Welcome to die!

First thing parents told me when I got home: presents. They want to get me a new car for my Xmas/birthday. My ten year old bro is getting a PS3. Last year, he got an iPod Touch for Christmas. Yes, he was just 9 years old. Kids these days..

Finally time for break. One freaking month off.

Edit: Then again, I got a PS2 plus 4 games for my 10th birthday. It was still $300 just for the console at the time. Guess I shouldn't be talking.

So, just found out I'm also getting a 32 GB, 4th gen. iPad for Christmas. No more problems with outdated iDevices. Very, very excited. The 4th gen. iPad will be the first iDevice that my parents have bought me since my 2nd gen. iPod, 4 years ago. Already have a list of 50-100 games in mind that I can finally play or experience fully once I get my iPad. No more incompatibility!

Good news! Trust me a 4th gen iPad means lag is unheard of and you're getting graphics that often surpass consoles with those retina res assets. Plus an iPad has a much better battery life and is a lot more immersive than an iPhone or iPod

If you haven't yet: Walking Dead should be on your list for the iPad. You'll have zero stuttering (better performance than consoles, in fact) and the game is just...perfect.

I sure as hell hope that's the case. The 4th gen. iPod has been awful for running the latest games since Infinity Blade II (over a year ago). Definitely getting all the WD iAPs as soon as I get my iPad. The first chapter rocks.

My bro (10) was pretty much crying earlier because my parents wouldn't get him a rated M game with his new PS3. Game in question: BLOPS II. The first rated M game in my household was Skyrim, which I bought with my 360 last Christmas, a month before I turned 19..My parents bought a rated M game for the first time as well last Christmas. MW3 was one of my gifts. They've always been good about that. Parents ended up getting my bro the 250GB PS3 bundle that included LEGO Batman, LEGO HP: Years 5-7, and LBP: Karting. Good for them.If only they knew that the ratio of popular console games that were rated M compared to ones rated E/T was 10:1 these days though..

On the bright side, Blu-Ray player! Finally.

The 4th gen. iPod he got last year got its screen cracked beyond belief in the summer. It was so bad that the plastic had been ripped off at many spots. He dropped it 3 times on concrete. He still uses it today though.

Out of the 20 games I bought for my 360 in the past year, only one of them isn't rated M: Rayman Origins. Times have changed since the PS2.
