Well, in my area it is very very very very hard to find, I have been calling everywhere, every store I can think of.  I called meijer and they said they are still unloading trucks this morning.  I have even tried to go to ebay, but I can't aford to pay 450$ for one.  So they hunt continues...hopefully it ends soon...

 I didn't have school today, I woke up, looked on the news, and sure enough, no school for (my town).  So I was happy, I have been playing oblivion all day.

Oblivion-Been playing alot lately, about to beat the main quest line, since I had to school today I have closed like 5 oblivion gates so far today.

My town's christmas parade is today, I am in the band, so we are marching, and it is going to be so cold.  At least we have decent music for it.

After the parade I am going to my friends church, to hang out with all the rest of my friends over night, they are having a shut in, it should be quite a bit of fun.

And today was my dad's birthday.

That's all, thanks for reading,

Hey guys, this post is going to be about random things, as usual I guess....



Gears of War-Yup, still playing it, tons of multiplayer, and me and my Brother are on Act 4 on hardcore, going to finish it soon hopefully, then we will work on insane, woo hoo!  As multiplayer goes, I would have to say I am pretty good, I don't play many ranked matches though (I really should), because I don't like that you have to leave a game after every match, it just irritates me, so I just usually play player matches. I'll get into the ranked matches soon I am sure.

Xbox live video marketplace-So, two blog posts ago, I think, I said alot about it, and how much I thought it was a great idea, and that is was really good, I have changed my mind... These are some things that I think are very very wrong:
-Slow downloads! It took me allmost 8 hours to download Rat Race (great movie), it wasn't even in HD (that affects it, right?).
-When this first came out, I thought when I paid for the movie, and I downloaded it, I got to keep it forever, actually, you get it for 14 days.  BUT I GOT IT FOR 24 HOURS!!!  I don't understand, can someone clear that up for me? please?
-Prices, I think the prices on tv shows are way over priced, movies not so much, but tv shows are in my opinion.  I guess if you don't want to buy the whole season of it on DVD, I see how it is good, but just single episodes are too much in my opinion.  If I want to watch these shows, I'll just go out and buy the DVD sets.

So, there you go, that's what I think is the problem with the XBLVM.

Wii, well, I am getting my Wii this weekend.  There is a good, and a bad side to this... The good side is, I get a Wii, obviously.  The bad side is that I can't have it untill christmas, which means I  will have a wii in my house that I can not play, it is going to be very hard, I'll just see the box, and just want to tear it open, but I can't...Well, at least I am getting one. 

Wii games-Well I am getting Zelda for sure. I need one more, I am trying to decide between three games: Monkey Ball, Rayman, and trauma center.  Right now, I am kind of leaning twoards rayman, what do you guys think?

COD3-I finished it, my review will be up shortly, I'll probably go and write it after I am done with this blog post.  Well, I have an intresting thing to say about the end of this game.  I was playing the final mission, I got an achievment for beating the game, won the war, and as that poped up and the mission was getting over, I died, kind of crazy, so I had to start over at the last checkpoint, it was very odd.

X360 HDTV player- I haven't heard much about it, and how good it is.  Can anybody give me their opinion on it, does it look spectacular, is it worth the 200 bucks??

Well guys, this is all for me.  Thanks for reading,

Happpy thanksgiving everybody, hope everyone has a good one. Mine is going to be alot of fun.

For successfully posting a user video. You're on the air! Don't waste it!

I got it even though the video I posted was my 5th, I guess it takes a certain amount of videos for it to work.

hm....I guess you get this one for logging in on thanksgiving.

Yup, I upgraded after being a member 2 years, I finally upgraded, and so far I like it, I looked at both suscription types, and thought this one was better for me.

My xbox live movie is taking for ever, it's probably taken 6 hours to get to 47% which is rediculous, I hope microsoft is working on this.

Well hope every one has a great thanksgiving.

Well, today is my first day of 5 days I get off from school because of thanksgiving, yes!  A time where I will be able to hang out with all my couisns, play video games, hang out, eat, and play drums and guitars and just mess around, it will be a nice 5 days.

The Xbox Live Video Marketplace: I was just checking it out, and I have to say, I really like it.  I can buy movies for pretty darn cheap, I bought Rat Race and V for Vendetta for a little more than 6 bucks!, that's pretty good.  Plus you can download TV shows, like family guy (no videos up right now), invader zim, and other really funny shows.  You can download music videos too, but there only 5 up at the moment.  Then just clips from TV shows and Movies which are free.

At the moment there are 48 movies available, most are pretty good. There is 47 tv shows I think, with different episodes you can buy with in them, 5 music videos, and a whole bunch of clips (some borat ones that are really funny).

I think microsoft has a good thing going from them, I know I will probably be buying quite a few family guy episodes, south park, and invader zim, along with the movies, I think this is very cool, and the prices aren't that bad etheir.  This is a really cool thing, that I like very much.

Video Games:Still playing alot of multiplayer on gears of war, and working my way through the campaign on cod3.

