It's been a long time since I've done a blog but Fatal Frame IV being cancelled for the US and Europe ticked me off so bad it made me want to do one just to rant.

I can't believe they are not releasing an entry into the greatest survival horror series ever. The reasoning mystifies me. When I look around the boards I see hundreds of people upset about this so I can't see it as them being afraid of losing money. After The Tormented's lukewarm reception people were still eagerly awaiting this game. That goes to show our loyalty to the series and now they've totally spit in our face. Apparently our loyalty doesn't mean jack to them. Did they just wimp out? Was it worries over sales? WHAT? They're not even giving us a decent answer on why they're not releasing it.

I think they chickened out and went for the more saleable and games. There are a hundred different variations of sports, Mario and Wiimote themed titles flooding the Wii market. And many of them are the same or just not very good. I promise ou, Nintendo. Mario will lose his appeal eventually. Then where will you be? You can't survive on Mario party forever.

I finally have internet and a computer that will run for more than half an hour without crashing. Life is good. We also recently got a Wii, too. It's really nice for the family but I'm still longing for a PS3. Not much else to say except that it's still colder than the freakin' Antarctica here.

I hate winter and I hate snow and I hate cold.

Wow! Finally back! It's been nearly a year. You can blame crappy dial-up internet and then no internet for my hiatus from here. Sorry to anyone who PM'd me I just got them tonight so if you PM'd me and I didn't answer don't take it personally, okay?

In other news though, not much is really going on here. I hate winter and snow and everything cold. Plus my son is in school now so I have to get up and drive him to school because our suckysuckysucky school district does not have bussing. How lame is that? As of now I'm playing Fatal Frame and trying to complete my ghost list (you'd think I'd have done so by now, wouldn't you?) and I'm also playing Silent Hill:Origins. I'm on my second playthrough.

Well, that's about it for me. Hope you warm weather people are enjoying it, because it sucks in the snow!
