Well i just noticed that there was more Gamescore available for Resident evil 5, and immagine my surprise when i found out that once again the german Censorship has forbidden this content (VS MODE) in germany. Reasons for this have yet to be heard, but seriously, What reason can there be for them to forbid content for a game, that has not been censored in any way. There is no different from the german version, to any other found anywhere. Looking at it closely the censorship over here is weird anyway. Games like deadspace where the object of the game is to cut aliens litterally limb from limb comes by without censorship, as does resident evil 5, any many others, so why do they cut out on content. I totally encourage protection of youth from violent video games, dont get me wrong, i played one or another game before that time to, but its bassicly like everyone in this country is being punished for parents not watching what their kids are playing, and gamers in germany especially seem to have to take the heat for it, be being cheated out of fun and fufilling content and more. i also think the fault lies in video game stores, which just bassicly tossed any M rated game at anyone who would buy it a couple of years back, and now everyone goes haywire. There has also been school shootings, and every time one of them occurs, its blamed on video games, leaving out of the picture that the people who commited these crimes where not stable to begin with. I think the whole system needs to be reworked over here, to ensure strict controls on who gets the games, but not censor the content itself. On the other hand with the internet and all, its easier to get games than ever before. What would you guys do to to improve safety regulations for video games? i am curious.

ok the headline makes me sound like an addict, but really i do have to say i really like my PSP, i can play music on it, better quality than my current mp3 player and i can watch umd movies on it to, not to mention the games available are great. The battery life is also very good, up to 9 hours for me and that is with max volume on, could be a bit more, didnt count to precise. Other than that, i can only say the investment was worth it. What else is new, got back from watching my parents house, i am also sorry i havent been writing on my stories, but i have had little time for it. Currently looking at college courses and thinking what major would be best, so its difficult. other than that. things go good. take care all.

After the incident at the ruins, Hector had been taken in by the Elder Astrad, who was the oldest living person in the village. When Hector entered the Elder's hut he noticed a few things, first among those things was the fact that the Elder's Hut was more spacious than the regular house of a villager, this mostly being due to the rank of the elder and the respect of the villagers for this person. The Elder motioned to a small alcove in which sat a small bed and a small closet for whatever belongings a boy might have, Hector wondered why the elder possessed such furniture but didnt inquire, instead, just simply obeying. The Elder gave him a few minutes to get settled and then motioned him to a chair in what apparently was a dining space, in which they would consume their foods.Hector sat and the Elder began to ask him questions * So hector, i want to ask you again what you experienced in the ruins, now i know you have answered allready but while you answer, i want you to look deep within my eyes* Hector did as he was bid and suddently felt himself lose control over his body while the Elder went into his mind, sampeling of the thoughts and fears of a young boy, moving through those thoughts, shifting between emotions and anxiety's until he came upon what he sought, the event as it hapend, seeing it through the boy's eye's as if it was hapening to himself, and so he saw...

The Altar, The Stone upon it, Hector crying out words commiting himself to Darkness, and of all things he saw the stone upon the Altar take shape, obeying a master yet to young to control it, being able to destroy the boy, the devil instead, just disapeared, and then a name flooded through the mind of the boy * GOLAND, SERVE ME* and then nothing, the connection was immediately severed. Hector rocked back and fell off of his chair while the old man gasped for air. This devil, it had sundered the connection between them at the boy's bidding. Astrad was shocked, this boy was able to refuse the will of an elder...but there must be a way to make this of a benefit to the village, but how? he needed to think on that. Hector, this will be enough for today, tomorrow we begin your studies, so go and get some rest. Hector went to sleep, not quite knowing what had hapend. He went to bed and before his head hit the pillow, he was fast asleep, but he didnt dream, at least not a boy's dream, he dreamt of Devil's and Demons and of a sweet dark voice calling out to him, from a castle far away, yet not impossible to reach.

