Immersed

I have decided to immerse myself in my newest acquisition for the day since it was not advisable to go out to the mall these days.

The package I bought came with two Sixaxis controllers and two games of my choice. For that I got Genji: Days of the Blade and Virtua Tennis 3 by Sega.

I wanted my PS3 mainly because of Genji. I enjoyed the first game on the PS2, even if it was basically a mindless, button mashing game. It had such addictive replay value (at least for me).

Genji for the PS3 is more of the same, although some finesse playing is required. I have not finished it yet and I'm already becoming addicted.

I chose Virtua Tennis 3 because it's easy to learn and play and with two controllers, it has proven to be good family fun.

With backward compatibility, I could even play the few original PS2 games I have, such as FF10, GT3 and DOA2 (that's Final Fantasy 10, Gran Turismo 3 and Dead or Alive 2)...

Add to that downloadable demo games and trailers and I have enough to keep me busy for a while without buying new stuff just yet. And HD is the kicker. I've never seen such gorgeous games. And I'm grateful I bought this machine. Of course, I may buy a Wii and an Xbox 360 Elite for Christmas...

Of course, I can't be too addicted to these new games because I have a crucial busy week ahead. Well, more work means more stuff I could acquire.

Here's to a productive week ahead for of us despite all that has happened.

Disaster relief, sustainable development & community service

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.
