The wizard and the demon had a battle royale
The demon nearly kiiled him with a needle kapow
But then he broke his tooth and thus the demon said "Ow!"

  Guess what? I'M NOT DEAD!!!

  Hello, yes, I am alive! It's been a looong time since my last blog, hasn't it? Apologies for lack of updateage and commentage, but i'll try and do more now that i've remembered this site

  So, reasons for absence? There's only one, really, and her name is Anna. Most of my time is now spent with her. It's a funny thing when you find a girlfriend after 17 years of being single - ok, fine, babyhood and primary school don't count, but you know what I mean. Everything changes - you shower more, you pay attention to how you look, and you lose a hell of a lot of weight from walking to her house and backmost days. But, most disconcerting of them all, my PS2 and Wii got - *shudder* - dusty. I know, I know, but I don't regret it. Not for a second. I really couldn't ask for a better person to call my girlfriend. We get along great, we make each other laugh, and we have the same sort of interests. Apart from games. But i'm working on that.

  Anyway, enough of that. Recently, the dust has been wiped from my consoles and i've been getting stuck in. I got Guitar Hero III on the Wii for christmas, and I absolutely love it. There are a good few songs i'd heard before getting the game, but more of them i'd never heard of, and a lot of them have been hunted out and downloaded. By far the best GH yet - the battles are awesome. One thing that kind of annoys me though, is the lack of downloadable content. Fair enough, the Wii only has 512 MB of internal memory, but it has USB ports. Surely the potential for an external HDD is there? Apart from GH, I got Metroid Prime 3: Corruption with some of the money I got, and last week I hunted out Mercenaries again, and Rogue Galaxy. I remembered hearing about Rogue Galaxy before, and having loved Level 5's Dragon Quest VIII, I snapped it up. Excellent stuff, my only real complaint is that a game where you travel the galaxy should not rely on corridors in all it's maps.

  Anyway, must go now, the dinners ready and i'm hungry!

  Whoa. That long?

  I only just noticed how long it's been since i've posted a blog on here. How time flies, eh?

  Hmm, Metal Slime level. I've heard horror stories about this. Supposed to take muuuuuuch longer to level up than the other levels. Is that right?

  My 17th birthday was last friday. FINALLY got to see Transformers! *Happy dance* I swear, I could watch that film on a loop endlessly, it just rocked. It was worth the ticket price alone to hear Frenzy say "Oh s***" and Megatron shout "F**got!" at Sam Just the one game for birthday this year, cos my main pressie is driving lessons. I got Trauma Center on the Wii. Only just out here in the UK, which I was always peed off about. Anyway, it's a great game, although my one complaint is we could have had more operations. It seemed to me like it was glass in arm, tumour, tumour, tumours, then GUILT for the rest of the game. I've finished all the episodes, but I like the game enough to go for S Rank in all of them at all the difficulties.

  Thats about it for now methinks. Oh yeah, one more thing on a personal note:

  I'M IN LOVE!

  Eh-heh, just felt like shouting that out, but i'd probably get strange looks from the neighbors, so better not

  The FanFic Union

  I'm going to try and start up a union. It's called the FanFic Union, and it's mainly for sharing and reviewing each others fanfics (fan fictions - spin off short stories of games). There will be forums for every type of game, and ideas for any more features would be appreciated. Now... who wants to be an officer??? Leave a comment here, or PM me!
