I have this DS game, which I bought on a whim after seeing a demo of it at PAX. It is called Nostalgia. As far as I can tell, it is called that because someone at Tecmo wanted to make Skies of Arcadia, only they wanted to make it in 1997. Seriously. Everyone gives Final Fantasy 9 shit because of its enforced EAT NOSTALGIA, PUNK attitude, but it's got nothing on this game--Nostalgia has gone miles out of its way to replicate the feel of playing a mid-90s RPG. Everything from the graphics to the music to the art design to the controls to the combat system to the crappy, predictable dialogue to the utterly cliched characters to the copious spelling errors to the world's most inevitable plot. I can only thank my lucky stars that there's no voice acting. Only two things really set it apart: firstly, it has airships and airship combat--which is what sold me on the game--and secondly, it is set on Ye Olde-Timey Earthe Onlye With Airshippes. I started out in London! I'm guessing it's set in the alternate-20s at some point, because there are Model-T-like automobiles in addition to, well, airships. After some incredibly hackneyed, choppy plot and predictable dungeon-crawling (oh, I need to go into the sewers to fight rats? you don't say), I am off to Cairo! Nostalgia's is definitely not a steampunk world, despite, well, airships; it's got that Ye Olde feel, though, which I do enjoy in my video games, cough cough Shadow Hearts cough. In short, it manages to be endearingly lame without actually being terrible. I am kind of enjoying it, despite myself. Enjoying it despite the fact that it doesn't use the stylus. WHAT. SERIOUSLY. WHAT. |

Tonight owned pretty fierce. Aggy and Buzzard got in mid afternoon, we tooled around K-mart and Gamestop and Borders and shit and then came home. Played a lil Dragon Age and showed the guys exactly why dwarves have the best origin stories. Went over to Mat's. Got him the super deluxe PC version of Dragon Age as a group gift and then went out to Grimaldi's where we vacuumed up not one, not two, but three huge fucking pizzas in a row (plain cheese, pepperoni, roasted garlic hell yes). And then his girlfriend got an ice cream craving so we went out to Junior's on the way back to his apartment and guzzled malted milkshakes. Then Athena broke off to go home and nap while the guys and I hung out and watched some of Starship Troopers. And then Athena called because she'd forgotten her keys so now I'm back at the apartment chilling, hoping the boys don't get lost in the subway system at 3am when they finish their movie and pick their way back here. All in all a very successful day. |

 I like being a night person. The best TV shows are on at night, my family is all asleep and not lecturing at me, there's nobody on the road if I want to go for a drive, and I just generally like nighttime. But with nowhere to go, nothing to do, nobody to hang out with, and not even being able to use the Internet... it just gets so dang boring. D: On the Gah, I'm just waiting around for my mom to e-mail me back about whether I can move some of my stuff up there and whatever. Also, to see whether or not I can get out of here for Thanksgiving (man, I didn't even realize the stupid holidays were almost here...). Stress stress stress, blah blah blah, same as always. :( |

A List of Awesome Things in Life Right Now, 'awesome' here having the meaning of 'less than awesome' plus sidenotes: - my rampant paranoia.
New Moon comes out next week. I need to not be so looking forward to this. But I am. (The best thing about that gif is the face second from the right. It makes me laugh. You only have I saw some sort of makeup, maybe eyeshadow, today at Shopper's Drug Mart. Y'know (or maybe you don't) how (depending on the company) they have those completely non-descriptive names for makeup colours? For example. Anyways. I saw this... I think it was a yellowygreeny colour. I don't remember to be honest. It was called LOL. Yeah, I don't know either. Pondering the merits of walking up to the 24 hour Walmart for ice cream. Yes, I know, we hate Walmart and all it stands for, but when you get off work at 1am, your choices are limited. I need to go home at some point and pick up things I forgot there. Like my toothbrush and glasses. And maybe my pile of GetBackers manga.

The other day I had a thought. It went something like this: "hhhm, I want to post about something but it's not really useful, kind of inane. It's not really livejournal worthy, probably better for Twitter." So now I have a Twitter account. I'm not proud or anything, but what do you know? It's fun. ANOTHER thing I just started doing is watching Star Trek generations! They started showing it on TV around 11 every weeknight so now I have to admitt, I have the same feelings about it that I had about Twitter! That it would suck and be boring, but what do you know? It's pretty awesome. ANYWAY here is some fucking ridiculous Star Trek shit I have come across in my travels:
These are pretty cool, little model drawings of all the ship's rooms:
LOOK AT THIS WEBSITE, this woman makes not only Trek paintings, but LABYRINTH TOO not to mention FIVE PAGES OF SNAPE ART!!!! I fucking hate Q and the Holodeck and love Picard like there is no fucking tomorrow. So come follow me on my Twitter, where I will give 2 line reviews of every Trek episode I watch every hot fucking day! Watch as I descend into dorkatudes unknown. |
