I hate this feeling, but I love it all the same — the feeling that you just can’t wait anymore. I think every fanboy has experienced it at least once in his lifetime. Whether it be a highly anticipated movie release, a video game that has been years in the making, or a comic book that promises to change the comic world, we have all had that feeling that the long wait we have suffered is finally coming to an end. I liken my feeling of anticipation to that of the first time I remember going to Disneyland ... kind of coincidental the thing I am waiting for now is literally right across the street from Disneyland. Tonight is the eve of the 2010 Anaheim Comic Con. I know: it's pathetic getting all worked up and giddy for something as routine as a con. I attend this type of thing at least four or five times a year. Yet I find myself sitting here filled to the brim with anticipation. Maybe it's because this is the first time I am attending a con with so much riding on my shoulders. Not just mine, but everyone from NfamousGamers.com who will be there with me. I don’t know how they feel, but for me, I live off this pressure. This feeling of being at the edge and about to take that jump is what moves me, what motivates me to do better and want more. I am expecting a lot, but I know I must quell my own expectations, because I know to hit everything I want is an impossibility. I can only do so much. We can only do so much. But I have to push myself, or I will settle for mediocrity; and if you know me at all, you know that is something I find hard to accept. I can live with not finishing everything but only after giving it my all. If I don't try for it all and just accept it as is ... well, that just wouldn’t be me. I would be lying to myself. So I sit here, going over every last detail in my mind, wondering if I, if we, can pull it off. Can we get to everything we are expecting? Can we meet at least half of those high goals I have set for us? Will it be too much? We can, we will, and no. Those are the answers to those questions, because I have to believe we will be there giving 100 percent. It’s quite funny actually. If I am giving this much of myself to a small event — and by small, I mean in comparison — as the Anaheim Comic Con, what am I expecting of myself and my fellow staff and admins when we get to events like San Diego Comic Con, Anime Expo, and E3? I am not even running the show at these events. I am there in support of everyone from NfamousGamers. I want to do my best because I want to make it a success for us all. OK. That is enough ranting for the night. I hope I didn’t bore you all with what I was spewing up there. I know I put unneeded pressure on myself. That is just the way I am. Anyway, I hope to see you at the con. If you see me, or anyone else from the site, stop by and say hi. We are never too busy for courtesies.

I am always on my 360 with
I am always on my 360 with loads of games to play yet so little time my gamertage is thenickmeister and I am always aiming to get more and more gamerscore. If you want an honest opinion on things I am the one to follow.
So as a fan of both guitar
So as a fan of both guitar hero and rockband no doubt I would end up playing both warriors of rock as well as rockband 3. I will not lie and admit I do prefer rockband although I loved the first 2 guitar heroes after that it seemed to go down hill. I can play expert guitar and hard on all other instruments but this last guitar hero made me feel like I was just shaking the fret bar and hitting random colors. In other words the charting was horrible! I did enjoy its new warrior characters and the way you can customize your character with some warrior gear and the tracks were pretty okay. If the charting was done better couldve been a better game but on a scale of 1 to 10 I give guitar hero a 6 and thats me being nice. Rockband though impressed me greatly. I had received an early copy and played it for hours on end. At first I was confused on where to go for career because the new menu system. After I figured it out I enjoyed the cutscenes from just naming your band to being passed out from "rocking" too hard. It also has a variety of tracks from classics from Ozzy and more all the way to Bob Marley offering something for everyone. It also uses a new drop in drop out system during and inbetween songs so you do not need to quit the set anymore to add a friend. They also made it so if your doing a set you can change difficulty without starting all over. Rockband 3 has made a large amount of improvements and I really couldn't find anything I disliked really except the lack of creativity with made characters but overall it is a must buy for the music game fans. Rockband 3 for those who do like music games will easily see this as a 10 for a music game and with content added weekly the variety of songs never end.
