FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU

haven't posted anything in my blog in the longest time LOL. well, since my last entry (a long friggin time ago i might add =\ ) i have gotten a wii and upgraded my PC to the following specs:

ASUS P5Q

Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0GHz

4GB DDR2 RAM

500GB WD Caviar Sata HDD

EVGA Geforce 9600 GSO 512MB GDDR3

all things being said, it's considered a budget build, but still a hell of an improvement over what i used to have. i'll spare everyone from reading about what my other rig used to be. but even with this budget build i've been able to play a considerable amount of games at high quality and full resolution..

suffice it to say i've been gaming more on my PC than my wii, although The Conduit is quite the fun experience considering it's a Wii game - definitely better than the numerous shovelware being released on the system. plus i have most of the Guitar Hero games which is nice for parties.

finally noticed that my profile IS actually being viewed.  well, the launches for the wii and ps3 have officially passed and i've yet to get either one.  kind of sucks that i'm out of a job and that i can't purchase one.  i'm still questioning the wii's broadband capabilities seeing how there isn't a game out right now that's capable of doing multiplayer.  with free online play with the ps3 i'm more inclined to grab one of those when it's in stock (and of course when i get the money for it lol).

i'm not really doing much now as far as gaming is concerned except for the occasional PSP usage.  got a chance to play on my xbox over the undeniably short thanksgiving holiday (which i didn't get a chance to celebrate with my family because i caught a cold at the beginning of the holiday........great timing).

but yeah........having been busy with school it's kind of hard to blog on GS frequently.  with finals coming along it's getting to be a real pain.  once school's over i'm thinking about setting up my GC again and finally get a chance to finish RE4.  god.........that game is a beast.

i swear the quarter system is such a pain in the ass.  thankfully it'll be over this week.  i can't wait.  i've put off gaming for quite a while to definitely make sure to get the good grades, and chances are i will.  the problem was that it was especially tough this time around, what with all the cool gaming-related stuff going on.  with the rare amount of free-time i did manage to get, along with occasionally checking the GS website i was also playing FF4 on my GBA (well my GBM to be precise).  i got the game because of the good rating it got, and i couldn't believe how fun it was, albeit difficult compared to the weird-but-effective RPG system in Riviera: The Promised Land (which i'm replaying). 

as mentioned in my first blog post, i did get a ps2 slimline along with a bunch of games and i can't wait to dig into them.  one i'm most interested in digging into is God of War.  i do recall reading a news article saying how Sony is actually still making money from the copies this game is still selling.......a real testament to how good the game is i guess.  it makes me more excited with the sequel.
