Final Fantasy XII: Why I like it

There is a ton of reasons I could think of, that makes Final Fantasy XIII a bad ass game. But I only have time to post a few, so here goes:

#1: The best F-ing graphics in a console game I have EVER seen! Mass Effect 2 was pretty, but this game is freakin GORGEOUS all around. Doesn't matter what part of the game you're at; fighting, running around, cut scene, fmv cut scene. The game looks LEGIT.

#2: No more open world. I don't know about anyone else, but I hated running around in the game. Stopping in towns...for once, the linearity in a game is welcome. FF games are huge and long to begin with. I don't need, or have time, to run around the world in a ff game.

#3: Characters and story are very well developed. Nothing in the game touched me emotionally or anything, but I was entertained none the less. I cared about the characters, even tho I thought snow was going to be a punk ass **** turned out alright in my book. Oh yea, Vanielle is not annoying to me. I don't know why people think shes annoying...

And there you have it! I might post more later. Now I'm off!

The return of the PS3(20 gig edition)

So as you can see in my last blog, I said no more PS3's, and yes to 360 again....

Well my fiancee put that idea to rest. Instead of me purchasing a 360 elite like I was going to(I really wanted netflix, since I got gamefly), my fiancee comes home one day with a refurbished ps3 20gig. I was like "Why?". She said "We have a ton of blu ray movies, You wanted another gaming system and a blu ray player. Killed two birds with one stone".

So now I have another ps3(with an ironclad GameStop Warranty;I use this term loosely..), and this time around I got it standing on its side, and covered when its turned off and its far away from heat generating device. If it dies again....well I got a 2 year warranty..

Goodbye Sony, Hello AGAIN Microsoft.

Last month, my PS3 took a huge dump due to a phenomenon know as the "yellow light of death". I sent my PS3 away in a nifty little box they sent me, Overnight delivery which is bad ass. However, what was not so bad ass was the price tag for getting my system fixed.

Yes, my system was within warranty. I had two months to go. However, I didn't keep my receipt so now I'm being charged $149.99 US PLUS tax. Yes folks, not only is that high priced but PLUS TAX. WTF SONY!!!!! Not only are you not going to own up to your own warranty but you forgot to mention that if I don't have the receipt I void my warranty. Had I known that, I would of kept it. Where the hell did you state that on the box? Why didn't you let retailers AND the public know about this? I guess this is what rape feels like.

Now, its time to head back to the one company I try to avoid these days: Microsoft. I've had two systems. Each died. Got tired of it and bought a PS3, and sold the refurb I got next. Had I known that the ps3 was a POS in disquise, I would of hung on to the 360. Oh well. At least this time when my system breaks, I can get it on warranty and NOT have to have my receipt.

BIG F U TO SONY

PS3's are dropping like flies! Mine included!

Earlier this week, my ps3 decided it didn't want to work. WTF! I took care of that hunk of junk. Babied it and gave it the proper attention it needed.

I did some research into what was happening, and someone on Youtube had the same symptons as mine. We both got The Yellow Light of Death. He discovered that it was his power supply.

Great. He even discovered that there was only one little fan towards the front and that there isn't any towards the back near the power supply.

Now I'm going to have to send it to Sony. I contacted them on Sunday and I still haven't received my box. Hopefully, it will arrive tomorrow. I want it back! I want to play some GHTW and I got The Dark Knight for a late christmas present the other day...
