  Little Bit a' This, Little Bit a' That...

  Updates! Updates! Updates! So many updates so little time. Guess i'll start with the basics:

  Games; Spyro:
  Well, if you're my friend and are reading this right now, then you probably already know that a new spyro game has been announced; "Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure." It uses toys to spawn characters in the game and saves progress on them like a memory card. I am thrilled to see that they are going to make this for the PC (at least right now they are.) Anyway, i am personally curious to see how this game turns out because it already has some major flaws. The most important and obvious one being the character models, more specificly, Spyro's character model. It's far from appealing if you ask me, but there is still time for change, so hopefully someone will catch this before the train hits the tracks. Another flaw is the overall look of the game. The closest thing I can describe it as is a variation of the game SPORE. It is definitely not a graphics intense game because it simply looks like it was pulled straight off of the PS1. So there are my innitial thoughts about the game, so we'll see how it goes.

  Games; Crysis:
  Finally, after years of anticipation, i can play this game! If you don't already know, Crysis was and still is one of the most graphics intense games ever made. It's photorealistic landscapes and highly detailed models of trees, humans, aliens, guns etc, allowed for almost no computer toplay it when it came out. Now years after it came out, i have the privlage of seeing just how awesome this game is...I was not dissapointed. My laptop can still only play it on medium settings with a 1024x768 res. which could be better, but i'm not complaining considdering it is working on my laptop.
  The game unique to the FPS in the fact that it plays like call of duty, but you have a nano suit which allows you to take some damage before dieing. Long story short, if you can play this game, DO IT. It's frekin' sweet!

  Life; GS and Home:
  Gamespot or what is now called Glitchspot is still giving me problems when posting, commenting, etc. It's hard to continue to post on a web site that doesn't work half the time.
  In other GS news; I am comming up on my 5th year here at gamespot. I've met some good people, others...well not so much, but all in all, i've had some good times and I just wanna thank all of my friends who have stuck it out with me. (You know who you are)
  In home news, we are finishing my new home in the city. We completely gutted the entire place and even took out some walls and replaced them with new ones. Still have the flooring to do, but should be done soon. After the semester is over however, I plan to move to Florida and continue my college carrear in the Tampa or Keys area.

  Well thats all the time i have for now, so if you are still reading this wall of text I commend you! Drop me a comment if you like, or just hit your "back" button.

  Ugh.. Old Man Winter

  Ugh, old man winter is an a- hole. I really hate driving in this stuff. Seriously, it's bad enough that my school is the only one that is open in the entire county when the storms hit, but to top it off, it is exam week. Report after report, project after project, and exam after exam. Just gotta push through it i guess.

  

  Anyway, some not so boring news;

  I beat Assassins Creed BH, COD B ops, and Gran Turismo 5. Still workin on Motorstorm Pacific Rift though. Ummm.... thats about it...oh and its my 19birthday.

  Going 3 Dimensional

  If ya'll haven't figured it out by now, I'm going 3 Dimensional.

  Dispite the huge debate if it is a wase of money to get a 3D TV, I went out and got one anyway for about the same price as a non-3D TV with ashi-z load of extras!

  Alright heres what the PACKAGE DEAL WAS:

  Samsung50in. 3D TV
  2 pair of 3D glasses
  $50 worth of movies
  Call of Duty: Black-Ops

  

  the price? about $960 for everything! (Take that 3D haters)
