August Has Come and So Will I!

August is finally here and though it may not mean much, we are a bit close to the holidays. A fantastic season full of PS3s and Wiis. Weee!

We start off this month with the release of Street Fighter tomorrow for Live. I think this may be hotter than Geonetry Wars. If that's true, I am gonna have to wonder how a 14 year old game is more popular than other Live Arcade games. If executed well with a lag free and good match making system, this could be more reolutionary than X-Band.

I have not played them yet, but Saint's Row and Ninety Nine Nights demos are out now. Been too busy trying to beat Prey. Not that its hard, I just haven't been able to play for more than 1 hour at a time. Great game though. Great game.

Other hot releases this month include Madden 07, Dead Rising, Star Fox DS, and Final Fantasy VII Dirge of something.

I was listening to 101.3 and I heard a commercial for Gamestop in Woodbury. Never thought I would see that. Even though it was a 10 second spot, must have been expensive. Anyway, grand opening in Woodbury.

EB Games in Ridgedale mall is closing down. There is a Gamestop across the street . This saddens me because I helped open that store. It was a new model EB and looked pretty cool.

I hit 51 in WoW. Just having a blast with it recently.

Damn. I remember setting up that store too. The fact that it used to be a petstore and had all this pawprint carpet that they didn't replace until years later was hilarious.

Thats right! It was Bow Wow Meow or something! Don't ask me how I remembered that.
