I don’t know where the text is, either.

So, on my twitter feed, one Jeremy Parish threw up this little tweet. It was obviously meant to dissuade me from checking out Legends of Zork. But dammit, I like KoL. It honestly inspired me to create an account on the spot. After a day or two of playing, I admit at being intrigued, but […]

Proof positive that a good soundtrack makes an experience, even in real life…

So I followed a random link on Talking Time, and it lead me to the music for Space Mountain. Check that shit out. That is some badass, awesome soundtrack, there! It blew me the fuck away. Then I realized I didn’t remember it, so I clicked on another link, this one comparing the “new” Space […]

I guess this means I need to sign up for Grad school classes, too…

I got accepted to the Graduate Assistantship program. Yay! Yay… I mean, that’s good, right? A nice bit of money, a free ride to grad school, additional important work experience… Of course, that means I’m still here. Bleh, I know I’ve been over this before on this site, but as good of an idea that […]

I think the upcoming Devil Summoner game has the title beat on length, though.

So, I’ve been playing a decent amount of Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time with my brother! It’s guud. That’s it. No, wait, I guess not. If you never played a Crystal Chronicles game, basically this is Square attempting to make a Diablo some other multiplayer-oriented dungeon crawl lewt fest. It works pretty well, […]

Obligatory April Fool’s Day Post

I have cancer. HA! See, it’s hilarious, because it’s April Fool’s day! I don’t have cancer! Or do I? HA! So funny! Tricking people is hilarious! Or is it? HA! Speaking of which, I decided I was going to do this project I have to do this semester based on Francesca Lia Block, and author […]

Punch in, do a little war, punch out.

Dawn of War 2 is a rare game for me. My normal game-playing habits basically revolve around something new and shiny coming out, and me playing it constantly until the next new and shiny thing comes out, and then I drop it like a rock. This game just doesn’t work that way. I don’t want […]

Good show, lad!

So, the first episode of Wallace and Gromit’s Grand Adventures, Fright of the Bumblebees!, came out on my birthday! Of course, I preordered that sucker before then. Telltale has brought me absolutely nothing but quality entertainment, and even though I was less of a fan of this IP than I was of Sam and Max […]

Hilarious Prank

Somebody has unchained one of the soda machines in the english building and moved it upstairs. I was kind of shocked when I walked out of class and I saw it, sitting out there, taking up too much of the hall, plugged in. I wondered what it was doing up there, and then I walked […]

I have no willpower when it comes to games.

So, all this week, Ubisoft has been having a Steam sale. 50% off a game each day! Nothing was really appealing to me, though. Assassin’s Creed? Not my sort of game. Prince of Persia? I want to play it, but it’s so much a console game, I couldn’t imagine playing it on the PC. Brothers […]

A new campaign approaches: Command?

It’s no surprise that, after the Player’s Handbook 2 hit, along with all of the awesome Gabe, Tycho, Scott Kurtz, and Wil Wheaton DnD podcasts going about, that I’d hit a fever where I’d desperately want to get some more DnD in. And I do! Very much so! I assumed, however, it was going to […]
