Break Ups.

Okay so I am writting this blog to vent if you will. I am alittle confused, upset, sad, angry, basically every emotion other then happy right now. Me and my boyfriend of about 4 years have justbroken up. I normally don't use this site to vent or blog or talk about my personal life but I really like this site and I feel it helps to talk about things like this. SO me and my now ex-boyfriend Daniel were going out for a year then I broke up with him,2 weekslater we got back together and 1 year later he broke up with me, we got back together and broke up 3 days later. We stayed apart for 3 months (not really apart I would text him every now and then). Then we met one day felt still in love and got back together. Now 1 year and afew months later we are here again. He is a active, out going person that likes hanging out with friends anddrinking and going to clubs and dancing (not to anover the toppoint). I am a 21 year old 40 yr old man, meaning I like staying in and watching TV, playing video gamesand hanging with my mom and 2 dogsthen I go to sleep and go to work. I have2 friends.However I am happy with myself. I don't think I should have to change anything about myself. Its just when you meet that one person that you think your going to spend the rest of your life with its hard to say good bye. On top of that I am the kind of person that if its over, its over and I try my hardest to finish up everything and go seperate ways completely. I am still in shock honestly about the whole thing. Everything started, in my mind, lastweekend. I was having a strange weekend, i'm not doing so well in my class, I wasreturning to my oldjob on Monday, plus I was feeling alittle depressed so I wanted to beby myself so I pushedDanielaway.Next thing I know come Wensday we break up because he feel neglected andas ifI am holding him back.I can not tell you how much it hurts to hear the manthatyou love tell you you are a hinderance in his life. That you negatively effect his overall happiness.As for thebreak up when it was happening I was so angry that I wanted to run out of thecar and sream, 1. because I could not believe this was happening again!!!!!, and 2. because I was so blindfully stupid to this impending break up. I honestly thought we were both happy and nothing would happen between us, EVER. I though after what happened last time and the hurt we both experienced being alone that that would be the last time. Honestly I don't know what is going to happen I love that man more then anything and I feel sad right now and as if my life is kind of empty now.Ijust hope things can be resolved one way or another. I would love to stay friends if we stay broken up but I don't think that is what he wants. I know it would be hard for me to hear him going out on dates or just hanging out with his family cause I would be sad I wasn't there with him.

These are some happy pics of us together. I figured someone should see them. I am Chris the Whiter of the two, Daniel is the more tanner one. Together 01/06-11-09

Thanks for reading and I appreciateall comments.

New Job.

Okay so I just got a new job. Well sort of new job. 6 months ago I was let go from this company that I actually kind of liked working for. I thought I was one of the best employees and I never felt I was going to be let go. Then I requested a raise and got into an argument with the jerk supervisor and he let me go. I figured I should just forget that chapter of my life and move on. Boy was that impossible, I never got a job even though I applied at almost everywhere I could imagine. I looked ad looked and nothing happened application after application. Then today I got a call frm a girl I used to work with, one of the managers that I actually liked. She was calling to offer me a job with the company again. She said that they need people and I was 1st on her hire back list. Apparently this supervisor got in fights with other people and let them go as well. Well I was on the fence at first and had to ask my mom and boyfriend for their opinions and they said take it. So I called her back and said "I'm hired". Naturally I am still abit shocked and on top of that I am kind of relived and sad. Is this going to be the only job I ever work. Am I going to be a college graduate stuck in a check cashing job getting paid slightly above minimum wage. I conveyed all this to her and she said, "Oh by the way your getting your raise and we will look at your performance again in 6 months for another raise, which I know you will get." I mean I am eleated right now. Still it is a "new" job so I am kind of nervous getting back out there.

RPG's how I have missed you.

