Waiting for Noby Noby Boy to finish downloading, since I just bought it, so figured I may as well do a blog. Why not.

So I've had the PS3 since August and I still play it daily. Since November I have gotten Street Fighter 2 HD Remix, Everday Shooter, and as previously mentioned Noby Noby Boy. Been playing SF2 a lot lately, I use Zangief. He's hard to use since he moves slow and has no projectiles such as a Hadoken or Sonic Boom or others, so I kinda have to work my way over slowly. I have to jump over them, or do this one special that if I time it right lets me barely pass by them, so it's a lot slower, kinda like a cat stalking his prey I guess. Once I finally get over to them though I hurt pretty badly by piledriving them. I'm ok at the game, online I usually win at least 1 round, ever once in a while I actually beat them though it's more of an exception than the rule. Going to get SFIV once I scrap up the money, probably in March-April. Loving Everday Shooter, really relaxing with the music and such. Otherwise I've just been renting games such as Resistance 2, The Darkness, Far Cry, Mirror's Edge, etc.

In addition I've also gotten Little Big Planet and Rock Band 2. LOVE Little Big Planet, the communities' levels are usually pretty fun, and I spend hours with my friends just custamizing the Sack Boys, coming up with new designs and costumes and such. Well worth the money. Rock Band 2 is fun also, got it for PS3 so I can download songs for it. Haven't got much, so far all I've downloaded is "Toxicty" and "BYOB" by System of a Down, "Are You Dead Yet?" by Children of Bodom, the Distrubed pack, and "Skullcrusher Mountain" by Johnathan Coulton (he wrote "Still Alive"). Lots of fun, I can now drum on Hard on the majority of the songs. Poorly but still can

Also got an I-Pod, loaded it up with music and whatnot, and subscribed to the Hotspot here at Gamespot. I'm happy since I got mentioned on The Hotspot for the homework assignment towards the end. It's a good podcast but it kinda tweeks me how little they remember a lot of the older games. I hear people on there who forget a lot of the good games, when they talk about certain topics they don't metion them, or if they do half the people on there don't know them. I realize they have other things to do besides keeping up with every single game coming out or has came out in the past 10 years, but I'm 16 and know every one mention except maybe 1-2 and can think of others. Oh well. not a huge issue.

I also picked up Lord of the Rings Online earlier this month. Really fun game, loved the more story focus. Not as much as say Fallout or something, but moreso than many other MMO's. Also has a great community, the people will help you with quests or questions you have instead of simply flaming you (WoW...), and the chats can get to be funny (just the General channel). I haven't had to deal with trolls (execpt for 1, maybe 2) spamming, really enjoying it. I just canceled my account however, due to too many other things to do, and lack of funds, though I do start work again next month . Once things die down I'll more than likely start back up however

I've also gotten several other games I can't remember, I spluged on Black Friday (November 26th I think?), spent $100 and got about 10-11 games mostly used, some new, so I won't bother listing them. Some notables include Max Payne 2 ($5), Chrono Trigger ($40) and Guild Wars ($5). Then a few days ago I started playing Manhunt, hoping to finish this weekend .

And finally I hit Level 37 Heiankyo Alien. No idea what that is from but sounds kinda cool . So that's about all, longer than I expected. How's things going with you guys? Any cool new games, maybe a new system, or a special someone entering your life ?

I didn't care much for Mirror's Edge, it was ok but repetitive. I just really liked the story, dialog, etc. in Fallout 3. And blowing up the starting city, Megaton, in a giant nuclear blast from a few hundred yards away and getting to watch it. So beautiful........ It's the 1st RPG I was ok being evil in, kill strangers, shooting bums, blowing up cities, etc. Just good ol' fun .
