Video Game History

This week will see the release of an ungodly amount of games. http://www.joystiq.com/2006/11/13/new-games-this-week/

I won't be able to pick up half the games I wanted due to the release of PS3 and Wii. Also, I had to spend $300 to fix my PC. The video card ended up burning out and I picked up the GeForce 7800 AGP. Needless to say, WoW looks gorgeous. Turned out that my power supply wasn't strong enough the keep the video card up so I had to upgrade from 300watt to 500 watt. Expensive but well worth it.

I'm not keeping up on the DDR like I want to. The latest Internet ranking ends this Wednesday and my scores are crappy to say the least. I'll really try for the next rankings. I hope.

Not even sure if I work at Gamestop this week. The district manager cut their hours by 8 and I work 6 of those. Sounds funny considering they expecting over 50 brand new SKUs.

I was thinking about unloading some stuff on Ebay. My collection has grown so much that it is almost unbearable to look at. And with a baby on the way, I won't have any time at all. I've done this before. I sold thousands of dollars worth of games on Ebay only to buy them back. I'm thinking of selling some small stuff like Japanese comics and old strategy guides. Heck I might even sell Oblivion and Phantasy Stay Universe. I don't even play those anymore.

Oh yeah. Gamefly has been trying to get me to come back for a long time now. They keep sending me offers to return. Are they desperate? Not sure. Maybe I was their best customer =)
