This is a post full of derps and more derps.
Derp is a derpidity derp term of derpy proportions.
Derp was developed by derpitists in derpville.
They discovered derp by derping a derp by a herp. The herp eventually turned into a derp.
This was a grand invention and innovation for the derppeople of derp ville.
There was much derp and greatness for the derp!
The derp helped solve many different problems that people are dealing with derpiness.
The derpy mayor of derpiville decided to call this the derpoliday of derpicious proportions.
Crowds rang out in praise of derpoliday and the derping celebration was derping epic derp derp !
The derpiness spread through out the land and the rejoicing of derp spread around the world and the world became more and more filled with derp!
The rejoicing was derpiness if derpy proportions.
People became more and more fond of the derp and the derpiness reach derpepic proportions upon proportions upon proportions.
The townsfolk of derpville became more and more popular.
Tons and tons of news reporters came from all around to derpville to film about derp and interview the derpville towns people of derpville.
The wealth and power of being the derpiest people started going to the heads of the derpy people of derpville.
The derpness started to slow down and derpville started to become more and unpopular of people.
Finally derpville started crumbling around its self and derpville fell off the map due to the lack of derp.
People still walk by derpville to this day and wonder what happend to the derp.
They say derp derp in shadowed corners from now on.

Possible hope....
Well I fount out where the bed bugs kept coming from...my text books and notebook...yes they got into those.
I threw them all away and have soaked where the bag (Which was outside of my room) down with some insecticide I bought that killls the little bastards deader then a door nail.
My mother is bringing some powder down they used called DE, it is nothing but ground up shellfish which when they crawl through it ..it sticks to their skin and causes them to dry out and die.
Needless to say my room is going to become soaked in the stuff here soon and I have the OK of the housing department to use it.
I swear Ms.Sledd I am honestly at a loss of words at this point.
I am honestly thinking of going to seek the help of a counselors after this cause I think I have a touch of PTSD....I still wake up in the middle of the night in sweats thinking the guys are crawling on me.
God...my first term at college has been hell! and not even my classes !
Totaled I have thrown away due to these little fuckers....
One tv
Three back packs
D&D Books
A night stand
An I pod dock
An Office Chair
Some of my sanity
My Text Books
My note book
Some pens
Some more of my sanity
And 2000 dollars and counting at the moment.
I am at my wits end I really am...

Send the housing office an email, next day get told I am moving to a whole new room and I have to re do all my laundry and all my shit. I end up staying up for 37 hours trying to get moved, finish homework, and wash all my clothes...I also throw away a tv, my night stand, D&D books, and an ipod dock...
Move into new room and get situated everything is fine.
Last monday I wake up to an itch on my chin, thinking its nothing I scratch it, low and behold its a bed bug ON MY FACE....
I flip the fuck out and send housing another email...
They move me back out and into another room and charge me 1300 dollars......

Danny Cox RIP 2010
So last night I got the phone call that my grandpa has finally passed away....
To be honest him were never that close but, we had our own unique relationship so to speak. He was always good to me and never gave me hell.
He even cracked jokes about me getting busted for being high around my parents!
I miss him so much I really do....
I used to call him Papa
and I remember when I was a little kid he was outside in the garden and he was working near the garage and I was next to the water hose...I decided to soak him with the water hose and I SOAKED him....he was so angry it was scary....he took me and beat my ass nearly blood red...I couldnt sit down for 2 week !
Well I was spending the week there and the last day there he took me out for chicken littles at kfc and acted like nothing had happen....
I also remember he took me to see the lion king and after we watched he went and bought me the soundtrack and I played it so much I about broke it !
I still have that cd and I am listening to it right now....
Last time I went home he made me promise....to finish college and keep my shit straight....not fail, not get arrested, to do the best I can....it was one of the first few times hes ever truly talked with some determination in his voice to me...
Man its been a roller coaster of emotions and trying to keep everything together this semester. I so hope that next semester is calmer I really do lol.
Toodles..

