Lazy
So I haven’t updated in a while and not much happened while I was gone. Obviously I got lazy if you check out my games section, as I won’t be using box art any longer.  The big news is that I finally “beat” Super Mario Galaxy 2 with around 85 stars.  If I were 16 again, I’d have every star by now but I just don’t have the motivation to play these days.  I have...

Good news and new shoes
It’s picture time so that means I finally have a use for the new Adobe Photoshop CS5.   Let’s see if it crashes for me like CS4 would. Well, my girlfriend and I just bought each other engagement rings.. so, I think this means we’re now engaged officially?   We’ve been together over four years now and have known each other for ten.  The rings are nothing special, white gold...

Rewind Reviews
Time for a new gaming segment where I’m not restricted by syllable count and I get to go a little more in depth.  I think it’s better to reflect on a game after you give yourself some time to sit on the experience rather than talking about it while you’re still hyped.  These wont be thorough reviews but just what I’m left thinking about the game after I’ve moved on. ...

I’ve decided to take advantage of the new pages feature on Tumblr, so I’ve posted a treatment and monologue from my script writing course years ago.  These are the only writings I have left after my HDD crashed, since we posted these on MySpace for the class.  I actually had a more blog worthy article I wrote just for fun but it was lost with everything else. I’ve been...

Final Fantasy XIII enjoyment grinds to a hault
I haven’t had much time to work on content lately since I’ve been pretty immersed in Final Fantasy XIII at the moment. Though I was never a huge fan of Final Fantasy X, I actually don’t mind the linear nature come this time around.  It’s actually when the game opens up at Chapter 11 where I begin to feel overwhelmed.  What once was a fun narrative to follow now becomes yet...

Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Poetry
Strong succinct sequel Built from the ground up, all fresh Ace?  You be the judge. Though I beat this game a couple of days ago, it was hard writing a haiku when it’s already been done in such detail.  If you don’t mind spoilers, check out the entire post on Wonkyman’s Blog.  Because there’s no way I can match Wonkyman’s haiku review, I also wrote a limerick. ...

Haiku Review for MadWorld
Platinum’s niche blood bath Black and white, red all over Contrasts Okami Mature game on Wii Sega does what Nintendon’t Or at least.. they did Oh, the irony Violence, highly popular MadWorld.. not so much Man darts, lady parts Humor, chainsaw.  Glaring flaw? Lock-on and camera To elaborate Boss fights, story, sound.. all great Pros: Presentation Cons:...

Haiku Reviews
Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulation Game play may be stale Plot as stellar as ever No objections here Bayonetta Style and substance Originality slim Gun shoes for the win Bioshock 2 Return to Rapture Well refined, tense atmosphere Still kind of easy Metroid Prime 2: Echoes What more can be said? Great game or the Greatest Game? Where’s my 3 Grand plus?

My initial run through with No More Heroes 2 was a bit disappointing, as I felt the story may not have been as up to par as the original.  Like the original though, it’s one of those things I appreciate even more after completing it and reading up on theories and interpretations.  I felt so compelled by the subtext of the original, I even did a final presentation on it for my Media Audiences...

I recently purchased a new mouse. I was formerly using a Logitech MX 518, seen below. As you can seen, it looks pretty gross as the grip on the sides started peeling.  It was over 4 years old and died recently when I frequently started moving my mouse back and forth from my desk to my tray table in order to use it while watching the PC from my couch. I decided to invest in my first...

I started a schlocky blog since fail was taken. Here is a relevant accompanying image I ripped from Google.
