Renewed Interest....

So I have been out of town for almost 3 weeks straight. On my last week I decided to start reading Fall of Reach by Eric Nylund again. I have read it twice but loved it so after reading the Game Informer article this month featuring Reach I thought it might be handy. I enjoyed as expected so I decided to picked up Halo Evolutions, the collection of short stories, and it's pretty good. Got me interested in Halo again so I finished Halo Wars (I only had about two missions left) and I'm playing through ODST on Legendary. I may finish my Halo 3 Legendary run after that we'll see. So I guess my love of Halo is still around despite the crappy trailer for Reach. From all the assets I've seen on Bungie.net it looks amazing. Thank god the redesigned the engine, models, sounds and weapons. It might actually be a upgrade this time. Can't wait to try out the Beta. Oh yeah don't for get Feb 16th Halo Legends on Blu-Ray so you can play Halo on your PS3.

Akira Kurosawa on Netflix Instant View

Yesterday saw a HUGE update on Netflix Instant View regarding Kurosawa films. They updated with the following:

Dreams
High and Low
Yojimbo
Sanjuro (just watched this today AMAZING, sequel to Yojimbo)
Hidden Fortress
Seven Samurai
Ikiru
Rashomon

Sanjuro is my second favorite besides Seven Samurai. But really picking your favorite Kurosawa film is like picking your favorite child. Do yourself a favor and watch them on your PS3 or Xbox Live start with Seven Samurai you'll love it.

Halo Reach

Excited for Halo Reach? Well don't be visit Youtube or watch the rerun of Spikes VGA's and you have waited two hours for a pre-rendered trailer that does nothing for most. Watch a ODST or Spartan fly in watch them leave toward battle. No game play, no mention of the beta absolutely nothing that has anything to do with the game. This almost puts a nail in the coffin for my 360. Face it Halo is out dated ODST was a fresh as Bungie can make it. Oh and Lucasarts....... Force Unleashed 2? Really? No Battlefront 3? Great....

Long break lots of loot!!

So I haven't posted for 3 months and well I'm sure about 5 people visited since then and they didn't notice. So in my break I have been busy. Got a new job starting first of the year and have been playing some new stuff. I started using Goozex to get rid of some old movies and games that I wouldn't get much for on Ebay. The system rocks send in old crap and at least get 100 points equal to about 5 bucks if I remember correctly. So got some points and got two new/used games. Metal Gear Solid 4 and Super Mario Galaxy. MGS4 is nothing short of amazing the first boss battle in the old shack vs Laughing Octopus was eerie and fun to figure out. I've upgraded my M4 with laser sight, laser scope and shotgun attachment. I spent so long just messing around the Middle East levels finding ammo and weapons. Weapons! I am such a weapon whore I want to find or kill guys so I can get more points for upgrades or new weapons from Drebin. I love the scene with Raiden. I'm enjoying it far more than anything else this year, well besides the next game.



Demon's Souls is the most brutal, sinister and scary at some points, game I have ever played. It's pretty unforgiving as most reviewers have said. So I went in to Boletaria with the perception I would die a lot, which I did. I spent 3 hrs at least in 1-1 memorizing the layout and how to kill the enemies. I spent a lot of time on the red demon knight in front of the mausoleum before I read online you can't kill him that early. I did do the trick of luring him all the way over to the large spirl staircase and watched him fall to his death for 2000 souls. But he seems to have wised up and won't fall for it again. I finished that up and started on 1-2 going in and out of other levels to get more souls and level up a little before tackling the Tower Knight in 1-2. Once you first see this guy you will shit your pants. He is huge and this is the first real boss battle that is a challenge. I can't get enough of this game it's like crack every night this week I have been playing for 3-4hrs. I'm still only done with 3 bosses total but with my level going up I'm having more fun just going through and farming souls. Visit http://demonssouls.wikidot.com/ for tons of info on everything from boss strategies and weapon upgrades. But try the boss on your own first it's more fun to figure it out yourself. If your stuck use the wiki on the second play through or just for hints. Thats all for now move along nothing to see here!
