As some of you know, Kristina & I recently purchased an seXBOX 360 and have been play the crap out of it. I regret not purchasing one earlier. It’s just so neat. Tons of amazing games and features. Finally something from Microsoft that doesn’t make me immediately hate them. Anywho, I was able to get my hands on a Rock Band bundle –which I’ve been lusting after for a while. Two actually. One I plan to sell on EBay to some desperate parent looking to buy their kids love this Xmas. If my scheme works then I should end up with a free Rock Band bundle. I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
So let me start off by saying that Rock Band is not Guitar Hero III. It’s much harder from the get go. When I was drumming I felt like Ruprecht from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels banging his pots and pans. “Not mother??? No Ruprecht, not mother.” Playing the guitar is somewhat harder than Guitar Hero, even on the easy setting. It has two sets of buttons one for high notes and low notes. You can “bend” the notes and it also has a pickup switch, which is cool but useless, unless you’re getting really technical. It’s going to definitely take some time to get used to, but all in all, the game is fantastic and I can’t wait to play with my friends.
On a more serious note. I hate Miami. It took me 7 fucking hours to get from G’sville to Miami. Stopping once for gas and to drop off Kristina. I hate driving down, if my family and friends didn’t live down here I’d never want to come back to this place again. The city itself just puts me in a bad mood. Plus the insane rush we both endure getting all our crap together for one of these trips is draining. Plus I have the trip home to look forward to. W00t another 6-7 hours driving on one of the busiest travel days of the year. Hooray.
