Hello everyone! I try to put out a new blog every two weeks, but as you can see, I am way far behind. Well that's because I moved to a new town over the summer and me being in a new school takes some getting used to, so I hope you all cut me a little slack on that. :P But with that being said, let's move on to some updates and such, shall we?

Halo 3: ODST (X360)

Now, before you all start moaning and groaning and trolling over why you think Halo is the worst game series ever, well... don't. And just shut up. No one cares. I'm simply here to tell you my impressions on it after playing through the campaign co-op on Legendary difficulty. The review will most likely come within the next few days. So yes. ODST is the prequel to Halo 3. It takes in place between 2 and 3 so this sort of a Halo 2.5 game. Story wise, anyways. Graphics, sound, story and gameplay wise, it is just as good and even better, actually, than Halo 3. The story is more gripping and intense (In my opinion) and I thought that the atmosphere was just far superior to Halo 3. The story especially. The fact that you're a lone ODST member (Well not lone if you have a buddy and are playing on co-op like I did. Haha) makes it a lot more grim and dark, but a lot more interesting. And the fact that the whole game takes place in one night with flashback missions making up most of the game to explain why Mombassa is the way it is in its current state makes it all the more engrossing and fascinating. I personally found the story in Halo 3 to be okay and kind of boring, but the story and atmosphere in ODST was absolutely superb. AND I'M NOT A FAN BOY!! This is the only Halo game that I have ever played other than bits and pieces of Halo 3. So, coming from a non-Halo fan/guru, I must say that Halo 3: ODST is a fantastic game and is a must buy to ANY fan of FPS's. It is an Xbox staple. And if you've never bought a Halo game before, I suggest this one first, because it includes the multiplayer component from Halo 3, but with all of the maps and map packs included, which value at about $20-30 bucks I believe. So yeah. DEFINITELY rent it AT LEAST. It is an excellent game. Expect a full fledged detailed review from me within the next week or so. :)

New Cell Phone With AT&T: Pantech Matrix (Red)

And in non gaming (But still totally electronical) news, I (And by I, I mean my parents) switched over to AT&T from Verizon Wireless because they were unsatisfied with their phones and the easiest way to get new one's was to switch companies. So yeah. I wanted an Iphone, and I could've gotten one, but in the end, I wanted a simple messaging phone with physical keys, so I went with the Pantech Matrix. It's actually a dual-slider phone, as in it also has a numerical keypad, but this picture just shows the QWERTY keyboard. So far, it's a pretty reliable phone. Seems sturdy. Has a nice battery life. Keys feel good. Looks great. I like the shiny red color too. :D So yeah. Not major news, but it is a pretty hefty upgade from my Samsung Juke. Anyways, I think that's all. Uhmmmmm. Yep. I'll try to have another blog out in about a week or two, now that i'm a lot more settled in. Sooooo..... yep. Peace. ^_^
