There is so many good games that are coming out this month and I have only so much money. I plan to get new Fable game, but that leaves me with other games to get like New Spiderman game for the 360, Persona 3 Fes for the PS2, Golden axe: beast rider for the PS3. I have saved up the money for Fable but don't have enough for the others because of my comic collection every Thursday. It costs me around £40-£50 on some weeks and on other weeks it would only cost me £20 to £30 and on top of that I have recently started to read the anime Fruits Basket and I have made a reservation with the comic shop to keep two books aside each week so I can buy them when I collect my comics. The bad thing is that they are £8 each for book and there are around 18 books all round. I have already purchased the first five volumes and I am now expecting more copies next week. The worse thing is that I have gone back to school and have expenses to pay off. You can see the predicament I'm in. The only good news is that I am getting a student support fund in a couple of weeks and it should be around £200-£350. This should ease my worries for the time being. I am also currently saving up to go see my brother in Boston and I need to save up some cash for the Summer. I am hoping when I get over there I can get my games cheaper over there than I can over here. I also plan to get another tattoo. I don't know where on my body I am going to get one. I already have one on my right shoulder of a Manticore, I also have a tattoo on my left arm. I have my surname tattooed on my left arm. If anyone has any suggestion on where I should get my next tattoo please feel free to let me know.

Over the past few weeks I found myself buying new games almost every week. To start off, the games that I have are Lost Odyssey, Bully for the 360, Fire Emblem for the Wii, Odin Sphere, Naruto Uzumaki Chronicles 2, Persona 3 for the PS2, Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker for the DS and Dragoon's Aria for the Psp. I try to my best to play each game but find myself getting distracted by another game. At the moment I am playing Fire Emblem and I have been playing it for a few days now. I have gotten myself to part 3 in the game where I am in control of Ike once more. There is four parts to the game and each part has a certain number of chapters in the game. Part two didn't have that many chapters but it was difficult in the process of finishing it. I usually try not pass a level without anyone dying but I couldn't do it on the last chapter on part two. Someone in my team got taken out and I usually have to restart the game but I didn't this time because it was a character that I didn't really need and I had to survive two more rounds. The person was Danved, I didn't really need him because he was of no use to me later on in the game. You would understand if you had to survive for fifteen rounds without much help until round eight where reinforcements come to the rescue. Ever since I got past that part I found myself playing Odin Sphere. It feels like I have got all these games and I have to decide which one I want to play. It just does my head in. I can say that I could finish Bully for the 360 as I have finished it for the PS2, but there is only one difference between both games. This is that I finished Bully on the Playstation 2 almost perfectly with all classes completed. On the 360 I find the extra classes a bit challenging and that is the part that keeps me from finishing it. I always find myself playing one game and then when I buy a new game I find myself that new game and neglecting the old one. This has happened alot over past couple of weeks. I don't know what I am going to do. I have to get my priorities sorted out before I buy anymore new games.

I am no longer worried about not being able to play PS2 on PS3 as I have got many updates up to as far as 1.93. Most of my games work except for a few new games like Atelier Iris 3 Grand Phantasm. The problem is that the game itself loads up to the selection screen where you have to choose 50 hertz or 60 hertz, no matter what I choose the game will not load up after that. Has anyone had that kind of problem with any other games? I am still disappointed about the region restrictions, Why do the americans get to play any type of game import or not as we people in the Uk have to stick with with UK games. Why have the people at Sony screwed with the UK PS3? I heard that it had to do something to do with what was put into the PS3. I heard that if they had put what they put into the US PS3 into the UK PS3 they would have to pay around five hundred pound for it. I wouldn't mind if had to pay extra, but noooo they had to take out some software which included the multi region chip which would have allowed us to play imports. Would anyone from the UK pay the five hundred pound to get the full PS3?