Yes I have been looking into RPG's lately even though I lost the better half of my youth on Pokemon and Final Fantasy 7-10 (Including Tactics). I have been looking at those that I missed in my7 year anti-RPGphase. I now came to the realization that maybe if I play an RPG sparingly I can play it without being sucked into the vortez that is soulless gamer RPGdisease. Anyways as to the headline of this blog I waslookingfor a good RPG to sink my Xbox360 into and I found a game thatI almostmissed and skipped over because they don't sell it at Gamestop and its not really highly marked but I still managed to find it and I am planning on getting it soon. That game is:

Yes this game although cute looks extremely detailed and is JRPG insipired and is the 10th game in the Tales series. It is ust ne of those games that is almost hidden by its lack of publicity but when you look at it you think, how could this game be missed. On top of that it has8.0's around the bored which is enough for me to add this one to my collection. Now to find it.......In other RPG related news I am not giving up on getting Dragon Age Origins for the PS3. Although I am not getting it tomorrow I am still planning on purchasing it.

Darksiders is going to be better then GOW

This game looks so good and the menu's look so polished. The demo that was featured on the Spot is so jaw droppingly good that I think it is going to be the best game to start 2010 off with. I will even go one farther and say this game is going to be better then God of War 3. I have seen both demo's and Darksiders just looks more interesting there is leveling up abilities and you can tak on aditional special abilities. This game is going to be a top scorer for 2010.

What you guys think, take a look at this video and comment if you agree or not.

Darn you XBOX360!!! O-well back up plan time.

Okay so I was dead set on getting Dragon Age Origins for the Xbox360 today, however I just saw the review for the game and they said the Xbox360 version is the least best one ofthe 3 to pick because of its longer loading times and lesser visuals. This is a huge pit fall for me because I curently let my boyfriend borrow my PS3 so I won't be able to play if I did decide to buy it for the PS3 so instead I am getting 3 games that I always wanted to get.Which with promo codes and my edge card will come out to exactly as much as a new Dragon Age Origins would. I guess that game will just have to wait till I get my PS3 back. As for the 3 games I decided to get they are:

Super Paper Mario for WiiAssassin's Creed for X360Grand Theft Auto IV for X360

I always wanted to get Super Paper Mario I just never that it was worth the 40.00 but with the coupons its only 24.99 so thats a deal too good even for me to pass up.

Assassins Creed I bought before on the PS3 but I never really got a chance to play it and when I finally did I skipped over most of the story so I could get to the meat of the game, the assassinations. However that made the story hard to understand and 1/5 of the way through the game I gave up and traded it in. I guess it is time to give this baby another shot.

I always heard GTA 4 was a must own game but I never thought it was for me. I am more of a Action hack and slasher then a gagster drug deal car stealing kind of gamer. However my friend said I had to get it and so I remembered and took it to heart so I decided to see what all the fuss is about especially since it will only cost me 20.00 for a used copy.

On top of all that which I am buying my boyfriend did the best thing any boyfriend could do and surprised me with a new copy of Borderlands today. Well surprise isn't really true I was dropping major hints that I wanted this game but couldn't efford it so he said he would get it for me. So it really wasnt a surprise but I am surprised that he contributed to my addiction.

Hours Please.

Have you ever noticed how certain game rating websites never tell you how long a game lasts? I am so frustrated with this. They never give the time of how long a game lasts in hours. Especially since we are in such harsh economical hardships. If I am going to spend 60.00 on a game then I want to know that it is going to be worth the 60.00. This blog came out of the fact of how difficult it was to get an hourly range for a video game. When Brutal Legend came out I was hearing that the game was short so I started reading reviews after reviews trying to find out an exact time frame because one persons short is anothers decent. So after abouyt 3 hours of no concrete hourly range I did a post on Yahoo answers trying to get an answer and after 2 days someone told me under 10 hours. Was that so hard? I thus came to a weird conclusion video game reviewing websites are not givinglengthof game in hours because they are working with the companies not to say stuff like that because it would negatively contribute to that games poor sales. This needs to stop.This is one huge reason why I have decided to get Dragon Age Origins, they are saying there is 160 hours of gameplay. Honesty, action and buckets o blood...............I AM SO THERE!!!!!

1st non game blog

I normally only use this site for my game blogging but I had such a crazy day today that I thought I should share some of my newly found wisdom with others.

