If FFXIII really does go multi-platform, there may be an XBOX 360 in my future rather than a PS3...

Now, I'm not saying I told you so... I'm implying it, sure. Good to finally see it. I can't afford a 360 right now, but even if I could I would've held out for the bigger harddrive. As superior as Microsoft currently is in regards to online play and game selection, their hardware reliability is ridiculously bad. Hopefully, these upgraded Xboxes will run a little smoother... maybe? Please? As for the UK PS3 numbers, they must've sold those consoles the following day. The literal at-midnight (or whenever they started selling them) launch was clearly a bust. I mean, three people waiting in line at one of the biggest retailers? Still, good news for Sony, yes. However, I'm still waiting for the system to live up to its seemingly godlike potential. All I see, at the moment, is an expensive George Foreman grill that I see no reason to consider purchasing.

But George Foreman grill's are a good investment. See, the grease just runs down the slats, so the food is nice and...
...sorry. ;D

BTW if anyone wants to add me to their Wii message list,pm me and I'll give ya my Wii #. I'll have to take you up on that. Anyway, I'm nearing another one of my "Gamer Goals". Those are small things I like to do to keep myself playing a game. In ALttP, I've got 9999 uses for 19/20 "Constant" items. I'm working on Bombos right now. I even remember where I did each of them... Light World, Bow and Silver Arrows - East Palace Fire Rod - North of Kakariko Bombos - Swamp Ether - North of Kakariko Flute - Desert of Mystery Book of Mudora - Lost Woods Shovel - Haunted Grove Cane of Somaria - North of Kakariko Cane of Byrna - North of Kakariko Magic Cape - North of Kakariko Dark World, Boomerang - Pyramid of Power Hookshot - Pyramid of Power Bomb - Western Dark Woods(NE of Village of Outcasts) Magic Powder - Lake Hylia Ice Rod - Pyramid of Power Quake - Lake of Ill Omen Lantern - Souther Dark Woods(W of Bomb Shop) Magic Hammer - Pyramid of Power Bug Catching Net - Death Mountain Magic Mirror - Thieves' Town I...finally...did...it! Bombos 9999 uses. Took me a loooong time, but I got it done. I still have to get Zora's Flippers and Titan's Mitt to 9999 uses, but I'm overjoyed.

Microsoft has formally announced the new 360. The only real curveball is the fact that it isn't limited edition. Looks like I'm going to have to shell out an additional $80 if I want the new harddrive, after all. (It'll run you $179 if you only want to upgrade the harddrive of your old 360.) Nothing else is new on the inside though, which is a downer. Same old 360, just a different color and WAY more storage capacity. Not too shabby.

Whoo! Just got C&C3: Kane Edition.
It's a very fun game indeed. The way C&C should be. BTW, I appearently got the Limited Edition, only 100,000 will be produced. I have #431,331 or something like that.
Still, the game rocks, so I'm happy.

Until I can prove otherwise Beaumont, I'm going to assume they are telling the truth. I have no reason to doubt them.

I have been playing my 360 religiously since I bought it for x-mas. I beat GOW which was a funny and well-built game.
I got Lego Star Wars II and beat it in a week.
I got Tony Hawk's Project 8 but I am not happy with it
Bought NBA Street Homecourt and it's all good
Getting Guitar Hero II this tuesday and that should take over my free-time until I go to Camp this summer.
The best thing about the 360 is the Achievements, I play games more often to unlock them, they are a game within themselves.

Guitar Hero - Fun to play if you have the coordination, not so fun to watch other people play it.

For Halo 2 fans, they just announced the two new multiplayer maps up for purchase on April 17th. Quite exciting for me, as they're remakes of two of Halo 1's best maps. I've never been happier to give Microsoft four dollars.
On KoL, I don't see anything too interesting for April Fool's Day. No Spectral Pickle Factories or anything. Just some expensive store items that aren't really accessible to us newcomers. Still, I got some delicious herb brownies yesterday, while trick-or-treating. ;D
Sia, how many accounts do you have? I've been contemplating making another one, but I don't know if it's going to be too much of a headache for me.

I've been contemplating making another one, but I don't know if it's going to be too much of a headache for me. Unless that NS13 stuff is an April Fool's thing, yeah, pretty much. I have my main Disco Bandit, and I just started an alt Sauceror. I signed up for a Turtle Tamer Friday morning and I have yet to get the activation code. I thought maybe they didn't give it because of Halloween yesterday (rough on a noob), but I STILL haven't gotten it. I'll give it until Monday and then I'm writing. I don't use my multiples just to farm for each other-I have them so I can play with the other Classes a bit. The alt is actually fun because I get to try the new class, and I can do a lot better on the second go round. Just don't try to do both at the same time-it gets confusing. Oh, and I totally went Frat Boy for both characters. The amount of booze I got was ridiculous. I loved it!

Yeah, the NS13 stuff is a joke. (There IS an upcoming NS13 update, I believe, but the stuff included in this list is either too silly or too ridiculously hard.)
Well, I just made myself a Pastamancer character, Templeton Peck. (Get THAT reference.) Hopefully it doesn't become a headache, having two.
