It was the catsuit that made Emma Peel so hot. That and her attitude. The character of Cate Archer in the game No One Lives Forever was based on her. I saw that they even make head crab hats now. Don't know if I'd want one of those on my head. Edie Brickell is so laid back. Of course,in the early days of her career she was high a lot of the time,so that could be it.
Yeah,I've always liked Edie Brickell. Mix in Steve Martin's amazing banjo and you have something special. I foung Metal Gear for ten bucks. I read some reviews that said some of what you did. So it's one that I will take as it is. I'm still getting used to the frustration of NES games again. The nostalgia can only go so far. But this one was a classic,so I will hold on to it. And the head crabs are from Half Life. The sound their host makes is horrible. It's a cross between a moan and a muffled scream. Freaky as hell when you hear it in a dark area.
I'm excited to play it because I'm at the point where I'm doing some of the Tiny Tina missions right now. Just hijacked[blew up train tracks!] a train yesterday with the explosive missile-dolls she put together. Her dialogue is the best part. She says the craziest,funniest things at the weirdest moments. I have to get this soon.
Great music picks.Two awesome metal bands I enjoy thoroughly. Cradle Of Filth is one I'd love to see live someday. How many of those Skylanders figures do you have? I see them at Wal Mart and wonder how many there are total.Don't know much about Advent Rising except that Tommy Tallarico did the music for it. Don't see much of that guy these days except for that big Video Games Live concert tour he produced. I will have to check out the game when I find it. As for The Last Of Us I already miss it. Went by too quickly. Such an incredible masterpiece it's hard to say enough good things.
I had a friend in high school who was a Jehova's Witness. Upon graduation he bailed on the town and his entire family,went out to California. Said his family would disown him and never speak to him again. Did not matter to him,he wanted to have a life. Said the rules he had to live by were too oppressive to take any more. Sums up exactly why I don't go to a church. This world puts enough rules on us as it is without inviting more! Hypocrites are in abundance in our local churches,too. The bullshit they preach has nothing to do with Christ or his teachings. So no,I'm not the least bit offended. Everyone's got a right to their own opinion. Seems like there are far too many people in politics right now who want to enforce their religious doctrines down our throats. It's wrong and it's more evil than anything they scream about. The bottom line is it's about control. It makes them feel safe and powerful to dictate how others may live.
That guitarist is crazy good. Metal for the win! I like the first song a lot. They have a good singer and are a tight band. On the whole metal vs. punk thing it made me remember an album by DRI called "Crossover" that attempted to bridge the gap between the two. Very few had done that before so it was pretty amazing.
I saw some of Black Nerd's videos yesterday. He's pretty funny,I should watch him regularly. Sessler's Something is such a great podcast. He always picks a topic that I have strong interest in. Tara Long and Max Scoville are always good when they sit around and talk with Adam on the Casual Friday podcast. Their show,Destructoid,is probably my favorite one since X-Play is now gone forever.
I play old school games like Dig Dug,Xevious,and Doom. Seems to do the trick every time. Glad you're back and I hope things are getting back on track for you this week. Summer is a tough time for problems to crop up. You want to relax and have fun.
He who controls the spice....controls the universe! Has the best villain,too. Baron Harkonen is just disgusting. I know I will destroy a few controllers while playing that Castlevania game. Rage On!!!!!!
One of our neighbors has a sadly neglected pool that got pretty funky last summer. Next thing you know it was chock full of tadpoles! We tried to keep about 20 of them til they grew up. Most of them made it and we released them in our local pond. It was cool to see the progress they made each week. I'm sure there will be a whole new brood this summer.
