10/31/2006 God of War: Aegean SeaOver the weekend I began to play God of War on the PS2 for the first time. (yes, I realize I'm way behind but I'm here now so don't judge me!) I figure I need something to accupy me until the onslaught of games coming soon. Here's my adventure so far: So I'm walking along and come to a ship's mast (I assume that's what this is) and I apparently have to tippee-toe across it to the other side. I notice that it branches off to the right and decide to check it out...Red orbs chest! Woo hoo! So I gather my secret-hidden-only-the-best-gamers-like-me-find-these-orbs-I'm-sure and begin to tippee-toe back to where I was to continue on to the other side. At least that was my plan that ended up more like this: -Hmmm, I wonder what's over here...careful...walk slowly...careful...don't fa-crap! X button X button! Whew...ok...oh cool! A chest of red orbs! OK, now walk back the way you came Kratos...slowly...slow-crap! X-X-X-X whew, that was clos-X-X-X! OK, I'll make it now...son of a bit-how the heck did he fall off?? OK, now let's head back to the red orbs...ok now just go back to where you were-son of a bit-how is this happening?? OK, go to the red orbs...now back where you came fr-X-X-X! Now repeat this about 10-12 times and you have me playing the first part of the game. After this episode in torture, the Hydra boss was a walk in the park...Silly old Kratos...  10/27/2006 Blogging Potpourri, Smell the Freshness! (Or just Smell the Glove)Well, my 30th birthday went off
without a hitch (except for the 7 hour flight delay) and 30 really
doesn't feel all that different...What does feel different is my name
being on the list for Epic's Gears of War party
this Saturday night! Woo hoo! I haven't decided if I want to drive 2
and a half hours to get to it but if I do go I'll be sure to post any
pics I may take. Back on the birthday front, my darling friend Sean80 sent me my very own copy of God of War (that's right, I have not played this game) so I will be doing some serious damage on the PS2 this weekend! Thanks Sean! Want to really show off those 360 stats to others? Go check out my360stats.com (don't look at my stats though...I apparently finish very few games. :P) By the way, have you seen the Chad Vadar, Day Shift Manager videos on YouTube.com? If you haven't, you must! Funniest thing ever... Speaking of ever, BSG's episode last week? BEST.EPISODE.EVER. I can't wait for tonight's episode! Most of you may have noticed my lack of playing the 360. Basically Cooking Mama for the DS took me hostage but with the November Deluge coming up soon, I'm sure to be back on board with the 360. Yippee! 10/18/2006 I Echo Darth Vadar When I Say: Nooooooooooo!ATTENTION: IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT TO FOLLOW OK, so it's not really important so much as interesting...actually it may not even be interesting so I apologize in advance...alright...here goes... As of this Friday, I (ICandee) will be 30 years old. Yes yes I know that is hard to believe but trust me when I say I don't want to believe it either... Therefore, I am running away to New York (for the weekend). I will see you all when I get back and I'm sure to have more pictures of $10 beers and museum oddities. Now if you will excuse, I'm off to try out Lumines... Have a great weekend everyone! If you see some crazy lady on the news running down the streets of NY screaming, it's just me...or it may actually be just a crazy lady... 10/16/2006 Attack of the Show: The Day The Music DiedOh AOTS...I remember when the good old days when you were relevant and spoke on important issues about video games...wait, no I don't. But whatever those days were, they are gone now and we'll never get them back. On Friday's episode, we had a very informative segment on the newest sex toy that you can connect to your PC via a USB and download your favorite songs to it. One can only imagine that this is so you can not only sing about getting "jiggy" with it, but actually be "jiggy" while singing about how you're getting "jiggy". (Assuming I know the correct use of the term, "jiggy".) But wait, there's more! The next segment was an interview with the band "Deadsy". Now, I have met a member of the group (Creature), who is the brother of one of my good friends. (bully for me) I also assume that they take their music seriously as I suppose any good artist should do but this was no mere interview! This interview was not only about their newest album nor their tour...no, no! The greatest amount of time was spent on Layla Kayleigh (her birth name I'm sure) putting make-up on the front man, Elijah Blue, otherwise known as Cher's son. Stop the presses! What is news like this doing on G4? Get this on C-Span people! Hello! I thought I was the only one that found that these segments both sucked and blowed, until I visited the good and noble town of Flynn:  Sheesh...no one's safe! Arrested Development just can't catch a break... 10/6/2006 Adventure! Warlords! Human Cannonball?First things first: HAPPY BSG SEASON 3 PREMIERE!!! Woo hoo!!! As you might remember I mentioned that someone I know offered me an Atari system with some games. Well I went to look and see what she had, thinking I'd come away with a little something. Here's what I came home with (for free I might add):     Holy Pitfall Batman! I also got an original "Frogger" box and inside was a stack of game manuals, including one for the infamous "E.T." game...What a deal! I mean who needs this:  When you can have this:  For FREE?!?! Excuse me while I do the free gaming happy dance... *uh huh w00t lalalalalala me love free stuff dodeedodeedo* How awesome is that? |
