some day to day thoughts, musings if you will

Today's On The Spot totally got me excited about MGS4. They didn't actually show that much but still, I was interested before,so. Anyway, I called the Gamemania (my gamestore of choice). And I heard something disturbing and unlogical. As a matter of fact I don't really know how it is possible and I hope I just misunderstood. The thing is, I called to ask if they had MGS4 for the PS3 for rent. And they said they don't rent out games anymore... What?.. A gamestore.. doesn't rent out games?. It's lost like half of it's purpose. I don't easily go buy a game, but I surely do rent games. I don't understand. I'll call them back tomorrow and ask again. But this is just ridiculous, right?

(Spoiler.. perhaps ) In other news. Yesterday I came across something amazing (I hope you all didn't find this yet .. but I have my doubts) I was playing GTA4 yesterday and you know on Happiness Island, there's this kind of.. well sort of balcony I noticed near the foot of the statue of happiness, with a lot of doors by it. I was really focused into like getting there, 'cause I thought those doors might get me inside the statue. I didn't know whether or not that was possible, but I surely didn't give up hope. So... I got to the place where you can take those helicopter rides and stole one, and I tried to get up the balcony.. (note that.. I can't by any means steer the goddamn thing ) Well.. it took me like 10 tries to get up there, the suffering of heli crashes that statue must've endured... Anyway, at one point I got there and I got in the statue! The doors might've not like.. swung open or anything, I kinda just walked through them, but still.. And then when I was in there, there was this ladder. So I went up the ladder and what I saw you wouldn't believe (unless of course you found it out by yourself.. ) It was a real (gigantic) heart .. pulsating ! .. It was awesome , too bad the cops had just recently busted me so I didn't have any guns.. I really would've liked to shoot at it, lol

Like I said earlier, I have a guitar now, and I love playing. I seldom have days were I don't play, and those normally only are when I'm not at home so yeah, I'm hooked. I'm not That good yet, but I like the progress I've been making, it doesn't all have to go that fast. Just taking it easy . I did make some videos of me playing, if anyone's interested in seeing them they're on U-tube, http://nl.youtube.com/user/joeleke64 (that's my profile, where you can find my videos)


But I haven't just been playing (real) guitar, I've also been playing Guitar Hero!
Like a year ago I got a demo for Guitar Hero 2. So I didn't have a Guitar to play on, I was using the controller, which is just using the shoulder and X buttons. And I got fairly good that way, so by the time I got to buying the actual game I got to thinking, "should I spend all that extra money on that guitar?" And so I didn't. It was great for me, I kept playing with my controller and it worked out, I beat Expert and now just recently I bought Guitar Hero 3. This time with the guitar . But the truth is I still play it more with my controller, I'm just more used to it that way. I love the online play too, it can be really challenging to play against each other on Expert. I love it . But you know, this summer I'm gonna focus on the actual guitar part of the game, I'm gonna try to get good that way too.. though I have my doubts I barely finished Easy..
Ow well, leaves me with something to work on

Okay, that was it for today, See yah later

Hi Everybody,

How are yah? I'm okay (except for the fact the exams have just started.)It's been really long since I've been here. I'm hoping things could be like before, so I'm gonna try to spend more time here , catch up on what you've all been up to ! I've been up to quite a lot myself too, you know. But I seriously don't know where to begin.

Well.. I got a guitar (like, an actual guitar ) An Ibanez SA120 for those of you who are into guitars, just mentioning. I love it! I've never had a single hobby that's as good as this one. I got a PS3 as well, but I don't even nearly play it as much as my guitar. Oh well, I love games too ..

I got GTA 4 just a couple of weeks ago and completed it last week, it was so much fun, really one of the best games of this year, guaranteed. I'm actually already going for file 2, lol. I can't get enough of this game

Well, that's all for now , I'll see you guys soon

cheers

Did anyone see the new gameplay footage of the upcoming Turok (PS3/X360)? It looks awesome, apart from the fact that one clip showed the glitch of a dinosaur falling into another one.. or the fact you're knive doesn't even have blood on it after cutting a raptors throat. I really wanna play that game, it takes me back, it's almost like the good ol' days reinvented.. maybe just a little better even.. My first game on the N64 was Turok so you might see some kind of connection to which I am very excited buying this game. Although, I actually didn't like that game, but I know now that was just an age thing. My dad however had way more fun playing it than I did, but I can't say I didn't enjoy watching it being played. Same goes for Turok 2, I really sucked at the game, but I had more interest that's for sure. But again I didn't really like this game, both probably because of age and ability (I did suck at it..). Just another game I watched my dad complete (and he wasn't even that much of a gamer). Well.. I never got to play Turok 3, never heard anything about it actually. Read an article about it once.. didn't really look that cool.. But then it came, what I still believe to be the very highlight of the franchise .. : Turok Rage Wars .. I had a BLAST playing that game years on end .. eventually I lost my N64 because my evil grandparents took it (but that's another story..), I got my uncle's now, but no Rage Wars. Oh well.. anyway, Turok (PS3/X360) would just out of sentimental value (all the great memories I had playing those games with my dad) be a great purchase, and for all I've seen it's just a great game all in all. I'm really excited about, but it's probably far from out yet.. when exactly, I don't know, but I'm gonna buy this game. But first.. .. I'll need a PS3.. I'm getting there.. I'm getting there

Alright that was it.. .. Best regards to all of my friends out there, See Yah Later

Some people just don't have opinions. Like tyrant64.
tyrant64 must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could tyrant64 possibly have for not rating a single film?