So the story starts 3 months back when I went to Western Dental and was told I had 3 cavities that needed to be filled because they were "bad". Well I didn't have any pain and I didn't see what the dentist was pointing at so I said I'll wait. Before I had a chance to say no they sent in the accountant that crunched the numbers with me. It came to $465.75 for the fillings and work. I told her "I'll have to think more about this" she insisted on checking my credit score to see if I qualified for a payment plan, which I didn't (old credit card trouble messed up my credit).Still she insisted I get the work done and I quote "It is imperative to your dentalhealth that you get this done as soon as possible" So I figured I would wait till I developed pain and be back. Later on I felt something was not right so I would go somewhere else if I develop anything abnormal.

This brings us to today, I have been having this pain in my mouth for about a month now. So i went to this place for low income families which is suppose to be really good, that was recommended by my Boyfriend's dad,also thinking I could save a buck and getthese 3 cavities filled. So i walked in and insisted on not even havingX-rays because I knew I had 3 cavities and told them which teeth they were (remembering them from the X-rays/ which they would not give me a copy of). Still they took them anyways and 15 minutes later it happened. The dentist lady walked in and showed me tooth by tooth how I had ZERO cavities.Needless to say I was more then alittle shocked. She assured me that she is a fully licensed dentist and owns her own practice and works at that place as volenteer and she gets nothing out of telling me I have or don't have a cavity. They even gave me the actual X-rays as proof and suggested I take it to them and show them. So she continued the exam by looking at my gums and found something that I was not expecting. I have Gum disease,which isactually fairly common and most people that notice consistent bad breath should talk to their dentist about it. Anywaysthat was responsible fo my pain and it couldbe fixed with flossing 10 times a day, brushing 4 times a day and rinsing 4 times a day. Then she bestows some more wisdom on me, I have had this for over a year and I was shocked because I had just been toWestern Dental 3 months ago and I was examined and checked out by a licensed dentist (more like licensed scam artist)whichnever told me of said disease. I have such a HUGE bone to pick with Western dental but I came to the decision ontaking the higher ground and just forgetting about it and reveling in the fact thatIam cavity free.However I figure I shouldinform as many people as I can to stay away from them. They are only out for your money and will mess with your teeth, your gums, and your health for it.

2010 list yet again

I have been looking and I just changed my 2010 list yet again I know I do thi every few months when newer and more better looking game info comes out but I think this is ging to be my last 2010 list so enjoy.

Super Mario Galaxy 2

If this gae is half as good as part 1 then thats enough for me, the first one was just that good. I will undoubtably be getting this game the day it comes out. Lets just not hope its pushed back to 2011.

Darksiders, I have been waiting for this game for months since I heard it was coming out almost a year ago and I am litterally drooling from the mouth with every video that comes out. I know this game is going to be a top condender for 2010 game of the year.

Fable 3. I played through the 2nd game in 2 months, of course I did complete every side quest and downloadable content and I think it was the best month I have ever had playing an RPG game it is just that good. I will be looking forword to this game in Q4 2010.

I have to admit when the 1st game came out I was like, "No not for me". I am not making the same mistake this time this game is coming out the2nd month of 2010 and it is the best game to keep me occupied for the rest of 2010.

Yet another game this is filled with blood and begging to be played. The graphics look great in this game, only downside I hope its not too dark.

My top game for 2009 just got pushed back to 2010. I am now officially heart broken I was hoping it would come out around christmas but now I have to wai 5 mre months. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know these games came out almost 10 years ago but I loved these games so much and it was the best game for the price that lasted along time. These were my fav pokemon games of all time and I remember I even bought the gold version in japanese because I didn't want t wait for it to come out in the states and I played it through with no problem. It is that good.

Freezing time and bending space is so awesome. I have been hoping this game would come out when it was predicted back in september but I am more then willing to wait for this game.

I have never played either of the 1st game but I will in Nov. however I don't need to play the games to know that this game is going to be big and I want to add it to my collection.

I saw the E3 demo and I thought it looked alot like Silent hill but I was okay with that as long as it has a great story and some intriguing gameplay mechanics then I will be there.

No More!!!!

