Back from Holiday

Back from my holiday in Spain, darn it was hot. So I just sat in the pool most of the time. I also bought a 30gb video iPod to take so I didn't get bored on the plane ect. It's a great piece of kit, stores a shitload of stuff. While we were in Spain we drove to a place called Ronda, way up in the mountains, a two and a half hour drive though some really amazing valleys and such when we got there we found the town was built on two platues with an amazing stone arch bridge joining them, I'll post pics later.

When I got back I found I had been named as as EDGE UK ELITE :D so now I have to train extra hard on Gears to make sure I earn that title. Kinda of a problem right now cause I just got Shadowrun, Counter-Strike on Magic Mushrooms and speed. I love it. I'll be writing a review soon on it.

And school sucks, GCSEs are here, I did one this week and I have two or three in the next few weeks.

Other games I'm playing are Gears and EVE:Online, I downloaded EVE and played a trail account for two weeks and really enjoyed so I've bought a full account and I'm really enjoying it.

Well thats about it for the moment.

Oh and PS: Have a great holiday Nemphtis

Ouch

Managed to overstretch my tendon in my foot last saturday, haven't been able to walk for 4 days :D
However thats given me time to just surf the web, play online with the clan and spend wayyy too much money :) I've been watching some weird al videos, love the guys music, he's really funny. Some new entrants into EDGE since the last post, Hay Zeeb, Jamie and Dark Sage have all joined the ranks of the mad. And Nemphits and Darfuria, our resident codeing god, have added another awsome new feature to EDGE's site our very own review section. It's really cool and well layed out and thanks guys for spending the time on it. I'll be writing some reviews for it very soon hopefully.

Another thing they've been working on is an apparantly huge mystery project that is reported to be rolling out sometime next week, not sure what it is but juding from their previous work I'm super hyped :D

I've also downloaded some more anime, specificly Samurai Champloo. A really good and really funny series if your into action comedy and anime, or any of the 3 check it out.

Game wise I've orderd GRAW 2 , that should be coming soon, two weeks time I have a 512mb memory card for my 360 on it's way, then the week after I've got command and conquer 3 coming to me. In may I've got Shadowrun, Forza 2 and Mass Effect all on preorder. These next few months are going to be awsome. Till the next time.

Normal stuff

Not much has happened since my last post, EDGE has had new members and lost one, I've blasted Battlestations: Midway apart and completed it's singleplayer aspects. Ummm I got the new wireless 360 reciver for my PC, works really well. I was enjoying Halo:CE on PC with my wireless controller. Also this month has been awful for 360s everyone but me and Reckless has had their 360 break down this month. Touch wood for us both :D I also got Oblivion back and I downloaded all the new plug-ins really enjoying it.I'm on Half-term break so thats cool and I'm waiting for Crackdown, hopefully I'll get that tomorrow.

My WoW sub ran out so I need to buy a new card and I'm also considirn getting Final Fantasy XI: Online so I can play with Nemp and Utera.

Life, Anime and Games

It's been too long since an update, well to be honest i totally forgot about LJ.Well I'l start back in November, EDGE was shaken after 4 or 5 members left to join up with Allan and created Wargasm, MidgetMe tried to coerce me into leaving but i joined EDGE to see it all the way though.That was the only huge thing in November other than this game that you may of heard of. Gears of War! Awsome game, me and Deomex played it though on Hardcore co-op the day I got it, brillant game.

December was of course Christmas wich could have been more cheerful but with recent family tramua it wasn't really going to be. Got some cool stuff most notebly a Zboard.

January was my birthday on the 12th, and a huge month for EDGE. Loads of new members and at least 10 matches. Many of those we won! Nemp unfortunaly had the bad luck for 360 to bust and so did Deomex a week later. For my birthday Deomex and two other freinds came round my house and we set up a four way Halo2 LAN party with loads of pizza unforunatly thats when his 360 bit the dust. Also a laod of new info on Halo 3 including of course a way of getting a confirmed entry into the Beta. I immediatly preorderd Crackdown. Also thanks to some awsome demo on XLM I have made the decision to purchase Battlestations:Midway.

Febuary so far is kinda suckish, on the 30th of january my glasses broke and since then I have had a Spillitng headache and have been seeing double. Though it has got out of school. that brings me to how I have gotten into Anime. On wednesday I went up to the Mall in Bristol to see if I could a new pair of glasses but while I was waiting I wanderd into Virgin Megastores and found Ghost in The Shell and the GitS:SAC wich I purcased as sevral people in EDGE are into it Iand wanted to see what all the fuss was about. One word: Brillant! A brillant film and the four episioded of the SAC were wicked!Good plot and what I had asumed to be a babyish style of artwork I know find most appealing. So thank you Nemp and others for peaking my intrest :D

Update

Well this will be a big one since last time but meh.

I'll start with he bad things.

1.School
2. My Nan who I was very fond of went in to hospital on tuesday becayse of a broken arm and she died on friday morning, what really upset my family is that she had just about foughrt off the cancer she had BUT that didn't kill her. The autopsy was inconclusive but they a issed a weird thing that said she had died but not what from, that allowed the furneral to take place on the Monday this week, the church was packed full of people. Then yesterday the news came that they had run cultre tests and found it was a "massive systemic infection" that killed her.

Ok some positve things,
1. Edge won a match! WOOT! Ok so it was a freindly but ohwell.
2. I preorderd Gears of War Colleters addition!
3. I have started a Ciso networking course and instead of it costing £1000 I get it free
4.I got Battlefield 2142!
5.I am now lvl 38 on WoW!
6. My gamerscore is now 6878 after I played though King Kong
