(Please excuse any grammar mistakes)Wow, if this isn't a last minute idea for a blog I don't know what is. I mean I literally came up with the topic as I wrote this sentence, but anyways. Today my friend and associate Joshua Alexander came with me on what we called a "Main Street Adventure." Having lived in the greater Moncton area our whole lives we never really bothered to take a stroll down main street to see what it offers to the gaming community, so today we decided to venture!
Now we've been on main street before plenty of times, but only mainly to go from point A to point B or to stop by Spin it and see what's going on, but today we went all over the place and came across a couple interesting discoveries! ...and we took some photos! - just for you Sarynthra, cause I know you want them. lol j/k

Point of Interest #1
SPIN IT
Now I've been to Spin it a hundred + times so there's no surprise they have awesome stuff, however now they have a new location. On main st. there used to a be a huge car dealership but almost a year ago they moved out. During Halloween a costume emporium moved in, but now they're long gone, so now Patt and his store Spin It occupy the place. So now some of you are probably asking "What the hell is Spin it?", well Spin it is kinda like a specialty store that deals with used, new and traded goods in the area of music, games, movies and anything collectible related. Kinda like an advanced pawn shop. They have an amazing selection of music, movies and almost anything that could interest anyone. Here's some screen shots of the new place.

Patt's gonna have the whole place all together by January he's hoping and when he does we'll be the first people in there guaranteed.

Comic Hunter

Comic Hunter was actually a place that blew us away. Slightly. When I went in I expected a low budget store with little comic books and that was it, but their selection of game figurines, comic books and board games was awesome. Next week when I get some cash, I'm going there. (unfortunately I couldn't get any shots of the inside, but I got the sign. So enjoy that! lol)

Aside from that our journey lead us to a couple more familiar places. We had a great dinner at McDonalds (Yeah, surprised us too) where we talked about voice actors and movies and stuff and it was a really REALLY great time. Cold as hell though. The first snow fall took place this past Saturday and now it's just freezing out. Check out these pics.



So anyways, for now I'm going to go warm up and play some Fear 2. I just bought it and I want to get into it a little more. So until next time guys remember: Don't ever forget who you are and have a great time while you're at it. Peace
