Bought a PS2
Bought a used PS2 off of eBay yesterday for $70, which was a pretty good deal. I'm surprised how much the used PS2s are! Still, it saved me a bunch since Gamestop is selling them for $129 + tax......
Finally completed San Andreas on Sunday after six months of playing it. Excellent game... I'll give it a 9.5 in my review. It was my second favorite game of 2005, behind Psychonauts. On a bad...
I'm actually thinking about doing the unthinkable... instead of going with the new 360, I'm considering buying a PS2 instead. Never had one, I was into PC gaming during the N64 and PS era's, so I...
So, I'm almost done with San Andreas... got a little stuck in Stranger's Wrath, and wanted to play something different, so I revived Fatal Frame over my four day weekend and had a blast. I stopped...
Even though I had to work a couple of days during the holiday weekend, and the Giants lost a gut-puncher yesterday, I still had a nice weekend. Hot here in Hawaii so I spent Thanksgiving on the...
Well, I was all psyched that Half-Life 2 was finally coming out and I was going to run out and get it right away, but now I think I'm going to wait. There are clearly some framerate issues and...
I love San Andreas, but lately I've been so mad at it I've had the urge to slam the controller into a wall. The hand contortions I have to pull off to do a drive-by is just unhealthy. This weekend...
Well, I completed Far Cry Instincts yesterday. Good game! I liked the ending with the Volcano level, that was pretty cool. Some parts were frustrating, especially the way the vehicles handled (that...
Made some headway into Far Cry Instincts this weekend. I can see what some guys have been saying about the AI, sometimes it's good and other times it's bad. I had one part where I was firing...
Had a day off from work today, so I got to finish Psychonauts this morning. Very good game, I really enjoyed it, although it could be so frustrating at times. Great to see a game with so much...
I haven't done much to keep up with my journal, but now that GS is pasting it on the front page of our profiles it seems I should keep it up to date. It's been a good year so far. This summer I...
Finished Halo 2... what the hell is all the griping about? I thought it was a great game - thanks to Bungie for all their hard work! I even didn't mind the end, I though it was kind of cool...
Thanks to my Gamespot friends for their e-mails lately - unfortunately for me I'm up on a farm in the middle of nowhere on the Big Island with a 28k modem... yikes! Means I have to walk away and...
Well my job bit the dust, and it was a good thing too since I hated it. In between looking for a new one I've gotten to play a bit. Not much progress in Halo 2 through the single-player because I...
I only got to play yesterday so I didn't get very far in my games. I did play through the Regret level in Halo 2, which was very cool. I'm enjoying the single player campiagn in Halo 2 a lot,...
Well I finally got some time to play, not much, but enough to progress a little further. I'm up to 40% complete on Burnout 3 and 68% complete on Def Jam: FFNY. I'm up to the championship free for...
Problem with living in Hawaii is people coming to visit and taking up all your game time. Halo 2 has gone untouched all week... but with the holiday starting tonight I'll be playing... Only news...
Halo 2 finally arrived this week and I started it last night getting up to "The Outskirts" on normal setting. Most of what I saw I liked although I am a bit disappointed in the cut scenes at times...
Bought a new Sharp 20" LCD HDTV / Monitor this past weekend... very sweet. Beat Ice T in Def Jam and went on to clean house for awhile beating Fat Joe, Dan G, Bless, Crazy Legs a few others......
Getting excited over Halo 2's release next week. I've got it pre-ordered and I finished Fable to make room for it in the loop. I'm up to Ice T in Def Jam, he's whipped my ass a couple of times...
