PC Gaming

I've tried PC gaming before, and it is no where near as amazing as these crazy hermits would have you believe. The best way to go is console gaming, better yet, get everything, including a gaming PC if you've got the money. If you go with PC you are very limited in genres, pretty much all you have is shooters, real time strategies, and WRPGS. Now, I like all those genres, but come on, the reason I play console gaming is because I like soem variety in what I play. THe other thing is, no matter what you say, PC gamign is expensive. Even if you build it yourself it will cost more than a console. If you want to build one that you won't have to update with new hardware in a year, it will cost more than all three consoles. Its been about a year or so now since I've switched back to consoles and I'll tell you, I am having waaaaaaay more fun with it.

Ninja Gaiden 2.....

I was pretty excited about this game until I saw that you fought people with rocket launchers. Thats jsut too rediculous for even me. I might have still considered purchasing it if all i had was my 360, but i have a Wii and PS3 as well so there are plenty of other games I would rather play.

Quick Announcement...

As you may or may not have noticed, I am coming up on my 50th review, and I've decided to make it something special. Its going to be written about my favorite game in a long time, Super Mario Galaxy for the Nintendo Wii. Do not expect it to be out soon, as I am still working on 100% completion, and then I plan to go through several drafts of my review and perfecting it, I'll announce when it is up, and I hope you all enjoy it and find it informative.

Went to the mall today......

I went to the mall today to get some new shoes and stopped by gamestop. I got Condemned: Criminal Origins for the 360 for $14.99, Magic: battlegrounds for Xbox for $4.99 and Panzer Dragoon Orta for Xbox for $6.99! Not a bad haul I think.

My top ten games of all time.

In order from 1-10, 1 being my favorite.

1. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

2. Mass Effect

3. Bioshock

4. Starwars: Knights of the Old Republic

5. Super Mario Galaxy

6. Halo 3

7. Final Fantasy X

8. The Orange Box

9. Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance

10. Final Fantasy VII

Super Mario Galaxy

Super Mario Galaxy is awesome. If you have a Wii go out and get it, its the most fun i've had in a long time. I'll write a review once I beat, but no hurry because I'm savoring every moment of this masterpiece.
