You know... I don't think my father would approve of me dating the undead, and you're probably too nice a zombie-pirate for me anyway. Let's just be friends instead.

Finished Binary Domain. I appreciate the fact that they tried to spice up the gameplay from time to time but it got repetitive.
Whacked story though, that I liked.

Went back to Arkham City and I'm remembering why I stopped in the first place. It's also repetitive.
I'm getting tired of games that think "challenge" means just throwing wave after wave of enemies at you until your hand cramps.

"I'm an xbox fan, I'm gonna buy it anyway".

"Nah man, I just wanna play that call of duty with my boys".

Please slap him for me.

So the fact is that the Wii-U and 3DS will be the only game consoles fully backwards compatible that will play used games.

I always considered Nintendo machines my secondary consoles but it looks like 3DS will be my primary console with Wii-U as my secondary.

Strange times.

So is this what's going to happen to E3 now? Every company is going to do its own style of Nintendo Direct that they can control with no room for surprises during the main speeches? Blech

I am jealous. I love candy.

I might be moving to Germany!

School festival this week, so I'm drunk onm wednesday night.

Then got dragged to a norae bang (karaoke room) by two professors who hired two girls for my Irish co-worker and I.

It was just gross and kind of sad like I expected/. Gross experience.

Found a disc copy of Darkstalkers Resurrection on the weekend for less than $20 when I picked up Binary Domain, so I've been fooling around with that a bit. I am terrible at it. I'm too used to Tekken Tag 2.

Feast of Crows was a bit of a slog, but still pretty darn good compared to many other series. I would never call it bad, by any stretch. The real problem is that it's missing certain perspectives. And the ones you get in turn are not a fair trade.
Like many others, I just had to keep going. Fortunately, I found book 5 a bit better. Especially the latter half.

I finished Clash of Kings and started Storm of Swords this afternoon, so I'm a bit behind you.

Since there's two weeks to the next episode, I have been heavily encouraged to try and catch up and outpace this season before the last two episodes by a friend who has read the books.

And here I was thinking "Why couldn't I stay awake through the whole thing?"

Get some popcorn people! Thread gone full meltdown! If Sony does something similar...well, fuck console gaming I am going full PC. Never thought I would EVER say that.
Even without the atrocious DOA policy there is no way in hell I would buy this system. Kinect + needing mandatory internet = no go.

I don't understand how people can say this with a straight face when Steam's drm is just as restrictive.

I watched the conference but it started at 2am here.
All I saw was 20 minutes of YOU CAN WATCH TV before I fell asleep.
Woke up, looked at the internet and just sighed.
Looks like 3ds is going to be my only console this gen.
Maybe a vita depending on what's shown at E3.

Whee new Doctor Who episode was fun. I never would have guessed that was the solution of the impossible girl mystery.

Code:
Honestly the answer feels a little awkward to me considering that the first doctor clearly spoke with her and made an important decision based on her advice. Seems forced that the Doctor just never realized that she was apparently always with him.

However the more interesting bits were the continued implication that the Doctor's future will continue to darken and most importantly of all the "lost" incarnation of the Doctor. Where does he fit in?

If you go back and watch Trial of a Time Lord, you'll have an answer which was implied *but not for certain* during the episode.

Just hauled a Dreamcast + 6 games + 4 controllers + and a Web Browser 2.0 back from a garage sale for $20.

The games are:
Crazy Taxi
Dead or Alive 2
Soul Calibur
Virtual-On: Oratorio Tangram
Virtua Tennis
Sega Bass Fishing
And two demo disks

I don't even like tennis but I love Virtua Tennis. And you're going to have fun with Soul Calibur. It still holds up.

The first half logically progresses from what happened in the first movie.

Then it just becomes a giant rehash of previous movies, and it's stupid.

Fucking Lindlehof. Everything he touches turns to shit - Lost, Prometheus, Star Trek.

Someone needs to chop off his fingers so we're spared from his shitty plots.

Started Binary Domain.

It's generic gameplay, but it's got some interesting ideas and it's a little goofy, which I like.
