GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Tuesday, Aug 18, 2009

(Yawns) What's up everyone? Once again, its been awhile since I've blogged on here due to the lack of anything going on. It's that time of year where no good games are released and there's simply nothing to do. This is my last full week of summer vacation before I start school on Wednesday next week. I'm honestly fine with starting again because I'm bored out of my mind and I want to see my friends again. Due to the economy's state, we're only getting two new students in my grade (11) this year. The cool thing is one of them went to my elementary school and the other is an exchange student from France so it'll be nice to see some new faces. In gaming news, I've managed to complete several of the impossible challenges in Rock Band 2, including the impossible guitar challenge, the impossible bass challenge, and both of the impossible marathon challenges. Surprisingly, none of them were that difficult. The only song that really challenges me is "Visions" by Abnormality which is a horrible song.

Another thing I'm enjoying right now is the new Xbox update. The avatar marketplace is a nice addition and I got to purchase a new Quicksilver hat (check out my gamerpic) with the 90 remaining Microsoft points that I had left. The idea of games on demand is also cool but Microsoft seemed to forget about the people with 20 GB hard drives that simply won't fit those massive games. And to top it off, I love how you can invite people to parties with one button press as well as the ability to eject discs from the Xbox. It's been nice talking to you! Now I'm going to re-install Firefox because it's been acting incredibly glichly the last few days. So long!

My first half of the summer was just bronchytus sinusitus. But we must all get used to going to school. But look at the bright side, there's going to be thousands upon thousands of non-fiction books that will make us smarter. You like that, right?

Microsoft didnt forget about the people with 20GB Hard drives. The wanted people to have a reason to go out and buy 120GB hard drives. So they make money.

Posted Aug 19, 2009 4:06 pm PT

Congradulations on your challenges you got! Those sound tough but I am very happy you were able to get them!

I hope school goes well for you! Enjoy your old friend as well as the Exchange student too! We had one when I went to school from Germany and he was very cool!

I bought a cool BioShock tee on the avatar marketplace.

Yeah summer's been pretty slow, nothing to play, nothing to do, nothing eat, nothing to poo. Just plain boring, but hey, anything beats homework, tests, and projects any day. Just enjoy it while you can.
Posted Aug 20, 2009 12:13 am PT
Yeah, after so long vacation gets boring and you want to go back to school, I felt that way before.
Posted Aug 20, 2009 2:51 am PT
