Topic: What are you excited about?

What's approaching that has you giddy?

For me, it's the upcoming half-naked Greek man goodness that's coming in two mighty, flowing spurts.

300 opens this Friday and I'm desperate to find an IMAX to see it at. I'll fucking spooge if I manage to find one, but even without it, I'll fucking spooge. I'll spooge greatly...like, in waterfalls. In your eyes.

God of War 2 comes out on the 14th. For a game with very little hype going on, I'm really excited about it. They went from a lack of impressive footage to "holy shit, he's tearing wings off a gryphon" in nothing flat. I've got no reason to be anything but excited.

I'm moving soon, to a nice little house with two bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen with a fucking DISHWASHER, and a washer-dryer. Most importantly, it has a cool little backyard for my awesome little puppies.

I want a next gen console and I'm not sure which one to get. The Wii has Zelda, but it's hard to find. The 360, I want to try Gears of War and Guitar Hero 2, but I can't find anything else that's jiving.

So what are you excited for?

Same as you 300, and GoW2, which coincides with 300 so nicely, it will be a very spartan week.

I'm looking foreward to the great st. patties day pub crawl down in the college drinking district of Columbia, SC, where I plan to get shitfaced on Guinness and try to get into a few girls pants.

Then its hohum time until end of may.

While goofing off between calls, I discovered that the old Bullfrog game Theme Park is being released for the Nintendo DS on the 20th of this month.

I had the DOS version from when I got my P-75, but by the time I'd upgraded it to 166 mhz, it was too fast to play even at the slowest speed. Also, it got really buggy and glitchy when your park got big. Having a hopefully non-buggy handheld version will be well worth the $30.

I'm also looking forward to finally hopefully finishing scrounging up gold for my epic flying mount in World of Warcraft, and can get back to instances/key parts and such.

Depends for me. The jury is still out on wether or not the 360 will support mods. Epic wants it to, and is fairly sure it will, but Microsoft hasn't given the final say yet.

Why does MS have to be such tremendous cum-guzzling assholes about mods? First they fucked over the 360 Oblivion now this. Even worse, Live! is probably the best possible environment through which to host user created content... I don't know what the issue is. Sure, it's a lot of bandwidth, but Fileplanet does more hosting - both game and file - at about the same monthly rate.

I have to tell you, if anything could sway someone off the fence about upgrading from that silver account, a whole world of user content could.

    After nearly two years of development, final integration for my satellite is on Wednesday. Launch is on March 27th. It's great to be almost done with it, although operations will likely be pretty taxing as well. There's a bit of a "good riddance" aspect too, as this project was supposed to be done 8 months ago. God, I hope it works.

    I'm awaiting a call from Apple sometime this coming week regarding an internship this summer, that's pretty exciting as well.

    At the risk of breaking the record, I say 300, as well. More than that, though, my wife's on vacation all next week, so I get to sit around in my underwear, scratch my balls, and play video games for a week straight. So I got that going for me.

    300 as well, although I'll probably miss it like I have a few other movies I wanted to see.

    Not much on the game front, cept God of War 2. The only things aside from that I'm interested in right now are too far off yet (Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising) or held in obscurity (F-ING SPORE!)... So for now I just make do with Guild Wars...

    Vacations are fun. I'm on Spring Break myself. I took the week off from work and am just relaxing around the house. In my underwear scratching my balls no less.

    14th is probably taking into account that the 13th is the ship date.

    I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

    I'm looking forward to the release of 300, too, but alas my mantoy doesn't have time off until next week so I shan't be seeing it until then.

    I'm also looking forward to tearing up my front and back yard in the name of greeny growing goodness and play set building! (okay, I admit, I really enjoy driving Canyonero up the back hill just for kicks).

    Apparently the AMC 30 Deer Valley will be showing it at their IMAX. It's about a 40 minute drive for me, but it's WORTH IT.
