PS3s, TVs, Concerts, Oh My!

So it's been a few months since I've posted a blog. It's 2 AM here and I don't feel like going to bed, so I figured what the hell.

So the biggest thing is back in August I got a PS3 and a 50" Plasma TV. I have MGS4, Stranglehold, Bionic Commando Rearmed, Madden '09, Fight Night 3, MK2, and LIttlebigplanet for it. I've been playing it a lot. I also got Gamefly which lets me rent out 2 games at a time, then I ship them back and recieve a new one, so I get 6-8 games a month for $20 so I can't complain.

Also been playing the Left 4 Dead demo, have completed it 20 times thus far, enjoyed it everytime, already have it pre-ordered :D . Also tomorrow I'm going to get Animal Crossing. Kinda lame, but it's pretty addicting, at least the Gamecube version was.

Speaking of addicting, I'm starting to play World of Warcraft again since the new expansoin just came out. I don't have it yet, but my dad does (He's working on his 3rd 70 when it came out) and friends have been wanting me to for a while so figured nows the time I suppose.

Started High School, things have been going well, no problems there, just been hanging out with friends, the usual. I'm taking 2 college classes since I can take them in High School for free, so that's been keeping me busy as well.

So not much has happend since my last blog post and now. I've gotten a lot of new games, too many to list so if you really want to know you can go digging through my collection.

However, last night I did go to my first concert. I went to go see Dragonforce. If you haven't heard of them you can find them on YouTube pretty easily, they are also on Guitar Hero 3 (Through the Fire and Flames). Also playing was Powerglove (they do remixes of game music, like Mario, Sonic, Final Fantasy etc.) and another band called Turisas, a band from Finland that does metalish-viking-folk music. 

It started with Powerglove, they were amazing. Their guitarist was really cool, as pauldrens he had Koopa Shells (Mario) and viking helmets, their bassist (I think?) had Leather Armor, and can't remember what the others had. They did Mortal Kombat, Mario, FFVII, Mega Man and Tetris.

Next was Turisas, the Finland band. Personally I thought they were the best of the 3. They had a guitarist, bassist, accordianist, singer, and violinist. I was really impressed with them, just bought their CD and have been listening to it, once again YouTube if interested. But man, their guitarist (bassist?) was HUGE. If any of you have seen Harry Potter he looked like a little smaller Hagrid. He was good at guitar but geez....

Finally came the reason we went there, Dragonforce. I'm not a huge fan but 2 buddies of mine that I went with were so I can along as well. I thought they were a little sloppy at parts, but that might have just been due to the stage equipment. Overall they were pretty good, they came back and did 2 encores for us, they got a little annoyed at teh 2nd one but oh well (they did Through the Fires and Flames for the 2nd encore)

Then one of my friends got in a Mosh Pit, he elbowed a few people, then got punched in the back of the neck and the back so he called it quits. So yeah it was a pretty good concert.

Anyways so as you can tell not much going on with me. How bout you guys though? Any good concerts, maybe a new system or game you haven't gotten around to blogging about? As always thanks for reading.

 EDIT: Looking back on my profile, I missed my 5 year aniversery here on Gamespot! Doesn't feel like it's been that long. I still remember back before they had the level system or emblems, when the search bar was in the middle of the page instead of at the top, when there were no wedges... i feel old giving a "back when" speech :? :P
