after playing rainbow six vegas for a bit...

i really dont think that i like tactical shooters too much. i do love the ghost recon series, but vegas is just not grabbing my attention. maybe after playing resistance, i realized that i am into a different type of game now than i was when i was younger, but things happen u know? haha well, i think i will be returning this game and looking into purchasing drake's fortune... that game looks quite good. i also ordered the darkness and should be getting that within a week or so. hopefully a 360 is in my future as well so that this summer will be one intesne summer of gaming! peace guys

First entry in quite some time...

Well, haven't posted on here in a long time!!! School happened, life happened, but recently, I obtained a PS3 and am happy to report that I am loving it!!! I got three games with it: Ranbow Six: Vegas; some NBA game (which i returned); and Sega Rally (which i returned). Returning those two games, I got Resistance: Fall of Man. I first played this game when the PS3 came out and loved it. I have been playing it all week and am proud to say I beat it, and you guys can expect a review soon. I will be back this summer on this website much more updating my games more often and getting some damn good reviews in. I need to redo some wrongs in my life, and pushing away video games in order to feel older and do other crap just doesn't cut it anymore. School is numero uno, then video games again. hahaha there's other people there too, but i just love games way too much. Peace all

Check out my reviews!

Wrote three reviews yesterday! They are for GoldenEye 007 (N64), Kingdom Hearts (PS2), and Soul Caliber (DC). read 'em and tell me what you think and recommend them if you think they are good. Write me some pointers here if you got any! Thanks guys! Peace!

You must read this post!

for everyone, it was a very intense and emotional movie, and i think you'll all love it. for the user trap_one (ad all who want to listen), i know what you are saying about hollywood making movies just to make some money, but this movie, as was muniich for me, are different. they aren't all hollywooded out, they are different. they are focusing on the story of two men, and not the entire event of the World Trade Centers. even with munich, they focused on those couple of guys and their fight against the people who killed their brethren. with munich at least, me being jewish played a big part into how i viewed that movie, and the same goes for the World Trade Center. for me, it's a very big deal and very current with everything going on in israel and how the enitire middle east wants israel eradicated... i can't understand hatetred and i believe nobody ever will, but people, many people hare america and want to destroy us. many people hate israel and want to see every jew burned alive. they want to see some of the most powerful nations burn because they want their way of life... and what if they get it? in hundreds of years, there will be new uprisings, and new hatred. why can't it stop? does anyone have an answer fo this question... if you do, and it has anything to do with religion, you're an idiot. it's money and bull **** leaders wanting more money for themselves, wanting to **** over and kill their own people! they want everyone to think their way or no way... people ask me all the time, why do you back america, why do you back israel... you know why? for my fathers before me. for my great grand father coming to this country for freedom. he left germany after world war 1 because hitler was on the rise... he begged all of his family to come but no one listened... they were all slaughtered at Auschwitz. Then, world war 2 comes around, and my grand father wants to enlist. his dad tells him no, but he wanted to do something for this country and for the freedom of this country. he faught japan, and watched many of his friends die. now, people attacked the World Trade Center, killing more people than the Japanese did at Pearl Harbor, and what do these bastards get? A slap on the wrist! Americans are in the middle east fighting, but nothing major. So what happens next, Hezbollah walks into Israel and captures two soldiers... and Israel decimates Lebanon's capital, killing many people as Hezbolah fires back, and the world is pissed? **** them! They want us dead, they want everyone dead. radical islamic leaders around the world want you dead, yet no one understands this. everyone thinks that the world is this perfect place and all, yet people die every day due to war and everything. so here is my question to everyone here... do you want anyone to die?

Just saw World Trade Center... wow...

Well, I just got back from the World Trade Center movie with Nicolas Cage. That is an awesome movie. I don't know everyone's feelings on politics or the war on terror or whatnot, but this movie actually left out a lot about the politics (which was nice). It does have some propaghanda and all, but that doesn't bug me for I am somewhat conservative. It really focuses on the story of two families though, and their struggle to survive with the attack on the World Trade Centers on September 11th. The entire atmosphere of the movie is just amazing... you really feel like you're there. They made it very realistsic, and I commmend them for that. It's a real true story of the suvival of man in a desperate situation. I would say to everyone that they should see this movie unless you have some vendetta against America or hate some conservatve influence in a liberal society. Other than that, check it out. I'm still really speechless about this movie, it was that good to me... Well, that's all for now. See ya!

Beat Kingdom Hearts. Sold two games, and got two new ones...

