Alright, been a busy month. First the Metal Gear Online beta, then CoD4 maps, and finally I’m working my way through GTA4. I’m at 45% thus far – will report back. ;)

Got the Dualshock 3 last night. Finally have a PS3 controller that doesn’t feel like I could break it at any second! Good stuff, if only CoD4 would incorporate rumble into the PS3 game . . . Oh well, Metal Gear Online is two days away! Rumblage to the max.

I’ve been listening to a lot of Death Cab for Cutie’s 2001 album The Photo Album. It’s been on repeat for the better part of a month now, I think. I can’t wait for Narrow Stairs to release.

Yesterday I received a nice surprise in the mail – my preordered Metal Gear Solid 4 was supposed to come with a DVD including the entire history of the MGS games and a beta code for Metal Gear Online, which I didn’t think was coming since I preordered it via Gamestop online. I was afraid it wasn’t coming so I did fill out the web form to receive a beta invite and was lucky enough to be accepted into that – so I gave away my second code. The DVD was actually pretty neat and was more structured than I could have hoped for. The end credits also tied the game’s story into several aspects of political history. It was very cool. As extremely excited for the game as I am now, I also can’t wait until Friday when the postponed beta should hopefully start, provided their are no further obsticles.
