Fall Update
Long time no see Gamespot. Hope everyone is having a pretty good fall. Things have been decent here - I just haven't had the motivation to post or otherwise spend much time on the site... you can partially thank Lost and Borderlands for that. For all those who commented and said that Lost was great in my last blog, you were definitely right. Sure, Jericho was good, but Lost is better. I watched all five seasons of the show in less than a couple of weeks thanks to the wonders of Netflix. Needless to say, I can't wait until the show wraps up with season six in 2010.

Other than Lost, I picked up Borderlands on the 20th, and finished it today, the 25th. It was a decent game, but nothing more than filler until Modern Warfare 2 comes out. The gameplay was good, and so was the game's hybrid graphics styIe. The paper-thin story and terrible ending, however, were not. I'll be writing a review soon (hopefully), but my recommendation is to rent this one first.
School is still going okay - a little less busy, too. I finally sent in all my college applications and got accepted to the college of my choice - Michigan State University. I'll also (presumably) be attending the Honors College to study pre-med. And with that said, Lost fans, I'll leave you with this.- Posted Oct 25, 2009 6:12 pm PT

Netflix + Jericho
Over the weekend, I decided to take up an offer for a free trial of Netflix. I usually don't buy into those kind of "free trial" things, but I've heard a lot of good things about the service, and being able to stream thousands of movies and shows right to my Xbox 360 for only $9 a month is pretty appealing. Well, it's been four days, and I'm extremely happy with Netflix so far. The picture quality is great, and they recommended me a great show to watch - Jericho.

I heard of Jericho a couple years back, but never had the time nor interest to check it out. Over the weekend, I was able to stream all two seasons of the show, which, to put it quickly, might be one of my all-time favorites. The cast is great (including Skeet Ulrich, seen in the above picture), and so is the show's storyline. I'd highly recommend you guys check it out. Other than Jericho, I just started watching season one of Lost. A bunch of my friends are fans of the show, and said I need to watch it. Let's hope it's as good as they led me to believe!
As many of you have seen, my activity on the site has been a bit... lacking, lately. Being my senior year, school has been extremely busy - more-so than I expected. Plus, I just can't seem to find an active place to post right now. Needless to say, I'm still here, and don't plan on leaving anytime soon.- Posted Sep 29, 2009 3:41 pm PT

Shift + Update
For the first time in about seven months, I went out and bought a game at full retail. The game? Shift, of course. I've been a Need for Speed fan since Hot Pursuit, and have tended to like recent games in the series contrary to reviewer opinion - it seems that Shift will be no different. I've been playing it for a couple days now, and the game's unique cockpit view really makes Shift stand out from other racers. Between the great sound, the crashes, and the sense of speed, it actually feels like you're racing a car at 150+ miles per hour.

The part that irks me is that Gamespot's review completely omits the cockpit view. Not even a mention. I talked to Justin Calvert via email, and he said it wasn't mentioned because he "preferred the third person view." I don't necessarily agree with his decision, but there's not much I can do. I guess I'm just going to have to write a review of my own... eventually. This is one of the first Gamespot reviews I've ever really had a problem with.
Anyway, I have homework for all of you. Go vote for Snake, and also, visit my UCB. I'm doing an update of the Top 75 Posters list tonight, so check that out later. That should wrap things up - take care everyone.- Posted Sep 19, 2009 2:24 pm PT
