*dance dance*

Anyway, been a while since I’ve updated, got myself a bunch of new stuff and, I suppose, I enough to talk about that’s (somewhat) not gaming related. I suppose I should start with that.

Everyone bitches about their job. I’m no different. Remember that arcade job I had back a couple month ago (September of last year)? Yeah, I got it back again due to a friend of mine quitting. I simply took over his spot. So I only work weekends and stuff for a total of 15 hours. Yes, a whopping total of 15 hours. I work 10 AM – 5PM on Saturdays and 11AM – 7 PM on Sundays. Although it’s pretty lax work most of the time, it does tend to get boring. REAL boring. But you can only imagine all the idiots that actually walk in and ask about stupid shit. Therefore, I’m creating a new rant segment of mine: Tales of Arcadia. Hopefully this doesn’t trigger anything for anyone, but I figured it would be a good name for it. I’ll probably summarizing my job experience for the week and anything significant that comes out of it.

Yeah…

So enough about my job. Gamestop had a B2G1 free sale this weekend, and because of it, it’s left me completely broke. Managed to pick up:

• Madworld (Wii)
• Final Fantasy V Advance (GBA)
• Burnout Paradise (360) – FREE!!
• Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection (360)
• Dead Rising (360)
• Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal (PS2) – FREE!!

So I got myself a nice little haul here. Happy with it for the most part. Madworld is a definite keeper. Been playing it with several of my friends for sheer joy. Final Fantasy V is definitely a keeper for Noi’s Final Fantasy Marathon. Burnout Paradise was a forced decision from Blinkin when I was with him buying games on the first day of the sale. I didn’t exactly know what to pick up, so he tossed this my way. I haven’t regretted it so far as I’m having a lot of fun with it and stuff. So what did he pick up while we were game shopping? Shadow of Destiny for the PS2. :3

As for the second half of the haul, my real goal was to pick up the Ultimate Genesis Collection. That was about it. So why the lackluster selection of games afterwards? Place was closing in 15 minutes when I got there, so they were a bit rushed. I picked up Dead Rising to possibly sell back to my friend. For cheaper, of course, but it was mainly for him. Up Your Arsenal was a whim choice because I was going to pick that one up eventually anyway, but I’m planning to return it due to poor disc condition as well as it being a Greatest Hits box, so we’ll see what happens when you try returning a free game. If I don’t get anything back for it, I’ll hold on to it until I could find a better copy or something.

But how’s that Final Fantasy Marathon going for me? Really fucking slow. Still on Final Fantasy Ion the Dawn of Souls cartridge. Ugh, for ungodly encounter rates.

I’m done. I’m tired. Read some stuff below me.

Until then, later~
