In Texas, bought some movies at a pawn shop before I left

Got to my house today and am on my dad's computer, which freezes a lot. Movers should be here tomorrow with all our stuff.

Just in time to get an email from Atlus with some nice preorder bonuses for Demon Souls....I better find a job.

Movies I Bought

Gundam Seed Complete Feature Collection: Bought it for $20 and it seems to sell online for $40-$50. Trying to sell it for $45 on half.com. Hopefully I'll get some money, if it sells its like getting all these movies for free and some money.

300: I really like it because it's nice to see a movie where ever ******* in it gets killed within a few seconds of screentime, saw it before

The Evil Dead: Like it, saw it before. Need to find the other two now

Waiting: I really like it and I saw it before. Great ending and I like Ryan Reynolds

Flags of Our Fathers: Never saw it, was ok but really boring. I guess there was only likefive Japanese soldiers defending that island.

Letters From Iwo Jima: Still need to watch it, likely to actually show a few Japanese soldiers.

Some Exercise Thing: My sister wanted to see it and she said it was worth a lot more than the $3 it sold for. She said she would sell and give me the money after watching it, since I payed for it. More money, yay. Edit: DAMN! It sells for over $40 on amazon. Yay!

I could have bought The Last King of Scotland, Borat, Little Miss Sunshine, Garden State, and Troy (I wanted the extended anyway) but decided not to when I bought the Gundam Seed Collection, wasn't sure of what it sold for at the time.

I also saw some of the first Transformers at my friends house, up to the part where they take that guys ID after getting him to take his clothes off. I couldn't stand watching anymore, I don't really care about Megan Fox or explosions, so I see nothing appealing about this movie. And neither would my friend if not for Megan Fox. If these characters were in 300, they would all die really fast (as fast as slow motion can be)...and I would love it. Someone actually bought this at the pawn shop the second I walked in, I'm glad he did or I would have bought it.

New Games and TV Series Bought

Games Bought

SMT Devil Survivor: $30

Yay, a new SMT game, verysoon after the last but that isn't anything to complain about. I picked this up yesterday and am about to play it for the first time now, I wanted to finish my second playthrough of Luminous Arc 2 first (which only took a day because you are able to play through with your leveled up characters in the new game + ).

Way of the Samurai: $4.50

I found it used with the case, manual, and disk in almost new condition. I rented it a long time ago and enjoyed, I knew it was a little hardder to find (hard to find in stores easy to, like just about any game, online). Got it a little cheaper than I could have where I checked online and I have everything in good condition.

Magic The Gathering Duels of the Planeswalkers: $10

I had the Microsoft Points and I enjoy card games so I bought this after playing the demo. I have been enjoying it and I played one great match online. I hadn't ever played Magic before getting this.

Movies

Stargate Atlantis Season 1 and 2: $40

I got this and season 2 at WalMart. I hadn't seen much of the second season but had seen most of the first.

Going to go play Devil Survivor now

Passed 100,000 and reached level 55 on Gamespot, Altered Beast

Gamerscore

I passed 100,000 gamerscore a few days ago, now around 100,300. I've been going back through some of my older games getting achievements. Yesterday I got about 200 in Perfect Dark Zero and I still have more to go. I also got around 120 in Devil May Cry 4, with another 150 possible. I got the achievement for killing infected in Left 4 Dead, around 53,300 I think. I got another five in Halo Wars and plan to get at least 50 more. I need got about 30 more in Yaris and whenI find someone who has it I can get the win a ranked match achievement for another 15. Whenever my friend agrees to play it I should be able to get my last 55 in Gauntlet.

I have some other games that I plan to pick up some more points on eventually. Dead or Alive 4, Army of Two, and Bomberman Live. I could always complete Ninety Nine Nights for the last 200 but that achievement would be very annoying to get.

Altered Beast

I signed on Gamespot yesterday and saw that I was already 6% into Level 55 Rise From Your Grave. What game? First line of Altered Beast I think.