So there are alot of great games coming out this month and I have come to a realization. I want them all but can't efford them. So I looked it over and I did alot of investigating and I finally came up with a decision I am n longer buy games, I am renting them. Yes I looked at all the possible companies out there and I picked one that had the best overall customr satisfaction parred with the most available stock of video games. That company is Gamefly, I know it is the biggest video game rental company but if you take a closser look there are alot of other great companys out there and some even cheaper. Still it was the best choice for me. I only decided todo this when I looked at my list of games I wanted and found that alot of them are in th 30$ range, and I couldn't efford them all this way I get 2 games at 1 time and I only pay 20.00 a month. I already have neflix so I figured why not rent my games and movies. 1 thing that did shock me is thatI signed up on Monday Night at 8:00pm and I got my first 2 games today, that is really fast service. Just as fast as Netflix. I mean I will still buy the occassion good game every now and then but just not all the games.

I have to say the clincher for why I did this came when 2 great games came out this month and turned out both were relatively short. Yes I am talking about Brutal Legend and Uncharted. I really want to buy these two games but i am in no way willing to spend 60.00 for a game that is going to be beaten in 2-3 days and then eventually traded back to Gamestop.

On the other side of the field I managed to narrow down the games I must buy which includes Borderlands which is a longer game and with the bazillion of weapons worth the buy it factor. Also Dragon Age Origins looks really good and I am so excited to get my hands on that game. Normally I stray away from RPGS but the graphics and the game play look so good that I will have no problem committing to this game. I also plan on getting GTA4 soon, I have been saying I was going to get it but I honestly mean it this time. I will be adding that game to my collection within the next few days.

WOW, things kind of......changed.

So I was really excited to get my hands on Brutal Legend and I was going to go and get it the day it came out and all that gamer addicted like stuff right. Then I read some of the preliminary reviews before the game came out and I was like, "okay maybe I should wait." Now I spent the last few hours going over gamer reviews and I have to say I am SERIOUSLY thinking of waiting to get Brutal Legend when it goes on sale, I mean these are just some of the complaints I read:

Short 3-5 hours main campaign

Game gets boring after opening scene

If your not into Metal, which I'm not, you'll want to play this game without the sound

Pop-in and glitches happen alot, especially when driving

Multiplayer is the best part, I don't EVER utilize Multiplayer online or off

Game becomes a stragedy game instead of an action adventure game, much to my surprise.

Those are some pretty bad things, I mean I only buy games if they are rated good, bygamers, andif the price ='s the same amount of overall playable hours. Honestly, on a seperate note,I am not aHUGE fan of JackBlack so that might be a deal beaker for me too. So I am reallyALMOST committing to waiting for this game, what you guys think?

Then another thing that shocked me, Uncharted 2 a game which I wasluke-warm looking forword to, I am actually now reallyamped on getting this game. I liked the first one, thought it was a little short but overall I did like it. However I thought this game was going to be over hyped and theywere trying to try and do too much with thetitle however after seeing some fan made vids on Youtube I find I am really excited about this game. More then I ever thought I would be. On the downside again I have heard 2 things about this game too.

Short again about 15 hours of gameplay

Puzzles can be difficult

Still 2 bad things aint that bad, I am80% sure about getting this game just need some more opinions what you guys say?

Lastly I am looking forword to another game coming out in 2 days, it is not getting as much attention as I think it deserves, Borderlands. I have been watchin the previews and stuff for this game and I am almost sure it is going t be the Fallout 3 of this year, with less RPG elements but it has a similar look and feel to Fallout. I really like the visual EXP system they have reminisent of something from Crackdown. I was also excited about the thousands of weapons they have in the game. I just hope it has a decent story and is not too much on the sandbox side, I like following a maint storyline with interesting turns and yet I enjoy some free roaming capabilities. I also saw it has jump in and out multiplayer that looks cool and something that took alot of work; not that I will be using it but I can still appreciate. Honestly though I just wish it wasn't 60.00, 40.00 and I would be in line tuesday night no if ands or butts.

Top 5 Tower Defense Iphone games.

