Christmas The Fun @TODO List

Posted on Wednesday, November 25, 2009 in Christmas, Game, Work, uni

I also have a not so fun one, which consists of writing buckets loads of code and report writing… but I’ll have a few days here and there.

ok I have a small games list that seems to be growing every time I look at it…(This doesn’t include any new releases! apart from 1)

Xbox 360

  • Chrome Hounds (I will finish this I promise)
  • Devil May Cry 4 (still sealed!) (£5)
  • Infinite Undiscovered (not a bad game just so hard to get back into) (£35)
  • Kengo Zero (this thing got rated lower than the game I worked on!) (£2.50)
  • Mass Effect (DLC)
  • PGR4 (£15)
  • WarTech (£2.50)
  • GRID (Well probably not) (£20)
  • Ridge Racer 6 (£5)
  • Street Fighter IV (yawn) (£35)
  • The Last Remnant (£5 from HEAD brand new)
  • The Simpsons Game (£10)
  • Fallout 3 DLC
  • Star Ocean 4 (£40)
  • Golden Axe (£5)
  • Ninja Gaiden 2 (£5)
  • Forza 3 (technically a new released so £40)
  • Condemned 2 (£10 really disappointed so far in this)

Emm yea there’s A lot of hours there…

PC

  • Dragon Age: Origin
  • DOW 2 (started it loved it not finished DOH)
  • Left 4 Dead 2 (Yea maybe in the new year)
  • Overlord II

There are a lot more those are just the ones I want to play

PS3

emmm Nothing actually, best £400 I ever spent…

Wii

  • A boy and his blob

PS2

  • MagnaCarta (started it)

That’s it

ok that’s the games out the way… and looking back I really need to stop buying 360 games when I see them for about £5 but its so tempting plus you can get some good games (forza 2 cost me £2.50)

other fun things to do, sleep, drink, eat and sleep

Now i don’t expect to get any of those done but I’m gonna try! And who knows next semester might give me some free time.

Dammit that’s reminded me I need a copy of Leopard or snow leopard…

And just to piss everyone off who haven’t started Christmas yet :D here you go. Still doesn’t count UNTIL I see it on TV so I’m still safe

This one better though :D

Nov 26

I think i was tired…

Posted on Monday, November 26, 2007 in Christmas, Games Development, Imagine Cup, Project Hoshimi, life

ok I got back from a family meal thing yesterday which was very nice actually firstly to see the family again (been like 6 years since we’ve all been together like this) but I knew I was tired but i didn’t realise how much to but it this way i went to sleep before the sun went down yesterday and i didn’t wake up again until 6:30 this morning (over slept lol needed to be up at 5:30 oppss).

yea I think i’m back on track now and I’m over the hump of semester 1 just have 2 more assignments to do (one for the first week in jan and the other er i dunno…) and 3 “Tests” (exams really) which are all also in the first week of jan so between now and then it easy sailing might even get some worth while gaming in and its pay day on Wednesday so bonus.

so after Wednesday I think I’m going to do some Christmas shopping which has been made easy this year because at some family meeting (must have been when i was at work yesterday morning) every decided to do some secret Santa thing, which for those who don’t know is when you only buy 1 present from someone.

ok so we put a bunch of names in a hat (well napkin but hey whos judging) and we each pick a name and that who you need to get a present for (no one knows who got who) so it makes Christmas shopping easier in one way because you don’t need to buy 500 different pointless pieces of crap (and in return i don;t get 500 bottles of crap smelling after shave and what not) but on the other hand you need to pick a good present for that person which is hard but its made better because there’s a limit on how much to spend so cheaper :D

so this Christmas I might have more disposable income because I only need to get like emm 5 presents at the most I think. so this means I can get a few things for me like a web server WHOO. ok now comes the hard part finding a present for Charlotte emm this is hard very hard.

well now I have a bit of time to play some Assassins creed even though its not that great its enjoyable and i paid for it so god dammit I’m going to play it. I also have Eternal Sonata, Dirt, N3, Bullet witch, Half life 2, Project Slypheed, Crackdown, enchanted arms and Earth defence force 2018 to play so i think that can keep me entertained over the next few weeks.

I’ve also entered the Imagine cup for game development and Project Hoshimi Programming Battle both will be a great challenge I’m not expecting to even get close to the finals in France but i’m going to have a bloody good go. (plus the placement and RARE or EA ohh that a good prize)
