ZimpanX has the entire week been eagerly been waiting for his copy of Gears of War arrive, the title of the name being the only thing to occupy his mind during these days and not being far away from reaching total madness, and later that day coming even closer to that limit as he has just read an e-mail saying his pre-order of the game has been cancelled since the product is no longer available.
ZimpanX is in total shock, but quicky gets aware of the situation and start searching for available copies like it was a matter of life and death knowing there are only 2 days left until the game gets released in the region. After about an hour of hectical searching he founds an online store that have extremely few copies left that have to be bought ASAP to have the slightest of chance of getting one though for 5 bucks less than the other store and he immedietly puts into the cart buy and pays and goes to sleep with the lowest of expectations of how it will all turn out
November 16th 2006
A day like all other, though ZimpanX has almost given up all hopes on being able to play one the the most antipated games of the year on the so called Emergence Day, and preparing himself for another period of painful waiting.
The day goes on with nothing really special happening until during nightfall when ZimpanX checks the order status on the online store reading "This procuct was shipped 16-11-2006". Resulting in him having his little own 15 minute party with metal and hard rock music screaming out of his 5.1 surround system and ZimpanX goes to bed that night...with a big smile on his face.
November 17th 2006 ( Emergence Day )
ZimpanX open his eyes, it's 06. 45 November 17th...THE day..Emergence Day. The weather is far from the best as it's raning like crazy outside and he has a class to attend to at 08.15. He arrives soaking wet and doesn not care the slightest...He clearly have others things in his mind, he even has a real tough time recalling what was said and what happend on that 2 hour class.
He leaves and the rain is puring down even heavier, poeple all over running around to find shelter but not ZimpanX...a little water is not gonna slow him down as he determenly walks straight home towards his target.. the mailbox!..witch he founds empty...But no worries he is kinda tired anyway so he takes a 2 hour nap wakes up and it rains like never before, he almost has to struggle to run out the 20 meters to reach the mailbox again and this time it's something in it. He grabs everything without thinking and runs back into the house. It's bills..."yay! or not"...tons of these unperpants and food advirtismentsprints..."omg. teh happiness :roll:" he think, and this big envelop with nothing on it then just his name on it "huh? mm interesting!". He can feel it's something really hard inside and he can't help himself but to open almost feeling like a little kid on christmasday, and there it is! After all the wait he finally have Gears of War: Limited Collector's Edition in his hands witch he ended up 65 bucks for...so beatiful, so sleek...so metal! ( well the case is of metal :P ) what happend after that is now history...let's just say he had the best gaming experience yet of the year of 2006

The End
well that was my little Gears of War fairy tale, though a true one...and yeah it's probably not that good either but I could not sleep so just ended up writing something, to get myself tired hehe. But now something completely different...
...I could not help to notice that yesterday GS has the review of Zelda Twilight Princess for the Wii up on the site as I have that game preordered , and before I clicked my way to it I had number like 9.7 in front of my eyes only to see an 8.8 there witch was totally unexpected but after reading what Jeff had to say about it I highy respect why I scored it like he did, though I doubt the shortcomming that he saw will bother me that much as I don't require games to be totally revolutionizing for me to enjoy and love. And after ealrier today seeing IGN giving the game 9.5 and calling it the best Zelda game ever made, just makes it even harder to wait for December 8th to arrive (European Wii release), But now that I have Gears witch I tell you buy far the best game for the Xbox 360 so far, so these coming days will just fly by. It's basicly worth it to pay that 400 bucks just to simply being able to play that game. As I said best game for the system and would not be surpriced seeing the game grabing that GOTY award later this year.
Oh and also I would like to give a special thanks to a recently tracked user of mine that randomly sent a PM to wanting to make me a new banner, the one you can now see a little higher up on this profile page, Though I would have liked some things about changed it but it certainly looks better than my prevoius Paint made one, and it's looks awesome and I love it :D. So great thx to you lucas_kelly ;)..and one very last thing, a friend of mine showed me this...just werd lol :P
ZimpanX out!
