As the title says, broke as hell this month. Wanna know why??? **** good games coming out one week after another, or games that I want. Since when has September been a month that has been a good month to release games? Tell me so I'd understand.
First off you got school starting, universities and the what not getting back into the swing of things. Bad for the gamers that have to go to school when that one or two good games come out during the month. Hell, I remember when I was in school and gaming only came on the weekends and special holidays. Well, at least during the day when I jump on PSU, won't be a hassle jumping in universe 1 on the 360 version of the game.
Man, my girlfriend will not like me this month. Spending money on games, and little date money, butI warned her about this month. She already knows about Sept. 25th, and how I don't want to be bothered, but I told her to still call me to check up on me, to make sure I don't go overboard. Halo 3, I just hope I don't beat that bastard in the first freaking day. I'm sure I will, or have people on my friends list that will want to do four player co-op as soon as I jump online. I'm down for it, just don't message me when I first turn on my xbox until I put the game in. I'm also going with Bungie's advice of playing the game on Heroic if you had any previous Halo experience. I'm rusty, but got some Halo experience, and hopefully gamerscore related to beating the game on different difficulties stack.
This week, getting John Woo's Stranglehold. My friend told me I should hold off until I see any reviews, and the official Gamespot review isn't up yet, but I read the IGN review, and it was pretty positive and gave the game an 8.1. It's not too long of a game, clocking in at 6 to 8 hours, but I don't need any overly long games at the moment. Still working on Wild Arms 5, then going to get back to Persona 3, hopefully. I say hopefully cause next week, the game I'm getting is Heavenly Sword. Another game that isn't too long, but I'm sure will have good action, some good replay value, plus it's one of the few big name PS3 games I'm getting this year along with Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, and probably Assasin's Creed. I might get Assasin's Creed on the 360 though since there isn't that much of a difference between PS3 and 360 when it comes to certain games. If I can get gamerscore on a game, I'd rather get the 360 version.
Well, the latter half of the month starting Sept. 19th, that's the start of my two weeks of vacation. That's also the day when Eternal Sonata for the X360 is coming out, thethird game of the month I'm gettting. Well, ifStranglehold and Heavenly Sword didn't stop my forward progress in Wild Arms 5, I'm really sure this will. Played the Demo, loved the fighting system,though don't know much about the story, butI heardit won't light the RPG world on fire. If you haven't already figured out the fourth game I'm getting then I'm saying itknow, Halo 3. I won't live, eat, and breath Halo 3 like Idid Halo 2 the first week it came out, thank goodness, but let'ssay, my testorone levels for that week will be raised, with me having to lower them by beating the **** out of anyone I can in Multiplayer. Covananent be damned, they'll get it the worst in single player.
When I think of it, I shouldn't be broke as hell, but it will certainly seem that way this month. This is the first, and hopefully the only monthwhere I'll be getting one game each week. Thankfully, no two games come out on the same day like Wild Arms5 and Metroid Prime 3 did at the end of last month. Though, October will be just asbad with Folklore for the PS3, Ace Combat 6 for the 360, andGuitar Hero 3? Not sure if it's October or November, but let's just say by the end of the year, I'll haveenough games to play without longing for the next big thingtocome out. Thinking of getting Virtua Fighter 5, but not sureif it'll be worth it since I'm still playing DOA4. I'll end the post right here, and tell me if I'm crazy or not wanting four games this month, ornot wanting more of what's coming out this month. Stay safe everyone.
