PS3 Version of Mass Effect 2

Well, I got Mass Effect 2 for the PS3 now that it came out. It's a good game, and the interactive comic was good enough. It could have been more detailed though, but oh well. The people Shephard met before don't seem particularly surprised to see Shephard again. Then there's the small text. What is up with the small text? Have to get up and walk to the TV to read it sometimes.

Anyway, it's a good game and should have plenty of play time to keep me occupied.

I just realized my last blog says "Lone Time" instead of "Long Time".

And the final thing I'll think I'll do top games for myself soon. Did it before, but I never finished.

Reviving the Union Awards

Many of you weren't around back then, but at one time gamespot used to create every year an awards show for all the unions on Gamespot, in order to recognize outstanding unions. Sadly, the last one was in 2007 and since then there hasn't been a new one.

It's time for a renaissance however! The Union Awards are back, although we need help from everybody to make this as successful as previous years. Here is the link to the thread where this is being worked upon, we're looking for volunteers and people to help spread this throughout all the unions in gamespot. We want to make this as unbiased as possible and have as many people as possible from the community involved in this project. Let's raise awareness for unions and honor those who've been successful!

Come support the Social Cafe Union in doing the union awards. They're set on doing it and have plenty of support so come on by to help it out.

Lone time since new blog

Last time my blogs were about school. Yeah, boring.

Anyway, I ended up moving from California to Virginia over the summer. Over winter break we got 13 inches of snow. It came down for quite awhile. Trying to write a book, but I'm not sure how that will turn out. Trying out RPG Maker 2003 to make a basic video game. Not sure how that will turn out either.

For Christmas I got a bunch of games. One that I was really looking foward to was AC: Brotherhood. Had already picked up Fallout: New Vegas and Black Ops awhile back.

That's an update with me. Now we'll see if anyone even comments.

My return

As some may have noticed I was gone for a few months. Just didn't feel like getting on GS at all, but now I'm back.

Updates with me would be: School's going fine, got some new games. FF 13, Dragon Age Origins, MAG, and some Fallout 3 expansions. There was though a 7.2 earthquake where I was. No structural damage to my house which is good and only 3 lamps broke. It was on Easter Sunday too.

So how have you all been doing?

Been busy with school

Like the title says and then in most of my free time I go play some v-games.

History is pathetically easy.
Biology is annoying. Not that it's hard, but the fact I'm supposed to be in chemistry. I changed schools and they wouldn't let me do bio last year.
English 10CP is also really easy. Is this really a College Prep course?
Geometry is the same as bio. I should be in Algebra 2. Though math is my worst subject so it may be for the best.
PE is, well, it's PE.
Spanish I is annoying because it takes forever to do stuff. My teacher makes everyone say the words repeatedly individually. We also spend a week or so on a group of words. I suppose not everyone picks up a language easy. A lot of words I already know also.

So that's it for my school so far.

Also, honor the memory of the people who died in 9/11.

School is about to start.

Wonder how my sophmore year will be. Wish I went to a better high school. My high school only has one computer design class and I can't take it again till Junior. I'm going to try to go into some where in the gaming business. Design or producing. I'll just need to work on my work ethic. I'll probably be moving after soph year ends. Maybe my next high school will have a better variety of classes.

My union is dead

I know I just formed it, but because of some game rule the mods wouldn't let us continue with our RPG. So don't bother looking into my union if you were going to.

Formed a union

A Star Wars union with a RPG in it. The RPG is in an alternate universe so what you do can maybe affect what happens later. Just if you're interested in playing RPGs and like Star Wars come check it out.

How was your christmas?

For me, I got so many video games it's ridiculous. I got Soulcalibur 4, Final Fantasy 3,4,7 and 8, (got 7 and 8 because I played them when I was a lot younger, but my dad traded them in before I could finish the) Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Final Fantasy: War of the Lions, Civilation Revolution, Resistance: Fall of Man 1 and Resistance 2, New Super Mario Brothers (didn't even ask for that, don't know why I got it)Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, and I've also had Call of Duty: World at War ever since it came out. I don't know what I'm gonna do with all these games.
