Guitar Hero Fund Raiser

Today at school there was this loud music playing in the cafeteria. I went to check it out and it turns out that they have Guitar Hero in there. You apparently could play against someone else by donating a dollar and then rock out! I was up against some 11th or 12th grader who was no doubt an expert at this game. We played "Miss Murder" on Medium (i chose both), he beats me, but just barely. Well i still had fun, and i pretty sure that the council got a lot of money because i didn't get to play until the end of the period. I didn't really care about winning, i just wanted to have fun.

Wait for 5? Or Get Prologue?

I know that Gran Turismo 5 Prologue is coming out in April and im excited to see PS3 get another hit title added to its shelf of hits. But, will the Prologue just be a huge demo of Gran Turismo or is it a taste of it made up of different tracks and stuff. If the last one is yes, maybe i should wait for Gran Turismo 5 to come out. What do you guys think?

Cloverfield: AWESOME! but Bummer Ending

I probably should have wrote this last week when i saw "Cloverfield", but i didn't think to post about it. I have to say i thought "Cloverfield" was one heck of an awesome movie. Its handheld camera footage made the movie seem so real and awesome! Plus, the movie was actually scarier thatn you'd think. This probably has to do a lot with its handheld camera footage thing that seemed to make those things going on actually happening. BUT, I didn't totally like the ending. I don't want to spoil the whole movie, so ill just say that the ending kind of made everything the group teens did seem pointless. But still, i liked it despite its ending.

Is Rainbow Six Vegas 2 Releasing Early Good or Bad?

I know the fact that the Rainbox Six Vegas on 360, PC, and PS3 was a smash hit for the series, since it ramped up the previous failures of the previous game. And i can see why a lot of people are excited about the sequel. Though i haven't played the first game, i will eventually. But my biggest concern with RSV2's early release is will it be almost exactly like the previous version. Sort of like how Full Auto 2 didn't change much from its predesesor to get its self in in time for the PS3's launch. I think it might be a lot like the first one and if this happens, its score could fall because of the same thing you have to pay for again. What do you guys think of RSV2's release?

Resistance 2 = Online King

According to Game Informer, Resistance 2 is supposed to have some of the greatest online options availible. 60 person online matches, 8 player co-op, huge maps, and a great variety of weapons makes it the top game i want of all. I loved the first game, and from what people are saying, the sequel will be even better.

Adrienne the Heartbreaker

Wow, today really sucked. There was this girl who was a great friend of mine i really really liked. She looks so nice every time i see her, and her smile almost made every school day worth it. So i write her a couple poems telling her how wonderful i think she is. At first she said she really like them, but that stopped today (Jan. 7). She told me she though i was sweet, but she didn't have the same feelings for me. Man that hurt bad. I hate to admit it, but i have never actually taken a girl out before. I thought she would be different, being so kind-hearted and all. But she's the same as every other girl ive tried to take out. They say "NO" and make some lame excuse. Oh and get this, Adrienne said "my heart belongs to someone else... in the 10th grade!" OMG. I can't believe her. I think his name was Jess or something, but what the heck! I bet she hasn't even known this guy very long if not at all. Ive known her since the 7th grade and always been there to try and make her happy, but it doesn't matter anymore. She probably digs him for looks more than anything else, while i liked her for not just her looks, but her kindness and sincerity. I guess thats how it basically is nowadays, the cutest guys always get the girls. I don't want to look at her anymore or even talk to her. I tore out all her traces in our 8th grade year book, photos, signature, everything. Hopefully ill find love one day, but i don't think ill ever look at Adrienne the same way ever again.

Hail to the Station

For those of you who didn't know, though probably those who are reading this already know it (yea i mean you GamWiz47), im a Playstation finatic. And im suprised on how little i actually say how much i love the PS legacy.The Playstation introduced some of the best known titles ever made,and made itself dominant against the competition for many years.ThePS3 may not be on top now, but im sure with the much anticipated titles on their, like Haze, PS3 will get another great boost to the top. ThoughPS3 has done pretty well in the past months since its purchases have increased because of the great exclusive titles (Uncharted, Unreal Tournament 3).Sony must have worked hard to give us everything its placed in its consoles the past years. Through thick and thin, it never seemed they gave up. Each of their platforms were taking full advantage of what they could carry, andproved to be what i consider to be the best line of gaming consoles ever. Each oneoutdoing the other in performance and technology. Here is a small word of thanks to each of them

Playstation: Sony's first try to get into the gaming industry was no flop. Unlike theDreamCast or Genesis, the Playstation managed to be worthits weight and was no doubt one of the best looking graphics carriers of its time. Sure, it didn't carry Mario, but it had its own unique line of games to call its own. But it soon fell silent when its younger brother was born.

Playstation 2: Many people can say that most things are as good as the original (Ah Ghostbuster 2, how you fit perfectly), but even more people could argue that in Sony's case, their latest gaming machine was in every way better. It introduced some of the well-known titles that have become some of the best in history (Jak, Ratchet and Clank) and improved itself on graphics, even when they were good to begin with. Some still consider the best console of the console war, even with the Wii, Ps3, and Xbox 360 butting heads at each other. Though recently, Plastation 2 hasn't had many new good game out, though its still fun to play the originals.

Playstation Portable: With another member in Sony's gaming family born, people couldn't be more excited. This time, Sony made a handheld, which was a big chance since the DS was out and the GameBoy Advance was still big. Though some might say it didn't have the best graphics of the three, they could easily say it had the best graphics of any handheld out there. Transferring big titles to the small screen was often, but not annoying. Because a good number of those games were still great (Daxter, Ratchet and Clank: Size Matter, Juiced: Eliminator, Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror). Despite the weird working of it, since it had no 2nd analog stick, the PSP made itself known as one heck of a handheld.

Playstation 3: Out of all the 4 platforms made, you could tell PS3 had the biggest change it graphics. Being packed with so many advanced pieces of technology, it made its older brothers look like weaklings. But they didn't fear long, since it didn't do so well in sales due to the $600 pricing. Even when a $500 platform was availible, it was soon gone. The 20 GB had almost no demand, so it was put out of its misery. Many worried the PS3 would break apart and crumble because of the lack of users and games, but that soon changed. With a drop in price, and more games, it soon sped up the sales and showed off its true power. And don't think its done yet, it still has many games to come that could show us all what a company bent on impressing its users can really do.

Sony shows no signs of stopping its great consoles, and this is a good thing. Anybody out there who has ever insulted a Playstation of any kind is a @$$. Screw Microsoft and Nintendo, they couldn't really bring themselves out back then, and the only reason they are seen now is because the PS3 is waiting for a chance to sling itself far ahead of the competition. A wise choice in anyone's gaming library, go ahead, get yourself a Playstation. 1, 2, 2.5, or 3.

Dad's Birthday

Today was my dad's birthday (Jan. 3). He said he didn't want anything for his birthday since he bought himself a chainsaw to help our nieghbors get a fallen tree branch out of there yard. But we got him a frame of family photos, and Blazing Angels. He said he loved games where you bombed ships, and we figured that game had some involvment of bombing ships.

Happy B-day Dad!

A Taste of Call of Duty 4 Online Tastes Sweet (and a little salty)

I finally was able to get of CoD4's online today. It was awesome! Its intense online battles were well planned out and made to be great for such intense battles. Glad to have finally played it. Unfortunately, several times i encountered online connection problems. I don't why, my ethernet connection was fin. But several times i just couldn't get in a game without it immediately getting me out saying: "Connection Problem". Well at least i got past this. Hope it doesn't happen again.
