It isn't very often where I get in the mood to do a marathon gaming session but the release of God of War Collection on the PS3 has done just that. I have been playing God of War 1, 2 Chains of Olympus, and the E3 demo nonstop (aside from work and sleep) and have been having a blast! I cannot wait until the release of God of War 3 so that I can satiate my Kratos addiction.

I must say that I am thoroughly enjoying being back in the gaming mode and being a regular contributor here on Gamespot. I am looking forward to playing some games online as well but I no longer have a network of friends that play games. Feel free to add me as a friend on Xbox Live or the PSN and I will happily add you.

I have to admit, I was skeptical when Sony announced the PSP Go with a price point of $250, but now that I have one I have to say that this system has been fantastic. I picked up the 16GB M2 memory card so my system memory would be at 32GB and have loaded plenty of PSP and PSOne games and have found myself reliving the joys of Final Fantasy VII. I know that some people rip this game a new one for having a loose story and spotty gameplay mechanics, but I remember this game being a defining moment in my life. Final Fantasy VII helped to usher in the new age of gaming and establish the PlayStation platform as the dominant console of the 90s/early 2000s. I highly recommend that anyone who loved this game in the past explore it again...it is like a fine wine that gets better with age.
