  LittleBigThanks

  As promise in my last post, its Sunday and I'm posting. I really had a good time visiting my parents down in North Carolina. Few things, first it was really nice down there (hit 68 one day), everyone is really nice. The Wallmarts are huge compared to the ones in Jersey. Finally, it seems that every place I went sold beer. I just thought that was weird I guess. I also picked up LittleBigPlanet while I was down there. I have to agree with everyone in that this is a amazing game. I'm still working my way to through the single palyer. I also talked two of my friends into buying the game as well and they both love it. We've all been play together and it makes playing the game even better. I have gotten frustrated with jamping every now which led to some yelling at my friends. Also, every now and then I couldn't connect to my friends and had to keep trying. But all in good fun. I also played a few user created levels and I come to the conclusion that I probably won't create my own. It's not that I don't have the time, I feel I don't have the creative uh.......expertise to make anything great. Beides LBP, nothing else this week. Meet some people in the Home beta and a little Wipeout HD. No SOCOM this, that's a first.

  Finally sent my 360 away for repair. If I'm lucky, I'll get it back this week but I'm not holding my breath. I'm thinking about gettng a GameFly account. There are so many games to get but I do't have the funds right now to but them all. In all it's nice to be back home though I would of loved if the weather from NC came back with me, man its cold. That's all I got.

  Turkey Overdose

  I'm going to admit I almost quit again. Almost, but now I think, no I will post on Sunday nights now (after football of course). Ok games, a lot has been going. For some reason I started playing GTA 4 a lot. I'm not doing it for trophies or anything but I just got the mood to play some more GTA 4 is all. SOCOM of course. There is really else much I can say except I wish I could get clan invites. On a surprising note, I got an invite to the Home beta last week. I don't know how much I can say about it but I will say it has a lot of potential if Sony can keep some of the promises about about Home.

  I nice being down here in North Carolina though. I had a crazy thought of going to the Epic stuio but found out how far it is from my parents houe. I did find a huge arcade they have down here. I'm definately going to check that out tommorow (will take pics). Also still need to get Little Big Planet. Still no 360, but I'll finally send it away when I get back home. Now, I'm just enjoying being with my family. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and didn't eat too much.

  Mirror's Edge of History

  A little late with the post but still. I can not start without mentioning the history made last Tuesday. I may have complained about the time I spent volunteering for the campaign last post but it was well worth it to see the results on Tuesday. Looking back at it now, I probably do it all over again and maybe put in more time helping out. To all those who voted on Tuesday, thanks. Ok, no more about elections, time to talk about games

  I been playing over and over the Mirror's Edage demo. I must say, I'm really impressed. I just love the look of the city. Everything in this game is so bright and so clean. Sometimes I just stop and stare out at all of the beauitful cityscape. As far as the game goes, it does not hold your hand. If you do line up your jumps well, the games does not help you. This is not a complaint in no way but when I started playing, I kind of thought this was unfair at first. Now, I can kind of understand on account it would not authentic if the game kind of helped you out. I played so many times so far and only had one perfect run where I did miss a jump. If I had to complain about the game it feels kind of empty, meaing there is really no else around besides you and the cops. I mean, this is a massive city and you are telling me there is no else around. Also, this minor but I wish/hope there are parts in the game where you play at night. The city looks great in the day, but I would love to see what it looks lit up at night. All the videos I see seen so far only take play during the day. Minor complaints but still. I'm debating wether to pick up this game this week or Little Big Planet. Worse case, I'll just pick it up on Black Friday. I know some store will probably have it on sale. Still palying SOCOM, still mad at features being broken. Oh well, that game is just too good when I'm playing it. I try be in menus as little as posible b/c of this.

  Looks like I might, just might order the box from M$ so I can send it back for repair. This might be a probelm b/c I know that box will not come back to me before Thanksgiving and I won't even be here. I'll be down in North Carolina visiting parents and I don't want to have that box sitting my porch for a week while I'm not here not. I may have to wait til the begining of December to send it away. Besides that, I love the fact that I can watch Hulu on my PS3. I been waiting for this for a while. I just hope Hulu or Sony get wise and make Hulu run a little beter on the PS3. Alright, the Giants are playing right now and I'm tried of typeing. Thats all I got.
