Vijay is a common given name for males in India. The word Vijay is derived from Vijaya, meaning "victorious". It is another name for Arjuna, the hero of the great Hindu epic, the Mahabharata.
The word Vijay is similar in meaning to Jai, although there is a small difference. Vijay indicates being victorious while trying to conquer, Jai indicates victorious while trying to defend.
A couple of weeks ago, my Xbox 360 died. My one true love, Halo 3, couldn't be played until my Xbox was back from Microsoft. That could take weeks!! Rather than slump in defeat, I tried to find a way of playing Halo 3, be it playing at other people's houses or otherwise. After many failed attempts, I decided to root in the loft for fun.
I found my first Xbox. Well. You have no idea what emotions ran through me. I eventually found all the cables and my controllers (not to mention Stubbs The Zombie), and couldn't wait to get it hooked up. After completing Halo 2 campaign on Legendary(again) and finding all the skulls(again), I decided to see if I could use my Xbox 360 gamertag on Halo 2. It worked. I was hooked on Halo 2. Highest Skill 25 and a whole lot of fun later, my Xbox 360 returned. I did not rush to collect it from my mum's arms. I did not build myself up into a frenzy. I simply finished my game of Big Team Battle, went downstairs and unwrapped it.
After collecting all the cables from my room, I went across the hall to knock on my brother's door. When he opened it, I said to him "You can have it". I gave him all my games, and went back to my room, ignoring his gaping mouth. To this day I play Halo 2, while my brother plays Halo 3 (which I now consider the lesser game). He's made his own account on HIS Xbox 360, and he's fairly happy with it. Gamerscore's got him mad though, he often rents games just for the Gamerscore. I, on the other hand, am glad that those idiots at Microsoft can't be bothered fixing the 3 red lights. Without it, I couldn't have found my calling.
That's my story. Anyone else got any more Halo 3 rejecting stories?
