This is for TTDog. They didn't have a category for the blog of 'stupid', but I made due.

Now that I'm lvl 30, I think I'll finally take that trip to Disney Land I have always wanted to take. Maybe go out to the bar afterwords to celebrate, or buy another game (like I need to level to do that).

I would just like to thank all the programming that went into making the amazing thing I call the GS leveling system. It has changed my life.

Have a great weekend.

The temptation of getting more games has been strong this last week. My son has been wanting to play more games with me, and tbh, I like some variety when it comes to playing games with him. New Super Mario Bros Wii is one of those tempting games right now.

I played the game at a GS kiosk the other day, and I just couldn't get myself to buy it for $50. I think we will have a lot of fun with it, but there is something about it that makes me feel like I'm spending $50 on a DS game... that plays on the Wii.

I decided I'm holding out (the best I can) for Black Friday. Last year there were some amazing deals on games, and I'm hoping that someone can beat the "save $20 when you buy two" offer at Toys R Us right now.

Is anyone else looking forward to picking up any games the day after Thanksgiving?

In gaming news, I've been playing a lot of Puzzle Quest, Tales of Symphonia (GC), and Lego RB (kids choice). Puzzle Quest is nice, but I found my biggest annoyance with the game... it suffers from "Oblivion Leveling" - every enemy levels right along with you. What is the point of leveling if leveling doesn't matter?

The Tales game, I'll try to keep it spoiler free, has just led me to the 'other world'. I still haven't hit disc 2. It's ok and all, not good enough for me to bother with any of the sequels as of right now though...

As for LRB... it's RB. What else can I say? I still wish LRB would import all my songs that I have on DLC, or that the features in LRB would transfer over to RB2... oh well.

I actually read a book this week too. "Invasive Procedures" - the first half is good, makes you think, the last half - crap. It was like reading a movie that starts out strong and by the end forgets it is trying to be intelligent and just turns into a Jackie Chan movie... the problem with books is you have to endure it for hours... movie, 90 minutes - done. Book, 4 hours - good, 1 hour (this is getting bad... lets just get it done with) + 3 more hours... NO MAKE IT STOP!

Anyhow, I'm glad to get back to games again.

So here is my "need to start", "need to finish", "want to do better", "want to replay just because it was awesome" lists. I have rated my desire level from 1-10 (10 being I'm going to pick this up tonight!)

Games I need to start:

Eternal Darkness (GC) - Desire level 5
I don't know why I haven't started this. The union crashed just as we were getting to play this. Or maybe I was busy that week... anyhow. I hear it is good. Maybe time to put it in. I think I would rather play dead space though.

Wind Waker - Desire level 1
Yeah, I started to play this... didn't get very far. I think I just got the boat. So I guess I should start this again. The problem, the graphics and characters I encountered the first go around just didn't appeal to me in the slightest.

Games I need to Finish:

Puzzle Quest - DL 9
Dead Space - DL 8
Tales of Symphonia - DL 8
Devil May Cry 4 - DL 7
Trauma Center: New Blood - DL 6
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn - DL 5
de Blob - DL 5
Rhythm Heaven - DL 4
Forza 2 - DL 4
Assassin's Creed - DL 3
X-Men Legends - DL 2
Mercury Meltdown Revolution - DL 2
Project Gotham Racing 4 - DL 1. If I'm going to race, I might as well pick up a good game instead though.
RE4 - DL -10

Games I want to do better

Bioshock
Shadow Complex
Eternal Sonata
Ace Combat 6
Star Wars: TFU
Beatles RB
Punch-Out!!
Mirror's Edge

All of these are to pick up additional achievements (or find nooks and crannies in) other than Punch-Out!! There is the power of the achievement system...

Games I want to replay

Metroid Prime
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Shattered Union

This is the reason I hang on to my games. Sure I could go get all sorts of games right now. But in the games I still need to finish, and games I still want to play, I have RPG's, FPS, Adventure, Puzzle games, Action, Racing, Horror, TBS... Sure I'm tempted to go buy something new, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to get started on Dead Space again, along with the Tales game. Puzzle Quest will be my 'before I go to bed' game... DS games usually replace what most people use books for in my life.

Does anyone else make insane lists like this? I have seen a blog or two out there...
