So, yeah. Haven't been active around here for quite a while now. What's new? Well, a couple things.
First off, HeartGold still hasn't arrived yet. 5-10 business days was the arrival time, and today is the 10th, so... fingers crossed.
Second... I started playing Final Fantasy I and II: Dawn of Souls. I haven't tried FFII yet, but FFI is really good. So far, that makes two Final Fantasy games that I like (1 and 10). I've got a party consisting of a Red Mage, a Warrior (Fighter), a Black Mage, and a Thief. Red Mages are freaking AMAZING. He's hitting just as hard as my Warrior in physical attacks, as hard as my Black Mage in magic, and striking as many times as my Thief. Plus having both black and white magic is invaluable. And he looks so bas@$$ to boot... I just wish he wasn't so damn expensive to keep equipped.
2500 for a spell where I am right now? Bull. ![]()
Alright, now... Halo 3: ODST. Possibly my most hyped game of the year (maybe tied with HeartGold, slightly beating out Modern Warfare 2), and I absolutely love everything about this game. $60 USD seems a little steep, and Bungie wanted it t be $30 USD, but Microsoft said NAY. So, we've got $60 for a short Campaign and Firefight... not worth it. Oh, but it also comes with the entire Halo 3 Multiplayer on another disc (Matchmaking, Custom Games, Forge, all the previous DLC maps worth $30 USD, and three new maps worth another $10 USD). So you're pretty much paying $20 USD for Campaign, Firefight, and Halo 3 Multiplayer if you don't count how much the maps would have cost. Quite a deal, when you look at it. Anyways, back to the game itself. Not much to say; it's Halo, polished a little more. AI seems smarter, weapons seem to have been balanced more, and... Firefight. Firefight is simply amazing. Stick up to four people in an area, send waves and waves of Covenant at them, and the fun just makes itself. Kinda like Horde and Nazi Zombies, but much more fun And the skulls turning on keeps it interesting.
That's all for now. Picture here, gonna get around to your blogs soon. See you all later. ![]()

While I did want Samus to win, that was a pretty pathetic move from gamespot IMO.
@EXxile - Yeah, though the Legendary AI is just a pain now.
@mastersword007 - Well, something had to be done.
Hi Brent ... lol i need to check your blogs more often
While B&B losing points was plausible, Samus gaining them was not.
Samus got the exact same score (meaning it gained a huge amount of votes) B&B had before switch and vice versa. Another thing, ''that'' site had several people that did the same for samus, but were the point reduction explanation true, samus would have lost a huge amount of votes too. Gamespot's explanation isn't correct.
@mastersword007 - Well, something had to be done. And if they caught five people with 16,000 votes... who knows how many they could've found if they cracked down on everyone.
That site just ruined their plans by beating very powerful characters one after another.
Kinda glad that the Chief lost, though. What were they thinking putting b&b next to the chief? That was like giving him a free pass forward (until they interfered)

You're in the ODST mood too, huh? I know Halo's good, but it can't be that good. Even God of War isn't that good.
