tick tock: the holiday season is blooming

This will be a short blog:

It is the ninth month of the year. Unoficially it is as good as fall. The start of the Craziest fall/holiday season in Gaming history is encroaching. GTA will not be making an appearance, which is good to level the playing field for a merely a slew of other awesome games. I wish I could afford a 360 because of the multiplayer mayhem and intriguing versatility Halo 3 promises, but still I'm figuring by the time Epic releases the next Unreal Tournament I may not care. Bungie did a damn good job with Halo, but as far as a real online MP shooter, Epic did it first with UT. Still I know I'll be missing out on the fringe of the Halo 3 experience. Being there for the first matches of Halo 2 was monumentary, and luckily I know I'll have friends who are more than welcome to have me gaming at their house on the H3 release.

My biggest hope with this Holiday season is the lineup for the PS3. I've invested in the system for the same reasons I invested in the XBOX of last gen. Half for the better hardware and the other half is that I much more appreciate the "underdog" approach. It takes much more than something to be popular for me to like a system. I guess I'd be a PC fan If I'd be willing to spend twice as much as I did on my PS3. As long as Sony keeps up with the PS3 as being the "futureproof" all versitile multimedia platform I will be more than happy, but its a wait and see game right now. Maybe when Home is released we'll see the needed changes happen to this more than capable for its own good piece of hardware.
