Hehe… Been some time since I last posted here. Well I’ve had about a week of from work now, the semester is about to start for all the regular workers. That’s also why I haven’t been online as much and I won’t be online as much either for the upcoming weeks. Thanks to regular workers starting their semester tomorrow, I’ll be having a place of my own to clean. Where I’ll be the boss. So I’m glad they trust me with this and its a great way to show initiative and how good I work. So I’m hoping it will lead to me getting hired by them. Since I’ve heard rumors that they are going to hire four people, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I’m one of them.
I Wednesday me and Elden took a trip toMalmö. It was fun to get away from home a bit and just, go to a place I’ve not visited often.
Even it its not that far away from where I live.
I was trying to find the store “Grey’s American Eats” since I wanted to try some American soda and Candy. But damn it was expensive!
I got Boylan Cane Cola and Boylan Orange Cream. None of them tasted very good IMO, it wasn’t liked by none in my family actually. I also bought a pack of Milk Duds(yum!) and a Babe Ruth(haven’t tried it yet).
And thanks to Elden I got Saints Row 2. A very fun and neat game, with a whole lot of glitches. A shame they never patched the game to fix them. And after that we took the train back to Kristianstad, where I decided to pay my local Elgiganten a visit. I had preordered Transformers: War for Cybertron from them and was able to pick it up, one day before its release! Thank goodness I had a little cash left on my “presentkort” from Elgiganten or I wouldn’t have been able to get this. And that would have made me very sad, since this game rocks! Best Transformers game ever, not that it had any good competition for that title…
All in all it was a great and fun day, hope to do it again!
MICROSOFT First out of the big three in this years E3 (perhaps they are first every year, I don’t know…). Either way, they where first out and they didn’t really have anything to show that made me excited.
They had a whole bunch of games and stuff to show that had to do with Kinect. Ya, know.
The camera “controller” that was called Natal before. But as I said there where really nothing that caught my interest a bit of a shame, well at least I’m really liking their redesign of the Xbox 360. It cools very cool and if it works better than the current consoles than that’s great!
I also thought Microsoft’s show was pretty boring, it felt very “stiff” somehow. Maybe its just an impression I got. Oh, yeah. I almost forgot the video that was shown of Metal Gear Solid: Rising was damn cool!

NINTENDO Well this was a pretty big surprise for me personally. I never thought I would be interested in something Nintendo would show. Don’t get my wrong I love Nintendo and I always will, but I haven’t really been interested in the stuff they’ve done for the past years. Don’t know why, but that’s how it was.
Anyway, I thought Nintendo had the best show. They showed a bunch of new stuff, like the new Legend of Zelda game. But the biggest and best thing on the show (IMO) was the unveiling of Nintendo 3DS, the successor to the DS. They showed a new Kid Icarus game that looks great! And they seem to be announcing things for the console the whole time. You’ll have to find out what for yourselves. I’m greatly interested in the 3DS.

SONY
The show I before hand was hoping to get the best things out of. Well, turns out I was dead wrong. There where almost nothing that interested me here. They talked a hell a lot about MOVE and didn’t really show anything new. Well… Portal 2 and Twisted Metal. But I care for neither, so I guess Heroes on The Move was the game that interested me the most together with The Sly Collection. Heroes on The Move seems to be an action/adventure game that finally puts some of Sony’s “mascots” in the same game, Jak, Ratchet and Sly all together with there sidekicks. And The Sly Collection is the three Sly Cooper games remastered for the PS3 in HD and 3D. I just feel disappointed I was hoping for a bit more.
The part where Kevin Butler enters, where pretty good.
So thanks for reading my thoughts of this years E3 with the big three. What did you think about it? What did you love and hate?
Ah, finally I have some vacation time! I’m free from work this whole coming week.
Looking forward to it, its going to be so nice not having to clean other peoples shit for a whole week. Seriously some people are so disgusting, ugh! Well its good to get some time of, not sure when I next will have the chance. We’ve moved to a new building too and its so cramped in there. So I’m glad I don’t have to deal with all that right now, but I have a feeling being so close to people will not be good for me. Since I have “torg skräck” I really can’t remember a English word for it. Well anyway… I’m going to enjoy this week.
I’m not going into detail, but I’ve been without my TV for about two weeks now and hopefully on Tuesday I’ll get it back. So I haven’t been able to play so much as I’ve wanted. But the first thing I’ll do on Tuesday is to continue where I left of in 3D Dot Game Heroes.
I have also gotten some inspiration back, so I might try to write something of my fantasy story. At least I hope I can get something written, usually as soon as I start I seem to loose interest in it. Its pretty damn annoying, since I want to write! I really want to develop the character “Yazuka” more. And I hope one day to do just that.
I want to update and write more important stuff here too. But it just seems like I can’t get the time or the energy to do so. Work it taking up much of both those things. So I’m hoping I can post something a bit better in the future or at least more interesting. I’m thinking of doing a couple anime-reviews of shows I’ve seen and then perhaps a few reviews on games. Not to sure on them yet, but we’ll see.
and before I end this post, I just kindly would like to ask. Where the fuck is everyone? Seriously, where are you? My msn has more or less been empty for days. I miss you guys, get on there and talk to me!!
