Guitar Hero 2 and Movies... Aaah, the Perfect Weekend
I spent the whole weekend in Atlanta playing
Guitar Hero 2... and yes, it was awesome! For those of you who don't know what that is, it's a game for Playstation 2. It's basicaly like guitar karaoke. It just came out Wednesday and has a lot more games than the first one and you can do multi-player with one person playing lead, the other bass. I spent the whole weekend opening up levels/songs. I think I've found the new love of my life.
When I did break away from my virtual rockstar life, I was watching movies. HBO has been playing one of my favorite movies a lot lately -
Prime. It's a fabulous movie, with some really great actors:
Meryl Streep,
Uma Thurman,
Bryan Greenberg. If you have time, you should definitely check it out. I also made it to see
Babel. That was a really amazing movie. The movie had a lot of layers, but I found that it was mostly about the breakdown of communication between people and cultures. Every actor in the movie was great. And one of my favorite actors,
Gael Garcia Bernal, is in it. His part is smaller, but he is complete and really delivers.
So, I watched great movies and played
Guitar Hero 2... you'd think I've used up all my luck, but no! I came to work today and got to play the new Nintendo Wii, which doesn't come out until next Monday.
On my daily show,
Attack of the Show, we played the Wii game that comes with the console. It has a lot of different sports games and today I got to do the boxing. It was so much fun. It comes with two sensor controllers: joystick and nunchuck. The game is really user-friendly and you can even design yourself on the game... mine has hazel eyes, long black hair and freckles.
This Friday, Nov. 17,
Attack of the Show is doing a two-hour Playstation 3 special. We'll have all the latest news and be playing games on the console live!
I'm so tired, so I gotta get to bed... I'll let you know how this week turns out for me in my next blog... Until then, goodnight!
