Kurt Russel as Snake Plissken from 1981's Escape From New York, MGS3's Big Boss, and Pliskin (Snake) from MGS2.
1987's Metal Gear Cover & Kyle Reese in 1984's The Terminator.
This is comon knowledge among most Metal Gear fans but you can clearly see where Kojima came up with the inspiration for Big Boss & Snake. Even the name Big Boss is a reference Bluce Lee's first major film, The Big Boss.
By the Gods... This game is, by far, the most EPIC game I've ever played.
This is the reason I play video games!
If you own a PS3 and are wondering whether you should buy it, YOU SHOULD. If you've ran out of money since you bought one or two of the other amazing titles that have came out recently... then sell your a one of your organs and buy this game now! Even if you don't own a PS3, go steal one and buy this game! If you've played either of the first games in the series you know what your getting into, but God Of War 3 IS THE BEST IN THE SERIES.
I have to give major props to the team at Santa Montica Studios for making this game the perfect end to the God Of War Trilogy. If I could give this game an 11 Out Of 10, I would.
God Of War 3 Spoiler Ahead: There are boss battles which are larger and more epic then those in Shadow Of The Colossus.

Well, I planned to take the 2 hour journey to Toronto, but I took a wrong turn, got a bit lost, and ended up in Mississauga. Luckily there was a Best Buy there that was having a midnight launch event and I was #1 in line! I waited for about 3 hours and loads of people ended up showing up.
Here's what I ended up getting!
(Link Removed, but it was a God Of War T-Shirt, God Of War 3, and a download code box)
Peace out people! I'm off to play some God Of War 3!!!
-Dave
I've decided to take the long 2 hour journey to Toronto to wait and pick up my copy of God Of War III at 12:01 A.M Eastern Standard Time! The first 100 people get a God Of War 3 T-shirt :D.
Man, I'm so excited, but it's gonna be cold!
Peace OUT!! -Dave

I'm good at Megaman, but I've never beat a Megaman game without taking damage!
I consider myself to be overall a pretty nice guy. That may be my biggest flaw. There are have been two on-going problems in my life that I can't seem to find a solution to. I would really apprieate it if you fine people could help me.
PROBLEM #1. CAREER CHOICES
Who know's what when they grow up? Not I. Well I'm grown up now and I still can't decide.
What I do know is that I want a career which lets me do something different each day.
Here are my interests:
Some Career choices I've been considering are:
Whenever I turn to my friends or family for advice they always end up saying "It's up to you." What I'd like from you readers is to tell me...
Which career choice out of those 5 do you think would be best?
OR
Suggest another career that you'd think I'd be interested in
THE GAMES I'VE BEEN GAMING
Most recently I've been playing a lot of Grand Theft Auto IV. About a year ago I said I hated this game. I decided to give it a good second chance, the same way I did with Fallout 3 and well.. It's not half-bad. Not a 10 out of 10 imo, but a good game overall.
Dante's Inferno was another one I've been gaming as of recent days. Dispite it's 6.5 review score from Gamespot, it's actually a very polished, well-made action adventure game. It steals so many things from the God Of War series but does some things better as well.
WHAT I'M EXCITED FOR...
Heavy Rain - Feburary 23th
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - March 2nd
Final Fantasy XIII- March 9th
Megaman 10 - March 11th (for PSN)
God Of War 3 March 16th
TROPHY COUNT
What??? It's over 9000!!!! Naww, actually I got the God Of War 2 Platinum and surpased 1K trophies!
Peace Out

I just got back from seeing The Book Of Eli and it is the best movie I've seen all year! We're only 19 days into the year, but still!!!
The story takes place in an American post-apoctolyptic wasteland following the path with a lone wanderer who is played by Denzel Washington (One of my favourite actors). To be honest, the story is basically Fallout 3 in movie form.
There were a few parts near the end that had me pretty choked up.. I was actually holding back my tears and not many movies can do this to me. After it was finished I was glued to my seat I didn't want it to end! I will see it again in theatres if I get the chance but I'm most definitely buying this when it comes out on Blu-Ray & DVD.
I urge everyone reading this to watch this movie!

"Thanks" to everyone who comments in my blogs!
I don't blog too often but It's always fun to hear what everyone has to say, whether it be good or bad.
On a side note, I've been playing Darksiders and it's effing awesome! The art$tyle makes it look like a Sunday morning cartoon but don't let that put you off because it's basically a badass version of Zelda.

During 2009 I bought many new & awesome things... these include games, a computer, a used car, and a new high definition television ;). Here's some of the games and such that I purchased last year...
Here's my baby. I picked her up this Christmas :D.
It's a 32" Samsung 60 Hz 1080p HD TV:
Some links to the rest:
PS3 Games In 2009, I put my PS3 through some heavy usage. Planning to do the same thing this year.
Wii Games I left New Super Mario Bros Wii and Boom Blox Bash Party at my cousin's place this Christmas so they're not in the pic.
Consoles I dug my SNES out of bottom of the closet for this epic photo :D
Handhelds Yes, I did buy a PSP Go for 250 dollars; I must be mental right? :?. It was kind of an impulse buy, but I have been putting it to good use!
PS2 & PS1 Games Metal Gear Solid is probably my favourite series ever. (Besides Zelda :P)
GC Games Killer7 was totally kickass.
Cause it's my birthday and I'm 22 today! :D
Damn, I'm getting old... lol.
