Got a case of the blah's

Football wise, it was a pretty good weekend, going about as I had expected.  Notre Dame losing is always a good thing.   Next weekend is a big one.  Arkansas concerns me, but I feel a little bit better after watching them against UGA this weekend.

Gaming-wise, it's been a pretty shitty weekend.  It started off with the Move fiasco.  I did some achievement whoring in Reach last night, and that was okay.  Today, I upgraded my PS3 60GB drive to a 320GB drive.  That went well, with all of the time being spent on backing up and restoring my data. I decided to finally play the God of War Collection.  Got through some of it, and then came upon this part where I had to walk on some beams.  I couldn't do it.  Oddly, I think this same section is the part that finally turned me off of PS2 gaming way back when.  In any event, I died an awful lot, got some bullshit trophy about getting my ass kicked and threw my controller in disgust.  Ahem, I wasn't getting my ass kicked when I was playing the game, I got my ass kicked on a bullshit design choice that prohibited me from playing the damn game (gaming pet peeve #4).  Then I popped in Heavy Rain to see if the Move controls were enabled, and it didn't seem like it.  So, I went back to God of War, and I guess it doesn't save automatically.  So, I'm done with that.

Decided to make my PS3 HDD into a portable drive, but it seems there's some proprietary file format, and now, I have to futz around with it to format it to NTFS or FAT32.  Why must I have to jump through hoops to do a simple format?  Irritating.

Decided to play some Reach SP campaign.  It was okay, but I'm just in a very "meh" mood, so little things were getting under my skin way too much.  Finally, I got to this spot on the 5th mission where it's just me against 2 hunters, and kept getting my ass handed to me.  Guess I shouldn't have blown up that wraith.  Oh well, I'm just not in the mood to play with underpowered weapons against overpowered enemies with a sixth sense who turn around whenever I can get behind them for a nanosecond right now .  I feel like I need to get my groove back, but looking at my game collection, there's nothing jumping out and saying "For a good time, call on me".  I've got a decent number of games.  However, like cable TV, sometimes, even with hundreds of channels, there's just nothing good on.  Gotta get out of this little funk of mine.
