Frank and I play a lot of video games together. He’s my go to friend for online gaming, especially on the Xbox 360. This time of the year is one where a lot of AAA titles comes out. This year is no different. So with all of these games to choose from Frank and I have devised a game plan for the rest of this season. Here it is:

My Current Games: Fallout 3, Gears of War 2, Civilization Revolution, and Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune

I just beat Fallout 3 last night. So that’s out of the way. Frank’s plan is we finish Gears of War 2 while throwing in matches of Civilization and Left 4 Dead (which comes out on Nov. 17th). Then for Christmas we both ask for Call of Duty: World at War and hopefully I’ll get Fable 2 as well. Then the Christmas season will be spent playing Call of Duty: World at War and Fable. So while all of this is going on we’re going to keep our eyes open for a deal on Tom Clancy’s End War. So once that’s on the cheap we’ll go for that.

So there you go thats the Game Plan for the rest of 2008. If you wanna join in, let me know and I’ll add you on Xbox Live.

So now that we all know BLOGS ARE DEAD and that bullshit like Twitter are the Future. I have this internal debate on what SeanPiotrowski.net will be in the future. I honestly don’t see any of these new platforms working for me. Outside of a weekly video podcast or videolog, the written form is the easiest and most convenient for me. So don’t worry things will stay the same. With that debate I decided its time for another new look. I think we’re now on our 3rd look since the move to WordPress. Anyway this new layout is the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. I only hope future WordPress themes get to be this feature filled. If only I had the knowledge to code my own SUPER THEME! I also find it to be a fitting theme for me being that I love Windows Vista and not many people do. Vista needs all the fans it can get! It deserves them! After all I’m not a Mac user I just play one on TV (work). So enjoy my new theme which I call Microsoft Windows Vista: SeanPiotrowski Edition!

For those of you keeping track I’ll be 27 on Sunday. 27.

P.S. I’m officially a college professor.

This is the “follow up” commercial to the ‘Mad World’ ad from Gears of War 1. This one is called ‘Last Day’ and is for Gears of War 2. I think its just as good as ‘Mad World’ but its missing that little something ‘Mad World’ had. I don’t know what that is exactly…

As you all know I am not voting for McCain & I’m not voting for Obama. I saw this contest and thought it would be an interesting execerise for me in my ability to gauge the country. Let’s see how right I am.
