The phrase, a series of unfortunate events, sums up all that had happened so far. Months ago I decided to lend my lap top to my sister who refuses to buy one of her own. Following that I decided to grab my other sister´s desk top and add some few upgrades (not much, just enough for it to run without me having to wait a week for it to boot).

On the following months the dammed power supply broke. Being the lazy procrastinating worthless humanoid that I am, I didnt buy a new one right away. My solution, open up the case and place a fan next to it... it was cheap, fast and efficient. Little that I knew...

People have written books about the phrase, little that he/she/I/we/etc knew. At least if Dustin Hoffman´s character from Stranger Than Fiction is to be trusted. Chances are that if any of this possible books exist, they have a solid reason to do so. Cause little that I knew that dogs have a thing for video cards... in that they tend to ¨mark¨ them as their own even when they obviously aren´t.

See... when you leave an open desktop on the floor the animal considers it as a part of the floor it self. And since animals have a tendency to urinate on every square inch they live... I dont even want to talk about it anymore.

Now, you may think... that covers the Dog and the Video Card (which will hopefully recover after it dries out properly... even though no one would want a peed on Video Card... that dam thing costs 60 dollars... so it better!). Wheres the anger management? well, I believe writing can be very therapeutic.

I spent the last 5 months playing a single game (its not that I did nothing but play the game, its that it was the only game I really played). I finally got tired of playing World of Warcraft and I am happy of boeth playing the game and with being done with it. I wont do a detailed exploration of my time on WoW. I wasnt adicted to the game but I did let it grab me and pull me in. Then one day, after a week of honor farming I just felt like I could stop right there. All the desire of going back to the game was gone so I cancelled the account. I think Ill go back to it on the expantion cause Shamans are supposed to get fixed.

As I went on with my WoWitis I didnt stop purchising several PS2 games that I wanted to beat befor christmass to be done with last gen consoles and finally move to this gen. The final product is a Massive ammount of unplayed games that I intend to beat in the months to come.

Right now Im working and Kingdom Hearts. I plan to move to MGS2 then probably God of War 2... but by the time I beat MGS2 maybe Ill be on the mood of something else, perhaps in to some more MGS.

The pile of games in big and the time is running out so chances are that I will play many of this games on easy mode. I usually prefer normal levels of difficulty but right I get more fun out of beating a game and then moving on than getting everything on a single one. Hopefully the games on my list get an optional easy mode at the start.

As I said before, I am finally out of Outland and hopefully this year will be the last on the PS2 gen. So far my GameCube gave me some of the finest gaming experiences Ive had and my PS2 has delivered as well. Hopefully the Wii (wich I plan on getting on december) will do even better and the PS3 that I may or may not get next year as well.

I am as shocked as everyone else out there. I cant believe whats going on and how quickly one of the most respected video game web sites is loosing all of its credibility.

My opinion of Jeff is as good as anyone else. I hated the Twilight review. I thought that he was a point loving 360 fan-boy. He seems like a really funny dude. But, above all, I agree with the vox populy over the fact that he was an honest, tought editor. When Jeff gave a 9, the damm thing was a 9.

What really bothers me is how dumb all this really is. Even if the top bosses at C-net felt like firing him, werent they samrt enough to do it in a propper manner? The only thing that keeps a web site such as gamespot running is integrity. The fact that gamespot users trust editors IS what makes this site a success. But some one missed that.

I just feel like I needed to say something about it. It is sad to see something as big as GS burn down so fast. Things will never be the same... onceagain.

See you Jeff... keep those points going.

Some people just don't have opinions. Like titusandro.
titusandro must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could titusandro possibly have for not rating a single film?
