So if you've been to the site lately, and since your reading this - you have, you have probably noticed some new page elements up on the side bar to the right. To be specific, up there currently is the Latest News, Other Blogs and our Rss Feed.
The latest news section will only display 5 links at one time and its just a quick area that we will put links to other sites with an article up that we thought was interesting or worth taking a look at. It'll be updated quite frequently, or atleast we plan for it to be.
Next is the other blogs element. This is similar to our other stuff section, but as you can see that section has gotten quite small now. We moved all the blogs from it to the new section. This element shows the latest headline of the most recently updated blogs we have up, currenty we have 5. These are blogs we here at GJ enjoy going to and think are worth your while to go check them out.
Last is the RSS feed section. Pretty straight forward, it links to other sites that categorize RSS feeds or it goes straight to the main one which you can subscribe to if need be. I'm not sure if I like this element so we shall see if it remains up.
Also we are looking into a section similar to the Latest News section, but for videos. We'll be tampering around with the program or a section soon enough. Would you guys be into that?

E3'08, My hopes and dreams
Here is my list of games that I hope will be at E3 that we know about and what games I wish would be there.
- Banjo Kazooie Three (360) - I have loved all the Banjo Kazooie games and now with the third one finally announced I'm looking forward to actually seeing more footage as well as some on foot action.
- Rock Band 2 (360) - I'm mainly excited to see the track list and how it will work with the previous title especially with the announcement that all previous downloaded songs (and potentially the original songs from the first one) will work .
- Half-Life Episode 3 (360/PC) - After the conclusion of Episode 2 and the realization that the portal gun will make an appearance will appear in Episode 3 (well the plot of two seems to lead to that conclusion) I'm very excited to see the conclusion as well as if it's packed in with any other games (including potentially Portal 2, or Counter Strike)
- Resident Evil 5 (360) - After a single trailer and my love of the series I really can't wait to see more gameplay information and footage.
- Bioshock 2 (360?) - I find this extremely likely to be announced especially considering that Take Two made the first one so I expect the next one will be announced at this E3.
- Dead Rising 2 (360?) - Capcom has made it quite clear that Dead Rising will have a sequel the real question is when and I figure this E3 will be the one.
- Red Dead Revolver 2 (PS3?/360?) - I almost forgot about how excited I am for this game, although there is no actual evidence it exists besides a trailer for a "Western Themed Game" by the developers of Red Dead Revolver I am very exciting for any quality western game of which Red Dead Revolver one was one of the best.
- Alan Wake (360) - I have no idea what this game will even look like but it's been announced for around 3 years now and I'm still excited for it for a number of reasons, first off it has a dark scary feel to it and a plot that seems very promising and secondly it's made by Remedy who gets props from me for creating one of the greatest games of all time, Max Payne.
- Sadness (Wii) - So this game is one based off of terror and from the brief trailer it looks amazing, in reports the game has been stated to be the scariest game ever and reacts to what it knows will scare you, I am very excited to hear more.
Those are my predications and my hopes for new footage or announcements so we shall see when E3 comes around.
Most anticipated games at E3'08
I thought I would share the games I'm looking forward to most that are going to be shown, or that I hope are going to be shown, at this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo.
- Viva Pinata 2 (360) - I very much enjoyed the first one and with a sequal, let's hope it only gets better.
- Chrono Trigger DS (DS) - I never played the original but I have heard all the hype this game has gotten so it seems worth while to check out.
- Animal Crossing Wii (Wii) - This games hasn't been confirmed at all, but I'm assuming it might, and I hope it does.
- Rock Band 2 (360) - I loved the first, and with this being the first game to have cross game DLC, I cant wait to see what new stuff will be added.
- Prince of Persia (360) - I loved the Sands of Time trilogy and this one just looks insain.
- Soul Calibur IV (360) - I'm a huge fan of this series and though the addition of Star Wars characters makes me cringe, I'm still looking forward to it.
- Mirror's Edge (360) - This game looks very interesting and super cool. With the latest trailor out, it just seems that much better. I'm quite intrigued with this whole "change the way we look at first person" aspect.
So those are mine, they're in no specific order but I know sooner or later I will be picking these up, some as soon as September. Chris is to be posting his list up in the next few days.

Forge 4 Rush?
Diablo 3 has finally been announced after 7 years since the last game in the series (Diablo 2 LOD) was released. It was slowly announced using the various Bizzard sites to show a small teaser on the front page. Now my excitement for this game has slowly been building over the past few months as I briefly decided to return to the Diablo 2 with some friends and we began doing the usual activities like Meph Runs, Rushes and Uber Tristram. Although I recently have found the concept of the game a little disappointing. I'm not just referring to the new graphic design of the game which seems more like Untold Legends then a Diablo game with much more cartoony looking characters but more the time I will be "Wasting".
Now when I was a kid spending unknown hours doing runs and leveling up just for the purpose of being "The Best" seems kind of lost on me as I've been falling out of favor over the past couple of years with pointless leveling since my last foray into the world of City Of Heros and the fact that my PC is currently residing in my closet until I decide to upgrade it. Is it perhaps that I've grown accustom to constant instant gratification in my games as opposed to working slow to achieve my goal? Perhaps but I do plan to pick this game up (as well as a new graphics card) when it is eventually released but I mean what's the hurry? It's Blizzard, I'll be lucky if it's out by the time I move out.

End of Saiyin Saga
So here is the first video content to go up on Gotta Jet!. Sorry there's no sound, Windows Movie Maker is very weird and it was my first time trying it. Due note that this is the first time I've tried uploading videos to a website and such so I'm sure things will only get to better quality from here on out.
This is the video you get once you beat Vegeta at the end of the Saiyin Saga in Burst Limit. I really liked this video so I made sure to film it.
I hope the subtitles on it are clear enough so you can know what's going on.
Look forward to more video content from here on out.

Checked off
From that list I put up a few days ago of the games I got. I've gotten a few of them so far. As you know, Burst Limit. Also, Chris got me Crisis Core yesterday, that was nice of him. Last but not least, I picked up No More Heroes today. Surprisingly it was only $30 so that's pretty cool.
Now I'm currently looking into a nice DVD rack/shelf to put all my games on so they're closer to me when I'm on my couch. Getting up and walking to the shelving unit is to much work.
