Hehe, I caught you alls attention didn't I? XD You all are my friends, and ya'll don't have to read this blog if you don't want to. Just blogging about stuff that I'll be doing soon or even right now, so please do read!!!
 
Well, I’m very excited about going on vacation this year and finally getting out of town after so long!! Sunday is when I start heading out to a lake in the middle of nowhere, but close to suburbia and/or the city. Family is planning on just relaxing at our very nice family-owned camper and riding on our boat too. We are also going to put a small porch in front of our camper, so it’ll make sitting and even being outside more enjoyable. I’m planning on bringing my games and several movies with me for entertainment, since there aren’t going to be any people there. Unfortunately there is no internet or wifi where I’m going, unless if I go to use the library’s wifi for internet, which really won’t be too often, if at all!

While I’m on vacation, I’m planning on to visiting a Gamestop, since there isn’t in one in my town, to look for Chrono Trigger DS and other games that I might be interested in ( Jet Set Radio Future). I want to see if they offer better prices for the game compared to the game and comic store in my area. I’m also planning on going to visit my favorite pawn shop to look through various items and such. Mom will look at jewelry, dad will be looking at coins since he is a coin collector, and I'll be looking through music instruments and other various things that the pawn shop has. (I wish they had games, but they don’t. Such as life, I suppose.)

Sometime soon (2-4 weeks), I’m planning on getting myself a nice headset so I can use it when I talk on the podcasts and to people with better sound quality! I really want to buy a good headset, but nothing that is too expensive.

Having a good summer so far, though I do wish that there are more games that I can play. I guess it’s my disadvantage of having only one console that is from this generation of consoles, and of course money. At least I have Super Mario Galaxy 2, Art Style: Rotozoa, and Bejeweled 2 to keep me busy. I don’t really want summer to end because college is just around the corner, which starts sometime late next month. The schedule is going to be very odd. Not looking forward to my first night class. = - / I also wish I could find some way to learn how to drive. It’s not easy going to college knowing that most people my age already know how to drive, and I don’t. Can’t find anyone to teach me because of a lack of social life, and money is so tight anymore. = - \

Well, I’m glad that this blog didn’t turn out super long. If anyone really spent time reading this blog, then I applaud you. You actually….. care!! If you comment, YOU REALLY DO GIVE A CRAP ABOUT ME!! YAY!!! Didn’t read this blog? WELL, FORGET YOU!! …….. Well, at least you acknowledged it by glancing. = - |

Hope you all have had a nice vacation, or going to have a nice vacation soon! If any of ya’ll think that there are some games that I should look into, or any recommendations on a good headset, then let it rip! (Microphone/headset must be from retail. Wal-mart and etc….= - /) Share how your vacation is going so far too!!  Anyways, SEE YOU ALL LATER!!!
 
Thanks!!

YES! Another video game music blog!! In this blog there are 28 songs; 2 of them are fan-made, and one theme was never used. I might be what some people call a Nintendo fan-boy, but as you can see in this blog I’ve came across some really great songs that isn’t necessarily for just one system or console. Does that mean that there might be a chance or interest for me to get another console? Absolutely, if I had enough money that is!! As you may see from all the other blogs I’ve created, ya’ll know that I’ve tried listing things besides Nintendo stuff.

Hey people! It’s me doing another blog about the non-sense and stuff ya’ll probably don’t care about….. then again ya’ll might care! I’ve broken this blog down into parts or in this case “spoilers” for your convenience. The purpose of this blog is to educate you on what an episodic game is (that is if you don’t know), mention the games that are/will be released in episodes or chapters, advantages and disadvantages of an episodic game, and finally my thoughts on episodic games. 

What is an episodic game?

Games that are/will be released in episodes or chapters

According to Wikipedia

Advantages of an episodic game

Disadvantages of an episodic game

My Thoughts

Hope ya’ll have enjoyed reading my blog. Comments are appreciated even if you don’t have a real comment. Just shows you’re paying attention, or just the fact that you looked at this because it caught your attention. Take care of yourselves and until next time!

Inspired by this Thread

Before

What I would like to see at this years Nintendo Press Conference.

After

Please list the people you want to be your friend and why.
 
1.        Robin Williams - Besides being my favorite actor, I think it would be cool to be friends with him. Why? Because he’s funny, and he has an interesting life story, and he’s been in a lot of movies that I still love to this day. There would be plenty to talk about, and there would be an instant friendship. Believe it or not, he is a gamer!! Don’t believe me? Visit his Wikipedia page.

2.        Eithne Ní Bhraonáin (Enya) – Besides being my favorite singer, it would be interesting to get to know her more. She lives in a beautiful castle in Ireland that I would love to visit, and she inspires me to travel to Ireland someday. I would love to hear some of her experimental works in music, I would like to see some of the watercolor paintings, and I wouldn’t mind seeing the kinds of artwork she collects. I just know that whatever she paints and collects is going to be beautiful.

3.        Shigeru Miyamoto – I might need a translator to actually talk to him. = - P I would just love to just talk to him about video games. I could probably talk to him all day and into next week about games. Haha.

