I got most of my Christmas shopping done yesterday. I'm splurging this year :) yay-hoo, I say! I just gotta get a couple things for Mom, something for Adam and Jamie, and a bow for Peyton's present. I'm actually excited about Christmas this year.
Normally I hate Christmas. It's stressful and annoying, what with the music and... numerous other things. Let's just put it this way; I'm a Halloween kinda person.
On a completely different note, I finished Fable III about a week ago. Totally loved it and it has definite re-play value! And the Sims 3 is awesome, though I wish it had two players :(. Also, I wish it had easier controls. Like its parent, the Sims 2.
OOO! Donkey Kong Country Returns! Yay! Totally wicked, that is. Steph and I completed it the day before yesterday; though we have tons of secrets to find so we can unlock the Golden Temple. There is supposedly a banana inside that takes you to alternate universes or something like that. Anyhoo, I'm a fan of the originals for the SNES, so when I read about this puppy I was super excited! Bought it on Nov. 21st.
There is supposed to be a remake of Goldeneye out as well, and I want it. Heh. Though, it'll definitely need to wait till after Christmas.
Just like the Nintendo 3DS. Ooo. It apparently plays 3D games, like, you know, the images pop out. It's gonna have Resident Evil Mercenaries on it, so I'm getting it even if it kills me. Haha!

Resident Evil
Woot! Resident Evil: Afterlife opens on Sept. 10th and I'm going whether or not I'm living in a cardboard box. I'm not going on opening day, that'd be stupid, but I'm going nonetheless.
I've been following all manner of Resident Evil (except comics, although I would if I knew where to go) since I was twelve, and I am so super excited to see that my favorite character is FINALLY going to be in the movie; Chris Redfield (insert squealing here).
Cause I feel like it, I'll note what I've got in my collection: Three official game guides( one of which is the RE5 collector's limited edition), all of the novelizations of the games and the movies, the RE5 limited edition red Xbox 360, three copies of RE5, three copies of RE4, RE1, two copies RE1 (2002 Remake), two copies RE0, two copies RE2, RE3, RE: Code Veronica, RE: Umbrella Chronicles, RE: Darkside Chronicles.
Now, the reason I have multiple copies of the RE4, is because they have differences between platforms. I can't remember, I might have a fourth copy just cause it was on a different console :D. All the rest of the multiple copies are on different consoles. (Proud to say I have RE2 on the Nintendo 64!) As for RE5? I bought it on the day it came out. Then a few days later I found out that it had the red Xbox which came with another copy.
And then I found the limited edition in a used store with all the extras in it: a necklace of Kijuju, a Tricell messenger bag, a BSAA patch and a Chris Redfield figurine (he's about four inches tall?). Which brings me to three action figures, who are are much bigger than he is: another Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine (RE1 GameCube) and Zealot (RE4).
Oh, yeah. And the movies. I own two copies of each movie, including Degeneration. The first one because the second edition came out with more special features and the other two because I lost my first two copies somewhere in the house, lol. As for Degeneration, the first copy I bought 'cause I wanted the movie. The second 'cause we went to Wal-mart and saw it came with a t-shirt. It makes me sad, though, because I don't know where my beloved t-shirt is. :(
Until I reread this I didn't realise how much of a Resident Evil Retard I was. I've invented a term. I'm a RE-RE. Haha. And I will forever be one.

ooooo
Man, today I am soooooooo tired. I had a good ten hours on my Xbox and PS3 last night :D. Silent Hill: Homecoming and Resident Evil 5, respectively. But believe it or not, that is not why I am tired.
So, I went to bed at 1:36 AM (that's actually normal for me). I was dreaming that I was Alex (the guy from Silent Hill) fighting this mutated monster and it just wouldn't die. To my left, Chris (one of the characters from Resident Evil) is telling me we should run and I'm totally agreeing with him. But there's this nagging voice, my real voice, not Alex's, in my head telling me all sorts of logical reasons why this monster cannot be real and that I shouldn't be afraid. But me and Chris, we just turn tail and run.
We're running for our lives and while we're racing down the foggy streets, I realise that there's these little white things falling from the sky and that it's not ash anymore - and it's not snow. (In Silent Hill it rains ash.)
Chris points out its raining pills!
"What?" I say in disbelief. Then I see a small bottle on the sidewalk. The monster lets out a screech, but that doesn't stop me from stopping to pick it up.
Then, I awake.
I'd forgotten to take my pills and poor Alex gets to die because of it. I woke myself up at 3:22 AM because I forgot to take them. And that is why I am tired.
