nerd

Yes, I made it back from Japan just fine. It was amazing. Pics are coming soon, I promise. As soon as I get the shots from my fellow travellers, I'll assemble a fully commented photo album. But they're being slow in delivering, so I may have to whoop their asses to get the shots.

I just have to say, I may be the biggest nerd ever. I'm sitting here watching the live footage of the Xbox 360 launch on G4 tv. I played some of the launch titles in Japan, before it was released, and I wasn't really into them that much (their launch titles aren't their A game for sure. Give it a few months.) , but I want it anyway! All the online gaming options, the King Kong game, the ability to compare scores from single player games.... networked Joust for crying out loud. It just looks so cool. And man, a new console. I've owned nearly every console ever released, and it just screams to be acquired.

These poor nerds are sitting in the rain at Best Buys all around the country. I feel like such a sellout sitting and watching them from home instead of participating. I should probably be out there with my bretheren. I'm getting old.

Time to go watch my downloaded copy of Final Fantasy VII : Advent Children and nerd out some more.
