Prologue

The title makes me sound epic and pretentious, I realize, but this really isn't a full fledged post--so I can't justify giving it a different name. You know. Like Grand Turismo 5: Prologue--except--my next post won't take a year to come out. And this doesn't cost $40.

No, I am sorry GT5: Prologue, I value my $40. I value my less-than-10-gallons-of-gas (9.7585 using what I paid today--4.099/gallon, or 9.5261 using what I would have to pay tomorrow--4.199/gallon [luckily I topped my tank off, so I won't have to pay that price for a week or two]). I have a few problems paying $40 for a full-featured demo--I have more problems paying $100 for a racing sim (price of GT5: Prologue + GT5). I paid $15 for Forza 2--and that'll last me for some time, thank you.

I didn't mean to get off onto that tangent--that might be something you'll have to live with in the future, though. On to the meat of the matter: My name is Mike. I am one of three people associated with this blog--probably one of two that will actually post. I am a multi-console kind of guy. I own a Nintendo Wii (launch), a Playstation 3 (60GB--bought it last month), and an Xbox 360 (launch Premium [had to send it in for a disc drive error--not a RROD]).

I am, however, a PC gamer above all. I was raised playing on the PC and I do a majority of my gaming on it. I use Windows Vista Ultimate and have had ZERO problems with it so far. I guess my luck with Microsoft is extraordinary.

That's really all I've got right now--an introduction of myself by myself...to you, our various and many adoring readers and fans. (You see--you don't exist yet...but if this ever works out, that sentence will be completely valid. You wait and...potentially...see).
