It took way too long, but I finally got a 360

I finally got a 360. Why did I wait? Honestly, not many good games. But with Dead Rising around the corner, I had to go get one right away, and luckily that moment happened to appear.

My friend had a deal: Premium Console, Oblivion: CE, CoD2, Fight Night, second gamepad, wireless adapter, two play-and-charge kits, one quick charge kit, and a faceplate. Price? $500. I swooped that bitch up, ran home, and instantly downloaded Dead Rising.

CoD2 is pretty boring. I found someone on GameTZ to trade with, for Need for Speed: Most Wanted. That demo was damn fun and I love a pretty racer. I found Oblivion to be pretty stale, so I plan on trading that aswell. The game is huge, with so much to do, but all that needed to ruin it for me was the DAMN A.I. The first time my own buddy jumped infront of me while I was attacking, causing him injury, then the slaying of me, was enough to get me to press the 'X' and then the Y button to return to the dashboard. Maybe they should have made the game world smaller, and made the artificial intelligence, oh I dunno......intelligent?!?! Fight Night is just a great game with a few buds...and the graphics are effin' mind-blowing. I borrowed GRAW from a friend and have been enjoying the heck out of it, especially online.

So, this wednesday I'll be picking up Dead Rising and devoting my life to it.

I'm waiting for the Leipzig Game Convention. Not that I'm going, but I want more C&C3 info. I want to believe that EA can do us some good. The recent shots and podcasts have been setting my hopes high. They're doing things I didn't expect them to do.

End of summer...so things are slow. Not much to really rant about, but oh, it's coming.

P.S. Tell me what you think about this smaller font. I like it better. But you might not.