Drinking is one of the worst ideas in the world
So this past weekend and the plausible weekend why I missed class today was a old friend of mine came to visit.
We went and bought about 60 dollars worth of booze and went on a massive trip around marietta and atlanta areas.
It was pretty epic.
We return to spsu and proceed to drink.
In total from what I am told I consumed
1 5th of Captain Morgans
Half a bottle of vodka
6 Guinness
2 or 3 White russians
2 Smirnoff ice
and 3 shots of wild turkey.
I am amazed I am still alive at this point in time.
Needless to say my tolerance has been shot to shit since I came to college due to homework etc. (i only drink when I have nothing to do the next day and time to recuperate)
Sunday/Today has been one of the most god awfullest hangovers I have ever experienced in my adult life.
The world hated me and I hated it right back.
I am also told that I attemped to do some pretty horrible things saturday night that I honestly do not remember at all. Saturday from 9 pm onward is one humongous blur and a half
I swear I am never ever getting that drunk again. It was horrible and horrifying. I guess with the bullshit that has happend over the past few weeks the stress finally got to me and well booze was the answer for a little bit.
I am still slightly hungover to this day from the massive drinking spree I had that night. I apologize for missing your class but Ms.Sledd, I never knew I could ever get that drunk to be honest.
And this is coming from the guy who once drank 36 beers in one night and was fine the next day. Damn I am getting old!
Friday, October 29, 2010
I use motor oil and broken glass as aftershave!
WOW!
I have survived so far, the world is finally coming back to a normal pace and I am pretty happy.
Got my classes picked for next quarter and I am really excited for it.
If the school can get my FA kicked in I am planning on staying over the summer and doing summer classes so I can finish up earlier.
My new room mate does not understand rap music at 3 am in the morning is not how I like to wake up other than that the new room is hawt.
I am currently in the process of hunting a job down with the fireceness equal to a lion jumping a gazelle!
I needs the monies badly cause I am a poor poor poor! college student.
Oh god running out of stuff to blab about on this thing....
OH YEAH I know by the time you read this November second will have passed and thank god. I hate politics I think they're the bane of this country.
My email is filled with so many VOTE or DO THIS FOR YOUR COUNTRY bull shit that I am going to choke.
I mean really if you spam my email with tons of emails to do something then I am most likely going to hit the select all and delete key !
Jesus H Christ!
So I am exactly twenty two words shy of being two hundred and fifty words on this blog post which is just dandy.
DID U C WHAT I DID THAR?!?!
Toodles!

The house of the...wait what was it again?
Aiechiwawa its almost the end of the month and I am glad to put this month behind me in way I cannot describe.
I think is some way that this was a semi test of my willpower and drive to do good in life and I guess I came out with flying colors?
Not everything has been tidy as I would like it SPSU some how lost my transcripts but, I have already made the phone calls to get them re sent to SPSU.
Also 30 minutes outside of SPSU this Saturday my car went ka put. Battery was deader then a door nail...thankfully that was all it was.
I finally am moved in completely to my new room and its fan friggin tastic.
It is completely re organized and pimped out to the best of my ability. Gota try and get a RA job so I can just live here for the summer cause well I love it down around this area.
Shit is always going on and everyone that I know back from my home town has moved onto other things. I guess its time for me to finally do the same.
In a weird retrospect I fount a person who is 32 living in the dorms and finishing his degree so I guess being 23 and in college is not so bad?
Well I think tonight I am going to go to bed quite early for the sheer fact I am exhausted.
I have nothing left to do for now just some tests to study for.
So in the end...

