How long has it been since I reached out to that gaming site for a job? I can't remember but it has been a while and it is sad they didn't reach out to me or at least tell me they are not going forward with me. Ironically, this is a non for profit that offers wageless positions - just bloody sad, it is a NYC company after all since NY employers are synonymous and notorious for disregarding potential employees.
Anyway, enough of that because this is not the page to talk about jobs, although the job market is beyond terrible and the unemployment rate - true unemployment rate - is in the double digits, probably 15 to 20 percent. You may be shock or think I am smoking something for saying such a high figure but it is truth. The posted mainstream number is disingenuous because they do not factor in individuals that are out of work more than a year, individuals that stop looking, and other factors. It is a sad prospect but that's America for you with their broken idiotic system - good bless the Occupy protest movement for their efforts.
Um...yeah, so Dark Souls, I almost purchased it at Amazon for almost $27.00, used and that is with shipping included, but it doesn't come with cover art and manual. Many don't care for those trivial things but I do because it is Dark Souls; a game as epic as this deserves to have its full package art, especially for reminiscent after I've beaten the game. I want to look back at my proud collection of games with their packaged contents included instead of having them without. I may wait for a better deal, like $20.00 with all of its contents included and I may buy it new instead of used, because there are times I like to give back to actual developers of the game. I was surprised of how quick the price went down since the game only came out the last quarter of 2011 but these prices stemmed from small entities and individuals instead of the almost monopolized Gamestop store. God, I hate Game Stop...I just hate their business statics and their broken hiring methods.
Anyway, I think I am going to end this abruptly because I am in the mood to play some WarCraft III and 3rd strike online..so later.
Hi guys, the name is akumous -- a gamer -- and this is my blog it is about my one of many passions such as video games. Basically this is centrally my gamer's blog where I will not post about videogames but other geeky material such as anime, comic book films, hardware, and I will occasionally vent about the nonsense that antagonize me about the gaming industry. Although this blog is a work in progress...it is my tool for escapism and fun. Thanks in advance for following my page.
