I watched all 3 E3 2009 Press Conferences. One stands out as the big winner… Microsoft XBox 360. I watched in this order:  Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo. I like how Microsoft got into the game (no pun intended) right away, no talked about figures. It was very engaging. Then comes Sony, bla bla bla… too  many talks about figures. Boring. And last Nintendo… I thought I am watching the last year E3, all the same games and same characters, all sequels, so what’s new this year? The preview also not engaging and mostly were for DS games. Well, I can understand because Nintendo sells more DS than Wii. But I don’t own DS, so boring…!

I am a serious fingers movement gamer not the (oh, so fun) body movement gamer, so after watching the press conferences, I am still sure I will not get Wii or Xbox Natal (even though I feel it really is out of this world).

Go Microsoft!

I believe you all know the book/movie “Ring” by Koji Suzuki. Yes, I scared shitless at the end watching the Japanese version. So, you literally scared shitless now (really, literally) when you read Suzuki’s new horror story “Spot” on toilet paper.

On my previous post, I said “the only reason to get DS…”. Well, another reason is after I get the new PSP Go It looks cool, although the analog stick does look a wee bit small and awkward. Well, but using this to watch movie on the go is real plus with such a big (small) screen.

On to my race, still linger at high 80s, since I (still) not pursuing it madly. I’ll go slow and steady.

Ok, as the only soul that doesn’t have Facebook account, I also don’t own Wii or DS. But seeing this news on Ghibli Studio RPG, I may get the DS just because of this game. Look so nice, so Ghibli.

As of today I am ranked 90 on my race. Slowly and surely, I’ll beat this race.

Since last week, I am still linger at rank 100. I need to gain some points or I’ll lose that spot. For that I need to stop playing Too Human and start gaining some points! But I can’t, I want to play that game. Dilemma… the race will probably take longer than whoever expected.

I just notice I got a new badge from 360voice.com, it is a Horror Badge. Looks like by finishing Jericho give me lots of points for this genre. My current badges from 360voice.com:
