I’m not sure what to think of this. Again, walking through the bookstore in the manga section and I see the title “Absolute Boyfriend.” It definitely merited picking up and examining. They didn’t have this cover in the bookstore; I found it online. Clearly it’s a shojo manga, and one that I normally would want to criticize and poke fun at. However, upon reading the summary via Wikipedia–I’m ashamed to say I kinda want to read it.  I’ll get back to you guys on this.

Summary (from Wikipedia):  Riiko Izawa has never had a boyfriend and she has been rejected by every boy she has ever had a crush on. When she returns a lost cell phone to an oddly dressed salesman, she mentions wanting a boyfriend so to thank her, he directs her to his company’s website. When she visits the site, Riiko finds it’s a site to create your own lover. Thinking its a game, she customizes and accidentally orders one. The next day, her new lover arrives. Following the instruction manual, she kisses him to wake him up and configure him to be in love with only her. She names him “Night.” Three days later, she is shocked to learn that she only had him for a free trial. The salesman, Gaku Namikiri, tells her that she must now pay 100,000,000 yen for Night, or they will waive the fee if she helps them to collect data about how women think and feel to help perfect future models.

 I recently come into purchasing a Playstation 3.  After my short experience with a PS3, I can say this one statement…ahem…FUCK YOU SONY!  I can’t play the majority of games out for the damn thing cause all the games on the system run at 720p and my TV maxes at 1080i.  I am perfectly ok with that considering I get a 60 FPS max.  So yeah, thats that.

So, the only games I CAN play are MGS4, which I haven’t played yet, and GT5, which is OMFGAmazing.  I bought a nice racing wheel for the game and have never had a better experience with the GT series. Gran Turismo 5 Proglogue is THE best racing game experience.  There is no way to beat it EVER.  Forza 2 is crap, and PGR gives me the other side of racing I need.

The cars handle spot-on to life.  The cars I’ve drivin so far are are the RX8 (driven one in RL), a Honda Integra, a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX and X, Nissan GTR, and a Corvette.  The best car so far is the EVO X.  I must say that I was really dissapointed with the GTR.  It drives like a brick on wheels.

Overall, I’m very pleased with the game, and cannot WAIT till the full version of the game comes out.   The full release will have the Top Gear Test Track on it.   I’m really curious as to how the times measure up.