And I have reactivated my CAPTCHA, since I’ve been drowning in spam the past week. Its so not worth having it off. If you have poroblems posting with the CAPTCHA here get in touch with me on Facebook or Twitter (preferably Twitter) and I’ll fix something for ya.
I have finally updated the design on my site! I’m really happy with this new one, I think it looks so much better now. Just made some tweaks here and there, to suit me a bit better.
Its a much nicer and sleeker theme and its got everything I need. As I said I’m really happy with this, now I’m hoping to change other stuff later. But we’ll see, what that’ll be.
There has been something big that has happened, but since its just crap I don’t want to talk about it. And you who do know it, please don’t write about it. I just want to forget all about it.
Again, I’m sick. My damn fever comes back like a boomerang, well hopefully my penicillin will take care of it once and for all. But yeah, I’m feeling a bit better now.
Guess I’ll stay home rest of the week just to be sure its gone. I was only going to work tomorrow also, I had the day of on Friday and on Thursday we have a holiday, day here in Sweden. Hopefully I won’t have to spend me free day sick.
On Friday is also another big day for me! Finally I’ll get my hands on 3D Dot Game Heroes! How I have awaited that game! Hope it will make me relive those older happier gaming days and give me the same or at least soem amount of happiness I get from The Legend Zelda: A Link To The Past. It all remains to be seen but I think it will be good.
So I’ll be back on Friday and will hopefully leave my impressions of the game! See you then!
If you haven’t seen this trailer for 3D Dot Game Heroes do it now! I can’t help but love it, its full of so much charm/win. God, I can’t wait to get my hands on this game!!
Its been some time since I wrote, nearly a week since last post. I’ve been both sick and busy, so I haven’t had the energy to write anything. I haven’t touched Final Fantasy XIII for some time either. I’ve lost some of my interest in the game. Why? I might go into that more in later posts.
And while I’m on the subject. I’m extremely thankful for my friend Robert SC. Who is going to let me borrow his God of War III. Really looking forward to play that and I do need to play something else that isn’t FFXIII right now. So I’m hoping I’ll be able to play it next week. So looking forward to kick ass with Kratos again!
Well anyway I’ve been working for three days now and it feels pretty okay, even if I hate going up so early. But its not all that bad. At least the people there are friendly and I get to be out much. And travel around to a bunch of different places. But we’ll see how I feel about it when I’ve worked a full week or even two weeks.
Well while I was sick I watch a whole load of anime and finished of a few series, I’m going to write about them later in an upcoming post. I guess this is all for now, I’ll post more when I get the time. And I’m not going to be online as much as before, which is something I think some of you’ve already understood. So less time on MSN, Loading and all other stuff that I’m usually on.
Not a big fan of FPS, the only one I’ve ever liked was Golden Eye for the Nintendo 64. But there was something that really drew me to Bioshock. Not sure what, but there was something. It could have been when I saw my father try it out and liking it and speaking good about it. So it might have stuck to me.
Either way, I started playing this game on Monday when everyone else had their PS3 jammed by a bug, dubbed “The ApocalyPS3“.
Due to an unfortunate accident you wind up in the middle of the ocean and you stumble upon the entrance to the hidden underwater city Rapture.
Where all hell has broken loose it seems. You soon agree to help Atlas, a fellow who’s family is trapped in a submarine. But things go wrong and you soon find yourself on a quest for revenge. The story of the game is pretty good actually and the voice actors in the game do a really great job.
The environment is creepy at sometimes and some of the characters are creepy too. Like the Little Sisters and Big Daddy’s. (See picture below).
I don’t think I have any complaints with the game, but I wish there was more variety to the enemies. But then again they work really well with the game.
I’m not sure this will make me love FPS, but it was a good game.
And it was really good and refreshing to play something other than just RPGs. I do love ‘em, but I’ve missed so many other good none-RPGs.
I really want to give the second game a try. So if I can get my hands on that somehow I’ll definitely play that one. After this I think I’m taking a break from playing and wait for Final Fantasy XIII. But then again I’m very tempted to start playing Star Ocean The Last Hope International. Not sure what to do really…
So it seems that people who had their Playstation 3 consoles affected by this time-leap bug, can now rest easy. Your machines should have fixed themselves to the correct time now. So the “ApocalyPS3″ crisis is over. So now everyone should be able to play normally again. Glad that it fixed itself and wasn’t a more serious problem.
Too those who had this problem, are your PS3 working as they should again?
I’m also trying out Bioshock for the first time in my life. I’ve been somewhat interested in it for a while and finally had a chance to try it. And since I don’t like playing in front of the computer, I’m playing the PS3 version. I just finished the first chapter and so far it seems pretty interesting. This is not really my kind of game, but I really want to give it a shot. I’ve enjoyed the game so far. The atmosphere of the game is pretty nice so far, I’m looking forward to see how the story unfolds.
I Wednesday me and Elden took a trip to Malmö.
