BRILLIANT FUCKING IDEA!

I'LL LIVE IN COLUMBIA ALL SUMMER! WHAT A GOOD IDEA!
I'LL LIVE HERE, PAY BILLS, DIVE, AND DRINK BEEER!
I'LL BE HAPPY I'LL BE FREE I'LL BE WISE AND I WON'T GO TO FUCKING SUMMER SCHOOL
I'LL STAY UP LATE, WATCH CHAMPLOO, WATCH FULLMETAL, PLAY WARCRAFT, PLAY STARCRAFT, EAT BURRITOS, AND DO WHATEVER THE HELL I WANT
I'LL SIT ON THE COUCH AND WONDER IF THE BITES I'M GETTING ARE FROM OUTSIDE OR FROM THE INSIDE OF THE COUCH ITSELF
i'll not do laundry and not clean my room, i'll not take out the trash, and i'll forget when rent is due.
i will not sleep, not work out, not worry, not care, not be lonely, not lose things, not get out of shape , and NOT stress out about ANYTHING because it's SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED AND WHAT THE FUCK DID I DO?! I HAVE NO JOB I HAVE NO LIFE I SIT ON MY ASS DAY AND NIGHT I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE AND I DON'T WANT TO MOVE AND I WISH I WERE ASLEEP ALL DAY AND CAN'T GET TO BED TILL DAWN AND WON'T have internet because they will cut it all off, and i will lose the power to freeze the burritos and i will drop out and lie down and walk everywhere rolling a ball of shit that is the remains of my retched room and yell at strangers and fall down and bleed and not care.
about anything.
ever again.
fuck.


i have nothing here and i don't know what i'm doing.

Xbox 360? who thought up THAT name?

I religiously read Electronic Gaming Monthly. If I see a new edition on the shelf, i don't read it, I BUY IT. "This is not Xbox 2" says J Allard, corporate vice president for Xbox. This article in EGM is titled "REVOLUTION" in big letters, playing off the 360 name, but honestly... if a peice of hardware is supposed to revolutionize gaming, it's going to take a lot more than MADDEN, and SEQUELS and MULTIPLAYER to do that. Playing online is supposed to be a HUGE new breakthrough that will begin a "new era" of gaming, but little is done to comprimise the cost of this "new era" which will soon become a "big bust" for corporations begging people to buy online contracts to play these new games. Specific games have breeched gaps and become phenomenal hits and have CREATED genres on their own because of their ability to stand apart from the crowd. These other nonspecific, yet sometimes/somehow wildly popular games, will be must-have titles for their graphics or replayability.

I AM COMPLETELY DENYING XBOX IT'S RIGHTS TO CLAIM THEIR CROWN AS REVOLUTIONISTS.

If they want to start a revolution, then put forth some games that are
FUCKING
DIFFERENT.
I'm not saying "the opposite" or anything absolutely different than what is out right now, I just want somebody to say "This will all be different." and then take risks to follow up with the true revolution. I may and probably am talking out of my ass, but dammit... the hardware does NOT matter if your games are regurgitated, 256-bit shiny polished games. Now i end my rant.
