My two recent purchases came in the mail (Nier a few days ago and Vanquish today) so here's a brief rundown of what I've played so far:
Nier: I'm really enjoying it. Usually JRPGs I find have good combat (or at least scratch that turn based itch we get every now and then) and crap stories but it...
Ordered some games off Amazon in the past few days with some money I got from work.
Mass Effect 3 pre-order: The game I want for the new year. I've got a raging boner knowing it'll arrive on March 6th in my mailbox. Just getting home from school, opening that mailbox, and getting this game...
So I got three games for Christmas. My impressions:
Saint's Row The Third: I beat it in about two days. It's kinda a love it and hate it thing. Saint's Row 2 felt longer honestly. While this one definitely had better missions, better combat, and better weapons, it feels kinda short. I finished...

Video related.
As many of you may or may not know, I'm not terribly into the homebrew scene. It's not that I don't appreciate it or anything, I just don't find it all that entertaining. Outside of emulators and a few apps, I've never really been largely into it, especially in terms...
I finally got around to "obtaining" Skyward Sword. So some impressions.
First off, how is this so easy to pirate? I put it on my hard drive, fiddled some settings as per directions, and bam, working fine. Didn't even have to bother with the Wii Motion Plus video crap since I dealt with that...
So second day of wisdom teeth out. Boy, was it shit.
The instructions said to take the gauze out after day one so I did. That night I woke up probably 4-5 times to spit out mouth fulls of blood. All coagulated and shit. It was gross.
So they day goes on. My mom has to go to work but my...
Had my wisdom teeth removed today. Kinda an odd experience
I was really hesitant about going under. Last thing I remember was the doctor talking to me about how school was going. Then I wake up and almost fully functional just lacking a center of gravity. I was conscious enough to post on...
It's done!
So my computer basically fucked up after the power outage. For some reason it'd blue screen no matter what. Luckily I'm not very sentimental and I realized I could just save the computer and fuck all my pirated legally obtain games, music, and software. So I installed Windows 7 for...
So I'm back after losing power due to a snowstorm. Yes, a snowstorm in October.
It was really shit. Really cold, nothing to do, couldn't even shower. I got power back at around 3:30am this morning. I would've normally checked back here before school but somehow my normal computer needs a...
So I go through a whole fucking hurricane with nothing but a few small puddles in my basement and some one second power flickers. Of course, the next day, when it's a sunny, breezy day, the power goes out at 12pm.
It just came back. 29 hours without electricity.
Yeah, fuck you too Mother...
Yeah, so I live in New Jersey and there's hella amounts of rain. My backyard was flooded and the bridge across the damage ditch uprooted (a very small bridge, mind you). Oh, and there's a small bit of water in the basement from a brief time when the drain was off.
But the power has never gone...
OnLive has been an interesting system to me. I've always been jealous of my friends and their nice, high-end gaming PCs but with an utter lack of funds, I haven't been able to match up to them. I've been using the same relatively crummy PC for years, which honestly was speced years ago to play...
I've been with my friend for the entire week and probably won't be on for the rest of it. Thought I'd post this in case anyone is contacting me and wondering where the fuck I've gone.
See ya Saturday.
Usually Gamestop has shit sales but I was pretty shocked when I was checking out a typical rundown of gaming deals.
Bond games were like $10 on Gamestop!
So I decided to give my credit where it's due and buy Goldeneye 007 for the Wii for a whole $10.
I also picked up Blood Stone for the Xbox 360...
First things first, I got my M12 box.
Overall it was pretty decent, I at least got a new Chandra out of the set (no new Jace, though). Also got another Sorin (I had a Zendikar version), Inferno and Frost Titan, and Primordial Hydra to top off my mythics.
Rares side it was a mixed bag. I was...
Got back from the M12 pre-release yesterday evening. I went to the store (which is about an hour drive) with my friend on Friday and stayed over his grandpa's house for Saturday. Here's what happened.
We got there Friday and entered the store. After browsing a bit, we were hyped and we decided...
So there's a Magic 2012 pre-release happening this weekend and I'm actually going. I haven't ever gone to a pre-release or draft (I can't find many local stores that do them) but my friend said that he wants to go and conveniently his grandpa lives right next to a shop that hosts them. So I'm...
So, with my friends being at the beach and me having nothing better to do, I'm catching up on some Xbox 360 gaming.
First thing was that I beat the rest of RDR: Undead Nightmare.
Overall it's a great and lengthy expansion.
My only complaint is that the combat system is terrible for close...
As I said in my previous blog, almost all my best friends are away at the beach together and I wasn't really invited.
I'm not a beach person and I assumed that's why they didn't invite me but I was mildly irritated to see them all play Soul Caliber IV when I logged into my Xbox.
Oh well.
But at...
So it looks like almost all my friends are at the beach.
Well, my three closest friends at least.
Unfortunately, one of them has my Xbox and I'm not gonna run into their house to get it.
Basically I've got a week of probably doing nothing, although I do have a bunch of other friends to possibly...
