Uh, I got Fire Pro Wrestling for PS2.

Way better than the latest Smackdown game but it doesn't have the presentation of said game. (2D gaming ya'll.)

F*CK! You found it!? I still can't find it anywhere. It's like no one decided to stock it.

Yeah it was at the Gamestop across the street from me. I had no idea it was hard to get.

I just got into Create mode, Making Mikey Whipwreck was a strange journey to say the least.

I just bagged a replacement copy of NFL Blitz for N64 and NBA Showtime for Dreamcast. They were broken and scratched.

And since I'm about 99.9% sure I'm getting a PS3 for Christmas, I'm taking that off my shopping list.

Got Mass Effect, popped it into the 360, everything is fine for the first 15 minutes. Red Ring of doom.

Jesus.

I downloaded Sin & Punishment to see what all the fuss was about. The graphics suck, the music sucks, the sound sucks, the voice acting sucks, the story sucks, the art direction sucks...But...The gameplay is actually really cool.

Correct. Give the man a cookie.

I have it on good authority that a PSP is being bought for me for Christmas so I bought GTA Vice City Stories and MGS Portable Ops for it yesterday.

Ugh. Enjoy those pieces of sh*t. I've never played two worse controlling games in my life, and I've played Lair.

Oh no, it wasn't Lair that controlled like ****. It was you...

Did they seriously test that game with actual people? You see how Bungie put all this effort into making Halo 3 enjoyable and realising their own design faults; while with Lair whoever the company is that made it tries to tell you that you're the one playing it wrong...

ROFL! I forgot! I just didn't know what the f*ck I was doing! Factor 5 didn't make a complete piece of sh*t game, Julian Eggebrecht CAN pull off the moves 8/10 times after-all!

That's six-axis control for you, though. Thank God developers haven't learned Factor 5's lesson, and forced six-axis control is pretty much dead.

Ahh, I remember that interview. He even said that casual gamers had less problems with the controls than hardcore gamers. Hilarious!

I've been hoping to get Guitar Hero III for Christmas, but apparently my mom isn't too happy with it after seeing me have a go at it at the shopping center today. I don't see what's wrong. Devils playing guitars, fire shooting into the sky, rocking on to kick ass rock songs...what's not to like?

Anyways, I've got Children of Mana under the Christmas tree instead. Hopefully I'll be able to get a bit of money together for Guitar Hero, but...eh...looks like it's pretty far away right now.
