If there is one word that describes Brian Carl it is…well…..patriotic. Okay well that is not true, but I was a patriot this weekend and blew my entire economic stimulus check buying an XBOX. I must say this was a great experience. I purchased GTA IV and Tony Hawk Project 8 along with multiple accessories including a pink controller for the lady. (Yes she did request it, but I probably would have bought it anyway.) I have yet to open Tony Hawk.
I have to say GTA really lived up to the hype behind it. I have barley cracked the surface of the storyline, but there are huge improvements from San Andreas. One of the biggest additions is the stealth moves. You hit a button and hide behind a wall or pole and pop out when you are shooting. Also now you can shoot your front window out of your car and shoot 180 degrees out of the car. No more are the days of just shooting left or right.
The biggest improvement though was the multi-player. There are so many modes in it but the 2 that are my favorite is the plain old death match and the GTA Race. I have to say I expected the deathmatch when they announced that GTA had online, but not the racing. The GTA race is awesome, the last on i played in one of the competitors just left his car and spent the whole time hunting people down and messing them up. The death match is pretty straight forward. shoot to kill.
The other game I am really into on the XBOX is UNO. Call me lame or call me stupid, but man I love playing UNO and for some reason it feels less pathetic if I am playing with other people online, although i know its not.
So in short this weekend I became two things I never saw coming, an XBOX owner and a patriotic American.

you disgust me.
I know it would be disappointing. I considered hiding it, but i knew it would come out soon enough.
so now you can only afford to eat barley after buying your 360?

and i am formally putting a poll on here:
All in favor a brian creating a blog that people can post to, say aye
Want me to make a wiki?
yes. then i get an article too.
I can give you guys passwords to post on the site if that is what you are asking for. That would be easier than making a wiki since that would entail making a whole new site basically.
sounds good… i could post about flowers and beer.
oh and carters mom.
