I am now the proud owner of a Sony PlayStation 3

I picked up Virtua Fighter 5 with it and plan to pick up Resistance and possibly Motorstorm next.

My PSN ID is [SlashZaku]

Well...where to start.

Once again, I've disappeared after saying I'd be around for awhile...yeah, I know. I don't keep many promises when it comes to Gamespot. I've found a more fulfilling experience hanging out at the PlayStation.com forums and PS3forums.com. So, I wouldn't consider this a permanent stay of any sort but we'll see...again.

Graduation Coming Up

We'll, I'm on my last week of school. EVER. And it feels good. Come May 17th, it'll be my last day of High School and I'll be done with what I've been so tired of. It's been a long ass ride and I've had more bad times than good but all in itself, it was a unique experience. Word of advice - DON'T take an online course during your final year. I screwed around during the second semester of Algebra II and it came to bite me in the ass this year. I had my damn counselor telling me she has rarely (out of like 30 students taking the **** had someone pass Algebra II online. I knew this and went along with it anyway knowing that math in general wasn't my strong point. So for the past week or so, I've been stressed trying to get as much work done as possible before the 10th to take my Final for the course. To my surprise, I got a C on the spot for the exam and pulled a 74% average for the course itself. That .5 of a credit that was gonna keep me from graduating is no longer a problem. It was a very stressful experience because they were giving me stuff the Pre-Cal students were taking and the teacher was no help so if you want to avoid my situation, PAY ATTENTION IN ****AND GET IT DONE THE FIRST TIME AROUND.

PlayStation 3 in the Next Few Weeks...

I'll finally be able to get my PlayStation 3 in the coming weeks thanks to my Birthday (May 22nd) and Graduation (May 24th). If money permits, I'll see about an HDTV (nothing big, something that me and my cousins can play on in my small ass room) but I have my mind set on getting 2, or all 3 of: Virtua Fighter 5, Motorstorm, and/or Resistance. Afterwards, I'll be awaiting the coming lineup of great games, the first being Ninja Gaiden Sigma.

Square Enix Party 2007

With the recent party going on, there is a lot of games that just hit the radar. PSP seems to be getting a lot of love from Square Enix with Final Fantasy I, Final Fantasy II, Final Fantasy Tactics: Lion's War, Final Fantasy Dissidia, Star Ocean 1 Remake and a Star Ocean 2 Remake. Final Fantasy Dissidia really has my attention as it'll have Final Fantasy IX characters in it (glad to see Square hasn't forgot about them.) and it looks amazing. I'll be keeping an eye on Last Remnant until a trailer or some more info comes out for it.

Curiosity Killed My PlayStation 2

As mentioned above, I'll be getting a PlayStation 3, so I decided to take my PS2 apart for the hell of it I've done it before (to adjust the laser level so it would load up games from startup quicker) but this time, I payed the price. While putting it back together, the silver strip that connects to the Power/Eject buttons came out from where it was connected I'm sure I can probably find a way to fix it but yeah...bye bye PS2. I've looked online and they have replacement strips and my PS2 is out of warranty already and so I'm not gonna leave my little buddy like this. When I get some money from whenever I get a job, I'll order one and fix him right up. I wouldn't feel right leaving it like this after all the great games it's allowed me to play.

Going Back to San Antonio

Because I'm finally out this year, I'll be heading back to San Antonio with my dad who is gonna help me get a car. Don't know what kind of car but I'll be finally able to drive and go places on my own. I'll no longer have to wait around for a family member to take me somewhere. So when I do get back here in Florida, me and my older cousin are gonna go look for a job so we can just carpool to work and finally have our own income and I'll be able to support my gaming/anime/comic book hobbies, and myself in general.

Future Job Possibility

Well, I was left in charge of making the DVD cover for our Senior DVD at school and one of the teachers that saw it apparently has a son who works advertisement for the Devil Rays. She said if I can get a portfolio together, she can show him and probably get me some work or even a scholarship to one of those specialtly colleges that specialize in Digital Design (I've been looking at Full Sail). So, I got something to fall back on if I need a job but I might go along with it. The teacher said that working freelance is like ~$30 an hour.

I just realized the word 'C-L-A-S-S' is censored Good ol' Gamespot

I thought I've been getting PSM for the past 3-4 years as a loyal subscriber but I was shown different today.  I was looking through some older issues that were stacked up and to my surprise, they go back as far as 2002.  I didn't know I have been subscribed that long   Last issue on this term is June's (just got the May issue where they have some hands on time with DMC4 [16pgs], Turok, a lengthly interview with Jack Trentton, and they even have a nice screen of FFXIII's Shiva that I haven't seen before) so I need to resubscribe this month to make sure I don't miss an issue

Okay, I'm finding the checkpoint placements in Gears of War to be ridiculous.  I'm at the Underground Pump Station where I have to secure the platform from the Locust with the Torque Bows and beside all the times that I've been killed at the part, the prior checkpoint f***ing sucks.  It placed way back from the platform so when I die, I have to run quite a distance, walk as I listen to a communication, and then see the same damn "When's the last time the wind said..." cutscene.  That's the most aggravating part.  And I've come across other parts in the game where it's exactly the same (checkpoint is quite a bit away from where you died and there is a cutscene thrown in there for good measure ).  Now being a shooter, it becomes on the repetitive/annoying side when you have to watch the damn thing every time you die, especially with the amount of the deaths you suffer from (Gears of War = enemies with the most 'Lucky Shots' ever )

 Anyways, just wanted to vent as I'm about to go back at it...again...for the umpteenth time...
