Blog a Day 38of365: Very nearly forgot..

This is the first day since I started doing the OneaDay thing that I’ve very nearly forgotten to write an entry.

It’s been a pretty lazy day which is why this will be more of a ‘Wot I dun’ teenagery style entry for a change.

I stayed in bed until 1ish. I was awake at 10 but lazed in bed watching Frasier then playing Bayonetta. Bayonetta is completely mental but I’m enjoying it so far.

When I eventually got up, I impulsively wandered off to Gamestation and traded in some old DS games that were lying about. I usually hate trading games in, not least because you always get a pathetic value back for them. However this time round I got £28. Excellent! Can’t remember the last time I had that much to spend in a games shop, especially not guilt free.

After a brief flirtation with possibly purchasing Red Faction: Guerilla, then Okami or Resident Evil 4. I ended up buying a £20 PSN card and saving the £8 for another time when the shop hopefully has Dead Space Extraction in stock.

Got home and queued up Crash Bandicoot 3, Flower and Final Fantasy 8. That was at about 3pm, it’s 11.30pm now and Final Fantasy 8 is still downloading…..cheers PSN.

My brief go of Crash Bandicoot 3 has reminded me that despite its dated graphics, I still love it. I’ve never actually owned it before, always borrowed it from a friend’s little brother (I say little, he’s 22 now!), so it’s nice to have my own copy at long last.

Flower is interesting. Not played it enough to have an opinion yet. Looks like it’ll be a nice, relaxing change of pace though. I figured it was about time I saw it for myself!

Then I spent late afternoon/early evening trying to write my Mass Effect 2 review for GamePeople. It’s done now but it was very difficult to get all my thoughts down in 800ish words. Really could have rambled forever on it.

Throughout the day I kept thinking how I must do my OneaDay shortly. I forgot. Until now where I suddenly realised I still hadn’t done it. World of Warcraft’s minimised in the background desperately waiting for me to return, which is exactly what I’m going to do now. ?
