whoa. wtf? both EGM and GameFan are back on the magazine stand both labeled as their "relaunch" issue. i ended up buying both of them. although i heard EGM was returning months ago, the return of GameFan surprised me.

in the third sector. 14 hours in.

just noticed Ocarina of Time has climbed past Demon's Souls to take the #2 spot on my review hits with 384...can it catch up to Modern Warfare 2? it is sitting pretty at 571.

i'm feeling pissed and burned out..

Infinity Ward is one of the few American gaming companies that i like and two of their lead designers were shitcanned. i won't be looking forward to Modern Warfare 3. goodbye Activision your franchises are already dead!

gonna put some of my files on megaupload so i can have an easy time redownloading my crap...just in case my computer goes shitty on me. got a few goodies that took me forever to find. feel free to check em out.