5.FieldrunnersFieldrunners, This game is alot of fun and ha top notch graphics however it falls short of some of the other TD games. The latest update did add some great new gameplay but with only 3 Maps it fails to meet the standards set by other games in the genre, however it was the 1st noted worthy Tower Defense game that and the great graphics lands this game a spot on this list. If you find yourself with 2.99 to spare then go ahead and get this game but look at the games on this list before you commit.

4.Moonlight Minions, This game is a new game, but it is just that good. The graphics, although mainly blue, are good. The sound effects fit the game and the overall level design is great. The game can be a bit easy but with 16 levels it still beats out Fieldrunners on content. On top of that at .99 this game is a steal and completely worth it.

3.Sentinel BoxshotSentinel: Mars Defense, This game is one of those great game that does get as much notariaty as it should. If your a fan of Iphone TD games then you've most like heard of this game and it is one of the most realist looking games on the Iphone. However with only 4 levels, and 8 tower types it suffers from the same short comings as with Fieldrunner, short and needing content. Still if you complete the game and still want more then look to Sentinel 2: Earth Defense to satisfy your TD craving.

2.geoDefenseGeodefense, This game is incredibly simple in its design and look however when you play this game you realize just how challenging and deep the gameplay can be. With over 30 levels and 5 different towers upgradable to level 7 each this game is one of the cheapest, .99, and hardest Tower Defense games on the Iphone. So good its #4 on Apples Favorite Game list, and was rated by PCWorld as the #8 Can't live without Iphone App.

1.Ninja TDNinja TD,This game is brand new and now with the latest update of 10 new levels, 34 in all,and endless mode enabled this game is by far the best Tower Defense game ever made, even better the Fieldrunners if you spend any money on any TD game then this is the only game to pick. With 5 unitsand 6 spellsat your disposalyou'll have a fun time getting through this game.

Iphone and Itouch, THE best handheld.

I have had my Iphone for over 1 year now and I love it. I without a doubt spend more time playing games on it then on all my consoles combined. I also have to admit that I have spent over $600.00 on games for my Iphone and I don't regret it at all. I currently own 200 games for it, more then all my other consoles combined yet again. By now yourprobably wondering, what is the point? Well I have come to a conslusion that I think one day all gamers will too, the Iphone is the new and best handheld in the market to date. It is just amazing how you can click and buy a game and 3-5 minutes later your playing it, no stores, no connecting to wifi (if the game is not over 10MB), just click and done. I also can not believe the quality of games the Iphone has, games that can easily rival the Nintendo DS, and PSP. Games such as:

The best part of the Iphone is everyday there are new and fun games added to the Appstore so if your bored with a game or finished it then just buy another one. However the best thing about Iphone games is that they have great length and replay value, some have multiplayer and others have online connectivity. Also you can listen to your own music while you play a game, a feature I have been beggin for in the PSP. I just think the Iphone is the al around best handheld there is out there, even if your not in the market for a new phone well then you can buy an Itouch and still get allthe great games from the Appstore. I really can not stress how great of a product this is, if your really a hard core gamer and have the cash to get an Itouch and acouple games then don't think twice and get one.

If you took my advice and did get an Iphone then keep an eye out for the list of the 10 must own Iphone/Itouch games coming soon.

All Time Fav. Exclusive Title. Whats Yours?

Love this game!!!!!!!!!!!! I so can not wait for a sequel. Everything about this game is awesome. The controls, the graphics, the story, the length, the concept. I have yet to see a game as good as this one and what makes it even better is that it is an exclusive and it is a game that finally makes the Wii worth owning. In my opinion there is no better game.

However I know there are some great exclusives out there so whats your fav.?

Gears of War on the PS3????