And it all falls down again....
So I just got the phone call that my Grandpa is falling fast...
I am about to start packing and make another wayward trip back to my hokey poke hometown and hopfully make it back in time before he goes..
I just have to sort these thoughts out before I do go because I am so abstract and disorganized at the moment.
I really ask myself is this a sign from God that I shouldn't be in college?
So far my first year at SPSU has been a complete total and utter nightmare.
From horrible math teacher, finanical aid starting all kinds of hell, shitty room mate, bed bugs, throwing away a lot of my personal property, and now a possible loss of one of my favorite family members.
Serioulsy, can a white man get a break?
Still through it all I have straight A's, near perfect attendance, and an set nerves formed of adamantium.
Its almost like a coy and cold touch to my conscience the amount of things that have gone on. I hate headaches and I hate disruption of the natural order of things. Most people would love this as an excuse to get out of class but, I hate it. I actually enjoy class for the most part and I want to learn and achieve new heights of intelligence and knowledge.
I am truly teetering on the edge right now, I have not yet lost faith in myself or my abilities.
I just really want a small break, a small miniscule amount of time to kick back and relax for a few moments. A reprieve if you will from this hurricane and turmoil that has become my life.
I guess you can take the good with the bad and look at this as a way of becoming stronger, its always darkest before dawn you know !
Is this god preparing me for the real world? Its almost a coy though, God, that is...because I usually do not believe in him but, is this some type of test from some higher power to see how far my nerves and will power can go?
I would really love to have an answer for all of this maelstrom of emotions, stress, xannax, and my sanity.
I am going to end this now so I can get ready to take one of the longest drives in my life..and I will end it with a proverb.....
"Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better to take things as they come along with patience and equanimity."
Yes this email made the blog....
This is Matthew King I am informing you I missed class today because I was a victim of bed bugs. I was moved out last week, moved back in this week and moved back in the span of 24 hours to a new mandatory room.
In the span of this time I have washed EVERYTHING I own twice.
I am currently going on 31 hours with no sleep.
I have a doctors excuse for your class, if you're wondering why I had to go there well....
To begin I had to move out, so I grabbed everything I could and left for home seeing as we didn't have class last week, washed EVERYTHING, then came to find out the bastards had infested my Mother's room from the last time I visited which was 2 weeks ago. We went on a rampant bed bug genocide.
We completely cleaned my house and sprayed inspecticide and washed EVERYTHING again....
Well I come back to SPSU Monday, get EVERYTHING moved back in at night and sit down in my office chair to watch some netflix at which point I feel something crawling on my arm....
The wonderful exterminators who took 5 days to treat my room did not treat my office chair, 150 dollar value. Fury ensued...
At this point I am furious. I proceed to email housing and I am awoken at 10 am by the Housing Director and the exterminators long story short I am being moved to a completely diffrent room..... and I have to wash everything again. I also recieve a phone call that my Grandpa is going into respirtory failure...so what a great day!
After class I begin moving stuff and notice my night stand/tv stand has a bug on it, I kill it and do a quick scout...its covered...I throw it away to...
I decide to start checking everything...
My tv had to go along with my collection of Dungeons And Dragons rule books (about 200-250 dollars lost on top of the office chair)
I finally get everything finished and by this point my nerves are shot...its 9 am and I still havent slept I inform housing of the new lost property and go see the nurse who informs me to go see a doctor for the bites and she has given me some "Happy Pills" and some other medications to treat the bites.
I am so sorry I went on a rant there but you have no idea how much bull shit ( please excuse the french) this has been, please let me know if there is ANYTHING I need to make up.
I also apologize for the lateness of this email....I just got internet working in my new room.
Sincerely,
Matthew King
PS: Housing is not going to reimburse me for any of my stuff....
PSS: This might turn into a blog post at the length of the rambling...

Quarantine and anger
So this past Tuseday night. Me and my room mate discovered that we do not have chiggers but, bed bugs.
These little bastards have swarmed both our matresses and rooms.
So he ended up sleeping on the lobby and I ended up in the J building sleeping on the couch. They have now such quartined our room and going through the process of killing the little grubby bastards.
Now I decided to come home instead of staying down there just to find out that my parents have them from the last time I visited.
The little bastards spread like wildfire all over the place.
Through some more investigating it turns out they came from a certain friend of mine back at home who was so kind to let me know he had them after the fact I am eaten up by the bastards.
Right now I am so infuriated I could punch a hole through a wall in a tank at the moment.
Whats even worse is the bed bugs are near resistant to most pesticides and other conventional forms of destruction.
The most guranteed way to kill the bastards is heat. Lots of heat. That is why I have helped my parents buy a steamer and an assormtment of bed bug killers.
We asked are exterminator how much it would cost to kill them and well I dont like four figure prices.
I end this blog now as I prepare to go to home depot and buy stock in the insecticide isle. There is so much anger right now I can't describe it.
Toodles.

If, M = Midterms, S= Stress, and I= Insanity...
My world history midterm is turning into such an intense and long study session which might end up in me losing part of my sanity.
122 terms along with an essay question to research for the thing.
I feel like I am being driven by a slave driver.
See I am a perfectionist to a fault. Especially and I do mean ESPECIALLY at tests.
This one is a test of my willpower, physical prowess at staying awake and my ability to fill my brain with so much information its going to implode on its self and create a vacuum to Cthulu!
Rabble rabble rabble.
Moving on into more fun and entertaining categories.
I got to play the Force Unleashed 2 demo today. This is the sequel to the highest selling Star Wars game ever made. The demo improves so greatly on the bugs and problems of the first one and adds so much more flavor to the title.
For one they finally added dismemberment. When you cut something with a light saber that limb should fly off not stay attached! Well while playing the limbo I saw more limbs fly off then in a Slasher film.
They also ironed out the controls to a easier to handle layout which improves game play and ease of use greatly from what it used to be.
There is also a slew of new force powers to use to toss, "Cook", and mind control your enemies off random cliffs into oblivion.
I am going to cut this short because I need sleep.

