A deal...

with the devil.  That is what I made 4 months ago.  You see, I decided to wait to get my 360 until GoW came out.  My wife said, we just don't have the money right now but maybe for your birthday.  Then I told her how much everything would cost and the dealing began.  It was finally decided that I would get my 360 & GoW as a joint Birthday and Christmas gift (my birthday is 2 days before Emergence Day).  I would get Gears for my birthday and the 360 for Christmas, great deal huh?  Well, I agreed...what else could I do!  She had me by the short and curlys!  Some of you may say, "grow a set and put your foot down!", but unless you have a band on your left ring finger you can't even begin to understand.  So here it is 11/3 and tonight, after persuading my wife, I took in my Xbox and traded up for the 360.  We went to EB Games so that we could take advantage of their $80 trade in special.  I figured I could reason with my wife, don't try this at home, asking her if I really had to wait since now I have no game system whatsoever in my house.  The answer was not only "no", but now    I have to look at my 360 and, after Wednesday, my copy of GoW until Christmas night.  You heard that right, I can't even play Christmas Day!  We gotta go to the in-laws, whose TV is 20 YEARS OLD!  Whipped you say!?  Loser!?  Nancy Boy!?  You try dealing with my devil and then you can talk!  For now, just pray I don't lose my mind and try not to rub it in so much when you post your first experiences with Gears.  Thank you for your support and I look forward to getting curb stomped by all of you who are 2 months up on me on Christmas Night!
