Headed to Hilo in a couple days for a vacation. So long game consoles. So long PC. So long suckers.

Gantz is releasing its final chapter in a few days. Can't say I expect to be very satisfied with where this ending is going but I've enjoyed the shameless brutality of the series from start to finish. Attack On Titan anime is getting worse but only because the horror aspect of the show is taking a back seat to the shonen style story they're building up to. My friend agrees with me that if it turns out that there are more people capable of this transformation we're going to be very disappointed. I almost want to say I enjoyed the all-story in Metro Last Light more than this show even if the monster designs are a lot less inspired than that of the titans. The explanation for spontaneously growing organic mass better involve Pym Particles.

I think Zidane was probably the best written but that's more a product of the time that game came out. My problem with him is that he's yet another Sun Wukong parable and I feel like I've seen better renditions of that tall tale. In the end I went with Cecil because I think his character arc was far more interesting at the time. He was straight up the black knight to his kingdom who was charged with slaughtering anyone by the command of the king. Then he proceeds to go through a redemptive arc where he becomes a completely different character class. Good stuff. He really is one of the reasons that it's one of my favorite FF games of all time.

I can not wait for Wonder Dawgs.

Things could be worse. Giant Bomb has my support as always. Keep on bombing bombers.

This wouldn't have happened if Patrick was in charge of security. No one messes with the Scoops.

This show is ridiculously good. All the living Starks feel like they have much more interesting roles to play after the recent events. I think Jon's story is the one I'm most intrigued with. I couldn't be happier with following this series solely as a TV show. High fantasy is a tough sell to a wider audience. This show has so much great acting, dialogue, costumes, and locations that it has become one of my all time favorite cable series in just a short period. Looking forward to another season of this awesome story.

Let us not forget the real hero of this universe. Davos for learning to read!

I really hope to see more of him next season. He and Dany should lead the Seven Kingdoms, as far as I'm concerned.

He's definitely one of my faves as well. Almost like a low born version of Ned Stark.

Sir Davos is still one of my favorite characters though he's going to have to bring the lord of light with him to the North. For the night is dark and full of terrors.

Easiest thing in the world. First get a Twitter account. Then use one of five variances of the following sentence: [Game Title] is amazing/great/okay/bad/terrible. If you want to write a thorough review then do the same thing but include all the pillars of a video game.

"[Game Title] is amazing. The game play is great. The graphics are okay. The story is bad. Ze multiplayer is terrible."

Finally ignore every single piece of advice in this post. You're good to go.

I'm not a huge DMB fan but I always assumed Jeff just doesn't like instruments. The less instruments a music group or artist uses the more likely he is to like it. Maybe studying classical music as a kid or failing to keep up with his guitar lessons scarred him for life. Sure he can dabble on keyboard but that's more like a music making machine and we all know where he stands on the cybernetic destiny of mankind. Personally I'm not interested in a future without tone color in my music.

Alex's writing is some captivating stuff. I always looks forward to his reviews and articles. As someone who wishes he could've been a writer I really look up to his style. Ryan and Jeff are pretty good but I can't help but hear their zoo crew radio voices whenever I read their stuff and it almost comes off as insincere.

I'll probably start on hard myself. If it gets too intense I might switch back. The most recent game that burned me on hard was Bioshock Infinite but hopefully that was just a fluke.