Graphical design and the waffle house hashbrowns.
Wow 2 posts in a week for once, omg the excitement.
I had my radio show tonight. Me and Jason Thomas do it on Friday nights. I really love it and it's a TON of fun.
We had a good show tonight and we decided to go to waffle house tonight to celebrate which was amazing and awesome. Even though tomorrow I am going to regret it very very bad.
At the mention of graphical design I have been volunteered by the dictatorship that is my Game Design group to design the logos for our board game which so far is coming along very nicely.
Felt good to use that old creative muscle again.
I gota also go on a rant for a minute.
The lack of motivation in this school amazes me.
I mean serioulsy I rarely see if anyone in Hornet studies minus my study group and a few other people. Hell my room mate has already auto failed a class for missing too many days.
Why waste your time and completely screw your education if your not going to try. I stood up tell like 10 am last night and still made it to class !
The kids at this school scream of apathy so bad. Why such depression when it comes to the fact that this is leading to the rest of your life. I dicked around at my old college and learnt my damn lesson.
Blargh, I apologize if this post is random and mis-guided. I decided to have a few drinks lol!
I am going to drunkedly wonder down stairs now and enjoy one last smoke before sleep!

Oh hey there its 5:11 am and I have class in a few hours.
As told by my English teacher I need to stop slacking on my blog posts.
Here I am fulfilling that process in a weary dream like state at this moment in time.
Today ironically enough was going to be the day I was going to actually catch up on sleep but, I went shopping at Wal Mart and bought some cleaning supplies to clean my room for inspections next week.
When I got back I decided to start the decontamination process of my dorm room.
Now the reason I chose to use such a big word is that my room mate is a slob. I mean complete utter slob. Jabba the hut would get along great with this guy. His room smells like a hobo that has been drug through a sewage drain in Haiti.
Pretty nasty, now due to this face we now have Chiggers. See he went camping a few weeks ago and still hasn't washed his clothes from them. Needles to say our dorm room is infested with them now.
I have bought some Off, Anti-Flea spray (Kills Chiggers just the same) and some Sulfur Powder (they cannot stand the stuff).
Hopefully this war effort reaches a high point because this is stupid. I have already basically forced my room mate to wash the clothes in question multiple times and I am hoping this takes care of the problem.
Well I have Die Hard 2 playing over on my tv at the moment thanks to netflix which is an amazing service if you have never used it and my bed is looking very tempting at the moment.

Road trips!
Took an amazing road trip this weekend with my friend Zack.
Friday night after my radio show we headed out to my home town.
We left at 11 and made it about 1 am, went to my friends house and played some D&D which was very interesting experience to say the least.
Then we headed to IHOP and had a great filling meal of cholestoral enhancing goodness.
Finally we made it back to my house and promptly collapsed into a comatose state.
The next day we woke up and headed to McKays which is a gigantic used book/cd/dvd/video game store wt is not doing so well and is on his last leg of life so I came to visit him and some assorted family members.
We also got to eat hands down the best meal I have had in months. A good old fashioned home cooked southern meal and the best kicker my mom made her famous peach cobbler which is just insanely good.
I saw my grandpa for a little while and he is doing very well for his condition. Its just a matter of time before he goes though according to the doctors. here you can trade in you old books movies etc. and get credit to use in the store.
We went nuts in there. Zack ended up getting 180 trade in and I got about 30 (I only took an old text book zack had boxes) We scoured that place and came out like bandits.
Afterwards I had to go visit some family and we headed to my grand parents. My grand father could go at any moment according to the doctors.
Well thats all I have for now I need to do laundry and some CGDD work so toodles!

Roll your d 20
I am very excited this week because we are actually get a D&D(Dungeons and dragons) group together for the dorms.
I haven't played D&D in ages and it is such a very amazing game for one with a massive imagination like myself.
The game is so open ended and allow you to pull off so much with so little.
I have been playing D&D since the wee age of fourteen or so.
The game really help develop my imgination allowing me to learn how to write a lot easier and develop some what acting skills.
Not to mention it allowed me to build some self confidence up for myself.
The game is pretty simple you roll dice, add modifiers and play through a story usually ran by a DM aka a dungeon master who is basically god through the game.
Also next week is another amazing game launch that I have been waiting for. A new Castlevania, I really do love this game I mean LOVE I have been playing them since I was 9 years old and could hold a NES controller.
They are very HP Lovecraft ish when it comes to their monster designs and it makes me very happy to see someone draw from that wealth of information due to my love of the lovecraft novels.
The gameplay usually consists of a lot of exploration and combat and of course massive insane and some times infuriating boss battles which add to the flair of the game and makes the series even more desirable to me.
Lots of things coming up in this next week so I am going to get off and finish up some other work.

