  So I feel like writing a blog...

  ... crazy right?

  Obviously, I've not been keeping up with this site as much as I used to. There were a few games here and there that kept my attention for a good while over the past few months like Borderlands and Uncharted 2 (great games) but overall I've kinda been seperating from gaming.

  I played MW2 and didn't really care for it all that much, despite its acclaim. Granted there were some good moments, but I guess I just don't like CoD games, and the multiplayer of that series has never kept me coming back for more like other titles.

  Here and there I've been playing SMT: Devil Survivor which is pretty good. I should get around to playing it more, but I just haven't been in the mood. School will be starting up in a few weeks and I probably won't be playing games much at all unless Bioshock 2 takes over my mind and makes me buy and play it, which will probably happen.

  Back in Action.

  Mmm, I just had an omelette. It was tasty, but I digress. This current entry is on a much more positive note than the last since all of my systems are now in working order.

  Even so, I'm having gaming ADD. In the past 3 months I've started Mirror's Edge, Breakdown, Gears of War 2, Dead Rising, Chrono Trigger, Demon's Souls, inFamous and LocoRoco. There may be others, but those are the ones that immediately come to mind. I did play through Resident Evil 5 a couple more times and have been doing plenty of Mercenaries 2 co-op. Basically, I've been playing a lot of online multiplayer games. I am working on inFamous the most, but I haven't been putting time into it like I should.

  I'm looking forward to getting my copy of Katamari within the next week or so. It will be my first platinum trophy. D:

  Anyway, I'm sleepy, I should get some rest. I was going to make this longer, but I can see that's not happening right now.

  A String of Bad Luck

  Starting with the PS3 dying, many of my electronics are taking it as their cue to do the same. The weekend after my PS3 gave up the ghost, my Blackberry also suffered a great deal. A fall to the gravel created a huge crack in the screen. I can replace it for $50, just haven't gotten around to it yet. My computer was next in line as it took one for the team living to a ripe age of 3 years which is pretty average for a laptop. It has already been replaced since I can't go very long without a computer.

  I was thinking of a game to pass the time since I haven't been playing that many in the past month, and I had narrowed it down to Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions (PSP) and Chrono Trigger (DS), FFT was what I had decided to play so I attempted to power up my PSP only it wouldn't. I plugged in the charger thinking all was well, 30 seconds later it turns off with no response. Not even the charge light comes on. It may just be a defective charger, but I didn't want to waste $15 if that's not the case. No one seems to have used chargers for me to test my theory at the moment so I'm just going to wait it out.

  So of course I decided to play Chrono Trigger. Everything was fine and dandy until yesterday when I opened the system... and the hinge broke. I've had the DS for 4 years and haven't had any problems so this is just a minor thing since it still actually works for now. Maybe now I'll grab the DSi since I still have my GBA, but I haven't decided yet.

  I finally shipped off my PS3 on Monday and now I'm anxious for it to arrive safely home again. I had purchased Demon's Souls and it has been sitting here patiently waiting for me to play it for the past 2 weeks. I also imported Katamari Damacy Tribute (aka Katamari Forever in the US) so I definitely wanted my PS3 back before that arrives.

  I haven't bought any games in the past 3 weeks which is pretty impressive for me, but I've been kind of unmotivated with the recent string of events, plus being busy with my new job. I look forward to getting into the swing of things since life is starting to settle down around here. My next blog will hopefully be a lot less depressing.
