Recently Sony has been getting some bad news. More specifically Doubts from Japanese Developers on several issues, owing a lot of back taxes, and Microsoft Looking like they won't let go of the console lead anytime soon. There is nothing I want to see more then Sony lose its support of Japanese Developers and end up in third in the console race with MS and Nintendo fighting it out for the lead. Although seeing Lance admit Superman is gay and Wolverine is the superior hero would be good to. I know I sound like a PS3 hater and maybe I am, but let me explain.
To start things off I should say hate is a little strong. I owned a PS1, played a decent amount of PS2, and if there are games I want for PS3 I will probably play them. So lets say I have a general displeasure for it which, at best allows, for an uneasy truce to play stellar titles like God of War. Perhaps I should start at the beginning.
The first system I paid for by my self was the SEGA Dreamcast, which made it sort of special to me. I played it for countless hours, especially in NFL 2K1. So when it went under I blamed Sony and their PS2 for "killing" my beloved Dreamcast. I know it is stupid but I can't help but blame them for it. Ever since I have disliked them and refused to own their systems.
On a lighter note LOTR Online: Shadows of Angmar is not only in the running for longest title ever, there is also a little interview up detailing a few points about the game. So far it looks great and I can't wait for the beta to start. I hope I get in.
Also a small note on the new template. I noticed Lance changed his and since I have no mind of my own I decided to find a new one for myself. It isn't anything special so it fits the Blog perfectly.

Oblivion, Aptly Named.
It turns out I had two good reasons for not posting, one I was working on a camp, and two I acquired Oblivion for Xbox 360 in a game of chance. Lets just say that any time I wasn't working on or attending camp I was strolling the plains of Cyrodiil in search of my next kill and/or great plunder.
Oblivion is a gaming masterpiece so refined it is like mana from heaven for 360 users. I can't believe how much of my free time was taken by this game. I have beaten the game once and I am now on my second character to fill out the guilds I didn't finish. If you own a 360 and don't have a copy of Oblvion you have to fall into one of my four categories.
1. The Oblivious
First notice the pun, I stayed up all night coming up with it. If you don't own a copy of Oblivion you must not know about or else you would own it right?
2. The Poor
You are the person that knows about Oblivion but just can't get the cash to get it. So you don't have the money to buy it yet, that is all right as long as you plan to buy it.
3. The Cheap
So you know about the game, have the money, but are too cheap to make the purchase, that's just stupid. I know some cheap people, and even they could not resist the call of the sweet, sweet joy that is Oblivion.
4. The Feebleminded
Those of you that do not fit into the above categories belong here. You simply won't buy it because you might not like it, or something stupid like that. Or maybe you are afraid you will never be heard from again as you level you Khajiit, with the Shadow birthsign and a custom class. All of these reasons lead me to have no choice but to name the category this way.
I will no longer mention Oblivion as there isn't much to say, so I will move on to topic number two under "reasons you didn't see me post", camp.
Camp was a week long affair that took us from swimming, to skeet shooting, to laser tag. I had a blast as a counselor and all of the kids were great, except one who shall remain nameless. At the end we had a bonfire that was easily 30 feet high, that was lit with a flaming arrow. I can easily say it was so beautiful it could bring a grown man to his knees. After all the work Three kids got saved which made all the work everyone put into it worth it. Our pastor is so excited about it we started planning for next year last night.
