Itteh Bitteh Gameplaying Comitteh

It kind of annoys me that only having one unplayed game on my shelf is bothering me so much. It's like, I need more games! I need to know that I have more games to play! I'm not sure which games I would like though. Maybe I can give Prince of Persia another chance, even though playing the game pissed me off because it was dull and the controls were annoying and weird. You know what, I think that game will be going to gamestop and find a new home. Heck, it's practically unused.

I kind of want to try Red Dead Redemption, but I'll wait until it's cheaper. Looks cool though, but the thought of horsies dying is putting me off... I like horsies. They are pretty.

Man, can't believe I'm writing anything at all when I don't have anything more interesting to say than this... I saw Shrek 4! It was better than Shrek 3, but not as good as Shrek 1 and 2, 2 being the best EVAH!

… wow, my life is boring. I need a new boyfriend. Anyone looking for a 20 y.o brunette with an unhealthy love for games? If you're allergic to dogs or cats, move along! Find someone else!

Bioshock...

Creepy.

First of all, why go into a creepy basement thing? Why not just stand outside and wait for help to come? A freaking plane crashed, people will come!

Other than that, Bioshock is pretty good, but I have just started playing it though. Only thing is, I kind of feel like a floating pair of eyes with a floating pair of hands in front of me... Where is my body dammit!?!?

And I finally got around to playing Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. I was NOT prepared for the freaking spanish nazi zombi monster creatures! Seriously, I was like, "Did I accidentally enter Silent Hill mode, WTF ARE THOSE!?"

Also, I think I put too much thought into characters. I didn't like Elena at first for example, but lately I've been thinking about her character, about her past, about her sad, sad future with Nate... I like her now. I also liked Chloe better now, after playing Among Thieves a second time. Don't know why, she just didn't bug me that much this time.

But back to Drake's Fortune! I thought the boss was too easy when I finally finished, but suddenly realized I had to have died over 20 times... So I guess it was actually a pretty difficult boss. Haha, I fail at gaming...

Random news...

I would do Patrick Stewart... which is really sad, but COME ON! Who wouldn't???

New Cole Vs. Old Cole and Old Cole pwns!!!!!

My problem with the new Cole is that I can't see why or how he would change like that, and it's clear he has changed quite a bit in the trailer. Many people say they like the new Cole because the old Cole was some grumpy generic villain type. And I ask, in what way?! He was hardly like that. The old Cole WASN'T just some grumpy badass. In the beginning of the game, he and Zeke were joking about pissing on a police man, he truly loved Trish, and didn't get assholeish before after the entire city shunned him, and even then it wasn't exactly unreasonably so.

And to sum up all the shit that has happened to him. He was the reason thousands of people died, even if it was for the greater good, he has been played mind games on by almost everyone and has no clue who to trust but himself, he was betrayed by his best friend, the love of his life was murdered and died in his arms, and then he discovers it was actually his future self who did it so that he could defeat some beast. Yes, he should become a fashionista, pretty-boy that is cheerful and witty. Totally! (Please note sarcasm)

Not to mention, InFamous 1 WAS Cole. They reused the buildings constantly in the city, the animation was so-so, the side missions were boring, and the plot in itself isn't exactly new. Yet, the game is one of the best I have ever played, and that was due to Cole. You cared for him, you cared about his friends, you could connect to him in that, without his superpowers, he was just a man who had disappointed his parents and probably felt like a failure. The fear or failing and disappointing the people you love are things most people feel. It made Cole real, like few other game characters I've had the honor of “meeting”.

It was also clear that Cole had lived a harsh life, even before the blast, and you could see that on him. His face was worn and made him look older than he was. He wore unfashionable clothes, lived on a freaking rooftop (though that might have been sucker punch being lazy), had a bad job and it was hinted that he had gotten in trouble with the police several times. Would the Cole we know really care about how he looked enough to wear jewelry? “Realistically”, that guy would only wear whatever looked clean enough on the floor unless his girlfriend dressed him. Oh yes, I can totally picture Trish picking out his clothes for him and him desperately trying to hide that from his buds.

Then there is the voice change... He sounds like a freaking girl! (Granted, everyone sounds like a girl compared to his old voice). I have a serious voice fetish, and that voice made me shiver in the really good way, but this one? One big MEH!

And am I the only who wonders what happened to his hair color? I mean, he was practically bald, but no matter how I look at it, he's blonde, isn't it?



Don't be sad Cole. I'll kill the near future you for the present you.

The Uncharted world of Video Games

Today I realized I have three unopened PS3 games. I'm not spoiled... I just forgot about them. Due to playing Uncharted 2: Among Thieves on a difficulty too high I've been ignoring the PS3 out of annoyance. Then I watched “Up” on blue-ray and I cried and cried and decided I needed some senseless violence. And finally I beat it! YES! Then I cried a little again when Elena almost died, but I blame that on UP. Should a movie for kids be that sad?




Anyway, I got Mirror's Edge for 10 bucks on sale so I'm gonna play that, even though I'm not a huge fan of first-person shooter (as I'm assuming the game is).

But these days I'm also very impatient. I'm waiting for Advent Children Complete on Blue-Ray and I can't wait! Seriously, I need it! I've been playing Crisis Core, FF: VII and even Dirge of Cerberus like crazy because, for some reason, I've been way too into Cloud lately.

