Okay, no I didn't get 5K in a day -- but I did finally hit 30K in glorious Xbox gamerscore yesterday. it was fun, it was sweet and now it is over. Time now to look ahead to 35K in a never ending quest for achievements and the points associated with most. I have a bunch of games to tide me over for awhile. Hopefully that means kicking down these next 5K pretty quickly.

Well, its been a pretty busy Summer for me. Both work and life have been crazy. My 360 took a powder -- and the replacement is acting up. Not sure if 2008 has been all that great a year. But School is starting and GameSpot has a new look, so maybe things are getting better. Too bad I still can't pull RSS feeds from GameSpot. Not sure what is up, but it is hampering my enjoyment.

See you on Xbox Live!. Well, assuming my console isn't acting up. I sure hope it is just the high heat in the area and not something more serious.

Sorry, I've been away for the last two weeks, vacation and other issues. I finally made it back home this week. Since I'm currently a married bachelor, the family is visiting family without me, I went and rented Ninja Gaiden II. Bad idea, I've barely slept! I've over half way through the game and I have to say -- WOW! It is so pretty and all the moves I was used to in Ninja Gaiden are back and still work! The game is much easier to get into then the first, but don't be fooled. The bosses are still a pain in the arse. However, other enemies should be of little consequence next to the original. Just Don't expect to just button mash this game. In all, it was just as good as the Demo and I'm enjoying it as much as I did the original. The only bad thing is, there are a ton of other 360 game to play. So, I need to finish this game so I can go play something else!
