Playstation 3!

I did it! I purchased a Playstation 3 on Black Friday through Amazon! It should be here on Tuesday along with inFamous and Killzone 2. I'm not interested in the latter game, so it will likely end up being sold back through GameStop. The in-store credit I get will go toward the purchase of something else; I only need to decide what! Muramasa? Batman: Arkham Asylum? Dragon Age Origins? I'll have to figure it out when it happens, but inFamous should keep me entertained for a while. Still, I have those grad school applications hanging over my head, so I can't get too carried away yet, but soon I'll get this blog into full gear (after a year!). Pretty soon I'll write up reviews for the only "new" games I've played this year: Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride, and Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon. As well as an updated list of games I'm looking forward to playing.

I've noticed games are more expensive for the PS3 (actually, I think I knew, but forgot until I bought one), so I will have to make my game purchases more selective. Perhaps it is time to subscribe to GameFly?

I Failed, but have Returned!

I haven't updated in almost 10 months! I fail miserably yet again. However, I must cite the excuse of my honor's thesis consuming my time all Spring and not playing anything particularly interesting over the summer, but there are tons of new games for me to check out and write about when the time comes. I did manage to play both Dragon Quest V, and Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon earlier this year and will have reviews forthcoming...hopefully soon. I say this because I'm still not quite out of the woods. I spent the last month and a half studying for the GRE and will probably spend a lot of time over the next month getting grad school applications together. As soon as that is finished I'll finally purchase a Playstation 3, as well as get back into games. But I'll still try to find some time to, at long last, get this blog going.
