Welcome To The Analog Stick

Hey guys, I'm Matt and I'd like to welcome you to my new blog called 'The Analog Stick'. I'm planning on writing mainly about video games (and nerdy tech stuff too, because I can be omgsupernerdy on occasion, just give me some computer parts and you'll see :D), along with a little bit of music and movies and "whatever" thrown in for fun, and I'm sure your question is "why exactly would I come here and read your silly opinion instead of going to some place like Gamespot where everything's organized?!" Well, because I'm amazing obviously ;)

Sarcasm aside (you'll learn that I pretend to have a big head a lot :D), I guess you should just come read because I'll put an honest opinion into everything I write, and even though I'll be sure to write well, it won't be completely "must be totally professional"-ish (or as I like to call it, "I'm a writing robot, watch me go!" writing), because I know reading that stuff gets pretty boring after a while. And I'll be mixing it up instead of just doing reviews, just doing news, just doing games, just doing music, it'll be a big huge mishmash :D

As for what games I play, I'm pretty much into everything EXCEPT fighting games, 'cause their repetitiveness gets on my nerves most of the time. And I do have all 3 current consoles (Wii, 360, and PS3) along with both portables and a brand new gaming PC, so I'll talk about all of them, including which one I think is the best (*cough*notthe360*cough*), but that's for another post a little bit later :)

Musicwise, I like a bit of everything aside from death metal, commercial-samey rock bands (like Nickelback) and commercial rap, but my favorites definitely lie in the soft rock/acoustic/alternative area. As in, my favorite band is Coldplay (not afraid to admit it, laugh all you want) but I love the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Keane too. And movies, I'm into everything too.. except shitty movies ( ;) ). 

You know.. I just had a moment of realization looking at this post, that I like pretty much everything.. Huh. That's really weird..

But anyway, before I get off into a really random rant, I'll leave you with this to ponder:

A cookie in the hand is worth more than one in the drawer.

(Whatever the hell that means! If you get anything out of that, please, tell me what in the comments, because I'd really love to know haha.)

Anyone who's reading, hope to see you back soon, I'll try to keep it interesting and stuffs. 

:-)
