A couple weeks ago, my 360 finally bit it and got the red ring of death. But that hasn't stopped me from buying stuff for it! The following things have been purchased or delivered after the RROD...

1600 points card & Watchmen movie pack = $20 @ Best Buy
Spider-Man: Web of Shadows = $30 @ kmart.com
Rock Revolution = $5 @ Target
Lego Indy/Kung Fu Panda = $12 @ Gamestop

Along with those, I've also ordered...
Braid = $10 @ XBL Web Marketplace
Banjo Kazooie Nuts & Bolts = $20 @ Amazon
Earth Defense Force/Samurai Warriors 2 = $20 @ Amazon

I should have my console back by the middle of next week. I can't wait to try Braid and Spider-Man. I may even try Rock Revolution for a couple minutes.

Today, I achieved a gamerscore of 13337! This time, it wasn't a coincidence.



I'd like to thank KingBroly for the suggestion, and Forza 2's 1 point achievement for evening out my score. What number should I go for next?

While I'm blogging, let me show some love to Giant Bomb and their Persona 4 Endurance run. Their MST3K style commentary cracks me up. They've been doing it for about 2 weeks now, and I hope they don't stop anytime soon.

I went to NYCC on Sunday and had a blast! For a comic book convention, there were a hell of a lot of video games! I got to play GTA: Chinatown Wars, Madworld, House of Dead Overkill, and Dragonball for the PSP. I thought it was funny that I needed my age verified to play Grand Theft Auto on a DS. Then later on, I played Madworld with no questions asked. I got to slice up fools with a chainsaw, and it was on a big screen tv for kids and everyone else to see.

I took pics too! Here are a few...

Ooooh! My first "Stuff I bought" blog!

Anyway, I cannot wait for Street Fighter IV!

After much consideration, I finally decided to pre-order the game for the PS3 instead of the 360. I needed to get an arcade stick for whichever system I decided. So I chose to get a PS3 stick, so I can play PS2 fighters as well.

Well in the past couple days, I picked up the following...

The Hori PS3 joystick recently price dropped to $30 at Gamestop. After that, I picked up Street Fighter Anniversary, and Capcom Classics Vol. 1 at Circuit City for $20 total. I didn't feel like that was enough, so I went back to Gamestop for the rest of the games. After the Edge card and 10% off coupon, it was about another $50.

Capcom Classics 1 has the original Street Fighter II, Champion Edition, and Hyper Fighting. Classics 2 has Street Fighter...

So I was playing Mirror's Edge tonight, and happened to achieve a 11111 gamerscore. I think it's neato.



Anyway, CAG has really spoiled me on Microsoft points. This year, I have stocked up on points cards from b1g1 sales, "2 for $30" sales, etc. Now with The Killers Rock Band pack and SSF2THDR coming out, I may have to... *gulp*... pay $20 for a card. Woe is me

I just wanna say you to Rockstar Games. They never sent me an e-mail to claim my "Key to the City" prize. I 100%ed GTAIV 3 hours before their contest deadline. Booooo!

Anyway, today I download the new System of a Down tracks for Rock Band. I thought "B.Y.O.B." on Hard guitar was a little too easy. Knowing the song, I expected to play a few more notes and chords. So I tried it on Expert guitar and failed at 4%. LOL I stink!
