Feeling a Little Lost (and Insane) today...

So I just mailed my practically dead XBox out today, for it's goddamn month long vacation in Texas. Since that expensive (and, to my disgust, damn near obsolete) piece of s*it kicked the bucket, I have been just a little lost in the world.

Current past times include annoying the shit out of girlfriend (unadvised, let me tell ya...), playing Breath of Fire 3 (I caved in after the death) and just being lost I suppose. Take today for example...

I spent the day generally trying to plot my way into getting my hands on a spiffy new PS3. But regardless of the thoughts, methods and general schemes I had in mind, I was shot down instantly by my lovely girlfriend (hence the annoying antics on my part... no worries, we do it to each other anyway on an almost daily basis).

What probably has not helped matters is the fact that I have not taken to just playing the Wii alone. Factor in the fact that I think most of the games available for that system is a waste of space and out right annoying. Which I also mentioned to my girlfriend as we strolled through Blockbuster.

You could imagine how much she loved me today.

But really, Puppy Luv? Barbie?? M&M Racers??? I thought these types of shit games were saved for AFTER the system is about due for death and not when it is the best selling system out there? I mean really, why don't they just seal the deal on themselves now and just start up a "Super Mario Bros. vs. Barney & Friends BRAWL" game? Or maybe "Mario vs. Barney vs. M&Ms vs. Barbie vs. Puppies vs. Everything Else You Never Wanted to Play"?

I'd totally play as Michael Jackson...

I feel like a total idiot for wasting money on buying a Wii over a PS3. I mean with the selection of games out and what is yet to come, it just isn't worth it in my opinion. For a lot of the games that might be worth playing, you could play those on other console systems.

One other factor of my renewed interests in the PS3 lie simply on the shoulders of a certain game called Disgaea 3...

I think I shall make a simple, yet very truth statement before I go. It's gonna be a very, very, very long month of September.
