Regardless of finishing a college course, starting a new job, and a number of irritating distractions, a man can get no peace. I’ve had to already move myself thanks to work commitments and now die familie have decided to move closer to my dad’s workplace.
This isn’t the first time we’ve moved. The first time was two years ago and I lost my internet access due to us moving literally to the middle of nowhere. I don’t want to get internet in my bedsit because I’m only there every second week, and that to me is a waste of money. Especially when I can go halves with my father. Back then, I climbed up the walls looking for some sort of access in the area so I could download The Shivering Isles expansion for the Xbox version of Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. It was woeful.
Without the LIVE connection, the Xbox seems sort of futile to me. I took up playing games on my Playstation 2 again. Not that I’m using the Playstation 2 as a negative – I loved the PS2 and had fun nights on Street Fighter 2. It’s just that the Xbox just feels bare and lifeless without that connectivity to the wired world.
Luckily for me, the folks are moving closer to civilisation so this time the promise of broadband is guaranteed. I don’t have to miss out on those downloads I wanted so badly when when we had to wait a whole year for the internet.
Won’t be online from home for a few weeks mind you. Madness begins.
