As I said, it's been a long time. So, what have I been up to? Lots of things. Life is still fail, with the homelessness and all that good stuff. I've been busy with lots of other things, too. Gaming, classes, work... yeah. Lots of fun stuff,
So, let's see... where to start on the gaming end of things? Ah! I know! I'll start by saying I have gotten a brand new PSP. While my original one is still in my possession, I bought a new one a few months ago. No, I didn't get a PSP Go!. There is a simple explanation for that, too. I don't like buying games that I don't have a hard copy of. I like physical things, not things that are just bits of data that can be lost in the blink of an eye. Having a physical copy makes me feel like I actually bought it and own it, as I can hold it in my hands. The virtual copy isn't even technically yours, as you just have the licensing to have it on your machines. You don't own it, you are just borrowing it while paying tons of money for it. You see my point? I hope so. Go with the physical copy of things, it's safer. It doesn't hurt to have a virtual copy, as well, as there are things like fires and explosions and other things that may ruin your hard copy, so think of it as a failsafe, I suppose.
Anyways, enough rambling. PSP. Right. So I got a few games for it, including the games I already own. The new games are: Dissida: Final Fantasy, Rock Band: Unplugged, and a few others you can see on my backlog. To start: No matter what the reviews say about Dissidia, I will tell you it is worth it. It is amazing to play and while the fighting end may not be the most technical and advanced fighting system in the world, it has it's depth. I won't go into a whole review, as I really shouldn't have to, since you should already own it. Grr. Rock Band: Unplugged is quite amazing, to say the least. I haven't had the chance to buy an actual console Rock Band game, but as soon as the homelessness and things get fixed, I will have one. Most likely for the PS2, as I still can't justify buying a PS3 and I won't ever touch an xbox 360, since it's a piece of crap built to fail (Red Ring of Death has been around for how many years now? Still haven't fixed it completely? Built. To. Break. Do. Not. Want.). So, yeah. And as I will get a Wii eventually... it doesn't have much DLC for games, which is stupid on Nintendo's point. I mean Brawl would be a bigger gold mine than it already is... but I'm going off topic again.
Come to think of it, what was my topic?
Right. Rock band. Yeah. Kickass. But enough about that.
For my DS, I've gotten a few new games, been playing a few, got my game on, and a bunch of good stuff. Been playing a lot of Jump! Ultimate Stars locally, getting my duel on with World Championship 2009, and been beating some random games here and there.
Anyways, next post will be a little wrap up of the entire year's accomplishments and give aa little more information on the games I have been working on, including games for a marathon of awesomeness.
If you can't wait, then just check my backlog, which I am sure is linked somewhere on this blog, so enjoy.
See ya next time. =D

Nintendo DSi
Hm. It's been a while. I know. It's time for a small update about my life and how my gaming is going. To start off, if you see the title, you have probably already guessed at my first annoucement. I have a Nintendo DSi. There are many reasons why I decided to get one, but I will tell you that it is worth it.
Before I had the DS 'Phat" or the original. I've had it since it basically came out, and I figured it was time for an upgrade. Using my Financial aid money from college(It was extra, bite me), I got the DSi, The World Ends With You, Chrono Trigger and Digimon World Championship. With those games, I have beaten TWEWY and I haven't even opened the other two yet(Also meaning they have not been added to my backlog).
The DSi has some pretty neat features, like recording your voice(Though only 10 seconds at a time), taking pictures with it's two cameras, which is pretty nice, and also by having the standard Pictochat and DS Download play like the other DS's. The major difference is the DSi Shop. After performing an system update to access the shop, you are given 1000 DS1 points for free, just for purchasing the system.
The Shop only has one free item, which is the DSi Browser, which actually uses the touch screen nicely. The other options in the shop are to buy 200 point games(Mostly little addons for other games or they are super small games), 500 point games(Which has things like Dr. Mario Express, Warioware Snapped, and some other enjoyable titles) and then there is the 800+ section, where there are only two games avaliable as of now(Both of which I didn't really care for).
With my 1000 free points, I got Dr. Mario Express and a collection with 5 card games. Both of which are enjoyable and very quick to pick up and play, which is nice.
As for my housing situation and my personal problems, well, my life is still in the crapper. Being homeless sucks. I don't recommend it. >_>
Living in homeless shelters with other families is annoying and pretty stupid if you ask me, but that's how it is.
I figured I'd put up a small update just to let you guys know I'm still around and okay. Though, none of you read this anyways, but yeah.
Peace out for now, guys. Gotta finish up finals for my classes. D=

Long break!
It isn't really a break... but I won't be around for a while. I'm gonna be homeless, so I won't update much. Sucks, I know. That little donate button on the side could help, though. >_> Just a heads up. Anyways. Peace. I'll update every now and then, for the one or two people that read this.
