I'm also getting surgery on the 20th...3 days before my borthday, uber-bonage. But the plus is , i can milk my parents into feeling bad for not only the surgery, but a vacation was planned by my grandma, and I can't do crap becuae of "recovery" I guess. So, I know...it's a real big dick move, but every cent counts untill I get a job. Anyways, I'm hoping to get most of the stuff in the first week of January, getting most of the stuff except for the graphics card and a few other things. But at the end of the month (if I can get a job) then I should be able to afford it.

Oh, by the way...another big dick move, I am thinking of using a 10% discount at Tigerdirect to save moeny bringing me down around $200, so that could help.

Yea I know, I'm a sleazy ass, but I'll stop once I get my computer ;)

That about covers the whole thing as of now, and i'm also going to see Beowulf this week.

See you allin a week or two! :)

P.S: if theirs anyone who reads my blog and is good at German and would be willing to give me some pointers, I would appriciate it since I'm doing **** in that **** ****

How's It Going? Assassin's Creed, and other things.

Well, this is my first blog so let me introduce myself. I am Zach, and I am an avid gamer. I hope to oneday have a job that has to do with games. So anyways, now that crap is done let's get down to the point. This blog is going to become something of whats going on now, my thoughts on old and new games, and what I think about my current game. I hope to start a video blog once I get a new computer.

Games I enjoy are usually but not limited to RPGs, MMOs, FPSs, Action, RTSs, and so on and so forthe. I usually give any genre and game a chance before I judge it. Though I usually stay away from racing and sports games. I just can't stand them.

ATM, I'm not currently playing anything-- but I did just beat Assassin's Creed on the 360. Which was a superb game in my opinion. The game was almost flawless. The only problems I found were slight graphical things which woudl be like a foot going partially through the ground every now and then, but other wise the Story was amazing.

I hope to go see Beowulf in 3-D this week. I think it looks prety damned cool. Nothing to big giong on in my life, but I am looking for a job to finance my new computer, roughly the same as EternalMax's. But he has a money source, that BASTARD!! Anywho I will hopefully get mine up and going sometime January. I recently had a feeling for some old games that are till better than a lot of today's. And it's an RPG, so that means.....did you figure it out yet? FINAL FANTASY VII. Thats right, this game as fun and hard as hell, but worth every second of it.

Anywho, those are my my thoughts as of now so:
