Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do Subscribe! (An End Of October Update)

Hello all! Just an update about me and the things that have caught my eye for the past few days since my "So Far In October Update". Pretty sleepy right now because of my sore throat and cough medicine, plus I'm watching Batman Begins on a local channel. Mmm... that's good 576i. Haha.

[size=20]Supreme Court: Violent Game Case. November 2nd has passed.[/size]

Well, the November 2nd Supreme Court case has passed and now for the long wait (most likely, at least a year's wait). Still pretty scared about this law but I'm confident it won't pass but it won't pass without opening new "doors". The law proposed was pretty broad and it'll just be a matter of time till that new "door" will open and present more problems for us (gamers) and narrow and specify what they actually want to target.

I should check GameSpots' news once in a while. Game Informers news seems to be more accessible to me, though.

[size=20]PlayStation 3 HDMI Port Problem[/size]

Recently or maybe a month ago, my PlayStation 3 has been experience problems with the HDMI port. I know it's not the HDTV or the hdmi cable. The PS3 HDMI port has been acting up. Sometimes it would work and most of the time it wouldn't. It has been 2 or 3 weeks since she has been played using the HDMI and I really don't want to play every two weeks. I've been thinking about getting component cables but it's not the same, y'know?!

[size=20]Quotation of the Month[/size]

"The last thing we wanted was Elizabeth to, y'know, "win-the-game-button" or that there's some kind of squad control. I never find that particularly satisfying, especially...um...y'know like I'll play some squad-base shooting and the first thing I'll do is I'll shoot each of my squadies in the back of the head, so they don't get in my way"

From the Great Ken Levine. Listen to his Q&A podcast on Game Informer. Link below.

BioShock Infinite Podcast: Ken Levine Reader Q&A*

That's pretty much it, that's game related! Mid-terms are sorta done. Now's the time for revision for finals. An ongoing and strict process, which is made a bit easier since my PlayStation 3 is "seeing" things the wrong way plus my almost strong will power of managing game time with work time.

Thanks for reading!
