Moving on up possibly?

Yeah in a way, I am. I was talking to a guy who seems like he has a pretty good deal on a 96 Toyota, only wants $2,000, and it books for $3500. I'm going to look around, but there's a good chance I'm going to look into buying it from him.

I beat the piss out of Command and Conquer: Generals. Beat all the missions with USA, China, and the GLA (terrorists). I played a bunch of matches in skirmish mode too, which is like multiplayer, but with the computer. Hopefully my friend Ron can get his shit together and we can play against each other online.

Speaking of video games, I plan on returning to my roots and I'm going to explore opening up a game review site again. Unlike last time, where I more or less went it on my own and then picked up a few reviewers on the way, and tried to copy the style of IGN/Gamespot, I'm taking a different approach.

First, I'm not going to start a site unless I get enough help. That means finding someone skilled in PHP, and numerous game reviewers.

Second, I'm not going to try and copy the style of IGN, because quite frankly I dont have the budget of IGN. Requiring 900 word plus reviews is too much on people who are just doing this for a hobby. So I'm going to have three people give their opinions on the game (probably like 400-500 word reviews each). Then the three review scores would be averaged to produce a score. I get so sick of the fanboys on IGN that review stuff and give ridiculously high scores, like 9.8 for Halo 2, and 9.9 for GTA: San Andreas.

I got the idea for this format watching G4tv.com the show. The two girls and the guy were arguing over Star Fox Assault, the one loved it, the guy hated it, and the other chick was indifferent. It should be like that, things should balance out.

Anyhow, if you play a lot of video games, and like to write, or know PHP, let me know. I know a lot of basic html, as well as some design stuff, and I'm a pretty good writer, so this is definately a project I'd like to start up if there's interest.
