Summer has Begun ! ! !
So here is another blog
Things are going good for the moment. I finished my exams and got 7 weeks of no studying ahead of me. This week I won't be working, but from next week I will have to do some labour. Life isn't cheap.
So what have I been doing lately. Well I got the Rock Band Drums finally
I have played for some hours and I really enjoy them, but it is still a bit hard haha. I can play some songs on hard though. I downloaded some songs for RB2 today, including songs by system of a down, evanesance, papa roach, franz Ferdinand and not to forget Sponge Bob lol.
I'm also replaying Prince of Persia, nearly got all the light seeds (just 12 left
). After that I will start replaying it for the speed demon and go easy on her achievements. PoP is the first game of a series of games I will replay this summer. Bully, Star Wars Force Unleashed and Tomb Raider Underworld are still on my list.
This weekend I have been to a rock festival called Rock Werchter. A lot of bands were there, here are the ones that I enjoyed: Cold Play, Limp Bizkit, Black Eyed Peas, Pendulum, The prodigy, Just Jack, Katy Perry, Bloc Party, Rodrigo y Gabriella, The Killers and Metallica. 4 days of constant rock haha. I had a blast and it was over in a blink.
Now Im getting ready for a brain dead summer with lots of games and movies. How is your summer looking?
Who could help me with a cool new banner?
Hello guys,
I am doing alright, almost ready for the summer. 1 more exam left
I already got one result back, which is a 9.2 for Aerodynamics. A very good score if you ask me ![]()
Been playing games too, right now I am really into GRiD and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.
I am going to keep this blog short, since I need to study some more. I do have a request. I would like a new banner, since this one doesn't represent me anymore. Right now I am looking forward to the following games:
Assassins Creed 2
Bioshock2
Dead Rising 2
Modern Warfare 2
Just the big games for 360 ![]()
I don't know if anyone is interested in making such a banner, but I might as well give it a shot ![]()
Well for now, see you all later
Another Blog
Hi guys, how is everybody doing? I am doing alright, I'm in the midst of my exam preparation. Luckily there is enough time to keep track of E3 a little. Some really exciting stuff happening and each console tries to deliver the best they can. That is always a good sign ![]()
I just noticed I have been playing a lot of games since I am back and my Gamer Score has almost doubled in these 4 months. It has gone up from 7930 to 15125, pretty impressive if you ask me and when summer starts the rise should continue steadily
Games don't evolve around GamerScore though,but around playing quality games and I am confident to say there are lots of those on the market. Plus there are a lot of quality games coming before years end.
We really had some amazing games in the last few years and it seemed to be dying down a little, but now things are looking very good again. Off course we have a lot of sequels from the likes of Assassins Creed 2, Dead Rising 2, Modern Warfare 2 andBioshock 2. Those games will really brighten up my upcoming holiday season ![]()
I am also very excited about project Natal, it looks to be very innovative and I wonder what types of games they will bring on the market. I am not so thrilled about games that play like Wii Sports and the game they showed, Milo, looked a bit creepy in my eyes.A virtual friend just doesn't seem right in my eyes
But the fact it works is very impressive.There sure is lots of potential to come up with great gaming ideas. So I can only kick back and wait what they will throw at us.
I also think MS will keep improving Live, I love the new services they are offering. The option to watch a game of football, or a movie with your mates in a lobby is just fantastic in my eyes. All in all, Assassins Creed took the show for me, it was the most anticipating game for me this E3 and Ubisoft really delivered. The game looks great and I am sure the story will be great again. I really cannot wait to play that game.
With that I am off. I hope you all enjoyed E3 as well ![]()
Peace
A blog
I am writing a blog. Been so long
See if I still have it, I doubt it though
I have been quiet depressed the last couple weeks and can't say I am over it. Too much to explain though and none of you are waiting for that
I am still gaming a lot and it helps to take my thoughts of my problems even if it is for a split second. I got a lot of new games lately, a bit too much if you ask me. Luckily all of them where budget price. 6 games for a total of 135 euros isn't too bad imo. What games did I got you ask, let me lay them down for you:
Prince of Persia
Mirror's Edge
Tomb Raider Underworld
FEAR
FEAR Files
Bully
KING KONG (Borrowed from my cousin)
So far I have finished Mirror's Edge and I am a far way with Prince of Persia. I think I will start playing FEAR and Tomb Raider next. I am playing KING KONG on the side, mainly for the achievements, but the game is actually quiet good and stays close to the movie.
I am pretty broke atm, so budget gaming is gonna be the new way of living
I am still looking into getting Rock Band 2 though, I so want to play the drums on that game XD But that is probably going to be this summer.
Well there is not much else, I am not that active on GameSpot anymore so probably a lot of you have lost me out of sight
For the ones that haven't, how are you doing ![]()
Keep gaming fellas ![]()
Am I still Alive ? ! ?
I am writing this blog so that must mean I am still breathing. How are you all doing? Like most of y'all know I have been in Africa for the last 5 months and tomorrow I fly back to Europe, the Netherlands. The time in Africa has gone by fast, but I feel it is time to return to my hometown. There is something I have to leave behind though and that is my girlfriend. I met her 3 months back and we really grow to love each other. The departure tomorrow is not gonna be an easy one.
I will tell a little bit what I think about the last 5 months in Africa. First of all I was here for my studies and had a project running here. Things didn't work out though and I failed my project and got another project which I failed too. Too bad failing projects wasn't one of my objectives. The outcome of this exchange program is that I am quitting my studies, what say that again. After 4 years of struggling I am going to quite my studies. It is a shame, but it feels like I am doing the right thing by going into a new direction. I still need to find that direction, but anyway ![]()
Ok so what happened next to my studies, a lot actually. You got a lot of free time next to the university, which we used for swimming in the pool, hanging in the mall and I have never been to clubs so much in my life. The people I lived with were all very cool and our time together was a blast. We were with 11 students from Holland in total. We did a lot of road trips through the country together. We been to Sun City, Qwa Qwa, Durban and Cape Town. I have really seen a lot of the country and its amazing sceneries, animals and people. A good thing is that I haven't experienced much violence or whatsoever in this country. Most of my memories are very positive. I haven't regretted leaving Europe for one second, this has been the best experience in my life.
Ok back to games, since that is what this site is about. I only had my PSP with my during my stay overseas. I finally finished God of War : Chains of Olympus on God Mode and now I am playing some Burnout Revenge. I haven't gamed a lot and I haven't missed my 360 much, but now that I am on the point to go back to the Netherlands the urge to play my xbox is getting really appealing. So it is definitely not that I am over gaming lol
I have missed so much since I have been away for 5 months and I got a lot of games to catch up on. The good thing is that I am currently looking forward for RE5 as unreleased game. So that gives me some time to catch up. The only problem is that I have spend quiet a lot of money in Africa and I would have thought things would be so cheap here
lol But if money starts to pile up again I hope to get the following games: Gears of War 2, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Prince of Persia, Call of Duty : World at War and Fable II.
First thing I will do when I get back in Holland is getting a Gold Live subscription again lol and then I will see what games I will get first. I might just wait to get the GTA IV DLC the lost & damned. And with that I am off, hope all is well with you guys and let me know if you still remember me lol
