I got Xbox LIVE Gold today and I'm accepting any and all friend requests! Just post here with your gamertag before you add me so I know who you are. I will only be playing Gear of War for a little while, but if you wanna chat, I'm there.

Oh by the way, if anyone on here does play Gears with me and has a headset, it will be the first time any of my friends on GS (except Pig) has ever heard my voice. A lot of people say I sound like I'm 30, even though I'm nowhere near that age! :P

My Gamertag is Gariom.

I've made an account on Giantbomb.com so if you see this, add me if you have an account. My username is Gariom. GB is pretty much already better than GS so I'll be spending most of my time there now.

I swear I must have watched this trailer at least 40 times now. It's just so awesome! If you haven't seen it yet, watch it! I can't wait for this game to come out!

I got back today! And I got my 360! Now you may be asking, why would I love Futureshop? Well, because after Microsoft lowered the 360's price by $50 and Futureshop was having a special to get two free games! So I bought my 360 and got Gears of War and Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 for free!

I've chosen my Gamertag as well. It's The Nitemare. Although I'm not online yet because I have to buy a 15ft. Ethernet cable because the one that came with my 360 is too short.

My 360 gets really hot after an hour though. So I put a fan next to it, the only hot side of it cooled down but the back was still pretty hot, but I guess that's normal. I really don't wanna buy Intercooler. But otherwise, I love this system!

One more thing. I can't wait for Animal Crossing: City Folk in November, it's gonna be awesome!

EDIT: The Gamertag "The Nitemare" is already taken for online. So I will most likely be using "Gariom" as my gamertag. But I'll let you know when I'm on XBL.

Long blog title, I know. But I have an extremely important question that MUST be answered!

I am going away on vacation to St. John's tomorrow, I will be returning in four days with an Xbox 360 in my hands. Very shortly after I will be getting Xbox LIVE. And this is my question to you: What should my Gamertag be?.

I found a gamertag generator and have collected a small amount of Gamertags to use. Well, actually eight. I want you to choose from this list which one you like best. When I return I will count the votes and the Gamertag with the most votes I will be using. But feel free to suggest new ones as well! Here is the list of Gametags to choose from:

1.RenegadeShady

2.The Nite Mare (my favourite!)

3.TheConman

4.FallenWarrior

5.Mr Weasly (also awesome)

6.Value Added (100% random)

7.Danger Monkey

8.Gariom (made that one myself)

So start voting!

It seems as though Best Buy has ended there deal of getting Alone In The Dark free with an Xbox 360. I was only $40 short! Oh well, I'll have to buy it when I go on vaction on Monday, then by an Intercooler (better to be safe than sorry) and THEN save up for GTA IV. :(

Today is Canada Day, for all you Canadians on GameSpot. The day we Canadians celebrate the day Canada was founded 141 years ago today.

I'll be going to my grandparents' house this evening for fireworks. There is also going to be fireworks up on a large hill in my city, you can see them for miles! Its gonna be awesome!

Yipee! Yesterday was my last day of school! I'm finally free for two whole months! Remember back in September when I said that school was gonna interfere with my activity on GameSpot? Well, I lied.

I've also decided to save up for an Xbox 360. I really wanna get GTA IV. I haven't decided on whether to get the arcade bundle for around $200 or the pro bundle for around $300. So far I have $180 saved up, I'm supposed to be getting another $20 soon. And I'll probably be buying it in late July, so I'll have some more money saved by then. But I'll just have to wait and see!

I finally finshed both the reviews I promised. For No More Heroes and The Incredible Hulk. They're not the best reviews ever, as I was in a hurry to get them done, but they're not to bad in my opinion. I would have had them up yesterday, but I couldn't get on GameSpot for some reason.

Oh yeah, Battlefield: Bad Company is a REALLY good game, I got to try it yesterday at my cousin's house. I highky recommend it to anyone who likes shooting things, a deep and involving story, or destructable enviroments.

Well I'm EXTREMELY happy right now. I only have one more exam tomorrow and then I only have 5 more minutes of school on the 27th. But that's not all!

I went out and bought a wireless router today! ALinksys 2.4 GHz Broadband Router. Cost me $70, but well worth the cash! I don't ever have to use that damned WiFi Connector anymore. In fact, I hope it burns in electronic hell! I have connected my Wii, DS, and for the time ever, my PSP. My Internet connection is also, literally, 10 times faster now! And, finally, now when my friend comes up to my house we can use his 360 online.

That's all for now, I'm having such a good day. I wonder what horrible thing is going to happen probably very soon...