Almost There

I got to the last level of Luminous Arc 2, of course, like almost all Japanese strategy games, they decided to make the entire game a cakewalk until the last level (which only consists of one boss). What the hell is wrong with Japanese developers (for RPGs and SRPGs)? If you make an entire game easy don't change things on the last level, if you want to make such a hard last fight just make the game kick your ass all the way through like the old Shin Megami Tensei and Persona games (not Persona 3 or 4 or Devil Summoner, those are very easy).

Games

I should be picking up Devil Survivor for the DS in a few days. The 23 I think. I was going to get the new Magic The Gathering game on the 360 for 800 points but they have such a limited amount of decks and even though you have unlockable cards for each one you can't add them in and take away cards you don't want, I don't want a 500 card deck, stupid people.

Eating

Cold tombstone pizza

Random

I like watching the Angry Video Game Nerd, Nostalgia Critic, and Nostalgia Chick.

Games playing themselves, should reach 100,000 today, and two new games bought

Starting with the new Super Mario Bros Wii a new feature will be introduced that will allow you to skip over parts of the game that are to hard for you, the game goes into a "demo play" to get you past the parts that are too hard. This will also be available to newer Wii games that come out.

That's great now people that are even dumber will be able to beat games that should have at least some challenge to them,first youcan never die in the new Prince of Persia or in Bioshock but at least in those games you weren't able to skip over the parts that you thought were difficult. I must havefinished the Mario games when I was four or five years old (one, two (if you consider it 2), three, and maybe Lost Levels (the real 2)), if people really need to use this feature to beat it I see no hope for them playing games in the future. This feature sounds like a horrible idea anyway, for most games they start off easy, slowly introduce you to new things and challenges, and get more and more difficult as it goes on. If everyone uses this everytime the game gets a little hard they will just be using it more and more as the game goes on and using it constantly when they play a game that is really hard. At least I won't have to hear people whine about how "hard" a game like Mega Man 9 is (ITS NOT!).

Gamerscore

I just got another 20 points in Devil May Cry 4, giving me 99,990 achievement points. If my friend gets online I should be able to finish Gauntlet for 200/200, giving me another 55 points.

Buys

Gunstar Heroes XBLA: $5

One of the few great games missing from the Sega Ulltimate Collection. I own it for the Genesis but for 200 achievements and online co-op I thought it was worth $5.

Luminous Arc 2: $30

I picked this up instead of Prototype, I decided to wait for a price drop to get that (thought I did still get my preorder artbook). Though the actual gameplay is nowhere near Final Fantasy Tactics or Tactics Ogre: Knights of Lodis, I like the characters and still enjoy the gameplay. I'm happy that I bought it, it came with the music CD as well as the game. I was going to buy Trauma Center 2 or the new Castlevania but they are much cheaper online, both Luminous Arc games are still around $30 or more online.

About Me

I'm currently 18 and live in Texas.-----------------------------------------------------------I have been playing video games since I was three. Some of my favorite games are Baldurs Gate 2, Resident Evil 4, Ogre Battles 64, Jedi Outcast, Fire Emblem 4, 5, and 7, Suikoden 1 and 2, Call of Duty 4, Persona series, Shin Magami Tensei series, Ghost Recon series, Final Fantasy 6, and Final Fantasy 9.----------------------------------------I usually don't enjoy playing video games unless they have a good story or have co-op, although I have somehow still managed to get achievement crazy on my 360. I think some guys at Bungie said it best while describing playing CTF on Halo 2 and you are killed a second before scoring, you hate it but you also love it and when it's over you want to do it again. The only difference is that now, I want to do it again and again and again to get those damn achievements. The same way I try to get all the emblems that I can on Gamespot.-------- I'll pretty much play any type of game but I rarely ever enjoy sports or driving games. I seem to enjoy Third Person Shooters or SRPGs (more like Langris, Super Robot Teisen, and Fire Emblem than Final Fantasy Tactics) the most.
