So I have a birthday coming up and I don’t have a next-gen console.
I own a Dreamcast, PS2, and PSP and my household also has an NES, SNES, and N64.
My couple-year-old HDTV is aching for some more HD goodness and I must do what my electronic devices ‘want’.
The TV talking to me while I sleep, and the constant barrage of GTA IV ads and discussion made me anxious about someone ruining a plot point. So, much like I went to see Iron-Man this weekend, I was forced by my fears of ‘spoilers’ to buy a 360.
Today I saw that Amazon had a deal where you get $30 off when you buy a console and the game at the same time. That and a trial for Amazon Prime got the price way down even with 1 day shipping.
All these factors and what fields like the world were telling me to buy it, so I finally did.
So I sit here… waiting… how many hours will it take? Come on shipping company… be fast!
