The worst blog ever! ...or is it?

    Big Update

    Well. It's been over a year since I'd last written anything (and that last blog was kind of pointless anyway). So I figure I'd let you know what I've been up to. I purchased a DS at the end of July this year. Ever since the DS had first arrived back in 2004, I had wanted one. After I'd seen the first news about the DSi surface, I made it my goal to get one. I needed to save my money for college expenses during the time so I had to find a different way to make some cash. So, I put a Folgers Med-Dark French Roast (good stuff by the way) coffee can in my room. Yes, I started saving change, which is weird for me because I usually think anything less than a quarter is worthless because it can't be put into an arcade machine. So I scavenged my room and found all the hidden change and put it into the jar. Awesome! Now I only have another $167.78 to go. From there on out, I picked up any change I found to put towards my goal. Well, July came around and I couldn't wait any longer. So, I counted out the change I had. I knew I had a lot of it, but to my surprise, I had managed to collect $103.51 in change. On top of that, I had two gift cards to Best Buy totaling $45. This brought my DSi purchase to 21.48. Finally, I had the one system that I'd wanted more than any other in my hands after 5 years... only to forget to buy screen protectors and a case. The DSi would sit in it's box for another two weeks before I got screen protectors. But once I had everything I needed to protect my investment, I was ready to turn it on. Seeing the words Nintendo DSi appear on the top screen and hearing that trademark beep felt so liberating. I had finally achieved my goal.

    Since then I have become a DS enthuiast. It has become my favorite modern gaming device and I've spent all the past months collecting all sorts of titles for it. My current collection is as follows:

    Asphalt Urban GT 2

    Boing! Docomodake DS

    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

    Children of Mana

    Dementium: The Ward

    Elite Beat Agents

    Etrian Odyssey

    Geometry Wars: Galaxies

    Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars

    The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

    Lock's Quest

    Metal Slug 7

    Metroid Prime: Hunters

    Nanostray

    Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword

    Ninjatown

    Professor Layton and the Curious Village

    Resident Evil: Deadly Silence

    Rhythm Heaven

    Rubik's World

    Scribblenauts

    The World Ends With You

    There are plenty more on my want list but this is where it stands. I'll probably give updates on any new additions and perhaps on some of my impressions on any games that I really enjoy. If you'd like me to give you any of my impressions on the titles I have, just send me a message and I'll be happy to give you all the input I can. And please, If you have any stellar recommendations, I'd love to hear all about them.

    On a completely different note. I've been playing Borderlands. Who hasn't right? This game has completely drawn me in. There's the best of a bunch of different worlds here. Bioshock, Fallout, Diablo. I see a ton of influence in this game and it's all good. The graphic presentation is amazing. I mean, I'm a sucker for anything cel-shaded. I know they say it's not cel-shaded per say, but come on, it looks just like it. Anyway, I currently have a level 33 Hunter. I couldn't tell you how long I've been playing exactly, but it's been a good amount of time. In that regard, the story seems to be going strong and doesn't look like it's going to end anytime soon. So there's a good amount of gameplay here. That's about all the thoughts I have on the game currently. I'm too excited to give a decent impression. lol

    Take it easy guys. I look forward to giving some more DS updates in the future.
