And Summer Ends

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

Summer vacation is practically over now.
Did 3 weeks out of the six of bike riding that I planned, not too bad.
Beat 3 games and none of them ones I set out to beat, haha.
And I wanted to make a bigger post about this but my 360’s disc drive just busted into itself so I’m rather [...]

The End of an Era?

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

This is the second in the past week where I consumed dairy products and quickly found myself running to the bathroom. This is most disheartening as a world without cheese and ice cream of various varieties is not a world I yearn to be a part of anytime soon.
I am, as they say in [...]

Thanks?

I have myself exposed on probably too many sites. I’ve my flickr which shows off fairly harmless photos, and my YouTube account which gets a lot of action since all my Smash Bros. videos. Man, I miss making videos…
But I digress.
I just got this email notification on flickr. Seems someone wants to be my friend!

For your consideration

Friday, August 22nd, 2008

So I am working on my DS playthrough of Dragon Quest V and I just got my kids to join my party. All things considered they come equipped with decent enough stuff but I’ve got a bag full of junk so I decided to see if there was anything useful.
Now, in the game your wife [...]

Sigma Harmonics - Brief Impressions

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

I won’t lie, I know nothing about this game. But I haven’t bought a game on random whim in a long time, and I was selling old junk I didn’t want anyway so I picked it up..
I haven’t started it up yet, but I will start with a review of the cover.

Lots of clocks, and [...]

One Full Revolution With A Couple More To Go

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

I just finished playing Final Fantasy on the Famicom.
Yes, the original Final Fantasy on the original Famicom. I just bought both last week for about ¥4400.
I can try to pretend that it was my current love for Japanese food and culture that got me here today, but I would be lying. And as fun as [...]

Summer of Getting into a Different Shape - Day 23~26

Friday, August 15th, 2008

I have been a bad, bad boy.
Well, it has been damn hot and I have been waking up late and actually going out and socializing, so as of now there is a little bit of a hiatus on the project.
Whoops.

Gamers these days

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

So Megaman 9 is a retro-style game. And will also have achievements on the 360 version. This apparently makes people whine.
Ergo, I have sought to make a list of true achievement points, for the modern gamer.
Mega Man 9 Achievement Points for the Modern Gamer
But I’m still hungry - 5 Points
Collect a small health restore item.

It won’t necessarily be a better shape, but it will be a different one!

Woke up and felt completely terrible. Woke up really late to start and then just couldn’t make it out. So hot, so tired, and some stomach pain so it just never happened. [...]

My first missed day. I just wasn’t home at all so it just wasn’t feasible. I got home at two A.M. so, yeah.
