    FFVIII is fucking epic.

    So epic, that the fact that I can say that without having ever finishing the game (my 4th disc freezes at one point which never allowed me to finish the game) makes that even more epic.

    Which reminds me, I really need to re-buy this game:(. But you'll enjoy it without question, it's amazing beyond words.

    Can't really call myself a huge fan at all, but stuff like Orthodox Caveman sounds amazing, simple sounding, but amazing. Shit, all this doom metal and drone stuff is starting to consume me:P.

    Black Friday purchase.
    Dead Space, mmmhmm. About an hour and 50 minutes or so into the game, and can easily say this game delivers. Kinda hard to get used to at first, but once you're into the swing of things the game feels excellent and immersive.

    Plus, the action is grisly and intense, just how I like it:D. It has a very disturbing atmosphere, plus some great visuals and basic scare tactics (surprises, lack of lighting in areas to create tension, noise), so I'm really glad I got this game, now I have this and Half-Life 2 to occupy my time, and ...

Dead Space, mmmhmm.
Bought Dead Space for my 360, 60 bucks lolwut.

About an hour and 50 minutes or so into the game, and can easily say this game delivers. Kinda hard to get used to at first, but once you're into the swing of things the game feels excellent and immersive.

It has a very disturbing atmosphere, plus some great visuals and basic scare tactics (surprises, lack of lighting in areas to create tension, noise), so I'm really glad I got this game, now I have this and Half-Life 2 to occupy my time, and luckily both games are somewhat difficult, so I can spend a good amount of time playing these.

Good week I'm having!

Is so awesome:D.

After such an excellent meal, someone like me (which would be me), would sit in a relaxed slump on my computer chair listening to music and surfing Giant Bomb.

Which I am doing.

Since Giant Bomb is so wonderful and the site is so GREAT at posting my fucking blog when I had something PERFECT written out, I'll briefly explain what I had in my blog:

Half Life 2 is good shit.

I finished Gears of War about a week and a half ago, thought it was pretty good. General RAAM in conclusion looks like a badass, is actually a wuss.

Finished THE ENDLESS SETLIST 2 ON EXPERT GUITAR (which took a disturbingly long time, and was indescribably epic).

Tai Pei Spicy Szechuan Style Chicken with steamed rice food boxes kick the crud out of ramen noodles and taste amazingly good for something that is microwaveable\is in a box.

You must google an image of "Tai Pei Spicy Szechuan Style Chicken", go do it nao pls thanx.

I'm going to play more Half Life 2 and finish my food.

The song "Blood Shot" by Blues Saranceno (or whatever his last name is) was a song featured in the Cartoon Network show Megas XLR, not just that, but it is an awesome instrumental song, and I've been listening to it a lot:

  


Yeah...that covers everything:P. I hate when this happens.

This post relates to: Half-Life 2

An offer you can't refuse.
Never played anything in the Half-Life series, so this might be a great (better late than never) time to start. I'm about to install it now, so I'll give some impressions later.

Hope this is as awesome as it says:D.

Went and saw Deep Purple yesterday, my 2nd ever concert. What is it about concerts that are so fucking amazing? I mean, it's indescribably awesome.

But, when Ian Paice and Steve Morse were throwing drumsticks and guitar picks, I always have some mob of doom in my way, dammit.

But I had an amazing time yesterday, concerts are just simply kickass, even the other band before them (Gotthard) were pretty good stuff!

A trip through the classics.


By 1993, the Mario Franchise was flourishing from their groundbreaking and wonderously addictive gameplay and accessablity. From their recent hit Super Mario World, right back to Super Mario Bros for the NES. In a way, you could consider Super Mario All Stars as sort of a Gift Bag for those who just want a lot of the fun in one package.

Super Mario All Stars is a complation of the Super Mario Bros series on one game: Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros The Lost Levels, Super Mario Bros 2, and Super Mario Bros 3. Each of these games in their own right are already well done, as a package, having them all in one game is quite fenonminal. But one issue to deal with might be redundance, Super Mario Bros the Lost Levels is pretty much Super Mario Bros expanded onwards, but more of the same great game isn't much of a problem is it?

Since the one game features 4 full length Mario games, the replayability is limitless. Each game (except for Super Mario Bros 2) features 8 worlds with at least three or four levels, and the difficulty increases as you go along, so it's a streightforward progressive set of games. The controls in the game are somewhat fluid and easy to get used to, but if you make a comparison to the feel of say Super Mario 3 to the first, you'll notice that Super Mario 3 works a tad faster, and with more control, but that's just updating.

The graphics for each of these games work like a timeline, Super Mario Bros honestly has a rather simple and colorful look, SMB The Lost Levels is the same, nothing too special. Then as you play SMB 2, you notice the levels and the graphics defnitely feel more detailed and a bit like an acid trip as the developers put more personality and imagination into the levels. SMB 3 then looks like a well painted picture, still original in design and imaginitive, but much more polished and colorful. The graphics in an overall look are pretty well done for the time it was made.

Gamers who haven't really experienced much of the classic Mario games of the late 80s and early 90s should be strangled in front of a mirror by overlooking  this game. It's really the best of all worlds and a great collection for new Mario fans and long time fans alike, besides the abscence of Super Mario World (But chances are you have that game already:P).

5 stars, Review by Verdugo.

Where? Macalania Temple? If so, then Fuck Yes. I had so much trouble with him there. I have to tips for you: 1) Train for like a few days, or a day, that works too. 2) Summon your new Aeon when Seymour takes out his Aeon.
