The New Year is finally upon us and with that, the retail madness is quickly starting to die down. F.Y.E., job-wise, isn’t too bad, but I really want/need a full-time job. This small area is making me realize that unless I find something soon, I’m going to have to move. It’s unfortunate, but there’s just nothing here in Massena, NY and for some unknown reason, this town and its officials don’t seem to want to try and bring in new, big business. Instead, they cater to the elderly and local business…
So I’m still job hunting, just so it’s known 
On the video game front, I traded a few games on Goozex and got a few in return. inFAMOUS was sent out, as was Ski-Doo Snowmobile Challenge and 28 Days Later on Blu-ray. Quick note, NEVER buy 28 Days Later on Blu-ray, it looks like absolute shit. Seriously, the original source was shot on a handycam essentially so naturally it isn’t going to stretch well. Thankfully Tropic Thunder (Blu-ray) should be coming in the mail soon so I’m looking forward to that. I got Madden 10 in recently, a few days ago actually, and so far I’m NOT impressed. I threw that up on my offers list on Goozex last night. I’ll stick with Blitz: The League II on my 360 for now. For now, I’ll probably sit back and enjoy some Cabela’s Outdoor Adventures on my PS3 and wait for some games to pop up on my want list on Goozex.
Other possible newsworthy notes; I got Callan to join Twitter. We canceled our cable from Time Warner which will save us about $70 a month (score!). Callan and I are driving to Chicago in February to see Utada live at the House of Blues, should be a fun drive (/sarcasm). That’s about it I think. I hope everyones’ New Year and Christmas went well and here’s to a better 2010.
Will post pictures…eventually
Oct 1st
I said I’d have pictures up “soon” but I’ve honestly been having so much fun with my PS3 Slim that I never get around to taking the pictures, etc. I’ll try to work on that this weekend. I beat Uncharted: Drakes Fortune last week. Fun game, though the waves of enemies was frustrating at times. Overall, 8.9/10. Great game. I’ve been playing Burnout Paradise too, just got my ‘Burnout’ license yesterday actually. I believe I’m 1 trophy away from getting the Platinum trophy, unfortunately, I need the EyeToy or 360 Vision Camera to get the mugshot trophy…will have to wait to get that. Fun game though.
I just traded in some games at GameStop last week. I have $115.xx in store credit thanks to their 4/$20 trade-in deal. Hoping they have a Buy 2, Get 1 free sale soon. I’m eying inFAMOUS, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, and a 3rd game that I’m not sure about yet. Perhaps Demon’s Souls, or Batman: Arkham Asylum, or Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2. Who knows. Looking forward to getting some new games though.
Here’s hoping I get a callback soon for a job I applied for. Really getting tired of working at The Home Depot. So many lazy employees, so many wasted or pointless markdowns, it’s insane the store turns a profit. But whatevs 
Is he dead?

A new Pre-E3 trailer was released for Mass Effect 2 and this game is shaping up to be even more amazing than the first, and that’s saying a lot considering the first game was awesome. The major plot unknown is whether Commander Shepard (main character) is dead or not. We don’t know, no one is telling us, though they’ve hinted at BOTH yes and no. Aside from that unknown, just about everything is being improved upon, from the long elevator rides, to the inventory system, I can’t wait. Just watch the trailer below;
Awesome, I know. And just to highlight some of that awesomeness…
