Silly Video Game Stuff

6

Ryan posted this recently and this is the first chance I’ve had to do it… and I’m also trying to learn the whole link/truncate thing.  If it didn’t work, I suck and I’m sorry.

Top Ten Video Games:
10. Tetris (NES)… Old skool rules!
9. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (PS2)… guns, strippers, & 80s tunes. Yes!
8. Warcraft II (PC)… Back when we’d still just connect PC to PC via a modem. Dial-up Internet was still an hourly charge!
7. Resident Evil 2 (PSX)… First game to truly scare me. Damn those dogs!
6. The Legend of Zelda (NES)… Still the most fun of them all.
5. Tekken Tag (PS2)… You can never get bored beating the crap out of friends on a game.
4. Final Fantasy IX (PSX)… A truly epic video game with a well developed story.
3. Sam & Max Hit The Road (PC)… You have to play it to understand.
2. Final Fantasy X (PS2)… The pinnacle of the FF series. Perfect balance of fantasy and scifi.
1. Ms. Pac-Man (Arcade)… 20 years later, everyone still plays this. It never gets old.

LIFE UPDATES

2

And here are all the other obligatory updates:

1. SCHOOL… I have a term paper due today. It’s half done. I’m skipping work to get it done. I damn well better get an “A” on it.

2. WORK… is doing okay. We survived the war and the cutbacks. If I keep skipping work like this, though, I might get cut back! I did get another offer in town, though, that seems appealing. I just like the laziness factor I have with my current Dell Computers job. Easy. Nice chair. Play online games. Tough life.

3. GAMES… Finished .hack//INFECTION. Still have to finish Kingdom Hearts, Vice City, and now Xenosaga (see last entry.)

4. GIRLFRIEND… Yep. She’s still there. Still a hottie. Still can’t cook, though.

5. PETS… Turtle (Elwood) is fine. Bird (Delaney) is hyper. Hamster (Spongebob… though I call him “Jabba”) is sleeping. Gerbals (Jay & Silent Bob) are strange. Fish (Fish) is swimming at the bottom of the bowl. I think Shannon fed him too much this morning.

6. HOME… is clean! Laundry and all! Whoohoo!

7. FAMILY… sister still in the army up in Georgia. Nephew still with my mom in South Florida. Mom is… older. (She had a birthday.) Dad haven’t heard from in a while. He becomes a hermit during tax time in the year.

’nuff of that!

.hack: INFECTION

Okay… this should accomplish two things.  FIRST, I get to say that I’ve broken one of my own rules and bought a new PS2 game.

(The rule, for the record, is to not buy a new game until the previous one/ones are all solved. I still have to complete Vice City & Kingdom Hearts on PS2… same rule applies for XBox.)

Shannon and I bought

Watched the trippy 45 minute OVA that came with it.   I already have part 2 of it downloaded… will watch it later.   We’re still watching the first series (SIGN), too.  Up to episode 9.   It all seems pretty in depth, but I’m getting the feeling that the writers are try TOO hard to make point and “stylize” everything.  We shall see.

SECOND, I learned how to insert pictures on this thing.  Go me.