The next morning the elder was awoken by a scream, he hurried into the room he had given the child and looked at hector who sat up sweating, his eyes full of horror, it seemed as if he had been fighting for his life last night, the elder could not explain to himself, what was hapening with the child that he would seem so scared, he shook the boy and suddently Hector looked at him * human cattle, your village is next if you do not hand the boy out to me immediately, my soldiers will soon be at your village, and if you do not give him to me, i will kill you all and feast on your souls and your blood, and when that is done, you will join my infernal ranks.The elder gazed on in horror, there was only one being to have such powers as to speak througha human using the man or women as a medium *Dracula* he gasped. Hector fell forward, unconscious. The Elder knew what he had to do, it was either the village or this boy, and by damn he would not let so many die over the fate of one orphan....

The Riders appeared two hours later at the edge of the village, beyond the sight of the villagers, but the elder knew where he had to go, leading the boy who was in a trance thanks to some powders and a few hypnotic suggestions into the woods, he met the riders not far behind the edge. * here take him, it what your master wants* The Rider looked at him and said, that is only one part of what our master wants and the riders all laughed at the villager. * but we had a deal* said the elder* The rider replied, Our Master does not deal with human cattle* with those words the rider raised his axe and took astrads head clean off of his soldiers, hector didnt notice any of it, being in a trance, he was in a world of his own, alone in darkness hugging his knee's while the world and the people he knew, were littereally burned from this world....

went out to watch the simpsons movie yesterday, it was fun, the movie was great, wasnt expecting very much sondering it was a movie based on the series, they manage to capture all that simpson's charm in the movie, it was simply hilarious.

other things, well my level increased, which is allways nice. but what does it do for ya anyway? id appreciate an answer.

other than that, tuesday my apartment should be finished, and then i can finally move in....YAY

It was a cold night in a village in Walachia, this village was so small it didnt have a name, no one ever bothered, in these days when dark creatures roamed the nights, the last thing you cared about was a name for something made of stone in sticks. It is in this village a boy grew up, an orphan, his name was Hector, raised by a women who was once his mothers best friend and who had the name Annette and would to Hector allways be his Mother, Hector though was a solitary child, not playing with the few kids there were in the village and allways off alone, even against his mothers explicit wishes. It was on one of those journeys when hector ran into the Woods, fighting immaginary demons and ghosts that he stumbled on something, it seemed to be an ancient ruin * wow, what is this place, its huge, i cant believe no one ever found it* said hector, though little did he know this was one of the reason's his mother did not wish him to go into the woods. Hector found a stairway leading into the ruin and followed it down, as he went down the stairs, torches flared up on the sides of the wall illuminating his path, hector knew he should turn back but something down there sang to him, something beautiful and deadly as well. he continued on going down the stairs and following a twisted dark corridor that led deeper into the ruin. Hector continued down the path and came before an altar, and on the alter he saw a statue of a winged creature sitting on a pedastal and on that pedastal words were inscribed, hector could not read, that was for the lords and nobility, but somehow he knew what he must say * Come Forth oh power of Darkness, come forth oh Immaculate being, Come Forth and SERVE ME. Light materialized in the statue and suddently the stone cracked a being appeared, small with a trident and wings, Hector fell to his knees nearly breaking under the strain of taming the creature and bending it to his will, hector was only a child of 12 and didnt have the experience to wield such power, and so he fainted. He was later found by a group of villagers that came out looking for him. the villagers collected the boy and carried him away, one of the villagers, by the name of Derek looked at the alter, he knew the statue was missing, but where did it go? this didnt bode well, and hector had some explaining to do......

Hector awoke from a deep sleep 2 days later, his body had been drained by the escapade of controlling the devil for a sec, as soon as he was awake, word was sent to the village elder who had been informed by the villager group that went out looking for hector. The elder came and sat next to the bed and simply asked hector what had hapend. Hector explained how he was playing in the woods, and how he came upon the altar with the stone creature and what had hapend afterwards. The elder absorbed all this and told Annette that Hector would come to live with him for a bit, that there were things hector now needed to learn if he was to survive. Unknown to Hector, his life had just changed a great deal, and would continue to do so for a while yet.

This is a simply prelude to the true story, so dont worry, its gets better
