, they forgot that they had to make the damn thing WORK.

Congratulations Microsoft, for making me seriously consider a PS3.

Although technically this isn’t QS related, here goes.

“The Zulu Video” is set to be the first video to come out of the recently reunited Zulu Skate Krew in five years. Featuring original members Kieran Mayers, Charlie Wilson, Lee Parker and Aamir Yousaf, along with new addition to the team, Ben Sullivan, and a shitload of friends footy. Now that ZSK is back together, an extension of the QS site is planned (quoteskateboards.co.uk/zsk), which will be up soon.

SKATE

Josh and I have organized a massive S.K.A.T.E tournament. We’ll select 20 skaters, and draw names to see who plays who. We’ll be adopting the new BATB2 rule: no sliding tricks across the ground your opponent popped.

The current list of people currently participating is:
Charlie Wilson
Joshua Mayers
Ben Surtees
Dan West
Kiefer Passey
Robert Denton

This list will be updated when more people agree to play.
