I wanna get this: 

And this:

Dead Fantasy. Wild!

I discovered Desktop Tower Defense on Kongregate. I imagine all those games you played there were free? 

Been meaning to get back into light gun games now for years. There's a few on PS3 and Wii and those Cabela's games on Xbox 360, plus many retro ones. It's a rich treasure trove of fun waiting to be had. So much to play, so little time.

Aw yeah! That was great!

That Mickey and Silvia album looks interesting. Sometimes old albums like that have interesting songs on them. I used to pick stuff like that at flea markets on vinyl and sometimes find some real gems.

My friend and I laughed so hard during the film 2012 that we kinda fell over and couldn't breathe. Luckily we were the only ones in the theater. So no complaints.

Ok then I used the short one. Wiktionary used the "a" with the dash above it (not sure how to type that). I need to lookup what that means.

Tweeting's cool too. I discovered I can do that from my iPod Touch and so I've been doing it more. I'm not sure how anyone has time to follow lots of feeds though like they do. I use it mainly for interesting quotes and documenting Wilhelms when I hear one.

I suppose the move away from MC had begun with Halo Reach, since he's not in that game except very briefly at the end, but I loved Reach anyway probably because of the feel of the gameplay, the Marty O'Donnel music, and the Firefight multiplayer levels. Halo 4 just doesn't feel right with the subtle changes in the gameplay, different music, and a story that I find unworthy of scifi action movie style simplicity, which is what I've come to expect from Halo games. I like the complexity of the universe around MC but let's not get too carried away with it. I like the focus to be on the action. So, there's nothing really wrong with Halo 4, it's just going in a more sophisticated direction that doesn't appeal to me as much. And I tend to overreact about it because I'm such a silly Halo fanboy.

I appreciate your thoughts on this. You've got a clear eye for this stuff. It's helped me think about this more clearly.

Also, I'm looking forward to Karen Traviss' new book out next week, Mortal Dictata, but I fear it's all going to be about the female Spartan's anger over being abducted as a child by Halsey. Boo hoo! I'm going to like it anyway. Karen's a great writer.
