My computer exploded!!!

MY COMPUTER EXPLODED!!!

Well... ok... it didn't explode, but it broke! I was using it and then out of nowhere the screen just turned black so I had to press the button to turn it off, then when I tried to turn it back on there's all these multi-coloured blocks everywhere on the screen and it says that Windows can't load, I've tried everything but nothing will fix it and I don't know if it's a virus or a hardware problem but I'm sending it to Dell to get fixed. It sucks though because I've only had it for less than a year and it broke AHHHH I hope they can fix it! So I've been computerless and will still be computerless, except for these... Mac Labs...

ALSO I don't know if you remember my blog back in December where I said I'd do my 2007 Game of the Year picks in April, but well now it's May, but I think I've played enough games from 2007 to make my picks (at least for now). SO when I get my computer back, I will make a blog with all my 2007 game of the year picks for each system.

SO yeah, I've been playing a bit of GTA4 and I'm now at 28% with 13 hours played, it is awesome I love it! Also I heard Viva Pinata 2 was announced (HOLY CRAP VIVA PINATA 2!) which is yay because the first one was fun lol. Also I saw the new Gears of War 2 footage and it is looking freaking amazing so far, it looked so incredibly crazy, especially when he picked up the body and used it as a shield, and also when he did the crazy thing with the chainsaw, I was like "YES!" when I saw that!

School's been hard lately (especially Calclulus 2... damn how much stuff can they ram down your throat in a 50 minute class!? It's so hard to keep up with all the work!) I'm also taking Linear Algebra 1 (kind of hard but it's supposed to get even harder later), Intro to Computer Science (ugh programming in Java is CONFUSING), Intro to Psychology (this class is fun LOL and there's only 3 tests and no assignments ^_^), and Intro to Macro Economics (which doesn't look like alot of work which is good). It's so weird though that it's May and I"m just starting a new semester! I can't wait till August 15 so I have a break again there's too much work.

Well that's everything and hopefully my computer gets fixed soon!

GTA4 is awesome!

YO!

First of all yeah I haven't been here for a week because I randomly got banned for a week... note to self: stay away from System Wars. X_X

But ya so I got GTA4 on launch day and I'm about 22% percent through it and about 9 hours played, and I LOVE IT! It's sooo good. What I like most is that they finally fixed the crappy aiming from the past games and put a cover system and stuff, so they really improved the gameplay! This is the best GTA I've played by far. The one thing I didn't like though was that it kind of started a bit slow, I mean I didn't even get my first gun until like 2 or 3 hours into the game. But other than the beginning it is really cool and I'm loving it. I've played a bit of online but not too much so far, I really suck at the online also LOL I die so much. XD But overall this is a very good game.

Also since my last blog I have beaten Bioshock, and I gotta say the storyline in that game is one of the best I have ever experienced. I absolutely LOVED the game! Amazing amazing amazing! One of my new favourites of all time! The twists were incredible as well. I can't wait to see what they do with Bioshock 2 now which supposedly comes out next year. It was an incredible masterpiece and I definitely recommend it.

Well that's all. :) I also moved into residence and have started school again, and so my time for gaming will be lower until mid-August. I brought my 360 and DS here, so I will probably be playing GTA4, Forza 2, and Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney over the next little while, as well as continue playing World of Warcraft.

Well that's everything. :D

GTA4 gets a 10 from Gamespot!

And Game Informer.
And 1up.
And Gamespy.
and [insert game review site here]

I am now convinced that this will be the greatest non-RPG of all time. I had doubt before, I was thinking "it'll be good but SSBB, among others, will take the Game of the Year awards". But everywhere is going crazy about it. Everywhere is braking tradition of the "avoidance of the perfect 10" by awarding this score to this game. And now I absolutely cannot wait to play it. To see just what Rockstar has done with it. I am now 16 hours from having the game in my hands. And I am already shaking with anticipation.

This game will be brilliant. I cannot wait. :) If you see me on xbox live tomorrow in the afternoon, give me a shout for some multiplayer. I like to play single player main quest stuff when either everyone in the house is at work/school, or when everyone is sleeping, because I don't like people walking in during cutscenes, so I'll probably be spending a good portion of tomorrow afternoon playing online multiplayer. So if you're up for some and online then give me a shout. :)

BTW LOL I just gotta point out one more laughable thing. I love the people with the fake spoilers. XD (don't worry I won't spoil anything here... because I can't...), tonight I saw a thread that said "X kills Y". Then in another thread I saw a post that said "Y kills X". CONTRADICTIONS??? ROFL it's always hilarious reading these fake spoilers the day before big games, I love it. XD

Wow... IGN gave GTA4 a 10...

Wow, their first 10 since Soul Calibur back in 1999! :O The guy basically says in the video review "this is the best game I have played in the past 10 years." WOW I was expecting good but not THIS good! It looks like all of the reviews so far are near-10 as well. Wow could this be Gamespot's first 10 in a really long time as well too? :O

I started playing Forza 2!

YO!

So just yesterday I started playing Forza 2 for 360. It came with my 360 but I hadn't really gotten around to playing it yet, but now that I've started I really don't want to stop! I've played it alot so far in the last day, and right now I am lvl 11 in career mode. All I can say is: WOW! I haven't really played a game like this since Gran Turismo 2 back like 7 or 8 years ago probably, so it's so refreshing to finally play something like this again! It looks like it's gunna be a LOOOOOONG game too, there's just so many races and tournaments and everything to do. I'm definitely loving this game. :) The graphics aren't as mind-blowing as I thought they'd be though, although maybe that's just because we've got games like GT5 coming out soon and Forza 2 is a bit of an older game. Still I'm definitely loving it so far and can't wait to play more!

