Germany And Austria Trip

I wanted to write about my trip in the morning but because photobuket page was under maintenance I didn't have chance to post this one, but no I will :)

Day 1: (Friday)

We did leave Finland 8.05am and landed in Germany at the Munich airport 10.10. There we travelled to Burghausen. That is little village near Austria border. First of course we did go and ate one of the restaunts but mostly first day went going shopping and eating. :P But we also adventured little bit at the old part of the town (very old). And Burghausen has it's own castle! :) It was very good shape because it was never attacked by anyone.

Burhausen was also good because there weren't any other tourists! Very peacful looking town :) Of course the language was pretty big problem... I and my girlfriend don't speak any german and germans didn't speak any english (or finnish). But luckily when shopping you only did have to give the money and thats it :) Of course when we did eat at the resteraunts all the talking did girlfriends father. Day ended pretty quickly and we did go pretty early sleeping.

Day 2: (Saturday)

We did get up early at the morning and travelled to Austria. We did go a little hike to the alps! I have to say that it was pretty amazing! Highest place where we did go was about 1700meters! Almost all day went here but of course we did go and eat at this nice looking restaurant. I ate there very good "Wienersnitzel"

After hard day out we relaxed and watched a good movie. "We Were Soldiers". Very good movie and if you haven't watched it go and wach it!

I tried to watch some TV but everything, I mean everything! Was dupped on Germany! Luckily sports channels exist and you don't some guy to tell what is happening, so I watched sports when I watched TV.

Day 3: (Sunday)

Auf Wiedersehen ;) (Goodbye)

My First Time

Friday morning I'm going to Germany :) This is my first time out of Finland. I don't like to travel... Usually people get very stressed when travelling and always when I'm travelling with someone, she/he gets very very stressed. And my philosophy in this life is: Don't take stress! :) I hope this trip goes well :) My girlfriends take stress almost anykind of subject... but well see. We are going because my girlfriends father lives in Germany (He is some big boss there or something(He is Finnish)) and He has invited us there :) And he is paying hole trip :D If I don't forget my camera I will be taking some pictures and I will post them here! :) I will be back Monday evening but I won't be posting them then. Maybe Tuesday. But If I find some computer which has Internet I try and post some pictures at the weekend.

I did post my first Monthly blog and I think it was pretty good :) But I will be challenging myself to do much better next time! I hope you all liked :)

Monthly Blog!

Welcome to my first monthly blog! :) This one is my 100 blog post also! My first monthly blog will be a test what I should do and what I shouldn't do in the future. I try to bring much as possible to my monthly blog, pictures, info about my games, dvd:s ect. Ì will post all kinds of things all over the month but this will always end the month. But let's start shall we :)

Gamespot Progress:

lvl 21 (17,67%) to lvl 22 (50,6%) = 1.3239

Games Bought:

Oblivion Lego Orange box Blazing angels Guitar hero

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY
Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga
Half-Life: Orange Box (Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode 1 & 2, Portal, Team Fortress 2)
Blazing Angels: Squadron Of WWII (I got this one free!!! :) )
Guitar Hero 3: Legends Of Rock (Guitar + Game)

Game Of The Month:

Orange box

Half-Life: Orange Box

This one was hard! Choice was between oblivion GOTY and Half-Life: Orange Box. Oblivion is a great game don't get me wrong, but I haven't played Half-life 2 or Ep1/Ep2. So this one was very interesting game package for me. Half-Life 2 and ep1/2 are great games! Portal is lots of fun and surprised me! Team Fortress 2 is also good game but I'm not interested on online games so this will be "short" game for me. PS3 version do has some minor problems but not that big what others say. I will be reviewing this game soon!

Game Of The Year:

PS3

Ratchet & Clank

Ratchet & Clank: Tools Of Destruction (9.5/10)

I have to say that this one was hard one! Great games has come out this year, Call Of Duty 4, Assassin's Creed, Heavenly Sword, Guitar Hero 3, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY and much more. So why I didn't choose for example Oblivion GOTY or Heavenly Sword? First I have to say that I love 3D platformers! and this game has all what good 3D platformer/adventure needs: Story, characters, graphics and sound are all great! More of this one at my review.

