  Foot of the mountain.

  well i've been lurking round here alot less lately, but i've finally worked my way up to level 20, metal slime, which i've heard is the big one round here. So i'll probably be lazily woking my way up the percentage chart from now on and looking to make my posts more immune to moderation.

  also if you've read my last blog, which was a while ago now, you'll now i had just bought an xbox 360 with GTA IV. well, my collection is still just as small, however GTA is looking way up. In short i like it alot, and all apects are usually fantastic bar some little annoyance, and the small technical glitches are starting to get on my nerves. but saying that it's probably worth a 9-9.5 in my book. Anyway, i'll be expanding my collection soon hopefully, and my fingers are crossed beyond the point of agony that we will be getting a great new tv set up really soon.

  also you may have noticed i've sorted out xbox live, however i havn't got gold just yet. but add me if you want and if i recognise you i should gladly accept , Antares 007 is my gamertag thing.

  p.s - who ever's got the "rolled over" achievement in GTA IV, i need help. desperately. its just not happening for me!

  see you round people.

  The next generation is now!

  Well after months of yearning and research last night i finally got a newconsole. xbox 360. from GAME for $499 with GTA IV. I was kinda worried cause i was checking the sticker for the signs of the falcon motherboard and the sticker says 203w but the guy in the store assured me it has everything to do with the transistor and that is 175w so all is well. To Sal_92, these consoles are heavy aye? i'm not sure how much the ps3 weighs but the xbox is certainly heavy. i really should have wieghed it but i cant be bothered.

  anyway i got home and opened it all up, found out i got a wired headset instead of media remoe (weird), i'll probably call microsoft about it on sunday when i'm not busy. i played a couple minutes of grand theft auto and i guess 3 or 4 main things struck me in that amount of time.

  1. the graphics are really ugly compared to other games. but that is GTA's style i suppose.

  2. the car controls are really strange, you have to move the camera aswell which is different for me, and everything about driving is obviously made so you have no choice but to break the law. which i dont really like as i prefer the movie-like incognito approach myself.

  3. i thought it wouldnt be my kind of game originally, but then it looked so good and realistic that it probably wouldnt bother me and be kinda cool, but one thing that bothers me is that the language is really bad and there is barley a sentance spoken not including B****" "F***" and some derogatry term for the working girls.i'm normally fine with that stuff but i can't imagine at least 30 straight hours of it. it's pretty hard core, makes me wonder if thats what we sound like to other people when we swear and everything.

  4. i hope this is going to pick up sometime soon.

  
  anyway. i dont have xbox live at the moment but when i do i'll be trading gamertags and stuff. and in the mean time i'm just trying to figure everything out. i'll also need some more money to buy a phone, then raise money for more games, after that everything should be sorted. and hopefully we'll be getting a 1080p sharp aqauos and awesome home theatre on a relativly small budget in that time aswell, cause at the moment i'm playing on a SD 3:4 CRT screen, which is definatley not cool.

  oh well if i think of anything else there'll be another blog to come, probably a way more exciting one.

  bye for now