Also wondering and wondering whether I should get Final Fantasy: XIII... Everyone says it sucks so I'm borrowing it from a friend, but she got to finish first. Thing is, she sucks at gaming, so I might have to wait for a really long time. I'll see if Mirror's Edge is any good. What I'm really looking forwards to though is Final Fantasy: Versus, but no one knows when it's released apparently.

As for Uncharted, I did love that game. It has a good difficulty level, but it also made me realize I fight like a coward. I stuck Elena and Chloe out there to kill everyone for me while I hid behind something. The characters annoyed me quite a bit sometimes, but the story and game-play made up for everything. Awesome game, two thumbs up! I guess I'll order Uncharted 1 as well.

Complaining about movies...

So my friend made me see Avatar… again… for the third time… I didn’t like it the first time! I must say though, when seeing it without the migraine inducing, over the top 3D effects, I could actually appreciate it a bit more. It actually looked pretty. My friend, who will be known as “M” here, always manages to get me to do things I don’t actually want to. See Twilight for example. How does she do this? Buy me pizza. She doesn’t even have to treat me to it, she just says “Let’s go for pizza afterwards!” Then I say yes, suffer through whatever it is, and get a delicious pizza. It’s usually worth it.

And speaking of pizza, today I saw Twilight again, voluntarily, on my own. Why? I saw Little Ashes. I don’t know why they got a bunch of British guys to play a bunch of Spanish guys, but it wasn’t too crappy… At least it wasn’t Rob that ruined it, and that’s why I saw Twilight and the Goblet of Fire again, and I must say, he isn’t that bad of an actor. But since I’m on Little Ashes, let’s get started.

I repeat, why get a bunch of British guys to play a bunch of Spanish guys? It doesn’t make any sense to me! Was Salvador Dali secretly British? And the lighting, oh, the lighting. It was the cheesiest thing I have ever seen! The lighting was cheesy! When they were kissing on the ocean, suddenly they were embraced by the bluish gleam of the moon, and when they stopped it mysteriously disappeared. Otherwise, most of the actors were only barely tolerable to watch, the dialog was stupid most of the time, everything felt a little awkward at all times (it was supposed to be so some of the time, but not all the time), the music was cheesy, the lighting was cheesy, and I’m hoping Dali makes a cloud sculpture of the writer and director of this movie up in heaven and piss on them. I’m glad I had “Another Gay Movie” to use as mind bleach. I’m not the only one that loves that movie, am I?

You know what’s sad? That’s me criticizing a movie I did actually like.

Anyhow, while Robert Pattinson is a good enough actor, I still can’t totally see the “Hot Thing” about him. Everyone has different taste, and personality matters more than anything else, but when basing someone on looks alone he is just… meh. Kind of pasty if you ask me.

This

Vs. this...

But enough about that. The movie I’m looking forwards to seeing now is actually “The Last Song”. I’ve come to the realization that I’m having a girl crush on Miley Cyrus. It’s so sad! And I’ll probably not even like the movie. I don’t care much for cheesy romance, but who knows. It’s not like I have a clue what it’s about.

And on another note...

This is an awesome mustache!

Poirot is jealous of that mustache

Yosemite Sam is jealous of that mustache

But this thing...

Let's just say, on this one particular thing, I agree with Hitler

Thing of Nothing JoBros Edition

I decided to start writing a blog. Why? I don't know. I'm not expecting anyone to read this, and I'm not even sure I want people to read it. I guess it will just be a way for me to get out all the frustration that's building up inside of me. *cue over dramatic music*

So let's talk about something that will rile anyone up. My hatred for the Jonas Brothers! They have annoyed me today more than ever for reasons I'm not totally sure of. All I did was wake up early and watched Disney Channel, and there they were. What annoys me the most is their supposedly good looks... WTF? Nick is okay looking I guess. Personally I'd prefer Liev Schreiber to grab me by the waist and sex me into oblivion, but that's just me. (On another note, my “Sexy men over 40” list is increasing by the day...) Then we have Kevin, the oldest. Okay too I guess. The only one with any kind of charm at least. Then there is Joe... Bleh! People have different tastes. That I know and respect and I rarely mind. If you like Twilight I won't judge you (out loud), but Joe? Monobrow looks retarded! (I apologize to my retarded friend. You're way more awesome than the JoBros. See you next LAN!)

I'm not the type to mock people because of looks, but I don't think ugly people are sexy either! Fine, I'm being a hypocritical bitch I suppose. I condemn people who only care about looks, and here I am complaining still. But I'm not done!

The music! Okay, I'm a Miley Cyrus fan, so I've had my share of online bashing. The music itself doesn't suck, it's okay. It's unoriginal, but so is everything in this day and age, unless you start dressing like Lady Gaga (and even she is just and exaggerated Róisín Murphy).

Why I hate their music is their voices. I have a serious voice fetish, and some people I love just because their voice is that awesome! And then we have people that I hate just because their voices suck that much. Their voices are high and squeaky. They strain their voices more than I do my body when attempting yoga. And don't go “you can't sing any better!” Is it really so that you become unable to distinguish between Michael Buble and Miss Swan just because you can't hold a note?

Didn't think so.
