IT R CHRISTMAS w00t. K, so I got a Radeon 9500, softmodded it correctly to a 9700 :) Now I need to overclock...bwahahaha. Got some other stuff too but I didn't ask for anything but the 9500, so I won't mention it. I'm off to enjoying my amazing card.

My Galaxies subscription ran out two days ago, I lived by keeping the game open until my video card overheated. I'm gonna let my computer rest a bit. Hopefully I can get another gamecard today...29.99 and I have about 22 bucks on me, sheesh.

Galaxies finally has its first Jedi. As of November 7th, 2003, almost five months after the game's release, someone became force sensitive and is working up the Jedi tree.

I finally beat Jedi Academy today. I still need to beat the Dark Side of the storyline but I hear it isn't much different. The game itself is pretty good, however the storyline just isn't very deep. The story could have been a lot better but because you're playing a third person Jedi character, you're barely scratching the surface of things that happened in the past to Kyle Katarn and Luke Skywalker, which you have to investigate a lot of things that happened to them. It smells. Overall, saber combat, the enemies, and level design is pretty good but I really miss the fluent storyline of Kyle and Jan back from Dark Forces, Jedi Knight, and Jedi Outcast. I hope Jedi Knight 3 comes out with Kyle as the main character again, I miss playing as him. GameSpot gives Jedi Academy an 8.4/10.

I don't know if any of you have ever been to Maddox's site, but his latest hatemail is hillarious, check it out. Apparently some people are just plain stupid.

Anyway, KOTOR is the Xbox RPG that is now on the PC...yay.

Wow, I never would have thought it to be true although I've always hoped for this. The DVD release of the original Star Wars trilogy is now rumored to release in late 2004.

As the quote says... "I'm not sure I want to share too much more just yet on Episode III, but I can tell you this. There's plenty of work right now on Star Wars. Yes, Episode III, but have you heard about this? I heard from my friend that the Classic Trilogy DVDs will be availabe next Fall. The exact date isn't known yet, but they are being worked on right now for release in 2004. "

Interesting, eh? Whoohoo...

Well, in the MMORPG (Massivley Multiplayer Online RPG) that I've been playing quite often the past few months, Star Wars Galaxies, no one has unlocked their 'Force sensitive' character slot yet, even with all the people playing nonstop and much more than I do. The developers finally are giving out small hints with 'holocrons' that drop from certain NPCs (non-player characters) and so about one-third of the entire population in the Galaxy is hunting for these things...geeze.

In other words, nothing has really happened recently. I'm going to post here more, especially if people would remind me, heh.

a guy i know just IMed me asking if I had a Live Journal but i don't, i told him I have a slashdot journal...and I'm proud of it, although I never write in it.

school is finally out, i'm so happy, so very happy...yeah. knewter.org is starting to develop now, the plans have pretty much come together and all that is left is to complete the entire site's layout, which josh will be doing, and i'm currently in the process of looking for good writers with Xboxes or PlayStation 2's...most of my friends have top notch PC's and\or GameCube's.

this is my first time writing in the journal here at slashdot. i might just use this as i've been looking for a good journal site...and slashdot owns. today's boring. nothing happened. i'll have to think up stuff to say in my future journal posts...
