e3 is officially over. Thought n Reactions!!

For starters this was the First e3 i ever watched online and on Gamespot for that matter.I found their coverage late n unreliable at times but they tried their best to give us all every bit of info they could so I cant be mad over that. I started watching from the first day (MS conf) since i gave up my 360 i wasn't interested in watching it.

2nd Day!!! what i was really waiting for, Nintendo's press conf, i was majorly disappointed. I was expecting new titles being announced but most we got was the announcement of 3 games. None i was thrilled bout cept the new CoD:P. Another peripheral YAY!! (sarcasm) and mostly talked bout wii sports resort n wii music. I kno not every e3 would hav blockbuster games but atleast talk bout more software or atleast say u gonna be making some more game for the hardcore gamers.Anyway can't complain much, Nintendo must hav a plan. :roll:

Now for the actual reasons I and every1 else was watching e3, games ^.^

Fallout 3 : looks fascinating, i'm tryin to get the first 2 so i can get up to date with the storyline.

Dead Space: violent,dark,creepy futuristic, what else i gotta say? i want it:D

Fable 2: never played the first but was always interested in it,

Farcry 2: where to start with this, watched both the day n night coverage,

Gears 2: saw when Cliffy B was playin it, i played the first on 360 hopefully i'd beable to play this 1 on PC.

Left 4 dead: great new game from valve. i'm not extremely hyped for it but when i get more info that might change.

The Last Remnant: Interesting new RPG by Square. can't wait to see more info on it:D

GTA DS: 1 game i think no1 was expecting but a 3d GTA on DS, i don't think it'll hav the potential as the ones on the PSP but i'll hav to wait to see

Now e3 08 has come to an end, i laughed, cried,said bad things bout GS ( i'm sorry) and went OMG!! a few times. It was an all-around fun experience can't wait to for the next 1:D

Sayonara GS Users!

Goodbye Lemming, Hello Sheep.

Well i don't wanna go into much details but long story short my 360 got f..umm messed up (forgot what i can n can't say in GS). So i packed up all my 360 stuff n i'll be bring it down to trade for a wii, hopefully i'll be doin this within the next 2 weeks. Even tho the Wii doesn't hav as much games i liked as the 360 (i'd be missing out on GTA4,RE5 n others) SSBB n mario kart wii can surely make up for it, plus since i hav alot f friends here with Wiis it'd make is more fun to play with them than random ppl on xbox lve.

1 more slight bit of news, i haven't told any1 here this yet but i'be been learning how to play the guitar, acoustic guitar actually, been playin for bout 3/4 months. I meant to make a blog bout it but never got around to it. Anyway i uploaded a vid on youtube but i gotta redo it, when its done, id upload it on here.

Farewell xbox 360, I will miss you *sniff*

This morning i went to the gamestore n told them about my 360 problem, the guy checked it and told me it might be my driver and they'll hav to send it up. I hav no idea how long i'd be without my 360, could be a month+ or whenever, and since i don't live in the US it might end up taking even longer:( think i'd just hav to be patient and wait till it comes back*sigh*

My 360 has a problem

Well for some dumb reason my 360 is acting up, i tried to play DMC4 n it just showed me the 'open tray' message. I tried puttin it to stand, restartin and changing discs but still won't play, it even sticks when i try to open the tray. I think this offically kills my entire vacation:(

Konbanwa Friends

Yes yes i know its been an extremely long time since i've been on GS and an even longer time since i made a blog. First off let me start by saying its good to be back:) i'm on vacation so i'll hav enough time to check out all the unions i left behind, i even saw 1 of them die, RIP NOCU:(. It was 1 of my favorite unions, i'll never forget u NOCU:cry:

Anyway for all who don't kno already, my PC crashed sometime October/November (i seriously can't remember) and i've mainly been using my sis' laptop on n off, this month end i'll be gettin either a laptop or desktop this months end. YAY!:D

Gaming News: I recently got Devil May Cry 4 and Burnout Paradise two amazing games, been playing them every chance i got, only prob is my burnout is acting up, i keep gettin that disc error or whatever it says on the main menu, i'll hav to returnit on Thursday and i should be gettin my xbox live gold membership back on Thursday:D can't wait to be playin halo with friends again.

Anime News: Been catching up on Bleach, Naruto and D. Grayman, and been lookin for some more anime. And if anyone knows any good sites to watch anime plz tell me, Crunchyroll and Animethat.com started to take down Bleach n Naruto:x

I am offically a......Lemming

FINALLY!!! i bought my 360 last week monday n been loving it, got with halo 3. I don't really like halo but i wanted to finish the trilogy n it was fantastic:D. And yesterday i bought Gears Of War n Boishock 2 other fantastic games, but the man part of this blog is i got xbox live:D its only the trail version for gold n i think it ends in a few hours or sometime 2morrow, i've been playin halo online from like yesterday afternoon and i'm addicted to it. I kno a few ppl on my list are lemmings so i'm hoping some of u can add me:)

I'm back....somewhat.

