Sort of an expanded twitter. They can be about anything, updates in life to code snippets just so I can keep track of where I am at, maybe even just a quote I happen to find interesting. So, where to begin? How about now that 2007 is over and I have absorbed just about everything I think I want too, some stuff I enjoyed Games 3 of them take the cake <ul><li>Halo 3 - do I even need to explain this one? </li><li>BioShock - amazing, deep story, with great gameplay that pulled the whole thing together, and an amazing theme (Choice vs. Free Will). Could not possibly say enough good things about this one. </li><li>Portal - Short, but had a great story, humor, and game play. Looks like a shooter but is probably one of the best puzzle games I have ever played. An original throughout, here's hoping more developers get on the page of the team Valve put together for this one.</li></ul>Runners-up: Super Mario Galaxy, Call of Duty 4 Movies <ul><li>No Country For Old Men - amazing thru and thru. It really conveys 'the west' too, Chigurh is the stuff nightmares are made of</li><li>Juno - It's pretty much impossible not to love this movie, unless you're a soulless robot or something.</li><li>There Will be Blood - The definition of brutal. And not a stupid 'Saw' way, in a way that really digs down deep.</li><li>Transformers - yeah, it's my childhood re-packaged and re-sold to me, but I don't care, GIANT ROBOTS </li></ul>Bitter disappointments: Spider-Man 3 beats out all. I tried to convince myself I liked it, but I just couldn't do it.Joshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17085854505668713495noreply@blogger.com
