Thought Process of A Gamer: Cutterbups
Whats going on everybody, its the 1081 asshole back once again, yet its me Costa making my special appearance. I am proud to present to you another featured gamer check out Cutterbups, it really makes me proud to feature female gamers that can hold their own.

1. Tell us about yourself, where are you from?
Originally from central Alberta, Canada. But currently living in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada.
2. For me the first video game that turned me into a joystick junkie was Killer Instinct for the Super Nintendo. What title changed "it" all for you?
I have memories of playing my fathers Atari at a very young age and playing NES at my grandma's house. As she was a gamer too. Really as long as I can remember I've had a controller in my hand or been at arcades. But the game that absolutely got me hooked and obsessed with gaming would have to be Final Fantasy 6. Originally released in North American on the SNES as Final Fantasy 3.
3. What are some of your favorite games, what are your currently playing right now, what titles are you looking forward too?
Some of my favorite games would have to be Chrono Trigger, the Splinter Cell series (excluding Splinter Cell Conviction) and the Final Fantasy series.
Games I'm currently playing... LOL that seems to change on the daily. I recently just finished Super Meat Boy on Xbox 360, and will now be completing ilomilo along with the Halo Reach DLC. Which shouldn't take more then a couple days, and then I'll be back to figuring out what to play next.
Titles I am looking forward to playing would have to be:
BattleBlock Theater
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier
XCOM
Dead Island
The Secret World
There are others I just can't remember them at the moment.
4. I must applaud you for attacking the Gamecrush "sluts," what sparked that situation and how do you feel Gamecrush affects the image of female gamers?
Well to be honest I didn't "attack" anyone. I had a female follow me on twitter, I asked if she was "a real gamer, or a gamecrush gamer". From there we talked about our thoughts on the whole gamecrush site and people that use it and such. Out of nowhere one of the gamecrush "playdates" (as they like to be called) then attacked me by taking things I said out of context, then fueling the whole gamecrush twitter blast lol.
Gamecrush in my opinion is a negative on the gaming community. In all honesty it gives us real female gamers a bad rep. But also makes males look just as bad. Cause really the site wouldn't still be up and running if people weren't using it. I would like to add that there are male playdates as well and that is just laughable.
5. When your not gaming what else do you do?
When I'm not gaming I'm usually spending time with my boyfriend of 5 years, painting or drawing, listening to music, working out, or just watching friends game on gaming streams.
6. Is there anything else you would like to share with us
I'm just a huge nerd with a very positive outlook on life, that loves cute things, has a sailor's mouth and enjoys a challenge. I'm a fan of the odd and strange. I'm twitter obsessed, always laughing and I love cheeseburgers. lol ^_^

MCL is Back: Call of Duty Montage
I thought I made playing Black Ops look easy but these fellas make it look effortless. I have never seen someone take out a RC-XD with a tomahawk. Just check it out.
Death of a Popstar PS3 Theme
Granted I am a Microsoft fanboy, this is dope none the less. All PS3 heads snatch up the David Banner & 9th Wonder Death of a Popstar theme. If you don't have the album, get it NOW and support good hip hop.

Red Dead Redemption 'Liars and Cheats' DLC coming Sept. 21

On the heels of the June Co-operative Multiplayer release, the Outlaws to the End Co-Op Mission Pack – which introduced six new Co-operative missions for up to 4 people to conquer together…
And the recent release, the Legends and Killers Pack – which mostly focused on Competitive Multiplayer and added 9 new map locations tailored for Competitive mode action, along with 8 playable characters from the world of Red Dead Revolver and the deadly Tomahawk everyone’s been hacking each other with online…
We are excited to bring you our next packs, starting with the September 21st 2010 debut of our Free Roam release: the Liars and Cheats Pack, which focuses on expanding the Free Roam multiplayer experience as well as adding new modes to Competitive Multiplayer.
The Liars and Cheats Pack will contain a great range of new highly-requested features to expand the Free Roam world including Multiplayer Poker and Liar’s Dice, as well as a brand new Competitive Multiplayer gameplay mode. The Liars and Cheats Pack will also include the content previously announced as the Free Roam Pack. The Free Roam Pack was originally planned as a free download, but due to the platform networks’ restrictions on numbers of free packs we can give away (and our promise to bring you the free Hunting and Trading Outfits Pack – more on that below), we have instead added it to the Liars and Cheats Pack as one Free Roam release boasting the following features and more:
Multiplayer Poker and Liar's Dice Games
One of the most fan-requested features comes to multiplayer.
Multiplayer Horse Races
Ride out against your friends and foes online - with mounted combat guns blazing.
The Explosive Rifle
A devastatingly destructive new weapon with its own new single-player and multiplayer challenges.
7 New Gang Hideouts
Posse up and take on the new Hideouts together to level up quickly.
4 New Hunting Grounds
New Hunting Grounds are now visible on the map for all to see, with some of the most action-packed wildlife hunting yet.
Stronghold Competitive Multiplayer Mode
Teams take turns in attack and defense in multi-tiered Competitive games.
Posse Scoring and Leaderboards
Compare stats with other posses and compete to see who are the kings of the Free Roam frontier.
Plus, 15 additional multiplayer characters from the Red Dead Redemption storyline are being made available as multiplayer characters, and more all-new Achievements and Trophies.
This pack will be released on September 21st worldwide for download on both PlayStation Network ($9.99) and Xbox LIVE (800 Microsoft Points). Stay tuned for lots more detail on the content in this pack including first screens and more.
