I regret not having seen them with Down and Metallica, but tickets for that show were priced closely to Ozzfest 2008, and I had seen twelve bands for that price, including Sword and Metallica.
I still need to see Down, though, and in retrospect, perhaps the tickets were fair considering the bands playing.
Have you heard of Metallica's Orion festival, by the way? That sounds awesome, and I need to see RHCP.
I like stories and exploration in games, but alas still not an RPG fan, so if it's not a "holy crap get this game!" type recommendation, I'm afraid I have to pass.
What I absolutely love though, is The Sword. They're amazing. They're from Austin, TX by the way; saw them at Ozzfest 2008, and their set was so incredible that I stayed for all of it despite wanting to go to the main stage and watch a different act. They should have had a much bigger crowd than they did in my opinion.
I'll be back to watch the second video, it's not loading for me at the moment.
Edit: First time hearing Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, though I have heard of them. Song was pretty decent, I like the minimalist video for it, really adds to the song's atmosphere.
I don't actually know who that is, but I've been writing a bunch of goodreads reviews today, so I may as well look him up.
I'm glad you're excited, though, and that the author is from Wisconsin, where much of my family still lives. lol
Yeah, $17 isn't too bad for a game, glad you had fun. Don't worry, the girls I've dated haven't been huge gamers either. lol
Well, it just happened with the comment I typed; I intentionally typed Fla instead of Flash editing it once, and tried to fix it with another edit, which didn't take, but then I hit refresh, and then tried again, and it worked, so I guess that's the trick.
I'll check on my plug-ins just in case, though, thanks!
I more or less lived with my ex girlfriend and her roommate last summer, but the closest I got to dating a gamer was my ex girlfriend from last fall (her mom had a Wii we never were quite able to get working), so I've never lived with, or even been with a gamer as far as relationships. Then again, pretty much all of the girls I've dated were from when I was in college and after, and that's when I mostly stopped gaming because of expenses (my college jobs paid room, board, a stipend once I promoted, and in the summer I got paid in tips; plus, I had a sushi addiction, which can be expensive), so there ya go.
One thing I will tell you: give a girl who's playing for the first time a controller and/or quarter, depending on the setting, and I'll show you someone who will usually whip the ass of the guy bragging about his skills in the game and/or hogging the cabinet.
Everyone has more or less said what I would so far, except sometimes when I go to edit a comment, it double spaces whatever I typed, and I often have trouble when I try to edit my comment more than once; I'll type in a correction, only to see what I typed on my first edit after I hit save. Not sure if that's an anti-troll measure, but I promise, I only do it cause I'm OCD about my grammar and spelling, sometimes. lol Of course, being in a house with old computers, all running no-longer-supported (or soon to be so, anyway) XP, that could very easily be on my end, as could hitting enter to select my user name from a dropdown box causing me to make an accidental log-in attempt.
Both of those are minor complaints for me though, keep up the great work.
Edit: Let's see how this goes, and I will check what plug-ins I have running, but I don't think I have anything that would interfere; usually the only plug-in I screw with is Flash.
Ah, spoke too soon as someone who hasn't played it, then. Either way, dinosaurs are cool, used to be obsessed with them as a kid. lol
Yeah, there's more sanitary ways than blowing on it I'm sure, but that's just what we always did. lol I still regret buying a cleaning kit for N64 cartridges I never needed, though, as the method worked for those as well in my case.
But yeah, I'm sure there's a better way to do it, and I see it's your next blog, so there ya go. lol
There were two actually, one a Star Fox style shooter in 1998 for PSX, one an action/fighting game for PS2 in 2005, the one I was thinking of, and I think you were as well, as it was slated for U.S. release, but never panned out that way.
Neither were released outside Japan, apparently, which might be why you never heard of it again.
