Hello everybody. Its been a little over a month since my last blog...It feels really really strange doing this right now because I haven't done this in so long. Anyways this is just to say that I am indeed alive and well. I've just been busier than normal. I had wanted to do a Halo 3 feature in video form, but I never got to it. I went to the midnight launch, got some swag and a bunch of footage with my camera, but I never got to put them in video form or add any type of commentary.

In the first two weeks of September I wasn't able to do anything because the videogame Persona 3 was currently consuming me. It was seriously way too addicting, but very fun. Who knew shooting yourself in the head could be so awesome? If I could dream up a perfect role playing game, using today's standards, this game would hit pretty damn close. After I finish this this will probably end up as one of my favorite games of all time, ranking up there with Paper Mario and KOTOR. It is a pitty that this was such a low profile game and didn't get nearly as much attention as it should have. I would highly recommend this if you have the time.

So yeah, after those two weeks I had to cut down all gaming, anime, and Gamespot time by like three quarters because my grades are not close to where I need them to be for this year. If you haven't noticed my posts on my friends blogs have been getting later and later. For the past two weeks I have stepped up my academics time by a ton and am trying to bring up my grades before the semester gets to a point where it will be too late. So this will probably continue for another three weeks until I get another grade report and mark my progress.

Another game that I have been playing is Halo 3. Recently I had to get my disk replaced because I was an unfortunate one who got a screwed up Limited Edition disk. I went to Best Buy and they just opened up a regular Halo 3 game and put that inside of mine because they were out of stock of the Limited Edition ones. I guess it is better than waiting two weeks for Microsoft to send me anther one. So I finished the fight about a week after I got the game, and I have to say that it was underwhelming. I expected some deep Master Chief vs. Cortana conflict, but I got none. I was also hyped for everything in those trailers that Bungie was putting out, particularly those Believe ones. The funny thing is...NONE of that is in the game. I was expecting to be in that awesome battle in those trailers, but it never happens. The last mission of the game was pretty epic, but I would have still liked to be in that great battle. As for the game...Just call it Halo 2.5. Nothing really changes, though the Flood are finally fun to fight for some reason. The multiplayer is fun, just like Halo 2's and Halo 3 will probably be my main multiplayer game for a while. I guess thats really it for Halo 3...

As for anime that I've been watching, it has all been RahXephon. I thought it was a very well done show and I liked it a lot, even though I hear it is very much like Neo Genisis Evangelon. It has a whole cast of great characters and had deep stuff with plenty of allusions and motifs that even I couldn't keep up with. Without going too deep into the plot, it is basically about a guy named Ayato who finds out that he can pilot a mecha called the RahXephon, and follows his journey as he discovers his identity...among other things. I am still thinking of a score that I would give it and it possibly might outscore every single show that I have seen so far. If it doesn't then it will at least tie the top ones.

Well I think that is enough for now. Thanks for reading and until next time. (which hopefully won't be in another month....)
