  A New Blog (At Last)

             After months of working ,studying, and taking tests, I am finally free of the madness. This means that I can post whenever I want. However, I will be out for a few days in July. I'm free from the prison known as school. No more taking tests, no more doing homework at the last minute, and no more hearing my math teaching say that my classmate and I are going to fail in life. 

  

   

            Meanwhile, I purchased a few things a few days ago. I ended up getting 2000 MS points and Darkstalkers Resurrection. So far, Darkstalkers Resurrection is pretty good. I'm still going though all of the tutorials, since I'm new to the franchise. My favorite characters at the moment are Lord Raptor, Q-Bee, Hsien-Ko, B.B. Hood, and Jon Tailban. I have not played through story mode just yet, as I am still trying to master the characters. I am getting back to Max Payne on the PS2. I'm on Part 3 as of right now. The prologue is still giving me a hard time, since all I can rely on is a red line. 

         In terms of music, I've been listening to a lot of Girls' Generation, Justin Timberlake, Linkin Park, and Sistar. Justin Timberlake's new album is actually one of my favorite albums of this year. When it comes to Girls' Generation, I thought they were average, but they grew on me. One of my favorite songs from them is Genie. 

   

   

  Well, I'm out for the night.

  General Things..

              This year seems to be flying off very quickly, since it's about to April in 4 days. I'm not quite sure if I'm going to play an April Fools joke this year though. I have less than 2 months in school and I'll be out. Even though this year has gotten better for me, I'm still allergic to Monday . In between school and preparing for many other things for later on this year, I've been losing more and more free time in the process. 

               Meanwhile, I got volume 1 of Bleach two weeks ago. The volume was very good, and I plan on getting volumes 2 and 3. I also got book 2 of Thirst by Christopher Pike. So far, it's amazing. Even though it has 582 pages, I've manages to get page 328 in the past 2 days . I will most likely get book 3 when I get volumes 2 and 3 of Bleach. I haven't purchased any games since January. I think I might just splurge on the next shopping spree I have .

                Tomorrow I get to fly a kite. I think it looks good, especially since I'm not very good at drawing. I played archery today . It's not that I was horrible, it's just that some of my arrows got stuck in the ground. Plus, one of my arrows flew over the target. Oh well . 

  

   

  I'm out for day.

  The Best and Worst Theme Songs from Games I've Played(Part 1)

                  The list isn't going in any particular , as some are remixes from the original theme are going to be matched up together(Some were worse than the originals). 

  

  Yes, I'm including remixes. But it will still say if it's the best or worst. Off to the list.

   

   

  The Best and Worst from Street Fighter III 3rd Strike:

  

  First up is Jazzy NYC '99 from Street Fighter III 3rd Strike. This theme song for Alex and Ken(Pictures are below), was very catchy. I also enjoyed Dudley's and Twelve's(Also seen below) themes. The bad thing was that when Street Fighter III 3rd Strike: Online Edition was released, the remixes where not meeting the standards from the original theme. Many(Including me), were disappointed. Although not all the remixes were horrible, a large majority wasn't good at all. I think out of all 20 remixes, I might've liked 2 or 3 of them. The worst ones in my opinion were actually the ones I liked best, which were Alex and Ken's theme, Dudley's, Elena's, and Twelve's. Although Twelve's remix wasn't that bad, it was still a disappointment. I'm submitting the links to the themes.

  Alex and Ken's Theme(Original)

   Alex and Ken's Theme(Remix by Kariu)

  The sad thing is, Kariu's remix is better than the composer's remix that's actually in the game.

        The other game I'm doing in this blog is Alex Kidd: In The Enchanted Castle. This game was fairly good, with decent music. I liked the Castle's theme and the theme were you are in a desert. Although most of theme were good, there was one theme in particular that was just horrible. It was the helicopter theme. That theme song made me want to pull out my eardrums. It was that bad. Again, I am posting the links at the bottom. I can't really say too much about the game, since there wasn't anything bad about the music.

     Part 2 of this will be released by the end of this week or early next week
