If you are at all like me, and i suspect someone is, you will use software on systems it wasn’t designed for. I use Irssi for chatting, on windows, due to its supereor functionality to many other clients.

I spent all yesterday playing with the NXE, and I am quite impressed. It isn’t as good as expectations lead it to be, but few things are. All in all, apart from a few networking issues, it was a perfect update. The new features they added make it a faster console to use, and a fun-er console to use.

Gears of War 2 is a great game. Its a sequel to one of the classic games of the Xbox360, a game that filled the hole between Halo 2 and 3 for many people. Gears 2 is very fun, very pretty, and very different than the first one. The new engine makes things look gorgeous, but the multiplayer has fairly large flaws. The campaign is quite fun, and has lots of replay value.

Dead space is a fun game. A fun, gory game. Over the weekend, I rented and played through part of the game. While I did not finish it, I have gotten a good impression of the game.

The game is very entertaining, and, although difficult at times, proves very rewarding.

In the many times delayed Mercenaries 2 update for the Xbox360, 2 of the new playable characters have been revealed. Obama and Palin. While this is very likely official, it comes from G4, which has been known for jokes in the past. But the video clip is too realistic. Also highlighted in the video clip are new locations, new weapons, new vehicles, and new contracts.
