Well I've had my iPod fixed for a few weeks now.  Along with that there is the 160gig hard drive (more than enough for me, but still), Windows XP (SOOOO much better than 2k >_> and a new disc drive so I can play games on my PC again.
I also got Tales of Eternia recently.  I've played it for like 1/2 hour so far so I can't comment on it too much, but it's a great game.  I wouldn't go as far as to say better than Symphonia, but looks to be a great game, lol.

So the one person who reads this, there you go.

It's time for me now to set down Advance Wars and start playing a few other games. I bought Field Commander and Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth. All I can say is wow. Those are both awsome games. I don't know how VP managed to get a 7.5, I feel it deserves a score much much higher than that. The game has taken over my life for the past few days.
Field Commander is also pretty cool. If you have played games like Advance Wars you will be able to jump right into it, almost everything is the same except in this game everything is more realistic. It's not the same feel as AW, but it is still a fun game. Not nearly as awsome as VP though.
Not long ago I also bought Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones. I''m suprised that I'm not enjoying it as much as I would like to. It is still a very fun game.
Now to the sad part of this entry. A few days ago my iPod messed up. Now contrary to what the blog title says, it isn't ruined. The songs are on there, my iPod just won't start up. Luckily for me I can put my iPod in "disc mode" and take all of my songs off and put them on my computer. Then, and only then, will I be able to reinstall some stuff and get my iPod working again. Unforutnately I have to wait a few more days because my dad just ordered a new hard drive for this computer, and on average there are only 2 gigs of free space on this computer. Compare that to my 17 on my iPod....

Moral of the story- don't use any third party programs with your iPod unless you are sure your iPod will work with it.

This is my first blog entry... anywhere on the internet. I've never been intersted in this type of thing, but I decided to update everything on Gamespot today. Thus, me doing this.
I don't have many hobbies. I spend most of my time on the computer during the summer, and the rest of my time goes to the tv or video games. During the school year I am in sports and I do more stuff with them then. I'm pretty lazy, but I am lifting weights some to get ready for football.
I own 4 current systems. Ps2, GameCube, DS, and PSP. My DS is my favorite right now, I have been playing Advance Wars DS and Advance Wars 2 a lot on it. Before I was playing Castlevania. I have a few of the popular DS games, but I don't find myself playing them much. Mario Kart is really only fun with friends, and the online pretty much sucks. Animal Crossing is too boring for me, and Metroid Prime: Hunters is pretty bad too. I won't go into any detail about my hate for that game and Nintendo's online.
I use my PSP about as much as my DS, but I mostly use it for web-browsing while I'm up in my room or late at night. There are some good games out there for the PSP, but none that have truly caught my attention unlike the DS.
My ps2 has gotten a bit of use this summer. So far I have beaten Ratchet and Clank 1 and 2, I'm pretty far in Jak and Daxter, and I have a few hours in some other games. I'm hoping to beat a few more games before the summer's end.
My GameCube on the otherhand, doesn't get much use at all. I only have four games for it. I have beaten two of the, and two of them I just don't want to finish. Tales of Symphonia and Metroid Prime were great, but I just can't bring myself to play Metroid Prime 2, and I'm stuck in Resident Evil 4. I always run out of ammo facing this giant dude (either that or I'm just bad). Aside from those systems, I have a gba, gba sp, gbc, gb pocket, game gear, and this pc.
Being that I'm 14, I don't have a very good way of getting money, so for now I have 2 paper routes I do every morning. The money isn't terrible considering I just go out for 1/2 every morning. I make about $160-180 every month. I will get a better job when I get older.
I really like music. I have around 4,000-4,500 songs, I haven't checked recently. I'm interested in metal, preferably power and heavy, but I'll take anything good. Aside from metal I like some rock music, and some instrumental stuff. I hate mainstrem music with a passion. Everyone in my school likes bands like "Brand New" or any of those other crappy puck rock/alternative bands. Once in a blue moon there may be one I like, but generally I hate anything like that. The lead singers voice and the lyrics make me want to shoot myself.

Well that's all for now, thanks for reading if anyone does
