  I am about to OD on games!!!

  Thats right. I have purchased so many games recently I think I will OD!!!! Well, that probably won't happen. I mean, you can never have enough games, right?!

  To start off, I already know one of my Christmas gifts. My wife actually told me to go buy it!!! Really it is a present for the family but it is mine!!! Bwwwaahhhh, bbwwwahhhhh!!!! It is all wrapped up and now I have the task of waiting until the morning of December 25th!!!

  

  As I don't currently own RockBand, this is the complete set up. That crazy shotgun carrying Brit, PJ24 , finally convinced me to become a hard rocking dude!!! So, soon you will all have him to blame for my new obsession!!!!

  I have also recently purchased a few down loadable games from PSN.

  

  

  This game is highly addictive!! Something about rescuing people and leading them to a safety zone has me hooked!!!

  

  This game reminds me of the good old days ( updated graphically) of Arkanoid on the NES!!!! It came with a cool special controller!!! Awesome fun!!

  
  

  Shatter, like Arkanoid has very addictive gameplay. So hard to put down the controller!!

  Also added Gravity Crash

  and Comet Crash to my downloaded games from PSN. Both games are freakin awesome!!!

  And Pixel Junk Shooter releases next Thursday!!!

  

  Aggghhh!!! So many games and so little time!!!! And the game that is demanding most of my time is:

  

  I love this game!!! Platform gaming at its best!!! And there is so much nostilgia wrapped up in this game for me. I keep going back and playing thru levels because it is just so much darn fun!!! If you own a Wii, this is a must buy if you haven't already!!

  And still playing inFamous, Unchartedrakes Fortune, Bionic Commando, Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard and Tekken 6!! So many games!!! Like I said: Games over dose!!

  But I know come Christmas I will be picking up my brand new Hofner bass

  and banging out the line for "Get Back" !!!!

  That is all.

  Now go back to playing your games!!!

  And make it a great day!!!!

  Just the facts, ma'me.

  Anybody care to take a stab at what TV show my blog title is from?!

  Okay. After a long delay I finally give you 10 facts. If you remember, Yagr_Zero tagged me some time ago so now you all have to be bored with 10 facts about me!!!

  Some of you who have been coming to my blogs for awhile probably already know a few facts about me so just read a book!!!

  1.) I have never caught a fish!!! That's right. Not once. My most recent failure was in the Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess video game!!! I can't even catch a fish in a video game!!

  2.) Both of my eyes have artificial lenses. I have what some might say, "Bionic eyes", but I still need to use reading glasses for reading really fine print.

  3.) My left foot is a full 1/2 inch larger than my right foot!!! However, this does not make me a freak!!!

  4.) I put my left hand over my head when I drive under a bridge. This will keep me from getting crushed if the bridge collapses on top of me!!!

  5.) I said, "Morning Bruce." , to Bruce Willis on a movie set when a scene was filmed for Die Hard 2.

  6.) Cats or dogs?! Cats rule!!! Cats have it over dogs. Have you ever heard the expression, "Dumb dog!!!" ? There is a reason for that!!!

  7.) Cake or pie?! Well pie of course!!! I always have chocolate pie on my birthday!!

  8.) My favorite Sci Fi film of all time is Blade Runner. And it looks freakin awesome on Blu!!!!

  9.) My favorite band(s) of all time are Midnight Oil and Genesis.

  10.) I have saved the most shocking fact of all for last. I am a coffee addict!!! Most of you probably already know that. But here are just a couple of things you may not know. I go through about 1 pound of coffee a week just for espresso!! I average about another 1/2 pound to 3/4 pound of single origin coffees for my French press. I sometimes will buy my espresso blend from Peets Coffee over in Boulder,CO. But most of the time I order my espresso blends from 2 different roasters in Seattle and 1 roaster in Chicago. I could not imagine a world without coffee!!!

  And there you have it. That finishes this blog. Be sure to watch out for the shotgun carrying maniac, PJ24 as you leave.

  Don't forget to eat some turkey today and make it a great day!!!!

  #249 - I will Zip Kick you into next week!!!!! Bwwwahhh, bbbwwwahhh!!!

  "Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival. "

  C.S. Lewis

  Bionic Commando is awesome!!! Still enjoy the NES version the best, but man, the new one is kicking butt and taking names. So many cool features,(like the Zip Kick) upgradeable combat, collectibles, and insanely hard (for me anyway) just like the NES version!!! Still, one cool game and a must if you are a fan of the series.

  This arrived a couple of days ago and it is also kicking butt and I am loving it too!!!

  

  Great game play, characters, cool upgradeable powers, environments and just plan awesome!!! Sucker Punch has delivered one great game!! Should be a contender for Game of The Year.

  Also, if you own a Wii, this purchase is a no-brainer!!

  
  

  It is on my personal list for Game of the Year!!!

  

  Make it a great day!!!!

  Soon the guy in Red will arrive. Have you been good or bad?!
