Congratulations, I hate you! :)

Just because I have other things to do and can't make it to a midnight launch for GTAIV must I really be punished for that? I go to bed around 11:30pm and can't sleep, but it's not because I'm thinking about how much I want to play GTAIV. I was quietly laying in bed thinking about PAX 2008 and a woman dressed as Wonder Woman randomly handing out rubber vaginas! Why you ask? I have no idea, but I was cracking myself up at the time. I thought about how much fun it would be to take a box of rubber vaginas and advertise for allgames by writing, "Allgames.com...It's better to be in than out". I would then take these rubbery vaginal pieces awkwardness and throw them at the unaware faces or people walking around the shindig.

I did eventually fall asleep; only to wake up a few hours later with the hunger of a fat kid who hasn't eaten anything consisting of carbs, sugars or fats. So I have to get up and get some cereal to quench this burning desire to eat like Oprah while depressed. After doing all that I find myself here, awake at 4:10 in the morning. I am wide awake and won't be getting sleep anytime soon. I do not have a copy of GTAIV, yet I see friends online at xbox.com "Playing GTA IV" and hope they all RROD (not really...well maybe a little). I hate you sleep. I hate you rubber vagina. I hate you fat kid hunger. I hate you Oprah. Most importantly I hate you agn because as of this writing you are playing GTAIV, "First Date - Attempts 1", and I am sadly here, writing this garbage and contemplating what I'm going to do until this afternoon. So yes everyone, I hate you!

GTAIV: The wait is almost over

I am more excited for this game than any game to ever come out before it! I will sadly have to pick it up on Tuesday because I will not be able to make it to the midnight launch (makes me a sad panda). I just wanted to make a post about the game that will consume my life and post some pics of my personal favorite GTA collector's items...my GTA3/VC Kubrick sets! They are awesome and I love them :D

GTAIV = Pie...I prefer cake, but since the cake is a lie I really don't want GTAIV to be cake...and it's a PS360 pie so go to hell all you bitch ass fanboys (I hate you)!

I love these sets...I just wish they made one for San Andreas...and GTAIV (Come on...you know we want them!)

I finally received my winnings from the Old Spice tournament and I was originally planning to purchase a Nintendo DS with the winnings, but my plans have changed. I started to think about the extra expenses that would come with a DS, basically just another system with more games to buy. As of right now I will likely use the card to purchase my PS3 version of GTAIV and some other crap. I am just happy (and surprised) that I received it so fast! :)

...I've also toyed around with the thought of picking up Guitar Hero 3 for the 360, but I'm not sure about that...

Half-Life 2 done...only took me a few years

Well I recently decided to pop The Orange Box into my 360 because I have owned it since it was released and never actually finished Half-Life 2. I mean the first game (not the episodes)...I haven't even finished Portal! Though now I can finally say, "Yes! I have beaten Half-Life 2", and I really don't know what took me so long. For one I'll say that the story and atmosphere are great, but it is obvious that this is a PC game first (I really wish my PC was working at times like this). The game does control adequately on the 360, but when you look at other shooters on the market it just feels a bit stiff.

My end time was just under 10hrs, but it was a very enjoyable 10hrs and I have to say near the end you are given a weapon that makes you feel like one hell of a badass. It was a great ride while it lasted (too bad it was so short)! My one complaint is that I really like the character of Alex and just wish she had more screen time (I've been told you see a lot more of her in EP1). Also I just want to say that my friend (let's call him EltonJ) said that he didn't like Alex and thought she was unattractive. I think that is ridiculous because for one she is a real character and on a physical aspect I think she's much more attractive than most female characters! Not to mention she is just frickin' awesome! Though I must say I didn't like the fact that she kept on leaving me, it left me some serious abandonment issues. You fail EltonJ, you fail big time! Why don't you just ride your rocket to the moon rocketman (and don't forget your shades).

I will hopefully post a review soon for HL2 and I am currently playing through EP1. I hope to get reviews of HL2 and both episodes in the coming week (before GTAIV arrives).

Sausage Out!

GTAIV game-play footage this Sunday

*EDIT* Why wait until Sunday when you can get crap loads of leaked footage on Youtube (which are taken down after an hour and then reposted etc), or just watch a marathon of game-play footage on JTV (YOU SUCK JTV!) ...you bunch of impatient bastards!

For all of you who have been dying to see some actual game-play footage of GTAIV; you need only wait until this upcoming Sunday! G4 will have an exclusive sneak peak of the game at 12PM ET and it will be shown commercial free. I'm sure plenty of people will be excited to hear about this, but I am not happy at all. I really wish that everyone could have just gone into the game with fresh eyes and without ever seeing actual game-play. A gift for impatient gamers everywhere!

I personally will not be watching this and I find people who need to watch it crazy. The fact that the game will be coming out a few days after the footage is released makes me wonder why anyone would even care (really, Really!?). I'm sure all the people who watch G4 regularly will go bananas over this (yea, I said bananas), but I think people who are really looking forward to this game won't care at all. At least I hope I'm not the only one choosing not to watch this...

You can find the official info on G4's website here