Nintendo DS

Final Fantasy III

Final Fantasy III (9.0/10)

I love FF games. This is the first FF on DS. And it is great! It doesn't bring anything new on the FF genre but on this game it is enough at it is. Story is when young boy falls in the cave and meets the crystal. You will learn more about yourself and others too. You have 4 characters with you almost all the time. You can choose different kind of job ****s. These are for example: Knight, Thief and Dragoon. Great RPG on DS and must have if you own DS! (Review is coming soon!)

Manga:

Fullmetal alchemist 10 Rave Rave Azumanga hack vol2

Anime Watched:

Anime Genshiken

Midori No Hibi
Genshiken 2

DVD Bought:

Season 3Season 4 Season 5 Movie Kummeli Kuningasjätkä Lapin kullan kimallus

Movies are all great and simpsons are... simpsons :D:D:D

Magazines Bought:

Pelaaja Pelit

Both are finnish gaming magazines. Both are pretty good but sometimes are left behind at the news sections especially because I read lots of info at the internet. But both has pretty good game reviews.

Games Finished:

Half-Life 2 (PS3)
Half-Life 2: Episode 1 (PS3)
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY (Main story, Fighters/"Assassins" guild +couple small missions) (PS3)

I will be very busy, lots of eating and playing to do :D I did get Half-Life: Orange box couple days ago, and I already finished Half-Life 2 (PS3) and started playing portal :) Very funny :D:P I'm gonna start Half-Life 2: Episode 1 maybe tomorrow... but not sure because I'm planning going back to play Oblivion GOTY :P So much games to play! :D It's hard to choose :P

Half-life

So I wont be posting new blog thingys before end of the month so I'm gonna say it now: Merry Christmas Everyone! (in Finnish: Hyvää Joulua Kaikille!) :) Eat, sleep, watch TV, be with your family and of course, play games! :) Don't take too much stress! Lots of people take too much stress because of Christmas but I don't :) This is time for relaxing!

Very Busy...

I have been very busy lately so I haven't been posting so much... I got 3 new games that I want to play :P (Guitar Hero 3, Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga and finally The Elder Scroll IV: Oblivion GOTY edition!!!! :):):) ) Finally I got my copy! I have now finished two guilds (assassins and Fighters Guild) :) Lots stuff to do :P And I'm getting Half-Life: Orange box so more games to play :P Now I have to go to sleep because its so late... good night everybody and be nice because Christmas is coming :)

Game

Online experience and some more

Now it has happened. First time I played COD4: Modern Warfighter online! :) in fact this one was first game that I have played online at my PS3 if I remember correctly... and I have to say, it is fun :) I'm not hooked but I have to admit that playing online is fun :) (at least this game is)

I recently joined "The Monthly Blog" union :) And I will write my first monthly blog post at this month! :) I will continue bloggin like always but this is one thing that I want to try :) So remember to come and read my first monthly blog post at the end of the month! :);)

I have a problem... I have beated all the games that I have. Some twice or more... Now I am waiting more games to come out. This month I'm getting at least 3 games. I ordered "Lego Star Wars: Complete Saga" :) And my girlfriend is giving me The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY edition to my Christmas's present. But... she is giving it to me tomorrow or next week when It arrives! :) She has noticed that I have played my games trough multiple times and said that she will give my Christmas present sooner so I can play games :D Something is happening to my girlfriend... she are starting to like games and shes opinion is different :P

Lots of games are coming but everyone isn't worth getting. Because bad reviews of Kane & Lynch has changed my opinion getting it. At least at this moment... maybe later when I can get it cheaper somewhere... Luckily next week is launch of Half-Life: Orange Box so I'm getting it. Previews says that it has some problems but still... i'm getting it. :) I hope they fix some problems before it hits the shelfs. As for Uncharted.... I haven't yet decided if I should get it or not...