ALSO I'm playing Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn and I just beat Chapter 3 of Part 2, and this game's definitely keeping me hooked. The only thing that's kind of confusing is that it's been so long since I played Path of Radiance so sometimes a character will appear that you're expected to know from the first game but I'll just have forgotten them! But still it's such a good game and I can't wait to play more. I'm wondering when I'll see Ike and them again as well. :)

Hmm... what else... Oh yeah! I started playing the original Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney (which I bought off ebay a while back for pretty cheap :)), and I'd only played the 2nd one in the series but I now realize it wasn't a one-hit-wonder, this one is AMAZING as well, it's a bit of a shame though since the 2nd one continued directly off of this one so I know some key plot points already, but the cases themselves are just AMAZING, I'm just starting the 3rd case now and it's already got me scratching my head trying to put all the pieces together. Really great game though and this is slowly becoming one of my favourite series!

One last thing: The other day I was sitting around and out of nowhere I was like "... I don't own the Golden Sun games..." I remember playing the first one a while back and getting about 5 hours in, but I want to actually own them now and play through both games in the series completely. SO I ordered both of them from ebay! Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age. They should be arriving in 7-15 business days so I hope I get them within the next couple of weeks! They're gunna be good! :) I remember what I played being REALLY REALLY good and so I absolutely can't wait till they arrive!

Well that's about it, happy gaming! Tomorrow's the last day of work and then 10 days off before school starts. Hoping to get some great gaming and anime watching in over those last 10 days. :)

YO I'm back after like a month!

YO!

OK I randomly haven't really been here for like the past month, probably in the whole April, I don't know why I guess I was just busy BUT BEHOLD I am back now so I'm just blogging to let you guys know that I'm back! :)

ALSO GTA4 comes out in like a week and a half, I already pre-ordered it for the 360 because I heard there's some exclusive downloadable content coming to it which sounds pretty cool. It looks like it's gunna be awesome and I have that whole week off when it comes out! Until...

Noooo! I have to go back to school in just over 2 weeks! In case you don't know, I'm in a co-op program and so my program doesn't follow the normal school year, so I've been off (err... working...) these past 4 months, and now I have to go back to school May to August. Awwwww! :( Oh well though it's been a great 4 months (though like all holidays, it went WAAAAAY to fast). I hope the last 2 weeks are awesome as well! May 4 is when I move back into residence and May 5 is when I have my first day of classes again. Oh well.

That's all for now and I hope I won't go away for a month again!

6) I like to LIVE ON THE EDGE by making a list of 6 things when asked to make a list of 5.

And now I tag YOU, so if you're reading this then you are tagged!

Happy Easter everyone!

YO Happy Easter everyone!

Anyways... This weekends been pretty awesome (4 day weekend :)). I've been doing alot of gaming. I ended up beating Kameo: Elements of Power, and also I have 116 stars in Super Mario Galaxy (I'll probably get the last 4 after writing this blog). I also been playing some WoW and SSBB still. I'm playing alot of SSBB online lately so make sure to add me if you haven't already! (Friend Code: 1032-0911-4014).

Also tomorrow I'm gunna go buy... GAMES! I know I'm gunna *finally* buy Crysis, and also maybe 1 or 2 more. We'll see. :)

My Brawl stats after 1 week

Well it's been exactly 1 week since Brawl's come out so here are my stats so far:

Power Count: 13
Power Time: 20:14
Vs. Play Match Total: 124
Offline Vs. Matches Played: 111
Online Matches Played: 13
Total Damage: 83012
KO Total: 829
Available Characters: 29
Available Stages: 34
Trophy Total: 100
Sticker Total: 141

Woot woot! :D Such a great game, one of my favourites ever! I've played for 20 hours and there's still SO MUCH left to see and do! And then there's still online mode after that! Wow this is gunna last a long time.

Other things... I have 101 Stars in Super Mario Galaxy, I'm really close to beating it, I have all of the stars except for the Garden Galaxy which I haven't started yet (except for the one planet in there that has 1 star). Should be fun, I heard the Garden is the best one. :) Also I've started Bioshock, which is WOW, it's really crazy and atmospheric, I play it with the lights off, it's pretty awesome.

I got Smash Bros! It's AWESOME! *updated with FC*

WOW... JUST WOW...

OK I got it on Sunday and I've already played it for 14 hours! It's freaking AMAZING! Better than Melee by far. I LOVE the new stages, they're all so cool, especially Wario Ware!!! AND PICTOCHAT!!!

My favourite characters so far are probably Snake and Ike, though I usually just play with anyone. XD

I haven't really touched the Subspace Emmisary because I've been so busy with the normal fights and also some Home Run Contest and a few Events. LOL I've already done like 101 vs matches! XD

Like I think this is definitely one of the best games ever made! Probably in my top 10 for sure. This is definitely a classic. Online is pretty sweet also!

I'll edit this blog later with my friend code. I wanna play against some of you! :D (I'm not as good as I used to be in Melee though... haven't played Melee in so long so trying to get good at Brawl now!)

OK guys here's my FC:

1032-0911-4014

Let me know if you add me and what your FC is.