Road trips and family.
Well this weekend has been a strange one.
My grandfather was hospitlized this weekend due to his emphyzeema and I ended up driving home this very weekend to see him and check on how things were going.
The drive itself was not very bad just very long and tiresome. It is a 3 hour drive to my house and another hour drive to the hospital he was staying at. There were quite a few family members I havent seen there and it was nice to re connect with some of them.
It is also quite amazing to see the number of people who have a facebook lol.
My grandfather as always was in good spirit and gave me a good hazing due to the fact I am still smoking which I am planning on quitting here soon. Which let me tell you is no easy feat in by its self.
I am currently updating this on my parents old desktop which is a piece of utter shit to put it bluntly and excuse my french.
I also had a chance while I was here to visit some of my old friends and spend some time with them which quite nice. It is always a change to come back after an extended period and see how much some people have changed in the span of two months.
Well it is getting late here and I am driving back to SPSU in the am so I will end this here so I can go play some halo reach and doze off to sleep in my room toodles.

My grandfather as always was in good spirit and gave me a good hazing due to the fact I am still smoking which I am planning on quitting here soon. Which let me tell you is no easy feat in by its self.
I am currently updating this on my parents old desktop which is a piece of utter shit to put it bluntly and excuse my french.
I also had a chance while I was here to visit some of my old friends and spend some time with them which quite nice. It is always a change to come back after an extended period and see how much some people have changed in the span of two months.
Well it is getting late here and I am driving back to SPSU in the am so I will end this here so I can go play some halo reach and doze off to sleep in my room toodles.

Reach will FALL!
Oh my god, I almost forgot to post in this stupid thing it has been a hellacious week.
First, 2 tests in the same week and one being a final at my old college. Yeesh my brain feels like silly putty or someone completely fried it with a thermal nuclear bomb.
I passed my final in my MYSql class which made me jump for joy in ways I cant describe. I offically finished the class with a 97 in it which makes me extremely happy. That means I still have a 3.9 at my old college which will help so much with my GPA.
Secondly, HALO REACH!!!
Reach came out this week. Holy shit balls man. The game is my crack cocaine. Me and my friend Pj beat it on legendary the first night. Doing co op through the story mode. Holy crap was that hard and I never knew I could cuss in such new and amazing ways that would even rival the great late Richard Pryor.
The story is amazing and the graphics with an HDMI cable is insane to behold on the giant tv's we have in the lobbies. The game it self is very intuitive and the new armor abilities in MP are amazing. I really do have such a love for jet packs and wish they were in more games and used a lot more in first person shooters.
I really have to say for all its trials and tribulations this has been one of the greatest weeks at SPSU yet. I am really loving this campus and the people I have met so far. It is a nice change from what I am used to at my old town.
Well toodles I am going to go pass out now.

My parents are vampires and I have netflix.
So yesterday the parents came down to visit hip hip hooray!
I got free food and free groceries gota love that.
We went to some mom and pops restaurant with an all you can eat ribs special.
Needless to say I am going to need a new heart soon due to blockage.
I also went and saw Machette yesterday.
Which was pure adrenaline spiking amazing.
Its a throw back to the old 80 exploitation films that I know and love. I also fount out that gardening tools can be used in ways never thought of to kill people which was pretty entertaining to say the least.
And the movie had a big point behind it talking about immigration and illegal aliens through out. Danny trejo does an amazing job as a leading blow shit up bad ass to be blunt.
Cheech Marlin also makes a cameo appearance and does a great job as Machettes brother/Priest.
Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodriguez play some very important roles but, are mostly there in the movie for eye candy.
Robert De Nero plays a crazy texas senator which is realllly hillarious to see him do and pull off as well as he does.
Lindsey Lohan plays a complete parody of her self as an ass kicking nun. I was almost in tears seeing her a nun the way they play it off is really hillarious and strange.
Overall go see machette it is amazing. I will for warn you it is one of the most graphic movies I have seen in terms of some of the violence.

