Sunday post and God of War appreciation

Yesterday brought upon the first smile to my face in a long time and some other stuff was pretty good to. I'll get to the normal news first then I'll explain what made me smile. It seems I will most definantly be getting the wal mart job. Ran into Matt last night and he was like ya we pulled your app as well as Shade's(good friend of mine) and are just discussing where to put you guys. It seems I'll most likely be a unloader which was the exact same thing I was gonna do at ups anyhow so who knows I may work here then possibly just find a way to transfer to U of L laters. I also ran into another housing prospect. My friend gabe is moving into a huge assed house which is walking distance from my secondary job and campus. Its like 500 a month split between 3 or 4 people if we can get that many. Its got 4 bedrooms. I won't however be going to the paperview because Matt got payed for the tickets at the last minute. I don't care really I'm not to into wrestling anymore and was just going cause it was free and might be neat to attend a payperview.

Anyways what made me smile was about 2 in the morning I got a call from my friends who I haven't seen since since Christmas and who I also hung around with in high school and the first years of college before they moved on. We talked for awhile which was fun and there coming down next weekend to spend some time with me since its the weekend before my B-Day. It will be nice to spend some time with old friends and possibly make me feel better for a lil while.

I spent yesterday playing alot of God of War and am now back to the point I was in when I played it about a year ago when it launched but my friend took his copy back before I could finish. This game is so amazing. The first areas really don't impress to much graphically except the hydras and that epic boss battle. When you get to athens is when the really awesome stuff happens such as moving throughout it with a ares destroying junk in the background. This game does things I always liked in games when they do it. Such as when your moving throughout a area cool stuff ether breaking out of the background or events happen and stream as you move throughout giving you a sense that others are suffering throughout this fight like you. I like it alot when you moving through a passage way and you see the soldiers running toward you but the roof collapse right before they escape killing em. Another thing I love is how this game is one of the few that really gives off a sense that your on a epic journey. Never does it feel like you just moving through level to level since all the world is connected its just like a streaming epic travel even though your moving from level to lever you never really realize it. The only place that really feels like your leaving one level to the next is the transition from the boat with the hydras to the land by Athens but it really doesnt matter because the boat is just a intro level to get you used to the mechaniacs anyhow. The story is also pretty rocking as well.
