Holy Fantastic Movie, Batman!

Well, I finally saw The Dark Knight. Simply put, it was fantastic. I was incredibly over-joyed when I first saw Batman Begins and saw the Joker reference at the end. When I found out Heath Ledger would be playing him, I was a little nervous. But let me tell you, he was the best Joker I'd ever seen. Jack Nicholson did a great job in Tim Burton's Batman in 1989. Heath did a better job. From his voice to the way he moved, that creepy laugh, everything was so great about his acting. Christian Bale returned and did another fantastic job portraying Batman. Honestly, I'm going to go see it again, that's how good it was. If you haven't seen Batman Begins, go see it and then run out and see the Dark Knight.

Viva Pinata and Halo 3

As I had stated in my previous update, I recently got a job (With a great pay) and now have money to buy games. I went to get Halo 3 because, well, everyone I know who has a 360, has it. I got the normal version but promised my friend I'd trade him my case for his Collector's edition case (He has OCD and his copies of Halo and Halo 2 are normal editon, so they don't match up). Which is cool because I really like the case. I've yet to really play it, had to work Monday and Tuesday. But I'll be on more, if anyone wants to play.

In addition, I also picked up the Special Edition version of Viva Pinata. There's not all too much special about it (Aside from the great case) but how can used beat $17.99-Used? The game is fantastic and incredibly addictive. I really don't know how young children even play this game as it has gotten a little hectic on me.

Got an 80 GB Zune

Since I started working, I decided to spend some money on a new Media Player to replace my broken iPod. The idiots at Customer Support decided that my $60 didn't cover the problem. So I went with the newest Zune. The software isn't bad but at the same time, it's not very good either. My only gripe is that it runs slow otherwise, it's not a whole lot different from itunes. It will automatically add any music I add the my music folder, which I like opposed to dragging and dropping music into the software. Same applies with pictures, videos, et cetera.

The player itself is fantastic. It fells just right in my hand, not too heavy or too light. The back is a textured metal that does not seem like it will sratch as much as the ipod brand. The front it a textured plastic and the screen is made of galss, opposed to plastic like most standard players. The scroll-pad-thing is a nice touch. You flick your thumb over it and it will scroll through lists. You can also turn it off and just use buttons. Overall, fantastic player.

Turned 16 on the 2nd

So, last Friday was my 16th birthday. My parents got me a new HDTV and the Indiana Jones DVD boxset (I never saw them, don't ask why). And I had family over that same day. It was pretty cool, a couple of us sat around the tv in my living room and played rockband. Of course, I got sick at the end of the night and spent all of Saturday in bed. I watched all three Jones movies and my mom picked up Blue Dragon for me with some of my birthday money, which is a pretty good game if your looking for a nice, traditional Japanese RPG on the 360.

Foo Fighters

I saw them live last night at the Wachovia Spectrum in Philadelphia, they were amazing. Against Me! were the first opening band, they were ok but not that great. Then Serj Tankian came on, he was amazing too, although Phildelphia didn't seem to like him that much, everyone kind of just stood there. He was pretty funny too, he did a Borat impression. Then Foo Fighters came. I can't remember the song they opened with but then they played "The Pretender" and "Times like these" and then Dave Grohl chated with everyone for a while. About half-way through a small, circular stage descended from the ceiling about 30 feet away from my seat. They played a couple acoustic songs with the my grammy moment nominees and an acoutic version of "My Hero" and then chated with us again. Apparently only like 2 of the 7 on the stage could read music. Then Dave did a slow version of "Everlong." About half-way through, he ran back up to the main stage and they finished it and went on to play "All My Life." They went back stage and came out for an encore. They played "Big Me" and then he talked about a rumor going around about the stadium being demolished and played "Best of You." Overall, friggin amazing show. And to top it off, we got like four inches of snow and my parents let me stay home (due to the fact that the roads are icey and there were like 4 accidents on the way to school). Can't wait to see them when they tour again.