Slacking procrastination and hot sauce.
So this has been a really amazing weekend so far.
Friday I got to go to the Vortex for the first time. That place is now one of my favorite places ever. I love the atmosphere and the food. Not to mention their beer selection is really really huge beyond belief.
I went with my friend Jason and some of his friends. I just felt so awkard cause I was the only one there who could legally drink. Even though I paid eight dollars for a single Guinness.
I have also discoverd a new favorite whiskey. Evan willams honey. This stuff is like the nectar of gods. God it is so good, I had a few shots of it at the vortex. (I wasnt driving) Drinking and driving is stupid and ignornant.
Also while waiting on our table we went running around downtown Atlanta.
That place is huge!
I am not used to the big city life but, I gota say it was a nice change from what I am used to. Coming from the middle of no where to here is like going from de caff diet soda to Mountain Dew Voltage.
We got to meet a lot of hobos and I got to see a hobo magician which I have to say was an unique experience. They actually had some pretty good tricks and was very entertaining for the most part.
I have also been exposed to so many good bands so far. My favorite thus far being blonde redhead. They are amazing I mean reallly amazing and they also sound like NIN which makes me very happy.

Random activities and a new tattoo
Labor day weekend has been amazing. I went to a local tattoo shop and finally got a new tattoo. Is healing at the moment and it hurts alot.
They had to unfounately its starting to begin the raw part of the healing process.
It was alot of fun to actually go and get it done I love getting tattoos and the whole process minus the healing part.
I will add a picture later when it is healed up completely. I went to a friends apartment to get it done. They have their own set up with in their garage.
I have it over my chest at the moment and it has a lepercauhn and IRISH PRIDE with a irish flag is flying about in the back ground.
The worst part was when they were going over my rib cage. The needle might be small but it hurts so bad when it goes over bones. So so bad over the bones.
It took about 3-4 hours to complete the tattoo.
It looks sooooo good sooo very good and has me very very happy.
I also took the time saturday to complete the majority of my homework complete so labor day I can rest on monday before the week starts again.
Parents are coming down this upcoming weekend and I am so happy be nice to see them for the first time since I have moved in. I really do miss them quite a bit and I miss my dog at home.

Late night ramblings of an insomnic fueled by yoohoo
Some thoughts always pop in my head at these late hours of the night wondering about things. If we would go back and change certain choices over the course of are life time would we really want to?
This question always seems to seep into my mind during some choices I have made over the 23 years of my life and I always come back to one said situation that was almost life changing to me.
I am not going to go into great detail about it but, if I had chose diffrenetly if I took the right turn instead of the left turn how much would be different right now in my life.
I guess for one I wouldn't be in college. Secondly I would probbally be working at a carpet mill making decent pay trying to support certain things that shall not be named.
Why do these questions always pop up late at night while I am trying to sleep and I wake up from such a horrible nightmare to reality reminding myself that I made the choice on this road that I call part of my life and I sometimes wonder if it was the right choice that I made.
I guess in the end we have to accept the choices we have made over our life because we will always answer for them.
They define us, make us who we are, and influence us for the rest of our natural lives.
I know this post is just for an english assignment but, damnit I got a little carried away by a very strange conversation I had on the phone while I was smoking that brought back some buried and strange feelings from a long time ago that should stay with the past.
Now time for sleep and have dreams about SWTFU2!!

Star wars and colds.
I sit here in my room still drowsy from some nyquil I took the other night. That stuff is amazing if you want to get some sleep, I strongly reccommend it.
I went to Gamestop yesterday with my friend Pj, at which point I purchased spiderman web of shadows, Lego Star Wars, and Fable 2.
Me and him proceeded to play lego star wars tell tell about 6 o clock in the morning. Non stop, we completed the first 3 episodes and I am about to go down stairs to start episode IV.
The game itself is pretty amazing. The platforming is alot of fun and the game is pretty hillarious seeing alll these epic moments from the star wars saga transpired down to legos. The combat is kinda clunky so to speak.
The whole time playing it I kept thinking of the force unleashed 2 which comes out here very soon and I cant wait to see what they have changed. Being a game design major gives me an excuse to use some loan money to look at new games ^_^.
The previews I have seen so far looks amazing and the new force powers seem like they will patch quite a punch. They have also fully updated the physics engine which makes the little programming nerd in me jump with joy.
As I mentioned before I have a touch of a summer cold which is berating my drive at the moment to do anything needed. I am most likely going to bed at an earlier hour tonight to get some sleep and try to get over this touch of this cold.