Its been a long time since i've made a blog, alot of things hav happened since then, nothing so important but changes nonetheless:P

1st off.. I kno i've hardly told any1 this but i've been trainin in a hotel to become a pastry chef, i've been training there for the last 5/6months. Last week the senoir sous chef told me a chef was resignin so there might be an openin fo me, not in pastry but since i kno most of the A La Carte theres a chance i may end up there. Yesterday the exec chef told me he'll be hiring me when things get abit more busy which mean i may hav to wait for a month or so b4 they finally keep me.:D

Now msot of y'all kno i haven't been on much but in fact i've been on GS almost everyday, i just hardly get on this account anymore, i sometimes pass by a few unions but i'm mainly go to System Wars. I also hav a new account 'Adept_of_Evil' i never did like this 1 so i the other 1 or 2 months ago, i just never had the time to tell any1 about it.

Finally about my gaming news; i've been playing alot of old games, i was finally able to get Final Fantasy 9 n i'm almost done bettin it (maybe half way through 3rd disc),Quake 3 Arena and StarCraft, i also got a few more recent but still old games, NFS: Underground 2 and Max Payne 2. I'm also tryin to get GTA:Vice City and GTA 3 for specific reasons:) I kno a few months back i had a few blogs about which console i'll be gettin, was goin for the 360 for the wide varity of games (sports, racing, FPS etc.) and i was goin for the wii for the free online, smash bros brawl, Metroid, zelda, etc. But i've FINALLY made my decision n i'll get gettin it around my bday (16th sept) or a few days later. What i decided to get isn't what any of u was thinkin but i'll be gettin the .. PSP 2000/ PSP Slim. i was thinkin since i'm more of a handheld gamer it would be easier, my mother or sis always watchin TV so that means i'd hardly hav any time to play. I'll be gettin Burnout Legends, GTA: Liberty City Stories and maybe a 1gig memory stick.

Think thats about it for this blog, if u want to add my new name go right ahead, i may still use this account but barely.

Profile Update and Next Gen News

I haven't been on GS for a long while now, been busy with anime, yahoo n work, Anime wise i've been watching Death Note, Bleach n Naruto. I gotta say outta the 3 i say Death Note is the best for now. ok for my pro update; i deleted a few... umm alot anout 50 + ppl, wasn't really checking. i gotta finish cleaning out my friends list sometime 2night or this week. Anyway to the big news:

My Next Gen Console News/Update

 

I FINALLY decided which 1 to get, i kno i made a few ppl go crzy over which 1 i was gonna choose:P but its final (should be) I choose the Wii!!! only prob is i can't find any:|i said sometime in June i'd get it but i heard that Nintendo will releases some in july, i don't kon how true this is but i'll wait till then, plus i already makin a list of Wii games/accessories i want:

Games:


Resident Evil 4
Mario Strikers Charged
Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Madden NFL 08
Wii Play (just for the extra wiimote)

 

Accessories:

Nyko Charge Station
Wii Points Card
****c Controller


I might beable to get 1 or 2 of the things listed above so i'll have to choose wisely. I should hav evrything set by the time i'm ready to buy it, just hope they'll hav it in stock then.:P

First DS game of 07

   Its abit late but on Thrusday i went and bought Final Fantasy 3. I hav to say that game has to be the hardest RPG i've played:D its alot of fun and kinda addicting, the only prob i hav is equiping weapons; normally (in other RPGs) when ur about to buy a new weapon  they'll tell you if its raise or lower ur attack power but it just shows the power of the weapon and the power of the ones you hav equiped, i haven't paid much attention to that so i can't really complain plus it is the first FF ever, you can't really expect it to hav features other FFs had, plus another prob i hav is it isn't really intersts me as i thought. Sometimes i play it and wonder if i should of gotten EBA instead, oh well i can't really cry over that now since i already hav FF3.

 And my final peice of news: I'm gonna get my next get console (hopefully) around June/July, September for the latest. I still haven't made a clear dessiion which i'll get most days i'll say 360 for the graphics and games and Gears Of War *drool* other times i'd say Wii since its soo innovative. Well the main thing is i'm saving up already, if its the 360 i'd get the 20gig version and a game (GoW), or if its the Wii i'd get 1 or 2 games  (LoZ:TP & Madden 08/ExciteTruck) or a game and Wiimote. (LoZ:TP).

Anyway this has been my first blog in a month or 2, if Easter is still goin on Happy Easter every1. I've never been good at tellin if its Easter or not.:P

Xbox 360 or Nintendo Wii?

Since my bro got the PS3 i'm don't really know which next gen console i should go for. I like the Wii bcuz you can play online for free, the Wiimote is great and some of the games insterest  me (Madden, SSBB) but the 360 has more games i like Rainbow 6, Lost planet,GoW, Halo 3 (mainly into FPS) and the graphics are great.  So which should i get?
