So, it's been more than a while since I've updated... It seems to be the cool thing to do so I have to follow suit. Recent happenings:
1) Got promoted at work. I'm now in a salary position. Yay me.
2) Bought an X-Box in anticipation of Halo 2. The reason I bought it so early was because my wife loves to play Dead Or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball. I also wanted to give Ninja Gaiden a go since it looked so good. I think within 48 hours, I bought the X-Box and 8 games. I then afterwards bought a 2/3-pack game. Here's the rundown:
1]Amped 2
2]Dead Or Alive 3
3]Dead Or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball
4]Jet Set Radio Future
5]Ninja Gaiden
6]The Sims
7]Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic
8]The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
9]Star Wars Clone Wars/Tetris Worlds (w/ Mech Assult?)
The Mech Assult is X-Box Live only, and I haven't signed up yet. So I don't know how much of the game is on the disc.
If you're wondering how I could go from nothing to 9 so quickly, here goes.
I bought the system with a blue controller and the Platinum Hit SW:KotOR ($150 + $30 + $20). I had to have at least one game and DOAX wasn't in stock at Best Buy. The next morning we went to Wal-mart to get some groceries and I saw Morrowind as a Platinum Hit. I had heard good things, so I picked that up ($20). I now had 2 RPGs, but my wife didn't have anything. The next day we went to check Best Buy again and I bought The Sims ($20), which is a game both the wife and myself enjoy. It was only $20 and if we couldn't find DOAX she's still have something to play. We then hopped across the street to GameStop. They were having a Buy 2 get 1 free sale and I went nuts. I bought Ninja Gaiden and DOAX ($45 + $25) and got Amped 2 for free (instead of $18). I also bought an anime DVD (Azumanga Daioh $12) and DOA3 ($18) and got JSRF for free (instead of $8). Since I was spending $100, I bought a $10 card that gives me 10% off (so that was free) for 10-months. So, $160 and 8 Games later, I was 'content' with what I had. I didn't have X-Box Live nor did I own many games that used it (Amped, Gaiden, and KotOR do). At Half Price Books I saw the Star Wars/Tetris combo for $15 so I snatched that up. I didn't really want either game, but having more stuff for Live when I got it would be nice.

So, yay for blowing money. And earning more!
