End of an Empire

The final episode of Rome aired last night :cry: Even though the second season wasn't nearly as excellent as the first, It's still sad to see it go so soon...but they gave it a decent end. After season 1, I was hooked on the show. The scene where Vorenus jumps into the arena to save Pullo is one of the coolest fight scenes you'll ever see. This last season did disappoint me a bit though. It moved really really fast, went from one crazy event to another before you could figure out what happened with the crazy event from last weeks episode. Seemed rushed I guess, but it still had some great moments(Brutus walking alone into an enemy army was pretty badass). On another sad cancellation note, one of my other favorite late weekend HBO shows is also calling it quits this summer, with "two, 2 hour films" Deadwood will also be finished. No more Seth Bullock kicking the crap out of people. Sucks, but I have hope that something new will come along sooner or later.

Aside from that, I downloaded Worms off XBL arcade the other day. Brings back memories of the old PC version, running 4 player games where we all had to use the same damn computer and fought over two chairs, good times. I also finally got myself a new headset for the 360. Think it's been almost 4 months since the eh....accident...with my old one, so it's about time. With a little luck, history won't repeat itself and this headset will live a bit longer than the last one. For now, there's a curious george cartoon on tv and it's strangely drawing my attention......
