I hope E3's a good one this year, there 'ought to be some killer games later on. I can't really say which ones I'm getting the most excitement from, but it looks to be an awesome lineup, ranking up there with last year's lineup.

This is a very short blog post, but I don't really have much else to say, seeing as e3 is still yet to come... Mayhaps I'll post a few more things later on dealing with some of the games I found interesting...

This game looks incredibly sweet.

Co-op multiplayer, although it's limited to 2 players, will still be awesome. Customizable characters, several professions, items and stuff like that will boost up the replay value. The 360 needs a good game that isn't an FPS, I'm getting pretty tired of all of those. This should add some new stuff to the console's library though, and even though it doesn't have competitive multiplayer, I'm sure it will still have loads of replay value.

*I had to put professions instead of cl@sses, because it censored out cl@sses...

So I got my 360 back and picked up Lost Odyssey to see how well it turned out. I've got to say I'm surprised. Gamespot gave it a 7.5 or something like that, and I wasn't thinking it was going to be that great. But man, so far it's been quite a killer JRPG. Seriously Gamespot, what were you guys thinking when you reviewed Lost Odyssey? Really now, you guys give 2 reasons to deduct 2.5 points off its score, and pretty crappy reasons at that...

• Protracted battle intros and other frustrations break up the pace
• Some nonbattle gameplay elements are boring, pointless, or needlessly frustrating.

What're you talking about here, and how do those two things detract from the gameplay so much that you've got to knock off a fourth of LO's score? Protracted battle intros? Wow, it takes like a second longer than normal JRPG's to get into a battle, and a lot of it is due to loading and the like. "Other frustrations?" The load times? Have you ever played a JRPG? I'm sorry, I forgot that load times are a thing of the past, this is "the next generation."

A lot of people also give LO crap because it didn't "revolutionize" the genre. This is the next generation of gaming maybe, but when does a game have to be "revolutionizing" to be good? Don't even try to pull that "LO isn't original" crap, because you know that's a lie. I think the only thing unoriginal about LO is its traditional JRPG battle system, even then only on basic levels.

I'm sorry GSpot, but if you're gonna do your job, review it right. It's not so much that you gave it a low score, but what gets it with me is your reasons for doing so. If you don't like a game, tell us what's bad about it, instead of just beating around the bush and nit-picking.

Dammit... I bought my 360 last June and it died right before Christmas, and now I got this new refurbished one back, which ran alright for a while, until now... So it just died and I'm pretty mad... I'm gonna have to call Microsoft for my freaking box and ship it off to the repair station... This blows...

Oh well, more time to spend on WoW I suppose.

Hey I've been looking into the PSP for a while now, but before I make any real decisions, I need to ask some questions...

1. How well does the PSP's WiFi features function (ie: internet browser, multiplayer, etc...)

2. Are there enough games? If not, does the quality of the games justify the low quantity? I've heard people say that the PSP is lacking in its amount of games.

3. Do the media features work well? (ie: sound quality, picture quality, etc...) And is it relatively easy to get these files onto your PSP?

4. Are the bundles worth the extra $40.00? The only reason I'd buy a bundle is for the memory stick, the included game and movie thing doesn't mean too much to me. Right now I'm thinking about buying just the regular PSP by itself, a 1G memory stick, and FFVII: Crisis Core.

5. Also, would the PSP be worth buying nowadays? I mean, do games still come out for it every once in a while and does Sony still release updates and features for it?

Thanks for your time.

Yeah, I got back into WoW... Yep... lol
