Been gone a while again.. but I have been busy doing college work.
Last week was a very stressful end to a project: Details on quintessential-designs.blogspot.co.uk
I am glad it's over now. Not that I didn't enjoy it but it was a bit rushed and I know that all my projects are going to be from now on but I haven't quite gotten used to the pace yet. I'll get there eventually.
So Friday was the September weekend and I enjoyed it alot. 'thisiscarole' and 'spazzyhawk' both came over and we enjoy a PS2 night. We ended up playing Kingdom Hearts to about twelve and then watching anime for another hour after that.
The reason for the PS2 other than the games that are still not avalible on newer consoles is that I don't own a Xbox 360 nor do I own a PS3. For one my mum is not a fan of gaming at all. She doesn't like it and doesn't see the point in it. She tries to talk me out of gaming tendencies at all times saying "but reality is so much better". A bit hypocritical considering just how much time she spends on Facebook playing games on that. Apparently 'they don't count'.
Another is money. Meaning I have no money to spend on a new console nor all the games I need to buy or in some cases rebuy to play on it. *cough*Final Fantasy*cough* I would however like to buy one despite all my reasons against it. I honestly feel like I'm counting the days till my old playstation 2 dies on me and you know what I blame. Game shops. Yes I blame them because the other week I was in a shop seeling games and I saw FFX playing on the screen and I said to the man behind the counter "Oh, I still play that on my PS2" and do you know what he asked me? "Does it still work then?"
Now I know that phones and tablets and consoles do have a lifespan that one day it will just die but I don't want to think about that. I want to imagine that even when I'm old and gray that PS2 will still be working away. I don't want to be reminded of the fact that one day my favourite games will be gone forever.
I am really tempted by the Xbox 360 however I have heard that there is a new console coming out soon and I think I'll wait and see when that comes out as I'm not sure about it especially since it say you can't play Xbox 360 games on it which is a big problem as it will take time to rerelease all those game.
Ahh I'm spilt. Hopefully I'll make up my mind before my PS2 crashes and burns :-)
