Well, I started this back in 2007 and kind of gave up on the blogging thing. Not sure why, but I guess it happens. For the time being, I'm just going to post the games that I've beaten since January 1, 2009, which I've been keeping track of anyways. This way I can continue to keep track of all the games I've beaten, and maybe share it if anybody actually reads this. Anyways, here's the list :

F.E.A.R. (Xbox 360)

By the way, my XBL gamertag is "Jack Tripper 79" and my PS3 gamertag is "JannettyRocker". Add me if you want.

So this past week 'Halo 3' came out, and I have to admit that this is the most excited that I've been for a specific game release in a long time. I played through the game on 'Normal' solo campaign, and beat it over the span of 3-4 days. The story is a little confusing at times, especially when you keep switching between being on the Flood's and Covenant's teams. But all in all, this game is great, and had a really good ending. ***Just make sure that you watch through all of the credits, as there's more to the story to come*** I give Halo 3 a score of 9/10. Definitely worth a buy. I have played the online multiplayer a little bit, and it seems great. However, I am more of a single player type of gamer, so I don't know how much I'll continue to play it.

Now, I'm trying to play through my 300+ games in my collection (Gamespot Collection page not completely updated at this point, but I'm getting to it). So I decided that I'm going to start with 'Resistance : Fall of Man' for the PS3. I've had this game since launch along with a couple other games, but never really got in to it very much. It's just been sitting there collecting dust. Well I am pretty far in to the game and am pretty close to beating it on easy, and must say that this game is fantastic. I am actually enjoying this game more than Halo 3, and would recommend it to anyone. I'm going to start playing the harder difficulty settings later tonight once I beat it on easy. I'll give Resistance : Fall of Man a 10 out of 10. Absolutely one of the best games that I've ever played.

Once I beat R:FoM on all difficulty levels, I plan on going back to Halo 1, 2, and 3 and beating them all on the harder difficulty levels, so I should be pretty busy this week.

***Just wanted to update that I did beat R:FOM on easy, and am working on medium currently, and then I'll finish it on hard.***

This is my first ever blog, so that may explain it if it sucks. Oh well! lol

I consider myself to be a game collector, and pretty 'hardcore' in to gaming. I have 300+ games and counting (which I am slowly updating to my Gamespot Games page). I tend to buy a lot of games, most of which I've never actually played yet or beaten. I tend to see a game that I want and buy it immediately, but am too busy playing games that I already have that I never really play these games or beat them.

Well, as of September 1, 2007, I am making a resolution that I'm going to start playing all of my games and I want to beat every game in my collection. So, I am going to forget all of the games that I've beat in the past, and start fresh.

I am starting actually with 2 games, thanks in part to it's sequel coming out very soon. Yes, I am playing Halo : Combat Evolved and Halo 2. I have beaten Halo : Combat Evolved twice this week, once on easy and once on normal. And now I'm working on doing the same for Halo 2. Then I will go back and beat it on hard and legendary. Basically, I'm going to use my blog to track the games that I'm collecting and beating, for my own use. I'll continue to update this when ever I beat a game, and by beat a game I mean finish the store on each individual difficulty level, collect and/or complete everything to do in the game, because I am a 'Completist'.

Currently Playing :

- Halo : Combat Evolved
