New Wardrobe

I havent bought new clothes in YEARS. Thus, most of my wardrobe consists of old, faded graphic tees. Many of these are nerdy, as they feature either video games, Simpsons, Family Guy, super heroes, or some random stupid saying, such as “I am One Step Closer to World Domination” and my custom Star Wars shirt “You’ll Pay the Price for Your Lack of Vision.” Needless to say, between the old clothes and my coming on in age, it was high time for a new wardrobe.

I hit the mall yesterday with absolutely no results. Clothing is a lot different today then it used to be. First off, the clothing sizes are all different. Everything is now “athletic fit” or “classic fit”, which means the clothes run shorter and tighter, and are of a thinner material. Not for nothing, but I would call this a “gay fit.”

Also, the style of clothes are all out of whack. There are still plenty of stupid, cartoony, nerdy graphic tees, but I wanted to stear clear of that. Thus, I was limited to basically no tees at all, as they were all either nerdy tees or some crazy rapper tees, with all the squigglys and such all over the place.

So all in all, I ended up settling on an entirely new look, consisting mostly of polos. Its a classy look, and I guess I feel more “mature” in it. I just dont want to be the 27-year old guy in class who is wearing the “20 Reasons Why I like Video Games” t-shirt…

PS3 Demo Review- Heavy Weapon- Atomic Tank

Wow…this game blew me away. Im considering purchasing it off PSN.

Its a very simple, bright, brilliant game. You play as a tank, and you are at the bottom of the screen. You use the left analog to move back and forth (sidescrolling only) and the right analog to fire the tanks guns. Basically you just fire up at enemy planes that fly over you showering you with rockets and missiles and other stuff. As you go, you can unlock powerups to get bigger or faster guns or a shield, and you can also use points gained after each level to upgrade you main weapon by adding a laser or missiles to the tanks primary shot.

Visually, the game rocks. Its sharp and colorful, and looks great on screen. There are 19 levels to play through, but also a few different modes (which I couldnt check out on the demo) as well as online play. Like I said, Im tempted to pick this game up because its a load of fun. But I already snagged FF7 last week and Gunstar Heroes this week, so Im gonna pass this one up for now. But Im sure I’ll be tempted to pick it up in the future. The demo is totally worth the time to check out.