4.        At least one person from the big 4 – We all know who these 4 people are! I tried getting a response from some of the Giantbomb staff members, but no luck. Just want to talk about interests in games and such. Get some recommendations too. At least I can be thankful for the friends I’ve already made here on Giantbomb. = - D

5.        Gene Simmons and his family– I don’t like heavy metal or heavy rock music. However, I like some music that he (Gene) and his band were involved with like “Rock and Roll All Nite” and “Beth”. Even though that would be an area that I probably wouldn’t talk to him about a lot, but he is a very intelligent individual who has a great amount of business sense. It would be interesting to get a few tips from him about how to run a business, and stuff that he has done to be successful. Not only is he a person I would like to get to know, I wouldn’t mind meeting his family. In the reality series “Gene Simmons Family Jewels”, not only is he funny, but his family is funny and entertaining at the same time. They do seem to be a great bunch of people.

 *Added some people to the list.

6. Jackie Chan - Because he is awesome
7. Tom Hanks - Legendary Actor!
8. Steve Martin - He can be my favorite grandfather.
9.  Adam Sandler - He's wild, man!!
10.  Jennifer Love Hewlett - Don't judge me. I like her.
 
Aside from my pipe dreams of actually being a friend to these people, I would like to take a moment to acknowledge those who have become my friends on Giantbomb, even the ones that may not be here anymore that I was friends with. Thanks for being nice and mostly honest. Who really needs to be friends with the following people above when I got my real-life friends and people like you that I've met on Giantbomb. So thanks! Always willing to learn something new and see someone new too. Anyway, see you all later, and until next time.

 There was once a punk and a dork...they wanted to get some pork...Tha pig said No...and a fart he did blow...Tha punk and tha dork...they dropped their fork...they fell to their knees...and asked for more, please...they got so high...they ate a pie, and became friends wit tha pig.  He He He.    
 

Gork quest in la reson katawhapa justinint herisher en tha yarkest.  Hemer floackerst eekee tramastiduious gooflock vasergastro do toipar gossnell.

Cluck Cluck..tha rooster kissed tha duck,  Tha bear went to tha lake..to ride a boat with a Snake, The deer and the antelope..went to to elope, The turkey took to tha hills..to eat berries & get high on pills, If ya think this is strange, how about cooking pencils in a radar range.  He He  

Hay Hay Hay and A He He Heeee, Tha Goon is in tha toilet ya see, He got so drunk, he smelled like a skunk, he wanted to see Haley's Comet, but instead he went to tha porcelain to Vomit, His eyes were so red, His feet were so blue, He fell out of bed and sniffed some glue!!!

There is one great problem with drinking beer, If ya drink one ya will pee three I hear.  Some wise man once said, As i was laying drunk in bed.  Give up tha beer, liquor is quicker, to get ya to La La Land it is so much quicker.  Now there are some goofy pills, that will give ya some wild thrills.

Money, why does it go so quick?

Well, it’s that time again! Yes, more video game music. As you can see, I’ve had some experience in creating blogs that involve such music.

Many of you might remember these posts back in 2009, perhaps you don’t. I think that there needs to be a new blog with more new video game songs that I like! I tried to make all the songs in this blog different from what I posted in the past, and hopefully I've done okay. Remember that these songs are in no particular order of favorites or anything. It’s just 30 songs that I like in video games. As always share your favorites too, and recommend me songs if you wish!! I love to listen to new things! Enjoy the music! And, Hello Mister Pie. =-P

 One year ago from yesterday, which felt a lot longer for me, I have joined and made my presence known on the Giantbomb community. So, I’m going to dedicate this blog to the community for the reason that ya’ll have made me feel so welcome from the start. Joining the Giantbomb community is probably one of the best things I have done, and there are certainly some good memories. The contributing factors like wiki edits, the blog posts, the Bombcast, and the forum posts are not why I am here even though they do help me stay and enable me to meet new people; I am here for the people, which are not considered to me as a contributing factor. Being part of Giantbomb has been a learning and growing experience for me, and it’s helped me experience something new. My typing speed has even improved, because of me writing things!! I cannot believe that I have missed out on such joy on being part of some sort of community for so long, and I think I joined the best one considering that I love to play videogames like everyone else here. I’m going to continue contributing to the site in my own way. I give my thanks and best of wishes towards a great new year for the Giantbomb community, and perhaps this will be a great year for games as well.
 
GAME ON!!! = - D

 
-Ty (AKA: Mork)

P.S. – I know that they held the Grammy awards not too long ago, so I apologize if this blog sounds like I am acknowledging that I won some sort of an award when I really didn’t win. = - P Also, How could I have left for a week without acknowledging that I’ve been here for a year? I simply couldn’t do such a thing. The reason why I’m gone for a week, at least until Saturday, is that there are several problems that have popped up that I don’t really want to mention that will prevent me from getting on. Ya'll have no idea how much I hate that. So those of you that talk to me on a certain basis, hang tight!!!

Post a picture of the text books that you had/have in school/college, and/or you may post the classes you are taking right now if you are in school/college.
