Happy b-day! 

I really don't like subtitles anymore. It distracts my eye from the visuals. I'll take a bad dub over subtitles any day. 

I keep reminding myself that there's plenty of content to play that's free out there. 

Sometimes the mission objective isn't that clear. I just wandered around and talked to NPCs a couple more times and things cleared up. NPCs surprisingly say differnet things after a while in KH. I don't usually see that in games. Usually they say several things at one time and then repeat. 

Yea, those are great. I played Darius, I think. I just like the biplane in Sky Shark. 

Why won't that theme song from 1943 leave my brain. It goes on every day. 

Darn. Maybe when I get back to work, I'll spring for it. 

Xcom is so great, but it's so hard. It really frustrates me after a while. I so want to play Xcom 2 again though. Give myself some more punishment, I guess. 

What are the systems you have now?

Well, I remember crashing very easily if I stepped too hard on the foot pedal. That thing's got crazy acceleration, maybe too much. I got pretty good at it, though, and knocked cars off the road like crazy. 

Novels based on arcade games. Interesting possibility for fanfic going super retro. I'm going to ruminate on that. I imagine I could find that Xevious story online somewhere. 

That's a cool story. Did you keep the paper? I used to draw in flip books tiny animated battles like a side scrolling shooter. Actually, exactly like Metal Slug now I think of it. A stick figure version. 

I ought to check out that Xevious 3D/G+ game if I can find it. Also NES Marble Madness. I have a vague memory of maybe playing it a long time ago, but I want to try it again. I'll look for both at Jay Street tomorrow.