Well, today was a great day for me. I came home last nite to spend the weekend with my family and all, so I was just chillin' yesterday. But today was just sweet. I beat Kingdom Hearts this morning... and wow. What a great game. And the ending as well as the secret ending were just great! I will be wrting a review for that game sometime this week or next. It was definately one of the best games that I have played in a long time. I am just speechless now about what an amazing game this was... wow... On to other news... I sold back two games today to my local Game Crazy. I got rid of Monster Hunter: Freedom for the PSP, as well as Final Fantasy X-2. For Monster Hunter, that game was just not that fun playing alone. It's really a multi-player game, yet I don't have any friends with the game (let alone the damn system!)... so yeah. With regards to Final Fantasy X-2... I really just don't feel this game anymore. It started out fun, but is just too different from X to be enjoying. I thought about it on its own and not as a sequel, but I still just don't like the game. If this was just even a regualr RPG, I don't think I would have even picked it up. Sorry to everyone who likes that game, but I just wasn't feeling it at all aftr about 20 hours or so (if that). But, I did get somew new games though! I got Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories for the GBA. I have played this game before a little, so I know what to expect. And, with me now knowing everything there is to know about Kingdom Hearts, I think I will appreciate this game much more. I also picked up Xenosaga Episode 1 for the PS2. It was really a debate for me between Xenosaga Episode 1 ad Silent Hill 2, but I picked Xenosaga cause it just felt right. I really want to get into that series in anticipation for the third and final episode coming out this year. I think it sounds like a good series and has a great story from what I have heard, even though the 2nd one isn't as good, but I can deal with that. I also played my Pikman 2 game finally, which I picked up about three weeks ago but never got to play it until this weekend because I don't have a Cube in my dorm. It's a really cool game and brings back a lot of good memories from the first Pikman. I think I will also write a review about the firt Pikman this week cause I now remember a bunch of stuff about it. Those are some great games if you are looking for some good strategy games on the Cube. really fun... Well, that's all for now. I am planning on seeing some movies this weekend. Probably go see World Trade Center and Miami Vice. Those two definately are on the top of my list for movies. Well, until another day. Thanks everyone! Peace and love... Aaron

Update on Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy X-2

Well, for Final Fantasy X-2, I stoppped playing the game this week. I am just too into Kingdom Hearts to play Final Fantasy X-2 because it just sin't as good of a game as KH is. But, I'll probably get back into it next week or something depending on when I beat KH and what new games that I get next and all. We'll see... So, to Kingdom Hearts. I just locked Hollow Bastion and am going through all of the worlds leveling up and stuff. After I level up enough, I believe that I will play through the Hades cup and do it with my team, alone, and then in the time limit. After that, I'll prolly just see what Sephiroth is packing to see how hard he really is. I'll also be fighting all of the extra bosses and all too. And after all of that, I'll go to the end of the world and beat this game. I figure that I probably have another 10 or so hours in the game to go and I'm already over 30 hours in! It is truly a great game and anyone who is a fan of Square Enix and Disney should pick up this game! It is an action RPG at its finest. In other news, I did really well on my American History midterm a couple of weeks ago. I got a 92% on it, so I was happy about that. I also had my second Thermodynamics midterm on monday, and I have a Linear Algebra midterm today. So, I best be going so that I can do some studying for that test in about 5 hours or so. Peace guys and hey to any of my new friends that started tracking me~!

Updated my unions and games a bit

Well, I updated my unions today. I dropped out of most of them because I wasn't doing anything with any of them. If you got a union though, send me an invite and I'll join if I want to. So yeah... I also went through and updated my wish list and tracked games list. Not really a big deal, but I took a couple of games off and added some games. I played Tetris DS with my friend yesterday, and I wasn't really thinking about getting that game, but after playing it, I think it is pretty damn awesome! I really wanna buy that game now! It was really cool. He also had the DS Lite, and I was liking what I was seeing. I am thinking I will trade in my old DS for the Lite one prolly around Winter time. I wanna see if they are gonna come out with any colors for the winter or anything. If you know anything about it, tell me about it! haha well, peace for now!

Here's the next batch of games I'll probably get in two weeks!

Hey guys.. what's going on? I have been playing Kingdom Hearts non-stop! That game friggin' rocks man! I just beat Neverland and am getting some items I missed now that I have the hover ability. It's just an awesome game... So, for my next batch of games I am going to get, I am either getting 3 or 4 games depending on my money situation in two weeks. Below is my potential list, which all depends on if the store even has the game or not. 1) Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories (GBA) 2) Kingdom Hearts 2 (PS2) Definately looking for those two and either of the ones below: 3) Xenosaga Episode 1 4) Dragon Quest VIII 5) God of War 6) Silent Hill 2 or 3 or 4: The Room It may change from that though depending on my mood and money and all. Gonna be sweet though... I'll prolly beat KH in about another week or so depending on how much hours I put in this week and weekend. May even beat it this weekend. Haven't been playing FF X-2 much though, but I'll pick it up once KH is done and play through some more of it until I get some new games. I have kind of lost interest in X-2, but will likely pick it back up soon enough. Peace for now guys!

My Crazy Weekend!!!

Well, I wne to my girlfriends house this weekend to chill with her cause her whole family and all were coming out from New Mexico. For thursday and most of friday, it was just me, my girlfeind, her borther and his girlfriend, and her little brother as well as her mom and step dad. It was kind of cramped being that they live in a two bedroom apartment, but it wasn't too bad. Just chilled out and played some Kingdom Hearts (I am now in Monstro the Whale for everyone who is tracking my progress in that game) as well as messed around with the computer. The real fun though started on saturday. On of my gf's best friends came down as well with her fam from New Mexico. That party consisted of my gf's friend, and her bf, her mom and dad, her sister and her gf, and her brother and his gf. Wow... it was a **** **** of people in a friggin' two bedroom apartment! We were spread out everywhere. We didn't do too much saturday, but sunday, we chilled at the beach in La Jolla, then went to down town San Diego because that place just kicks some ass! It was overall juat a great time that i had while getting to know everyone! Good stuff... Anyways, I am back at school now and got to do some homework. I'll most likely play some KH later and all, but gotta get some **** done for now. Peace!
