I pretty much forgot about about this....

Yeah so I'm almost done with my first year of college at Bryan now and I haven't touched this blog for a while. Admittedly I actually forgot how to get to it. I will try to post on here and mabey share this site on my facebook or something. Anyway.....

I'm still pretty much the same person, but slightly better at guitar and stuff. I kinda want to organize this thing a little better so Im gonna do like weekly music, games, and even movie picks. Im not real sure about anything else yet, Im just gonna go with whatever. Im still a Jesus freak, so Im sure I will throw some of my thoughts on Christianity and cool things I relate to that like I used too. So on to the GAMES!!!!

I have to admit that I haven't really been able to buy any new games lately and I have mostly been playing PS1 and SNES games as of late.

I do have Mass Effect 2(picked it up the first day it hit shelves), but with school and almost finals I haven't had a whole mess of time to play with it especially considering its SUPER LONG and has ALOT OF DEPTH. I beat the first one a while back and carried my character over to the second one which is an awesome feature. You still have to start at level one with new stats, BUT the benefit of carrying your character over is that the story is heavily affected by decisions that were made in the first game...which I have to say is fricking awesome. And Mass Effect 3 is coming soon and will carry on your character from the first and second game. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, thats okay and you may as well skip the next few paragraphs because I'm gonna talk about a couple more game related things.

Next, I'm on a journey to acquire Xenogears for a decent price. This is a PS1 game and the lowest I have seen it go for on ebay is about 40 bucks. Most people want to sell if for 70-200 bucks. Pretty crazy right? I'm not a huge collector so I just want to play this game based on all the recommendation I have gotten over the years. Im a poor college kid, so if you have this game, please hook me up.

A few games I really want to play ASAP....Final Fantasy 13, yes I like FF, get off me. My friend demanded I get Splinter Cell: Conviction, so I will probably work on getting that too...plus I love those old xbox/ps2 splinter cells and still own a couple of them. And Borderlands!!! A few guys from school play the heck out of this game and I STILL have not be able to buy it. I actually was gonna buy it at Gamestop around Xmas, but when I got up to the register the guy said they didn't actually have the game and he didn't know where the heck the case came from. It sucked and I ended up getting another game that I had little desire to play, but I had to get three because of the buy 2, get 1 free promotion. MUSIC is next.

Music....I must say that VH1 classic has been on my TV for the last few weekends I've been home. I have always loved classic metal/rock, but I find myself listening to it more than ever lately..probably because new music is sucking it up lately.

My reccomendation this week is:
Demon Hunter- The World is a Thorn...Now Demon Hunter is a band that I loved, liked, then absolutely could'nt stand. I loved their first two cds(s/t and Summer of Darkness), liked their third(the Triptych) and hated their fourth(Storm the Gates of Hell)...but their new one, The World is a Thorn is definately a return to form for them. So check it out if you like Heavy Christian Music.

Movies, I never really have watched new movies, but I watched two this week that I liked...
2012: Okay the idea of this movie is pretty extreme and stupid, but the characters and "lesson" is actually pretty good. If you don't know its about the end of the world....the government has kept it a secret for sometime and built giant Arks to save themselves....The main character and his family go on a journey to sneak on one of the Arks while the world is being destroyed. Really good special effects and good story if you don't take all of the end of the world stuff too seriously. SPOILER::::::::why the heck is Africa the ONLY place to survive????:::::::::::SPOILER

The second movie is Bodyguards and Assassins. If you know me, you know I LOVE Hong Kong Action and Kung Fu films. This movie may not even be out in America anywhere, but I got it from a friend. It was subtitled, so if that turns you off...then you should really consider expanded your movie tastes. It follow the story of the Chinese revolution. It has an extremely touching story(I actually teared up towards the end), great looking picture and sound, and some really cool fight scenes towards the end. Donnie Yen(one of the greats)is in this movie in top fighting form and even has a pretty dramatic role. I won't spoil anything for you, but the story is AMAZING. If you aren't afraid of subtitles, then do what you have to to acquire this movie...steal it if you have to(no I'm kidding, but seriously).....

Well that is all that I have for today and probably this week.
