@Fossil: Oh, I'm missing Spino too. Great; I just found Perso, now to dig HIM up.

@Bayonetta's creator: Welcome to the Internet, sweetie. Like it or not, you're gonna want this.

Talking about obscure games made me want to play Phantom Crash again.

And order SLAI, which was $6.

Just got Dragon Age: Origins: Awakenings today in the mail! Been enjoying it so far. Anders strikes me a bit as a hybrid between Morrigan and Zevran and little else, but I still like him. I mean, I liked those characters, why wouldn't I? Besides, this is Bio Ware, all their characters are pretty much the same. I really like Nathaniel, though.

It starts on June 15.

Have I ever said that one of my lifelong dreams is to get to attend one of those?

By the way, you've all run into assholes (Griefers, Trolls, etc.) when playing online multiplayer, right? Well for the record, local multiplayer can be even worse. I would enjoy playing Quake III at school, but my classmates are simply assholes— they'll tell me to leave, they'll all change their player names to "(name) is a fag" or some crap, and yesterday? One of them went up to me and shut off my computer. And what's worse? They do it for no real reason whatsoever— I haven't really done anything to them; they just hate me.  *

But today? I turned the tables. Today, their oh-so-brilliant plan was to all gang up on me (you could hear them cheering every time I exploded). Today was ridiculously awesome. I slaughtered them all. Twice.

YEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAWWWW!

I just got Lost Planet 2 and Split/Second! I've not played the LP2 demo, but from SS's demo, it's gonna kick ass! WOOOOOOO!

Someone's put up a preview of Super Mario Galaxy 2's first several levels, and it looks awesome!

Another game that's been getting gameplay out is Trauma Team, and...

...dammit Gabriel. You look like Spike Spiegel, but you sound like another badass altogether...one that likes Playing with Fire.

EDIT: I'd be headdesking, but I'm sure a few other anime fans made that same error. Gabe = Grimmer.o_o

It appears Blur's marketing thinks Mario Kart is for kiddies. Annoying.

Did my own Archive Binge on walkthrough videos for Command And Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. I now feel idiotic because of how long it originally took me to beat those missions compared to how long the creator took to beat them.

Hello, Blur! Do you like people not buying you? I sure hope so! Gamers are a volatile lot, and lemme tell ya, that line of advertising? They tried it in the 90's. And you know how well it worked? Take a look at that page, see how many names on it you (don't) reckognize, and then you tell me.

It only counts as "violation" if she doesn't enjoy it. Her reaction says otherwise.

Anyway, seeing the recent videos, specifically of a certain Super Mario 64-esque galaxy, I can safely say Super Mario Galaxy 2 will be da shit.

Also, if anyone cares, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 has been delayed. Can't say that's a bad move on their part.

Alright. I went and took a gander at the final SMG2 trailer. Luckily, most of it was stuff I already knew (Yoshi, the Rock/Cloud powerups, etc.), but... there were some that I didn't see coming. For instance, "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT A BLAAARG"

Found out Gabe's VA...I knew it was too good to be true. Not that Patrick Seitz isn't cool, but it's the second or third time I've mistaken his range for Travis'.>_<

It's amazing how much mileage you can get out of a fifteen-year-old game.

Autoshotgun FTW. Because aiming is for suckas.

Continued playing Final Fantasy III (NES). I just realized how fast you go through Potions in the older installments.

INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.

My mom just asked if Galaxy 2 is a game that me and my brother are interested in getting.

My answer: "Yes."

What I was actually thinking: "YEEEEEEES."

I have to wait till June for '2. Until then it's Sonic Unleashed.

^ Funny story about that, we actually rented Unleashed a couple of weeks ago. (My bro got it when he couldn't find Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing.) When we eventually purchase it, I'm planning to do a liveblog of it. ^_^
