My Spidey Senses are Tingling

In brightest day, in darkest night
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might
Beware my power, Green Lantern's light!
Christmas blog
Well HO-HO-HO to to everyone and I hope this x-mas has been good for you all I'm positive this is one of the best holiday seasons in gaming history. I recently received Super Mario galaxy, Mass Effect and Bioshock for Christmas and I'm couldn't be any happier. Right now I took a break from collecting stars in SMG to emerse myself in the undersea city of rapture. Bioshock is blowing me away (I know I'm rather late to the party) it is an outstanding interactive experience. The little I've played of Mass Effect has also exceeded my expectations; M E truly has the best dialog in any game I've ever played, I can't wait until i can get my hands deeper into it. As for Super Mario Galaxy it is also a superb game, it is a ton of fun and has finally gotten me to turn on my Wii for once.

I plan on getting some reviews up, there are quite a bit I want to do on games I've played. I also recently purchased the xbox 360 chatpad which is actually pretty nifty but the thing is I don't really have and MSN contacts so I can't im people while I play

So let me kno what is happening in everyone's worlds and again I hope everyone is doing well.

Gamerang!
Yes I am close to making the decision of subscribing to Gamerang, which is the east coast's equivalent of Gamefly. After noticing my ever increasing pile of xbox 360 games and of course the ever increasing price I've decided that spending so much money on games is not such a great idea. But on the other hand paying a monthly fee may cost me more yearly in gaming than in actually purchasing the damn things. It turns out that after crunching the numbers gamerang will prove more cost efficient; on top of that I have noticed that my interest in games has dwindled and I have become more picky as to what i consider a game worth my money. case in point Assassins Creed, a great game but definitely not worth the regular retail price of $60; its achievements don't give it any longer lasting value as many of them involve searching for pick ups (boring). Another good example can be said about Bioshock, which is one of the greatest games to have come our way, but due to the fact that it is single player only it may be only worth a rental on gamerang. Now I doubt I would want to give it back once I become immersed in it so that may actually be a bad example but you probably get the gist of what I'm saying.

In other news, I seem to be having problems syncing my Zune to my PC; I keep getting an error message that I am missing the required packages to install it. I'll need to do more research as I would really like to use my Zune.

I got a PSP, and other delayed news...
So yea according to the title I got a PSP, two as a matter of fact; I have a black PSP and a brand new Silver Slim PSP. No they're not new but they work perfectly fine. And no they're not stolen either, they were found with a myriad of other goodies as well. Those of you who have PSP's and wouldn't mind helping a brother out should let me know how to set up and use the various online functions for the handheld. The games I have are Daxter which is a pretty good game, and the family Guy Game, which is.... a not so good game. From checking the former owner's memory sticks he has Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops which would have been a welcomed edition but unfortunately he didn't lose it along with everything else.

In other news I've purchased both Call of Duty 4 and Assassin's Creed. Call of Duty 4 is an amazing experience and easily my game of the year candidate; great game with long lasting value. As for Assassin's Creed it has some very cool innovations for the genre as well as for gaming in general, but to me it seems a lot like a glorified pick 'em up game; hopefully Ubisoft will change the annoying citizen saving and what not, reminds me a lot of the Spider-man games.

I also happen to have a Zune no which is pretty cool, though I like the ipod much more, my dad already took hold of that... does anyone know how to make the Zune password enabled? Its really the only way I can see myself putting music into it so my dad won't go into a rampage over what I'm listening to. hopefully if I find time between gaming, homework, and finals I can put up all of the reviews I've been wanting to do, cya until next time everybody.

Long awaited
Yup, I'm back I know its been a long time since I've last written a blog here on G-Spot but I've been super busy as of late... but let me not be rude and give everyone an update on what's been going on.

In the gaming hemisphere of my world I beat Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (in August), now I know I was going to write a review but its a bit too late, well actually its not but I don't know if I have time. The game was an amazing experience I I honestly feel sorry for those foolish enough to pass it up for fickle reasons like graphics and such. It was an amazing conclusion to the Prime trilogy, I can't wait till the next installment in Samus' story. I recently purchased The Orange Box, which is a very, very impressive package of gaming. Team Fortress 2 is a blast and one of the most strategic multiplayer experiences out there. As for Half-Life 2, what is there to say that hasn't been already said. HL 2 and its subsequent episodes are some of the most mind blowing entertainment experiences out there, it should not be missed. Even I who was tired of FPS am loving HL, its really great. I had a difficult time choosing this game though as I was thinking of getting Halo 3, but Masterchief will have to wait. I've also DLed Super Puzzle Fighter HD, Puzzle Quest and Yaris. SPF and Puzzle Quest are really good games, as for yaris I haven't played it yet but I'm not expecting much.

As for non game related business I've started college and its been good so far. I've met a lot of cool people, some good looking girls but I haven't seen enough of the upper classmen to say anything. I'm a bit worried that i may be failing a few classes but its still midway through the semester, and I'm definitely going to kick it into high gear. But thats about it, I'll try to blog more frequently and in more detail about important things lol.

A strange lump continued, and other gaming related news.
So for those of you that read my earlier blog about the strange lump in my right breast, I went to the doctor today and everything was fine. According to the doctor it was due to "sexual maturity"... so yea my breastesses, jugs, tig 'ol bitties whatever you'd liek to call them are completely fine.

Now for other news more appropriate for G-Spot I purchased Metroid Prime 3 Corruption yesterday, and I'm having a blast with the game. The controls are really smooth compared to the last MPs, but the Wii has yet to surpass the infamous keyboard and mouse. I'll have a review up later this week hopefully.

In other gaming news, my Xbox 360 after nearly two years of service expired on Monday. I was horrified to see the three red rings of death flashing from my baby. I'm still waiting for the box MS is supposed to send me so that I can send them my 360. It's a shame we really shared some happy moments these past two years. I felt so immortal, having a launch system that gave me no problems; as a matter of fact it fell from a vertical position three times and still worked perfectly; but alas my 360's processor could no longer send kb of info.... o woe is me!

a strange lump...
So I seem to have a strange lump (don't laugh) in my right nipple; its been there for about a week and I didn't pay it too much mind, until I told my father today about it.

See I had lumps in my breasts lol, earlier in my life when I was going to puberty. Most young men get this, its what creates a folding in our chest so that we'll go from being flat chested to....ugh manly chested. Again it happened to me once before and it was fine afterward, but its back again. What I'm thinking is that I'm going through another growth spurt (I'm 18 ) since puberty officially ends at about 21. Now of course everyone is different but I suppose its a good idea to go see my doctor about this.

If you're wondering yes Men can also get breast cancer but its not as prevalent as women with breast cancer, in case you don't know you can get cancer anywhere, but you''l sometimes hear it as being a benign tumor or such.

Strange blog I know but I felt like sharing it with you guys lol, so if anyone knows anything on this subject be free to share your thoughts.
