I've been super busy both gaming and at school. Finals are just about here, so I really have to start studying... If I manage to actually pass my math course, I don't need anymore math class for the rest of my college life. That's good, but I'm not doing so hot in math right now... I guess I gotta try harder! I also picked out my classes for Spring early this time, so thankfully I got the classes and times I wanted to! Yay! I'm going to take drawing, a history of the use of computers as an art tool, psychology, and earth science. I don't know if everybody knows, but I was trying to major in graphic design. Cool, huh? It might change, but oh well...

Well, now that the boring part of this blog is over with, it's time to tell y'all what i've been playing. Let's see... I guess the first thing is I fianlly finished Borderlands. The last boss was sortta lame, but oh well. I might start a new game with another character (I played asthe hunter). I played online in Borderlands for the first time the other week. It's much more fun than playing alone, but everyone argues about who gets to drive. Lol. I was lv. 28, andthe other three players were under lv. 20, so I decided to be nice and give them good weapons, ammo when they needed it, and health packs. It was pretty awesome.

Besides Borderlands, I got ahold of Dragon Age. It's a great game, although the graphics are really bad for this gen... Like it matters. I played as a female Dalish Elf rogue, fell inlove with Allister, and got a fairly happy ending... I don't wanna spoil anything, so that's all I'm going to say. The DLC with the golem that comes included with the game as long if it's bought before April was pretty bad. I feel sorry for anyone who actually pays $15 for that crap. I give it a 2/10...Not worth the price tag and doesn'toffer anything new besides a partner who just complains and hates you... I started a new gameyesterday since I finished it, and am playing as a famale city elf warriorthis time. I'm planning on falling in lovewith the assassin Zevren this time...

Beat Modern Warfare 2 the day it came out... Shortestgame I've ever seen, but sure kicked butt! A must buy. It was my first Call of Duty game, since I never was intoFPSuntil playing Killzone 2. I didn't know what to expect, but it played well,hadamazing graphics,and the storyline was one of the best I've seen. I haven't played online yet, however...

The MAG Beta is pretty sweet. I pre-ordered the game the other week, as stated in one ofmy other blogs. You get to pick whichPMC youfightfor: America and Mexico, Europe, or Russia and Asia. Of course I picked Russia and Asia, since they look pretty sweet. Then you get to pick what weapons your character uses, and what aid tools you get (like a health thingy). I'm just a plain 'ol soldier, nothing fancy.The more people you kill, the more points you get to level up to buy new weapons and clothing. I only played one round online, however, and actually didn't kill anyone! Since it's the Beta, the load times are pretty long and they always kick you offline to make changes to the game... That's why I only played once...The game has NO LAG, which is amazing since hundreds of people are playing the sameround as you... I don't know if I'm going to buy the game, but I only preordered it for the beta to see if the gameran well... And it does! Woot!

Ialso finished up Bioshockyesterday... It was only $20, and Ialways wanted to play the game, so I was like, "what the heck?". It was one of the best gamesi've ever played. Everyone says the Big Daddys are scary and ruthless... I didn't think so. I got close to a Little Sister, and all it did was push me back (no damage done), and make threats so I didn't get close again. I actually followed them around a bit to watch 'em. Sortta cute, in my opinion. I couldn't bring myself to harvest the LittleSisters, so I just rescued them all. Happy ending!

I've also been watching some anime for the past week. I haven't watched anime in ages since I was so busy gaming, as you can see.I started watching The Big Windup, about high schoolbaseball, and decided to watch Fruits Basket over again (itis one of my favorite anime).

Well, that's all fer now! (thank God)...

With so many great games released this year, I can't afford them all, so I'm leaving some in Santa's hands.

Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time- I haven't played a Ratchet and Clank game since Size Matters on the PSP and skipped out on Tools of Destruction, so I was thinking about picking up the newest in the line.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2: I never really played a CoD game, except a few hours with my bro. on the 360. I think I'd like to check this out, since FPS have cought my attention over the past year. As long as it's not WW2, I'm game.

Assassin's Creed 2: The first in the series was amazing, although really short and easy. I loved the gameplay and storyline of the first, so I'd really like to continue with the story.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days: Yeah, I know I missed out on another great game in the Kingdom Hearts series, but I've been using my money on PS3 games here lately... So I decided to ask for this for Christmas!

Bioshock: I never had a PS3 or a 360 when this game was released, and have been putting it off for a year now. With Bioshock 2 on the way, I think I really should get it before jummping straight to the 2nd game...

Besides some PSN Pre-paid cards and maybe LittleBigPlanet for the PSP, that's about all for games, however, there are some great action figures comming out this month that I really gotta get for my collection. I know, imma nerd... Well you know about the Ratchet and Clank action figures from my last blog post, but besides that I was probably going to try and get some new Final Fantasy action figures to join my lonely Sephiroth and Tifa and 2 new Metal Gear Solid action figures of The Boss and Naked Snake from MGS3...

That's about it, and I may not get anything on the list since I'm in need of a new computer for college...

So Tekken 6 came out, and I must say it's the best in the series. Although considered a "fighting" game, the biggest content on the disk it the "adventure" mode where you take command of the new fighters on the block. The fighting hasn't really changed since the last Tekken games (which is great), except for a few new characters added. The adventure mode, however, feels like it was just a quick add on. I mean, the cutscenes are amazing, but the story feels overlong and you'll probably skip some cutscenes so you can get to the action. When you actually get to play, however, the graphics look really last-gen. I'm not complaining though, since the movies are really well animated. Overall a must have.

So that Uncharted comic came out. I haven't seen it yet, but I do know that the first part is free. Has anyone downloaded it yet? I really want to know if it's good or not.

Anyway, I saw Astro Boy with one of my friends the other day. (more like last Friday, but I'm slow at updating stuff, lol) It was...meh. It was well animated, in my opinion, but the voice acting was bad and the story didn't follow the original story... It also felt like when the end came, they didn't know how to actually end it. I don't want to spoil the movie for you, and I do reccomend this movie to anybody (except Astro Boy fans).I give it a score of 3.5.... It's average.

Anyway, Ratchet and Clank action figures are being released early next month based off the new game. I used to be a huge R&C fan back in middle school, but gave it up after Size Matters was released... I played the demo for A Crack in Time, and though it was pretty good. I'll probably get back into it once I get the new game for Christmas. Lol. Anyway, back to the toys... I think I'll preoder 2 of Ratchet with Clank (one for me and one for my cousin). If you're interested, here's the link that I found them on... (tell me if the link don't work...)

In other news, I made level 22 in Borderlands. Yay! But now I'm stuck... I just made it to New Haven, but these really high level spider things keep killing me when I try to see the chick about the artifact I found. I think I gotta level up a bit more... Oh yeah, the Blockbuster near me is closing, and everything was on sale. While I was at school, my mom went in and bought me 2 PS3 games... Legendary and Enchanted Arms. I haven't played 'em yet, but I really wanna play Legendary since it has kick-butt awesome griffins on the cover. I heard it wasn't good though... Oh well, it was a present, so even if it isn't good I'll still play it.
