November '12

Very busy month this November. I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving, 'cuz I certainly did :) My Thanksgiving week started with the purchase of a Wii U. It's a fantastic little machine. I can't wait to see what Nintendo's got in store for it. Else wise, my Thanksgiving was spent enjoying with family and friends. We had all sorts of good food, and we indulged in some Wii Bowling and NFL Blitz 2012. In the mean time, I've been enjoying Nintendoland and New Super Mario Bros U. I also intend to get Epic Mickey 2 and the new Sonic kart racer for it, and the Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion for 3DS. Of course, the other major news this month gaming wise is Halo 4. It's absolutely fantastic. 343 really proved that they can handle the Halo series with this game and I look forward to their future efforts. The only game I've purchased is a fun, chaotic combat racer called Wrecked: Revenge Revisited from Xbox Live Arcade. The local multiplayer is fun and absolutely hilarious when played with the right friends. I've seen two movies this month: Wreck-It Ralph and SkyFall. Wreck-It Ralph was wonderful. I highly recommend it to those you who would normally be turned off to family entertainment, because this film is worth a look. It's really funny and packed to the gills with great gaming references. Disney really did their homework. The new Bond film is just plain fun. There are a ton of nods to past Bond films, and the writing and acting are both excellent. My job is going well, although the thing with GameStop didn't work out. On the upside, that means I get to see my brother for Christmas, so it's a fair trade. Finally, my girlfriend and I are doing really well. No drama to report, for once :)