Yep, I was just browsing around some of the new news tabs onGamespot.com and I came across a prieview for a new game coming out in 2010. Its called Quantum Theory (I know not really sure of the title either), and if you have been always waiting for a Gears of War game to hit the PS3, the original.....yeah right!!!!!,and look no further. I was watching the trailer and it looks 75% similar to Gears, in that you use a cover sytem, the way you shoot, the style of clothes, and even the story and the main characters look remotly similar. I am not saying I condone it when a company takes another companys idea and twists it to make their own 2nd hand game a good thing. We'll just have to wait and see if this PS3 exclusive doesn't hit any trademarking snags upon its release. Still I think with enough polish and attention to detail this game can possibly be up there with Gears, not surpass it that for sure but maybe up there. I say that because it is being developed by a company that normally dabbles in kiddy games and has yet to make a stand out great game. Also I was watching the vids, and frankly it looks like the whole game is your character and his back-up stuck in a tower and its your job to bring it down, which doesn't sound all that fun. I mean the one thing everyone loved about Gears was its variety in location. I am looking forword to this game, but I still need more to be convinced......what you guys think?

Shop, Shop, Shop....damn not til OCT.

This game has just come out of no where, sure it does have a touch of a resemblance to a fictional sci-fi shooter that came out about a year ago. Which I happened to not really like all that much.But this one looks different with THOUSANDS of weapon choices and visable exp., similar to Crackdown,with every shot, I a really lookin forword to this one. In fact I might be more excited about this gamemore now thenI am about Brutal Legend, maybe just a tad. Too bad I got to wait till the 20th, but I'll have 2 other gamesto help cushion the wait, YES!!!!

The second game I am looking forword to is Brutal Legend, I got to give Tim Shaffer a hand on this one, he really marketed the heck out of this game it looks so good and even though the combat does not seem as immersive as say God of War it still has a really great look, and the story alone makes this one a must own. I just hope it has both content and length. I will no doubtablly be at Gamestops door the morning of the 13th, ow and its not just because of this game there is one other game I will be picking up.

This is the 3rd game I am looking forword to for October, lucky for me I will be able to pick up both this game and Brutal Legend on the same day. I am still amazed this game got a 9.0 rating, maybe now people will give the 1st game a scod look, I think it is one of the most overlooked games on the PS3. Still from what I have seen the only imporvment I can tell is that they updated the graphics and included both horizontal and vertical movement. I just hope it is a longer game then the first one.

Aint that a Bi&*#!!!!!!!!!!!

So I popped in my copy of Super Mario Galaxy today and I was really excited about getting into this game. I mean it is one of the highest rated games on the Wii. So alittle back story to this story I bought this game 3-4 months ago and didn't get around to it because I wanted to play one game at a time in the order I purchased them and lets just say I was backed up on playing my collection. Soanyways I popped in the game and clicked the game disk wii channel and anerror code came up saying Disk could not be read, please consult wiimanual. Well I could not believe it I took the game out cleaned it with anon-abrassive cloth I use to clean all my disks and it looked as good as new. I put it back in and the same thing, I installed the new update thinking that might be the problem, put in some of my other games to see if they worked which they did, nd restarted my Wii(multiple times) and nothing worked. So I woke up extra early and called Nintendo this morning and theman helping me said normally they wouldn't do anything because I bought it so longago but he said he would allow a 1-time exception since it did sound like a case of the disk being defective. So I send it in free of charge they will either fix the disk or if it is defective send me a new one. I am so excited that it was fixed only downside is 1. I can't play the game for 9-14 business days and 2. If they find any scratch, though I don't see any,that is to blame for the problem then I get sentback the same none working disk. Can you believe that? If that ends up happening I will just take the game to gamestop and let them deal with it. I wonder if I could get in trouble for that?Either way I am happy it is fixed but sad I have to wait so long. I wanted to play the game now!!!!! This is the 1st issue I have ever had with a used game, in fact any game..........why did it have to be this game of all games??????

New theme. It seemed fitting

So if you haven't noticed I have updated my profile with new pics. I figured since I am currently playing two Marvel games that it only seemed like the best option for the new theme. Ihave always been a fan of Marvel comics and I am actually surprised I haven't comeup with this idea before. Hope you guys like, I love it!!!!!!By the way here are some cool pics I found that didn't make the page.

Just Completed Games and last impression.

I know its been out for a while now but I barely got around to starting and finishing this game this week. It was a good game, the graphics were better then I was expecting and the weaponry was pretty pimpalisous. I enjoyed this game and felt it was an overall decent package abit on the short side but still fun. It took me about 10 hours to get through the entire game, and the difficulty wasn't half bad. I still wouldn't play the game again but with the sequel comming out soon I maybe looking closer at that game now.