Christmas is coming so remeber: Be nice and play games! :)

Games games and more games

I have been very busy, because all the games that have come out in these couple of weeks. I have been playing Assassins' Creed, Ratchet & Clank, COD4... lots of games to play :) I finished Ratchet & Clank and Assassin's Creed :) I also played Ratchet & Clank trough second time in challenge mode. Now I started playing it third time :P and I will try to collect all the gold bolts and skill points :) Assassins Creed was great game! some bugs but still. They did update the game... Story was interesting and some people has been saying that it was little bit boring but my opinion is that it was very interesting and good! I will wait more of this! I did give Assassins Creed a 9, but it isn't solid 9... It is maybe a 8.5... Biggest problem is that game has big world but nothing to do there...

One big news is that Jeff was fired. This was little bit shock for me... Who will do the on the spot now...(?)

My girlfriend are going to buy me a game :D (Christmas present). I did give him a very small list:

1. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY
2. Lego Star Wars: Complete
3. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

I hope that she will give me Oblivion GOTY edition because I'm so anxious to go back to this great big fantasy world :P:) I noticed very weird thing when I played Assassins Creed. My girlfriend was always watching when I played this game and when I did beat the game my girlfriend said that it was very interesting game. She didn't want to play the game but she said that the story was very intersting and good. And when the sequel comes she want to see it too. Very weird sentence to hear on my girlfriends mouth :D There is couple games that are coming/or is out already. Now there are 2 games that I really really want: 1. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY. This one I have mentioned many many times and I will mention it many many times in the future :P and the second one is: Half-Life: Orange Box. I haven't played Half-Life 2 or episode 1 or 2(including Portal, Team Fortress 2) Both games will be on my game shelf under a month! :)

I have already bought couple presents on my girlfriend :) I hope she will like them :) I don't write them here because my girlfriend may see this blog post.

My girlfriend and have watched lots of James Bond films :) We bought about... 3-4weeks ago a James bond Ultimate collection which includes all James Bond movies (not Casino Royal). And we have bought also Simpsons DVD-Box Season 1-3 :) So we have had lots of fun watching what Homer will do next :D and I told to my girlfriend that there is simpson game if she want to try it. So I downloaded demo on the PSN store. She haven't yet tested it but I want to see his reactions :)

My Little sister did came to see me and my family :) My little sister + boyfriend did bought a dog not long time ago :)

It is all about...

It is tuesday morning and I'm drinking my coffee :) Yesterday my little brother did call me that he wanted to buy xbox360 and I was like :o that is because he has almost always said that consoles aren't his "thing". He has mainly played PC games. Okay... so we did go and buy him a xbox360 (20gig version, with hdmi) and couple games: "Lost Planet" and "Test Drive Unlimited". I also told where he should buy games and which games he should buy. He will buy Halo 3 and Forza 2 in the near future :) I told him that he must come to my place and bring his x360 with if he buys Halo 3 :D With this event I realized that I miss my x360 :? It's price has gone down, here you can get 20gig version in 299 euros (438.15dollars) but if I buy x360 again, I think I will get Elite version because it has bigger hard drive... But now it isn't the time yet...

I downloaded some pictures to my profile :) I have been playing lots of Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfighter :) I played it trough and then started to collect all the laptops :) I found all of them :) But COD4 is great game! it is short but high replay value! Just now my copy of Ratchet & Clank arrived :) and I will start playing it :)

Uncharted and Mass effect did get low review scores here... both under 9, Mass Effect: 8.5 and Uncharted: 8... those aren't bad but still... many other pages has given them 9 or more. I have noticed (like almost everyone else) that gamespot reviews are... weird... But like I have always though, they are only guidelines and you make the decision to buy the game and you make the decision that do you like the game or hate it.

I was planning on writing more but because Ratchet & Clank, i'm cutting this one short. But I will write more when I have the time :)

Week has gone by...

Week has almost passed again and things have happened. I did get my copy of Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfighter and it is... amazing, great FPS and one game of the year nominee on my list. All the missions and things that happen in the game are so intense and spectacular to watch! I Also ordered my copy of ratchet and clank and I'm waiting it to come... it should come pretty quickly. End of the year is very busy in the game department :) So much to play so little time.

But i will cut this one short and write more another day (maybe tomorrow...)
