I live 3 months behind the rest of the gaming world

I have lived in the same town my whole life. It's a small town, quaint, out of the way, a great place to raise a family. However, if you want to get a game within two months of it's release you had better be a big fan of online shopping and rush delivery. Recently a well know chain of stores came and set up shop in my town and I was excited. There was hope for me and all other gamers in town that we would finally be able to purchase games withing days of release, but oh how we were wrong. Full Auto came out on February 14th and I'm still waiting for it to appear on the shelves. G.R.A.W has been out for 4 days and still no sign, I wonder how long I'm going to have to wait for that. And I don't even want to think about when Oblivion will finally make an appearance. Oh Wal-Mart, why hast thou forsaken me!? 

Abandoning the PS2

I'm going on vacation soon and I'm planning to take my PS2, not my X-box, with me. I'm not planning on playing it, but I do intend on selling it the first chance I get, and selling off my game collection or hopefully trading in some PS2 games for X-Box games.

Splinter Cell: CT man you?

I just played Splinter Cell :CT at my friends house on the co-op mode and I gotta say.......it's almost better than Halo(1or2). Two Sam Fishers creeping around, getting into trouble is just so much fun! The co-op help options are a big part of the fun: Climbing each other like human ladders, tossing one another over walls/at enemies, send ing a rappel rope down to your ground bound ally. The teamwork fun never ends. We set up all kinds of traps and systems for getting through the level like one of us watching over a courtyard(look out) while the other stalks about killing the enemies, luring enemies into the waiting hands of our hidden ally, and funnest of all, both of us killing off two guys next to each other at the same time so that the others horrible dead doesn't alert the other guy......cause he's already dead too!

We only played one level, and set off like 50 alarms, but it was too fun to care. Once we learn some of the more subtle tricks of the game me and my pal will be killing terrorist left right and center!

Bye the way, watching your ally creep up on an unsuspecting enemy and take him out is COOL!

DBZ Sagas............*sigh*

Dragon Ball Z: Sagas was a total let down for me. I was expecting a free roaming, go and do whatever, RPG. What I got was "Follow this path and fight the guy at the end" It was basically Budaki 3, but with a small iota of freedom dropped in, sticky controls, and a crappy fighting system. And the worst part is this, usually when I don't like a game it can save itself by offering a good co-op, or at least multiplayer, feature. However Sagas, despite it's co-op mode still crapped out on me. Why must every Dragon ball game be a disappointment?

More Old Stuff Please!

You know what the gaming industry needs......... more Ye' Olde' Timey games. Like Champions of Norrath, or Baldurs Gate series. Lately it's been a lot of futuristic, or modern warfare games. I wanna pick up the controller and do some old fassion smiting, instead of pushing a button and blowing stuff up. I'll admit i enjoy partaking in a rousing game of Halo, or a jaunt through North Korea in Mercenaries, but I still want some new mid-evil style RPG's to come out.

Ebony and Ivory 2!

I just noticed that B&W2 (Black and White 2) is preparing to make it's appearance in the world of gaming! I can't wait to play this game, even though the Good/Evil choice aspect has been a little played out. To me B&W symbolized everything you could ever want in a game...... GODLY AND UNLIMITED POWER! Come on people, how much fun is it to have divine powers, summoning storms, punishing disbeliever's, laying waste to entire civilizations. This game it just FUN in so many ways.

Sim games!

I'm gonna complain about Sim games now..........

Who actually wants to spend their time living real life in a simulated life!? If I wanna go to work, I'll go to work, if i wanna brush my teeth I'll brush my own teeth, and if I wanna 5 GOD DAMN HOURS trying to balance out my hungey, hygene, need to piss and desire to sleep THEN I'll JUST:

1)eat

2) got to bed

3)Piss myself while I sleep

4) Shower when I get up

Not spend all my time mashing buttons, trying to get that retard pile of polygons to get his life together! I wasted 2 days of my life on Sim games and I say this my friends NEVER AGAIN! Now I'm going to go blow up a North Korean miliary base in Mercenaries, and choke some people to death with the force in KoToR II casue I CAN'T do that in real life. Then i'm going to climb ibto bed and get some real, "non simulated" sleep.
