Moving On

First off I'd like to apologize for that last blog. I was rather annoyed at the time so I was ranting. Anyway I decided that Im going to try to get an Xbox 360 and eventually get a DS. So thats my goal right now, save enough money for at least a core system and a game and then worry about stuff like a wireless controller later. So thats all for now, Peace

Sometimes I really hate being me.

Now many of you are probably curious about my Blog Title. The reason for this title is my inability to make up my mind. This has alot to do with the PSP and the Xbox 360. I cant pick which one to get! For the longest time I saved for a 360 and then I quickly changed my mind to get a PSP. Quite frankly this is driving me bannanas and Im stuck on which to buy. Everytime I log onto Gamespot and say theres a new PSP game it makes me want the PSP but then the next theres a 360 game and I want the 360. I have no idea how to change this. Im selling my Playstation 2 next for 60$, yes its not much but whatever. So I'll have around 260$ and with a few jobs coming I should have more money. The problem is right now I dont have a steady job. I had a paper route but it got terminated so Im nowhere now. I might be able to get a job at a bakery but Im not sure if it will happen. So yeah Im really irritated right now and Im not sure what to do.

Not Sold on Next-Gen

As of right now Im not really sold on next-gen gaming. The 360 is ok but there isnt one game yet that has put me over the top to buy one. The PS3's delay is fairly siginificant right now and there is no possible way that they can sell a million units every month. No one has any idea when the Revolution is coming out. As of right now, Im not sold on next-gen, at least until a killer game comes out. Anyone else feel this way?

Sick of the Urban Theme

You know nowadays the Urban theme in both games and movies is 100% tired and boring. For movies 50 Cent released a sucky movie and now there is this new movie called ATL which will probably also suck. In gaming the only game that has really captured the urban-gang theme is obiviously GTA: San Andreas. There are so many shameless knock-offs like 187 Ride or Die and Crime Life: Gang Wars. Then there are games like 25 to Life, that try to mix it up and still fail. I like the Urban theme but it is the most overdone theme in movies and games and almost all music now is urban rap or emo. To put it simply, unless you can actually produce a movie or make a game worthy of the theme, than just dont create one at all.

Beat Narnia

Well my brother and I beat the Chronicles of Narnia. In general it was a pretty underwhelming experience. There were a few ok levels but the game isnt really worth it. The only reason I played was to help him out. So yeah that all just thought Id update about somethin.

Inside Man shows promise.

As many of you have probably known there is a new movie coming out called Inside Man. To me anyway the movie looks like it will be great. I really hope it is.

People need their own opinon

 IGN overates EVERYTHING. Now the reason Im bringing a topic like this is because lately everyone has been complaining about GS underating games. The truth is that the GS staff writes some of the most critical, yet great reviews around. Take for instance Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsitence. IGN gave it a 9.8  while GS gave it a 9.0.That is my point right there. GS is so much more critical that it actually makes people think about what their going to buy. Everyone needs to stop worrying about how GS or IGN or any other game sites rate games. People need their own opinon. Still GS has better reviews in general and thats why I prefer them over any other site.If you take a more critical look at games you will end up with better results.

Top 100

I finally reached the Top 100! But I sure hope its not a glitch, and I hope its permanent. Now I can get back to writing good reviews.

Level 17 and better reviews

Wow I got another level. I keep shooting up really high. So far Ive gained 2 levels in 2 days. I hope this keeps up. Now the other part of the title is simply this. My last few reviews have been terrible. They were really just an excuse to get to the Top 100. If you take a look at reviews such as Advance Wars Dual Strike and GTA: SanAndreas you will find that they are clearly better written. Anyway thats all.
