  I don't know why it's been so long.

  Wow, look at where I am now. All grown up so to speak. I'm out of high school and going to college. I don't really know how much steam this blog really has left, or what direction I'll take it in if any. I'm still gaming and I actually plan to make a career out of it somehow. Probably character animation. The main reason I'm no longer posting is because of the serious loss of talent at this site. After the Jeff Gerstmann incident last year, most of the remaining influential employees at gamespot fell out and now all we've got left is Ricardo Torres. Not that he's not busting his ass, but it's just not the same without Navarro and Kasavin. The bottom line is this: the only joy I get out of gamespot anymore are the occasional scores and news updates. This siteis pretty bare bones compared to what it used to be. I'm not sure if it's really worth it anymore.Let me know if you guys are still interested in seeing a blog, or this could very well be my last update.

  Rock On

  Just got a bunch of 360 games from a friend!

  So they may not be the best, in fact one would go as far to say some of them suck or are B-rate, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Just because some of these games got bad reviews doesn't nessicarily mean I won't like them. Regardless, I was just given 5 B-rate games from a good friend of mine who owns xbox365.com. He gets this crap sent to him for free on a weekly basis and throws my way anything his kids can't play. So he gave me Ninety Nine Nights, Dark Sector, Stranglehold, Conflict: Denied Ops, and Just Cause.

  

  Needless to say Ill be playing Stranglehold and Just Cause first because they got the most attention at their launches. I heard they were both pretty good, and Ive played the demo for Just Cause, which is really frickin' fun. I'm not so sure about Dark Sector and N3, but I'll probably still give them a try. I love RPGs but N3 got some pretty mixed reviews, and Dark Sector is supposed to be repetitive and only good for its graphics. Anyway, you can't complain about something you get for free, so I'll probably have most of these done by the end of the Holiday break. I honestly dont think that will be too hard, either since they're all supposed to be fairly short. But the bottom line is that I'm heartily looking forward to Just Cause, and to a slightly lesser extent Stranglehold. The rest is somewhat "Meh".

  Major Zero Was Right.

  Remember in Snake Eater when Major Zero took his original Codename (Major Tom) from The Great Escape? Well, if you don't... In the great escape, American Soldiers tunnel out of a Nazi prison camp. Their 3 tunnels are code named are Dick, Harry, and Tom. He takes the name major tom because he thought it was the name of the tunnel they escape through, and would therefore bring him good luck, but after watching it again he realizes tom is the tunnel that is discovered before they escape, and instead changes his codename to Majo Zero. Anyway, he makes claims that it is a very interesting movie. Well, it's been on my list of movies to watch (Along with "From Russia With Love" and "The Shawshank Redemption").

  

  I watched it, and it is literally, with no exaggeration, the best movie I have ever seen. Its the only 3 hour movie I have ever seen that doesn't drag on in ANY respect. It may be very long, but unlike other critically acclaimed movies like "The Godfather" and "Scarface" it doesnt have boring parts that tempt me to skip over. Every moment is crucial to the story and thrilling. In addition, its all based on a book that was based on a true story. Obviously some elements were changed to make a better movie, most obvious of which is the fact that the main digger is claustrophobic. Although it may be smudged in areas because of a small portion of fiction, it is by all means a perfect film. If you havent seen it, I implore you too. It's much better than "Escape From Alkatraz", and even comparable in quality to the first Season of Prisonbreak. If you watch it and don't enjoy it on any level, I cover my naked butt with balogna on my next video blog.
