Hey everyone, I feel like I need a change of scenery and am now going to be blogging here: http://sean80space.blogspot.com/.

Talk to you all soon, Sean

I know I've said this before and I'm sure I'll say it again, but I really need to stop putting off blog entries for months at a time. I guess time for the quick update as to what's been going on since January: Still working at the new job and loving it. Wow...never thought I would say that about a job but I really do work with some great people. I've been going to see tons of movies as usual. You can see what I've been watching in the theatres in this thread at Tehbias.com. Those guys are always busting my balls about how many movies I see and asked me to keep track. So I obliged them and really, I'm having fun with it. I have been playing some games but nothing until GTAIV was really causing me to lose time in my life. I did play God of War: Chains of Olympus on the PSP and I loved it. It was f'n awesome and I couldn't believe it was a PSP game at times. The controls were so good I couldn't believe it. I'm a huge GOW fan and this definitely lived up to the ...

It's been quite a while since I've done a movie review on here, part of the reason for that of course had been my absence from doing any posts at all. Despite not doing the reviews, I of course kept going to the theatre and saw over 60 movies last year plus a few repeat viewings. I saw Transformers four time. I would have stopped at three but they had to go and bring it back on the IMAX. So this year I'm going to do something a little different. I'm going to have a list on the righthand side of the page right under my Xbox info of all the movies I've seen this year with a rating out of 5 and the date of the initial review. So on with the first one for 2008: There Will be Blood This was quite the movie. I think it's my favourite from P. T. Anderson. While I enjoyed Boogie Nights, Magnolia and Punch Drunk Love, they didn't grab me quite the same way as they did for a lot of other people. Day-Lewis was fantastic as was to be expected but not ...

It's hard to believe that the year is almost over already. A lot has happened this year, both good and bad, but I have very little in the way of regrets and that's the most important thing. I hope everyone else out there had a great year as well. :) Now on to the main topic of this posting, my top choices for a variety of items for the year: Games: For me, my favourite game this year has been Call of Duty 4. No first person shooter has seemed this "complete" to me. Not only is the online some of the most fun I've ever had, but the single player is utterly fucking fantastic. The single player has incredible action and a really good story as well. The scene with the bomb 1/2 way through the game just blew me away and totallly caught me of guard. It had drama to it that you rarely see in most FPSes. Not only that, but the controls are incredible as well. Infinity Ward definitely followed up Call of Duty 2 with one kick ass game. ...

Ok I know it's been a long time since I've done a post and I know that one was after a long break too. I guess I've just been busy with stuff in my life and all the games that have been coming out over the past few months. First things first I guess, I'll cover what's been going on with me personally since I last posted. As of the end of August, I became single again. She got a job offer in Florida and decided to take it. I won't go into all the details around it but everything that went down really sucked but I'm not bitter about it. Life is too short to dwell on things like that. However, the end of August was also the beginning of ICandee and Ruffneck's life together. It was a very beautiful ceremony and an awesome weekend with the gang from Tehbias. I also got to meet Ruffneck's parents who are two of the nicest people and I also got meet some of their friends as well. It was exactly the kind of weekend I needed. One other big change for me ...
