Well another year has almost passed since i turned 30, but nothing much has changed except the global economy. It has been a year that has seen many good people lose there jobs and fall into hard times which is sad, even my work has slowed down but I'm trying to look on the bright side in that the recession wont last forever.

In the mean time, over the past year I've been gaming allot playing allot of games I've not played much as money is short to buy new games. That is a good thing though as i got to play bio-shock and continue my long quest on fallout 3 with all the new DLC that's out for it.

I'm hoping everyone that reads this blog post is keeping well in theses hard times, but just remember one thing, stay positive and good things will happen. well that's what i think anyway.

So there it is, 1 year into my 30s has been OK at least, but my 31st will be celebrated quietly with a few friends and a mad session on rock-band, oh and allot of beer.

Well what can i say, its been a year since I've wrote in my blog, so what have i been up to. Well for the most part I've been working. I hate it but what can you do, you need to work to earn money to buy rubbish you don't need ha-ha. I have bought allot of games over the past year, Fallout3 on the 360 being my best and most played.

I recently invested in a new DSi which to my surprise is actually quite a good upgrade. The cameras on the DSi are not as bad as the Mega Pixel size says. I found out that taking pictures is really kind of fun, as you will find in the photo's below.

Itsa me Tastycaseyio.

Pretty fly for a gamer guy. (errm maybe not)

Well as you can see the DSi camera is not that bad. There is some stinky games to download like mixed messages which is totally a waste of money. Wario ware snapped is fun and makes you look stupid, just like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBKHJZkbl5s .

Im happy i upgraded my DSlite to a DSi, the bigger screens and better sound are worth the upgrade alone.

Well that's it. I have finally wrote in my blog again, which will probably go unread. But hey at least i tried, even though I've probably only succeeded in making myself look dumb. Oh well, TastyCaseyOUT, till next time.

Hi again, as guy from gamespot uk thought it would be cool to show off his gaming setup, i think id like to show off mine, as you will see from the pic i own all 3 systems and love them all, i have a 50" samsung HD plasma, and look at my poor little HDDVD drive on my xbox360, it doesnt get used much haha.

all my consoles run through my surround sound system, which makes the games sound excellent , COD4 sounds the nuts. I dont think my wall would would be able to take a much bigger tv as its interior timber frame wall and plaster board, or i could end up with a massive hole and a broken tv if it fell off.

Ok just a small blog post to see who wants to leave there Mario Kart Wii friend code here, ill add anyone who leaves theres in the comments. it would be cool to get a 12 player race going so hope to catcha on the starting line.

Its just a shame the people in the US dont have it yet, but you dont have long though maybe a week or so. if you imported it feel free to leave your code.

my Mario Kart Friend code is:

Woohoo, for the first time in years, i have finally come out of the grand national weekend a winner, well only just. Me and my mate put £60 worth of bets on through the whole day and ended up winning £70, so not much of a profit but £10 is better than nothing, my share of the £10 will go towards a couple of beers woohoo.

It was a fun day all in all, made even better as we won a little, but i would of settled for getting our money back in the first place, but getting a little extra is a bonus, ohh well thats it over for another year, it wont be long till next time, and next time i wanna win big.
