Today was the day that I beat Borderlands. It was a bit bitter sweet, I got the satisfaction of knowing that I did it all by myself, but I was bitter about the fact that my friend who moved to New York has become a total douche and refused to respond to my messages to play. What can I do though?
The game itself was solid, but the GS review was dead on, it gets lonely alone. The gameplay was much like fallout 3, but it had a personality all its own, and I think thats really what sucked me in. The robots, all of them named "clap trap" (what does that mean? Sounds like that girl I was with tonight.) were probably my favorite characters. They were goofy, they danced and honesly you will probably wish they were real just so you could hug one. The other characters are more or less the cookie cutter models. You have the mad doctor Zed, the sleezy gun merch and a couple of hicks in between there.
Anyways, it was good, you should check it out if you get the chance. Next was Uncharted 2, and just like the first I was absolutely stunned. It was beautiful, it was fun, and the story was great. The game did a really good job of sucking me in. I literally couldn't put the controller down, so I ended up beating it in 2 sittings or so, but I'll tell you first hand it was worth every dollar. It took me about 11 hours to beat it on very hard, which may not be a really long game, but there are tons of goodies to go back and earn (cheats, models, videos, tweaks, etc.)
Third, Ratchet and Clank: Search for Booty is very meh. I love ratchet and clank, its honestly been one of my favorite franchises since I first played it the Christmas it came out (and took me completely by surprise). However, this was obviously a cheap sony cash in. The last game, Future, ended in a cliff hanger, and the only way to find out what happens is to play this expansion type thing. Its honesly boring, I am trying to finish it to be prepared for CIT but its really hard. It all seems to take place on one planet, and its all very linear. You also get your guns, rather than buying them.
Finally, I am a huge supporter of this game, for the love of god get demons souls, I payed $70 for it and let me tell you it was the best $70 I've ever put on a counter. The game is beautiful in every sense, and completely unforgettable. Nintendo and Konami should take some notes on this one, because I'll never see games like this the same way again, so if the next Zelda and Castlevania games aren't this incredible, I'll feel a bit jaded. All I can do is ask that you please try this game, but it really might change your view on the industry as well, this is what an incredible game looks and plays like.
So there are my quick reviews. To conclude:
Borderlands - buy
Uncharted 2 - buy
Ratchet and Clank: Search for Booty - I'll say pass, but I haven't completed it yet.
Demons souls - GOD DAMN IT BUY THIS GAME!

Haven't been here in a long time, just checked on how it was going, kinda quiet, later!
Sweet, today I played my first ever show. It was a battle of the bands and it was sweet. We only had like 10 minutes, and we only played three cover songs, and we didn't win, but that's cool. We still played, which is what matters.
It's pretty nerve-racking getting ready to step onstage for your first show. But man, once you get on and look at the crows the tension fades and you just play...not being able to see the audience helps alot too 
So we played 8th out of 9, and we covered "Cold Shot" by Stevie Ray Vaughan, "Swing life Away" by rise Against, and did a small instrumental (Chuck Berry Style). For being the youngest people and the youngest band there we did really well, atleast that's what everyone told us.
So yeah....it was fun.
