Fourth Quarter - Let’s do this!
So…here we are? It’s October, may not be the first, but it is essentially early October. This is when the war drums start blaring, right? I guess so. Since we’re all gamers, or at least most of you are, we know that October, November and December are THE months to game. We’ll have our awesome games launch and then there will be noobs-a-plenty!
Unfortunately, I don’t have my PS3. Lets just say that all of the money I had went toward things I needed to keep my current gaming in check and up to snuff. Winter will be my PS3 acquisition. It will happen. I won’t allow myself to put it toward anything else unless it is absolutely necessary. Regardless I have my Wii and my Xbox 360. Still though, I respect each platform for what they do. Each has an up and a down. Sometimes they have multiple ups and downs, but tell you what I could pick one up and find something fun to do. The Wii has been somewhat ignored. I’ll be gameflying quite a few games that my friend Lamar has shown me. *No, Lamar. I have not youtubed them yet.* There are quite a few I can’t wait to try. Silent Hill looks like fun. I’m sure I’ll shat myself. I look forward to the fun adventures that await. It’ll be a change in pace and those are always needed. This will happen of course after two events though.
The first event? Fallout: New Vegas. This is next Tuesday hurray! I can’t wait to immerse myself into that soon to be epic storyline. I’ve had a hankering, yes Schauna a hankering, to obliterate some raiders. Then again, I might just get my ass handed to me by a radroach…kinda like that mudcrab whooped my ass in Oblivion and Morrowind. Regardless it will be fun. I’ll be having Fallout dreams for a few weeks.
The second event? Black Ops, hah, you should have known that. I can’t wait to play this game. I’ve been replaying the MP event over and over again in my mind and have been taking it all in. I know what weapons I’ll use immediately and which ones seemed interesting. The SP trailer that aired yesterday was a blast. Reznov is such a bad ass. I love the Russian COD characters, and I am sure he will deliver. Woods is a crazy son’bitch from everything I have seen. One of the few American characters from COD that I actually respect and appreciate upon initial impressions. Sorry, Roebuck and Sullivan didn’t cut it for me. Either way this game is shaping up to be a hit. It’s been a privilege to be embedded in the community and help out.The experience has truly been a learning one. I am sure it will continue to be so. More and more I find myself identifying the ethnocentric values of gamers today, however. I wish I could change that, bu its obviously not my place though. I drop logic and information when I can. Call me an idealist, but people should learn on their own how to form educated opinions. Regardless, I do believe I have found a shooter to catch my eye and my palette for quite a while. Can’t wait to jump into MP again!
“Its gonna be huuuuuuuuuuuge.” Anyway, this was just an update. I haven’t blogged in a bit, so I figured I could do this. I also just procrastinated. I’ll do my paper tomorrow.
