  A Quarter Milestone For Me.......

  

  Yes siree. Today marks my 25th birthday. Nothing can stop me from celebrating my special day.

  I also like to thank God for sparing me and letting me live to see this day. Sadly not many people here don't live long enough to reach this number. Either they die a few months before and then they are some that sadly don't make it to their 20s or double digits. So this is really big in my mind.

  Also, I am not the only one celebrating. My 2nd brother also celebrates his 1st birthday today. Which is a bit ironic, huh? One father, two sons, two different mothers and they're born on the same day only years apart from the other. And I was glad to see him along with some siblings who have grown rapidly over the last few months since I've seen them.

  Yeah this blog will be short. So happy birthday to me and goodnight.

  Out With The Old and In With The New......

  OKAY. Like my YouTube account, I let my blogs slide for too long. Time to update God damn it.

  Yeah, I left my YouTube account up for 4 months without uploading anything. Now I did. Let's end there.

  Second, over the past few weeks I traded in 2 of my games. No idea what I may get in their place but I already have 2 new ones thus far to keep me busy for a while. First off, Sonic Unleashed for the Wii is no more. Yeah, at first I enjoyed it for the first few months I had it until ti started to linger in the back of my collection so I got rid of it. Plus the amount of time placed into the werehog stages killed it for me. Sonic is usually more about his speed and stuff giving him an edge over Mario which would work in this generation if Sega would stop adding gimmick after gimmick after gimmick. And no I don't plan on trying the PS3 version either.

  Next game to go was TNA Impact. Sorry, that game wasn't doing anything for me. Plus I had far better PS3 games to go back to on a more regular basis. If they added more content to it, then yeah I would've probably kept it. But sadly they didn't and they was almost nothing left to do. The controls were okay and I liked how you could counter in mid-move and what not. But more things should've been added to the game to be completely honest. No offense to anyone who liked it, cause I didn't.

  In any event, these are the games I got in their places:

  PUNCH-OUT (WII): Yep the remake of the original NES classic. And I also have the NES version via Virtual Console too. Both of them are loads of fun yet the Wii version obviously has more stuff to do. And no, Mike Tyson is not in the game. Like the NES version, the remake is really hard especially with the extra features added to it. One thing for sure, if you don't like really hard games then this isn't the game for you. People who have played the original Punch-Out for NES would have no problems going through Contender Mode.....until you unlock Title Defense mode. You fight all 12 boxers again, only this time they are a lot stronger, quicker and tougher to take down on your first try. P.S: you are at least guaranteed to lose to Glass Joe in Title Defense for your first try (which I sadly did), but hey. To ease the difficulty, you get to fight holograms of the boxers in Title Defense before fighting them if you choose to just so you could learn how they fight (saved me a lot after losing 5 times to the first 2 boxers). Definitely a good game if you like challenges and cartoonish appeal and charm in video games.

  RATCHET AND CLANK: TOOLS OF DESTRUCTION (PS3): Ah the game that eluded me for so long yet the first Ratchet and Clank for the PS2 hasn't been beaten yet. Still have that damn montage to do right when September starts and I also can't go far with this. Not when I can barely see anything that is thrown in my face. In any event, if you liked any of the PS2 games you'd like this one. That and the fact that this particular game, much like the critic review at the back of the cover, feels like a Pixar movie more than anything else. And that is great IMO cause Pixar movies rock (Incredibles FTW). No need, I will finish that game even though I hate the SIXAS motion-sensors. After that's done I'm downloading Quest For Booty and buying A Crack In Time when it comes out. Man, why did I let the Ratchet and Clank series past me by when I bought my PS2? I haven't had this much fun with a 3D platformer since Super Mario 64 (Galaxy was great but not as good as 64).

  Well that's all the time I have. And with that, later.
