First of all, Hello Again! I decided to check back on gamespot see how it was doing ya know :P, I have been away for while now but have been keeping myself up to date with all the latest from the videogame world. Firstly I updated my game lists and have got some new games and have put in all of my favourite upcoming games. Secondly I'm still with the 360 and I still have xbox live my gamertag is SNiP3R SKiLLZ x feel free to add me :). Also e3 is going on at the moment and there is loads of new stuff coming out of there. The future of gaming looks bright indeed! and now I bid you farewell but fear not for I will now be more active than I have been recently, see you around ;)

So, as you should know from my last blog my xbox 360 died on christmas day :( However seeing as i was out of warranty and didn't want to fix it myself or send to microsoft and wait ages, I decided to just buy a new one. Good job I had enough christmas money! so i now have a brand new one and a broken one. Apparently some people in the UK can fix them cheap, easy and quick so i might give that a try. I have nothing to lose I suppose and if it works I can sell it on and make a profit :) hehehe. also HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY! :P

Firstly, Merry Christmas everyone! hope you all got what you wanted because unfortunately I didn't. On christmas day I was sitting down to enjoy the new games I had recieved for my Xbox 360 when after 10 minutes of playing, small black squares appeared on the screen. In a state of panic I jumped up and quickly turned of my Xbox 360 and back on again. Unfortunately when I turned it back, 1 red flashing light appeared on the front of the console. HARDWARE FAILURE! I thought that it couldnt possibly have happened but there it was on the screen, an error message - E74. This apparantly means that the scaler chip in my xbox console has been taking to much heat and that the soldering on it has come loose :( Stupid 360 design flaws, they just cant cool down. I rang the retail store that I purchased it from and seeing as it was just over a year ago that I bought it, my store warranty is no longer valid. However my Microsoft warranty of 3 years is, which means that I will probably have to send it off for repair. As soon as they pick up the bloody phone that is. Seriously I have been on hold for about half an hour now :evil: Anyway, Merry Christmas!

Yes, I finally got it. And yes, it's awesome. And yes, I would recommened it. :)

Yep, I finally got it. It's Amazing. Also it was my birthday on Friday - I'm 15 now. woop:P

A few good things about this month:

1. It's my Birthday this month :D

2. It's a whole month with no School :D:D

3. I get Rock Band in 14 days :D:D:D

4. Lots of games coming out after this month so I can be ready for them all (with Birthday money in hand) :D:D:D:D

5. FARCRY 2 !!!!!!!!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Just one word - WOW. I knew this year was gonna be big but I never imagined it on this scale. So what impressed you most, obviously I'm with microsoft now and some amazing news, trailers, games, hell i even watched all the stage demos for my fav games. This is just me though, what did you think of E3?

yeah that's right to things to post about, firstly I was just checking my contributions and realised how little 360 games i have reviewed, I reviewed all my Wii and DS games but I have only done 3 of my now 17 game collection, I am giving each one a rating and I will get round to reviewing them eventually. Second is that I got Ninja Gaiden 2 yesterday. Having never played a Ninja Gaiden game before I was a bit curious so I thought I would check it out and it was well worth it because is so good that... that... uh... ... it's just really good ok? oh and yes it is insanely hard, I am getting raped by this game, even on the easiest difficulty.

well, well, did anyone think GTA IV would be as successful as it has been so far, an astonishing perfect 10 from gamspot - wow (better than any game from last year... and thats was a challenge in it's own right) and it is also currently ranked as the best game in the world, that could change but I think it probably wont. Also rock band in europe on may 23 but I won't be getting it yet because when converted to the british pound it costs twice as much as the american version, hmm ill prob get it couple months later on my Bday and I'm also looking forward ninja gaiden 2 which comes out in june ;)

So... what do you think about this new game? will it stir up controversy like the previous games? are you getting it? do you think it will be good? I will probably be getting it, if I am allowed. oh and by the way my Xbox magazine gave it 10 out of 10 which they have only given to three other games in the past so they think it's pretty awesome
