Level 39 - Max Force

Today I reached Level 39 here on GameSpot. I'll take this opportunity to talk a little bit about what I've been up to lately.

Spring break is next week, and I am really looking forward to it (as any other sophomore in college would). I have a computer science midterm on Friday, but I've had relatively little work to do lately and have been playing a lot of games. I finally won my 500th ranked online win in GH3, and now the only achievement I don't have in that game is the achievement for getting 750,000 on a single song. Sure, I could dedicate a few weeks of my life to mastering TTFATF or cheating to get the achievement, but screw both of those options. For now I will patiently wait for new songs to be released where it is reasonable to get the 750,000.

Anyways, Spring break is going to be awesome. I'm going to be staying at school and going a few concerts, doing plenty of snowboarding, and of course, playing a game or two. My friend and I are planning on renting Army of Two and going through to co-op, and I also have Condemned 2, SSBB, Burnout Paradise, and a list of other games to play that I haven't finished yet.

To everyone who is either on Spring break or will be going on Spring break, have a fun week!

Pocket Full of Kudos

It's late. It's hot. Hayfever is a foot. And there's crazy thoughts of taking a cold shower running through my mind. So I'll keep this short. I wanted to give Nintendo's front man Reggie some lovin', but like I said, I don't know how much longer I can sit here in this pool of sweat.

GameSpot covers E3 each year, and I'm not to sure how long they've been doing their live coverage, but I just want to give them some kudos for doing a steller job. I haven't been giving the live footage my full attention throughout the night, but it's nice having it streaming while I sit here and do some work and bask in the pool of my own sweat.

As I write this, it seems to be Sony hour. GameSpot have been sharing the stage with a variety of third party PlayStation 3 developers showing off their goods. And I have to say, I'm impressed. It's safe to say the PlayStation 3 has had such a high rate of negetive press, both throughout the media and community, so much so it gives off the impression that it's cool to "Sony bash". Is the large majority of the negetivity valid? Sure. But hardware will always have it's teething problems on release (us PC Gamers get the brunt of that) and when you're a company like Sony that is so often in the lime light any problems they may have are ballooned up in the media.

Anyway, as I was saying, I'm impressed. The catalogue of games coming this holiday season look seriously kickass. They just got done with Naughty Dog and Uncharted, and it reminds me of a few games I've had a good time with in the past. Most noticably Freedom Fighters and El Matador. Same goes with Warhawk and Heavenly Sword. Although I have to disagree with the "realistic hair" the Heavenly Sword developer kept waffling on about. That stuff just looked fugly. Granted, although the a variety of games looked promising, they're nothing to make me "make the switch", as they say. But it's nice to see PlayStation 3 owners will have a good holiday season.

Right, time to go hose myself down.
