I realize this isn’t going to be as exciting as a man-party, but I finished a very serious part of Midnight Club II tonight. With one hour yesterday and three hours, I finally finished Paris. Keep in mind this was a total of four hours on one fucking race. I’ve now moved onto Toyko and I couldn’t be happier. I couldn’t have done it all with the help of my roommates: “Sexy Hair” Mike Rubenstein, “The Outlaw” Marty Souza, and EJ “The Italian Tank” Marzano. They were cheering me on the entire three hours tonight. A couple notes:
- Fripon X is your car of choice in Paris
- Handling is often more important than top speed
- Save your NOS
- If frustrated (which you will be), the cheat code for missiles on your car is “savethekids”. Remember to take out your mem card while releasing your anger.

Lastly, a couple of my roommates deserve some honorable mention for their commitment to Summer Games.
- Stephen’s taken a very serious approach to start and finish HALO this week. He’s two days in and in his words “making those aliens his bitch”.
- EJ’s hopped on the Gran Turismo train, and he’s running with it. He’s just bought some new tires, and soon Snoop’s gonna be riding with him.
- Sexy Hair already took car of MechAssualt on the Xbox, and it gets a decent thumbs up from him.

Ps. Half-life is $20 at Compusa, so when you lose your friend’s copy, you can go pick up a new one.
