So I've been playing World of Warcraft for not quite a week now.

Died HORRIBLY a bunch of times.

Some cool moments though.

Like earlier tonight:
Killed a Sunscale Scytheclaw (A raptor-type thing). Needed to heal, so's I sat down. You heal faster that way, especially when you eat some food. That's when an Ornery Plainstrider (Ostrich.. bird.. thing). Battle wasn't really going in my favor. I'm about to die, so I guzzle a healing potion, which heals me JUST ENOUGH to be able to take it's next hit (Had about a pixel of health at this time), so I perform a War Stomp (radial 2 second stun), then cracked it's skull open with a Heroic Strike.

Good Times.


Then got myself killed a few minutes later by a goblin and his friends.


Stupid Goblins.

Helped wash the vehicles today.

Turns out my car is actually red!

Who knew?


Will probably pick up World of Warcraft tonight.

I know its' awesome and all, but the whole monthly fee is kinda scary. Mostly 'cause I got no way to pay for it, but I think they put out game cards or something. Will have to look into it.

Been on vacation since the 6th.

Other than hang out with Dan and Jared all week, I ain't done shit.

Unless you count burning a couple of CD's cause one got all messed up.

So I found this via EGM:

Halo Zero, a side scrolling shooter like Contra.

But, you know. Halo instead of Contra.

So I finally tracked down a copy of Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance for the Game Boy Advance (GBA).

Is quite good. Need to change the batteries soon, though.

Also it ocurred to me that I ought to break out my Sega Game Gear for a while.

It should still work, even though half the games I have I don't really play...

So I pulled out the GG earlier.

HOLY SHIT that thing is enormous!!

Its not that heavy, but it's also not full of batteries. The thing runs on 6 (SIX) AA batteries. Thank goodness I have the AC adaptor...!

So I did all that reinstalling crap.

Didn't get 2 weapon unlocks, however.

Got FOUR!

Mwa ha ha ha!!

Updated roster:

Gonna try something with the Special Forces expansion pack,

Gonna uninstall that, and BF2, then reinstall BF2, then Special Forces, THEN patch'em.

Pain in the ass?

Yes.

Worth the two free weapon unlocks if it works?

Also yes.

So I go to EB Games today, and I ask the guy working there if he knows when Okami is gonna be released.

Been looking forward to it since I reserved it in October. Probably one of the last PS2 games that I'll be looking forward to, other than Black, which comes out in a week.

So I ask the dude, and he types some stuff into the computer.

"June." He tells me.

JUNE.

It was SUPPOSED to be March!!!

So now I gotta about 4 more months on top of the 5 months since October!!

PLUS the 6 or so months from E3 '05 when I first heard about Okami.


That's something like a year I've been waiting for this game.


They're pulling a Gran Turismo, I swear!!

Joe BOLO set this up. A BF2 Leaderboard!

I'm [EK]Alpha_Wolf.

Awesome!

There's something strangely awesome about tearing around town on a motorcycle while busting out stoppies and wheelies.

Into oncoming traffic.

While listening to opera music (or whatever type of music is playing on Double Cleff FM).

Yes.