Again I know late on the money on this one too, however I had let a friend of mine borrow this one so it wasn't until recently that I got it back and was able to finish it. The ending was a bit lame, I had been expecting this big ending with an epic boss battle between me and Alma instead all I got was a plane crash. Still I had alot of fun playing this game, I did have to crank the difficulty level to make it worth playing but still 100% a great deal for a good game. I would recommend this game for those that like shooters. Even those that like a good scare afew times I found myself jumping out of my seat.

This game is my second favorite Super Hero game of all time. I loved the swinging, which was perfectly fine tuned, and I loved the story. The fighting was a bit much. There were just so many moves, it felt alot like prototype. Its like everytime I would get used to a new move I was given the option to upgrade again and I had to learn all new moves that I forgot the other moves I had just learned. If there had just been a solid 15 moves for each suit I would have been able to play better and liked the game more. Wolverine in this game was kind of weird I felt he was out of place. Other then that it is a good game, not worth the 40.00 I paid for it but if you managed to find it for say about 25.00 or even 20.00I would not pass it up.

Alot of Stuff!!!!

So I have been waiting for Trine to pop up in the US Playstation store and it still hasn't happened even though Gamespot is saying it was released on the 8th in the States. I am more then a bit confused. Now that it has been taking so long I am begining to rethink even getting it and waiting afew days when I'll have enough to get Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2. Still not really sold on it since it did get only a 7.5.

(NOT REAL, JUST SOMEONES IDEA)

I also heard, via Gamepot( so I don't know whether or not to trust it), that Nintendo is thinking of comming out with another new controller. Which again I am confused about because they already have the most possible controller possibilities out of all the Next Gen consoles and to be honest I was a bit mad that I had to buy an adapter just to pay Wiisports Resort with 1 other friend. So for them, having just released an attachment to the Wiimote, to come out with another controller is, in my opinion, just stupid. I understand that now Sony and Microsoft having lovered their console prices they no longer have the edge but do they really think a controller is going to save them? Cause I dont. Also I think Sony should compleatly scrap the new controller they are developing, the wand one that was show cased at E3, that thing just looks rediculous.You will never see me playing with that thing.

I was just playing Wet the other day and you know what? I came to realization, it is a pretty boring game. Yes I hate to say it but it truly is. When I first played Infamous or Batman or Dead Space or even LittlebigPlanet I had this excitement in me that just bubbled over. Yet whilst playing this game I did not. In fact I felt more depressed playing that game then playing Infamous athird time around. I am kind ofwishing I would have waited and gotten somethig better like, both Brutal Legend and Uncharted 2 on the 13th. As far as why I felt it was boring its because your doing the same thing over and over again, shooting people and the difficulty level is pretty easy, thereis little challenge the voice acting is pretty bad and the music aintTHAT great, also the biggestproblem with this game is theone thing I LOVE about games is the graphics, they suck!!!!!!!I would recommend waiting on getting this game till it goes down to at least 35.00 before getting it. Not worth even the 50.00 I paid for it.

I am debating on getting MarvelUltimate Alliancethe 1st game, I had the game before but I couldnt really get into it so I gave it away before I even got passed the first airship level. So I am thinking if I give it a solid try this time aroud I maybe able to get some fun out of it I mean it was rated 8.2 by Gamespot so it has to be good for a reason. Besides at only 10.00 for a copy I think even if I don't like it I'll still keep it this time around since it only set me back 10.00.

Army of TwoArmy of Two: The 40th Day

Another thing I recently did was open up my old copy of Army of two and started playing it and you know what it is a good game. When I first played it with my friend I wasn't into it. I thouh it was too complicated since the screen wa split and you not only had to watch what you were doing but what your partner was doing as well. However now playing it with the AI I really like it. I wouldn't give it an award or anything but it has gotten me kid of excited for the next installment coming out in Jan or something. So now I have a game to buy in Jan. Army of Two the 40th Day.
