I was worried someone would expect some Turok talk, but I just couldn't resist adding the word "cerebral" at the last minute.
Is playing Prof Layton like getting a Cerebral Bore to the skull? Not quite that bad, a near miss leaving a long scar is closer to the mark.
I've had Gamestop employees routinely try and swap out a new box for a generic one on me many times. I always watch them carefully to make sure they don't do it.
I dislike Gamestop because they are always trying to pull something on me. I hate that. They're taught to be falsely interested in you and then try and sell you something sub-par. I hate going there. Too much corporate influence going on now. Very unpleasant.
I went into one today to get a game and saw it was in a generic box. Sometimes I ask if they have the new box (and sometimes they have it) but they always make me feel stupid for asking that, so I left the place. I've got two other Gamestop's I'm going to check for a complete copy tomorrow.
Oh yea, I have a retro store in my area now, a mom and pop shop, and I went there first to give them first dibs on my purchase. They didn't have the title I wanted, but there you go. Gamestop's now my last choice for used games.
My friend's place is in a very Irish community. They have the Irish Times newspaper in the WaWa there. I think I'll have a Guinness in a German stein so my German side can toast my Irish side.
I've had the same frustrations with both Borderlands games playing the ranged attack class. Maybe it would work better with four player co-op instead of two. I'm excited to try out the other classes though. Maybe I'll find the sweet spot in this game.
I played a little bit of PSO on Xbox 360. I didn't take to it, but I'd be willing to give it another shot.
I played all these FPSes on the PC first, then PS1 and then N64. It seems like when a lot of series went to N64, they changed up some things. Like Destruction Derby 64 had extra tracks and different feel to it than DD on PS1. I loved the N64 version but not the PS1 one. I played Duke Nukem 64 totally differently than the PS1 version. I played much more deathmatch stuff. It just seemed better in that department. Now I'd like a review of Quake II on N64.
I just recently got a DS Lite again to play GBA games. I have a GBA SP but it's not the one with the better backlight and I just couldn't stand the dim screen of the regular one. So I got the DS Lite and it's fabulous for GBA games.
I kinda wish I still had my DS fat just to look at it and laugh.
I'm really tired of prettiness in both sexes in the media. I almost don't want to see anything anymore because it's always just a bunch of pretty people. I don't worship a look and prettiness is a dime a dozen. Every time there's a new "hot" person being talked about I look at them and see the same darn face I've seen every few years. I like real people not Kens and Barbies. They all look like they were cut from the same mold like a pack of clones. The whole image thing just bores me to tears.
Take two weeks off from work and play some of my backlog.
I liked the fighting in the game too. Kinda button mashy at times, but pretty good I thought.
I liked the WWII CODs but the modern warfare ones I never played.
I still have the first Veiwtiful Joe on Gamecube. Gonna have to hunt down the second one again.
