Former Prime Minister of Rhodesia, Ian Smith, has died in Cape Town of an unknown illness. My family is Rhodesian, so that's why I'm mentioning this.

I've gotten xbox live, so if anyone wants to play, my gamertag is PATSTER CHIEF. I usually pay Halo 3, Rainbow Six: Vegas, and Burnout Revenge. If you're live, tell me and I'll post your gamertag on the group page.

Well, it's been a solid week since the fight was finished so to speak. I stood in line last monday night to get my pre-ordered legendary edition of Halo 3 before the lazy people, and I must say, it's a phenominally awesome game. I started playing it as soon as I woke up the next day, and didn't quit until I beat it some few hours later. I'm happy with the game overall, but was a bit annoyed to see a return of the flood. Oh well, what would Halo be without the flood? Hm...did you ever notice they never show the flood in the trailers or initial marketing of all 3 Halo titles? I guess they don't want fans to know beforehand of the horrors they're about to face. Anyways, If you've got the means, pick up a copy of Halo 3 and enjoy it. You might even be able to still find a legendary edition like Me, unless you live in Britain. As for me, I'm off to finish the fight - again. ;)