I think the PS3 has not lived up to its expectations, sure the graphics are crisp and smooth but the thing that I am disappointed with is the backward compatibility. I tried a few PS2 games yesterday but the PS3 would not play them. It said that I needed to download some software that will enable me to play as many PS2 games and it also told me to look at the list on the PS3 site to see what games are playable and ones that aren't. The other thing that I am disappointed with is that the PS3 cannot play multi-region PS2 games. I tried it and it said something about the region of the game.

 

Just one more day until I get the PS3. My brother has got his 360 and I have gathered all the money I saved for my computer. I think it is unfair for the UK PS3 to be less backward compatible. I have been reading articles on this and people are saying this will not make a big splash just like the Wii did.

It's 25 more days until I get my PS3, but before that I have to get a proper Tv. Hopefully I'll get my Tv before the 23rd of March. My little brother wants to get the Xbox 360 for his birthday but is afraid to ask my parents for it. I have figured out a way for him to get one but it is up to my parents to decide whether he gets one or not. I am willing to give up my Nintendo DS along with four DS games for my brother to get a Xbox 360. The thing is that there is this special offer up at Gamestop where if you trade in your Nintendo DS along with four games they will only charge you £130 for the Xbox 360 Premium, but the thing is that I don't know whether my parents would be willing to pay for rest of the Xbox 360 and the thing is that I will not able to help pay for it as my brother's birthday is on the 21st of March. I will be too busy gathering up all my money that I have saved since last year. I will be using this money to pay for my PS3. I don't want to sound selfish but I need all the money I can get so I can buy the games I want with the PS3, oh and one more thing I leveled up within a span of five days. I am now a Gitaroo Man. On the one hand I do not think it would be a good idea to give away my DS as I have one more game to play and the thing is I don't think my parents will be paying the £130 and even if they do there is the fact of buying a game for the 360 as no games come with it at all. The games in the UK are expensive. For preowned game it would cost as much to £40 to £45 and the new games cost £50. I don't think my parents will be wanting to pay for that and I'm sure as not going to pay for it.

I have finally reached level 18. I have decided to get a high def Tv since I am getting the PS3 on March 23rd. I am going to get Enchanted Arms, Elder Scrolls 4 and Genji. I will look for the Tv with my dad as I only have so much money to spend. I am going to get a 32 inch flat screen television with built in high definition.

I finally leveled up to Magician Lord but the only weird thing is that when leveled up it says that I have 61% which means I won't have long to level up to Level 17. Has this ever happened to anybody else? Maybe it has to do what happened yesterday. I couldn't get into my own site even though I was logged in and I couldn't go into any unions either. Has this happened to anybody else? The only reason why I am asking is because when I went into one of the unions today I noticed that no one logged in on the 29th of November.

The other news is that I decided to get the Wii. I haven't pre-ordered it so it will be tough for me to get. I was told by one of the game shops that they would open up at 7am. They said a surplus of Wii's will be coming in. That gives me a chance to get my hands on one. Even better news is that on day it comes out I will be getting paid from my new employers from my new job. From what I am earning from my new job I should be able to afford the Wii and PS3 when it comes out in March. My new job is in a Super Market. I work night shifts. That means I work from 10pm to 6am twice a week. I am getting paid £6.80 per hour so that means I will have plenty of money coming into Christmas. 

Some of my friemds decided to start a union of their own.  They asked me to be a cofounder and I accepted. The union is called anime of naruto and off topic. It would really help if any one out there could come and join as we are short on members. It would really help alot. By the way the tattoo I got didn't freak out my mom or dad. All they said was " At least we won't lose you when looking for you."

I am finally level 15. Not long till I leave Boston, I managed to get most of my games on my wish list but still have to get Shadow Hearts. I,ll just buy it from E-Bay when I get home. I got my tattoo on Monday, I decided to get to get a tattoo on the lower part of my arm, you know the sleeve. It is a tribal tattoo with my surname in the middle of it. I made sure that I could see my name for myself without having to look at in the mirror. When I got my tattoo, the tattooist let me watch a dvd while he worked on my tattoo. I chose to watch Shiaolin Soccer. The tattoo didn't hurt that much, it hurt the most when he had to rub anti-septic on the tattoo.