COD3: I like the campaign, and it is good and all, but I hate the multiplayer, I want to like it, but I just can't, 24 people is a little too many, and with things like I am having to try like 20 times before I actually get into a match, I just don't like it, cod2's multiplayer is better IMO.  The singleplayer is great though.  Once I finish the single player campaign I'll have a review of it up.

The day of the wii is allmost upon us, and I can't wait, I'll be here on gamespot watching the launch coverage.  But I won't get mine untill christmas....:(, but my mom is going to buy one this week, so I'll just have to stare at it.....lol, it sucks, but at least I am getting one.

COD3:So yeah, I got cod3, and idk, it just feels weird, after playing so much of gears, it just feels kind of funny, don't get me wrong, I love it, but, idk, like I am used to allways being under cover, and that's not what this is about, it is more of a run and gun game, I'll put a review of it up soon.

So I just finished the game on casual, and I am not going to give any spoilers out, but let's just say I really really really really hope they make a Gears of War 2. 

General RAAM was quite easy, what I did was hit him with a grenade and after I did that I ran up to the chaingun turret on the other end of the train, and just blasted him, and I killed him in like 60 seconds, it was really easy.

I think this game is absolutely amazing.

PLEASE READ MY GEARS REVIEW.  IT IS UP NOW.

So I went to best buy today, they had a PS3, I played it......this is what I thought of it.

LOOKS: I think it looks pretty cool, I didn't like it at first, but when I saw it in it's big black shiny glory, I thought it looked pretty cool.

CONTROLLER: I couldn't mess around with the motion thing because they didn't have it set like that, so I can't say anything about that. I do not like the R2 and L2 buttons, they should of kept them like the ps2's R and L buttons. My fingers kept slipping off of these.

GAME: I only got to play motorstorm because I had this huge line of people behind me, I think there was an NBA demo too, but I didn't get to play it. I can say that I was disapointed, they had it on an HDTV, and I thought the 360 looks better by far, my motorcycle and my guy were all jagy, when you hit the ground the dirt looked really bad, the explosions were ok I guess......but yeah, I didn't enjoy it.

OVERALL: I didn't enjoy it at all really....which really disapointed me cause I expected it to be really good, and it really wasn't, I am sure I will not be picking one up untill they drop the price, I don't see it being worth it, plus, I don't need that blu ray player.

I picked it up last night, so I didn't get much time to play it, but from what I have played it is probably going to be one of my all time favorite games. I have to go to school in about half an hour, thank god that I have a half day so I can play alot more, I get out of school 10:48, so I have alot of time to play it today. If any of you are intrested in playing it with me on xbox live later that would be cool, even though I don't have my new headset yet (mine broke), leave your gamertag, so far I only see one person on my friends list on xbl who has it.

EDIT: I got a headset today, wooo.

SICKNESS:yeah, I got out of going to school today because I am sick, I have a horrible headache, my nose is all stuffed up, I have a soar throat, and my body aches, so today has just consisted of sleeping, posting on gamespot, and playing video games.  Hopefully I can go to school tommorow, I don't want to get to far behind.

THE WII!: I am so hyped for this thing, I can not wait, and me, being a broke 15 year old can't afford one, so I have to wait for christmas, oh well, at least I get one.  When I do get it, I will get the wii its self, legened of zelda, wii sports (comes with it, I am pretty sure...) and an extra controller and nunchuck, and by the way, I think the prices for the controllers are rediculous.  I am also really hyped up about the legend of zelda.

GEARS OF WAR: I am also really excited about gears of war, and once again, me being a poor 15 year old does not help me.  So I'll just have to mow a few lawns around my sub-division to get some money for it.  Yeah, this looks like a great game, I just can't wait.

DS: I have not played my DS at all lately, probably due to the fact I never buy games for it cause I am allways spending my money on my 360.  So I think I am going to try to get a DS game or 2.  Recomendations?????

PARTY: My friend had a party on saturday.  I probably had never been more scared in my entire life than I was that night.  I didn't think ouiji boards actually worked, but I really do belive that they do now.  All the girls left the party at around midnight or so and all of us guys stayed the night. Me and my friend started messing around with the ouiji board, and we asked it what one of our friends middle name was cause we really didn't know, so we put our hands on it and asked, and after about 2 minutes of it not moving I was like screw this, told you it didn't work.  Then it started moving, and I was like, "holy sh*t, dude, are you moving it?!".  And my friend was like no, look, and he lifted his hands up and it was still moving, so I knew it was moving by itself casue I was barely laying my fingertips on it, and it whet over the letters R-O-B, then I was like I'm done, and we asked our friend what his middle name was and it was robert, so now I was offically freaking out, and we threw it outside.  But yeah it was a fun party one of my friends brought guitar hero, after everyone went to sleep me and my other friends stayed up all night playing, we all beat all the songs on medium, I can't wait for the guitar hero on the 360 since I don't have a PS2.  I think me staying up all night at that party had something to do with me getting sick......

ok, I'm done, and I think that is my longest blog post yet 8).

Thanks for reading, bye.
