Hello to my fellow gaming friends and welcome to another blog post of mine. I haven't had the time to post a blog in over a month and tons of things happen during that time. So let's get right to it. Here we go (I must use this phrase).

Black Friday of last year (about two months ago) was quite crazy for my family and I. We actually went to Wal-Mart on Thursday night, seeing the God of War Saga in their ad for only $15 dollars. Good thing I wanted PlayStation 3 games, rather then XBOX 360 because that line was messy. It wasn't really a line though. They had their game in this square box and customers just surrounded it before it was opened by a employee. Customers by the XBOX 360 game box was pushing and shoving, where as PlayStation fans were not as bad. I was able to get the God of War Saga that I wanted and NBA 2K13 for just $25. My brother picked up Batman Arkham City GOTY Edition the next day for only $15 dollars as well.

I only played a tad bit of Chains of Olympus, enjoying it. Looking forward to started the original title in the near future.

Many of you know that I'm a big fan basketball and I haven't played a 2K title since 2006. Really enjoying it with friends.

I adored Batman Arkham Asylum and I've been waiting for the GOTY edition of Arkham City to come on sale.

My famiy and I seen The Hobbit: An Expected Journey about a month ago and I thought it was truly amazing. The action and the light hearted scenes tied in rather well. I first seen the Lord of the Rings Trilogy at a young age, had a hard time understanding what so going on. I wanted to re watch the trilogy in anticipation for The Hobbit, and I was blown away by how great it is. I now adore the series, having so many memorable characters.

My Christmas this year was filled with Legos. I first purchased the Lego Lord of the Rings game for the PS3, adoring every minute of seeing Gandalf in Lego form. On Christmas morning, I opened two Lego LotR sets. The first one was from the Hobbit (seen in the image above) and the second set is from a scene in the Return of the King. The Hobbit set took me several hours to complete, listening to Shire music in that time. I also received a gift to Amazon and some money that I have yet to spend.

I haven't played too many titles that were released in 2012, since I bought a PS3 in late 2011. I played games from Uncharted series as well as the InFamous titles. There are a few 2012 games though that I did play and enjoy. Here is my top five favorite games of 2012.

5. Kid Icarus Uprising
4. New Super Mario Brothers 2
3. Playstation All Star Battle Royale
2. Lego Lord of the Rings
1. Pokemon White Version 2

Speaking of Pokemon White Version 2, I've been playing it for weeks nonstop. A team tournament at my local library coming up so I'm training some legendary Pokemon for that. If you would like to battle me, send me a personal message. I won't use legendaries for our battle.

Anime Club at my local library comes once (wish it was twice) a month, and this month is having a Pokemon team tourament which I recently mentioned. It's more like video game club since we usually just play Brawl the whole time. They also have a art contest each month that I partake it in. This drawing of Goku came in second place last month.

The Mushroom Kingdom Union that I originally created is going strong, but needs some new active members to keep in full swing. If you are a fan of the Super Mario series, I would appreciate if you check it out here.

Well that is all for this rather long update. I will never put several subjects into one blog again lol. The Super Bowl is almost here yet again, hoping the Ravens win tonight against the Pats. Ray Lewis deserves another championship ring before retiring. Thanks for reading this and please feel free to leave a comment below. Have a good day tomorrow.
