Releases and Video Games

It appears that life is going to calm down for a bit. We reached our milestone at work. And now it’s moving forward, albeit a little bit more relaxed for now. Hopefully this will bring about a much more pleasant existence. Plus some much needed work life balance.

Other than work, I’ve been really wrapped up in the world of video games, recently. The Electronic Entertainment Expo (e3) is going on right now and I’m totally psyched about the upcoming game lineup for XBox 360. I’m also digging the DS and Wii lineup, which means, I’m going to be buying and playing a lot of video games over the next year. The only problem is that a lot of the games I want to play aren’t out now. Sigh, I just have to wait, and probably start saving, since these games are going to cost me a fortune.

I was talking with my buddy Milton about the whole video game thing. It appears that this generation isn’t going to be a complete waste like the last one. Unlike the PS2/Gamecube/Xbox generation, where I only bought an XBox because I work for MS and could get cheap games, I actually feel strongly about games I want to play. I watched the XBox E3 games montage off of XBox Live today and counted 10 games I knew I’d probably by. Even more remarkable was that only four of them were MS games. It’s crazy. And this isn’t even counting the fact that I really want to get a Wii, plus a bunch of games for the Nintendo DS.

Ok, enough nerdery for now. Man, I’m just pumped. Yeah, this is a pretty nerdy post.

Oh, I’m thinking of redoing my site again. I’m really considering dropping all the custom stuff and just picking up standard blogging package. As much fun as it was to develop this system, I’m beginning to think I’d like a more typical blog that I can update on a more regular basis. Basically I want to combine all of my random thoughts about junk into one page. Yeah, That’s probably a better plan than what I’m doing now.
