I just don't have the mechanisms to interface with normal people, and every family visit just emphasizes the fact. I just referred to my mother-in-law as "The beast spoken of in Revelations." This stuff just comes out, and I don't know how to get it back in.
With seventy five years of history, the We're Right Awards is the definitive ceremony of its kind. Let's look in.
I don't know why it isn't working, I uploaded it, no matter what that stupid server says. Here's a direct link to the file, I'll have to screw around with it when I get back from the toy thing.
Anyone wondering whether we're right or not will be silenced forever by the 75th Annual We're Right Awards. The games that made the most profound impressions on us will be paraded before you, barring a few anomalies like Crystal Chronicles which hasn't had a domestic release. Without further ado...
BLUE SPARKS!
Check out the awesome Christmas present Lesley made for her boyfriend Dave!
1. You guys are incredible!
Yes.
I think he meant "now available".
The fourth page is not available for your persual and (potential) enjoyment.
That I am routinely made to suffer at the hands of Brenna and her college friends will hopefully provide some amusement for you. The facts of the case are quite accurate, I'm afraid. Also, apparently I said that she liked Samwise Gamgee when she actually likes Boromir, the eldest son of Steward Denethor II. I really can't be blamed for not keeping abreast of the fluctuations in her fictional man-harem.
I don't know anything about GameDreamz or their magical sources, who may or may not be hamlet of loquacious munchkins. It's quite possible that they're just repeating what they heard, and aren't a bunch of fucking liars after all - I'm just sensitive about my Shenmue, I suppose. I'm not sure why, as it is a game where you must literally get a job, and learn not to spend all your money of toys and videogames. It produces a genuinely profound mental state, with its rows of ironies which hum like subterranean machinery.
A long while ago, almost a year to the day in fact, I discussed what a danger I felt The Sims Online could become given geeky predilections for romantic drama. As it turns out, strange things do happen there - and my original assessment, submitting to you that perhaps a boy and a girl would meet and like each other, turns out to have been on the tame side.
Page three of our Rainbow Six comic is now live. I like it a lot, but I am probably biased.
In other Showdown news the Cardboard Showdown site has been updated. The new Kara Model looks totally awesome and the new weapons are perfect. As usual these guys have blown me away with their ability to take the PA universe into the third dimension.
When I think back on my life as a gamer, there are a few video games that really stand out as having solidified my love of games. One of the big ones was Samurai Showdown 2. This was back when arcades were filthy, smoke filled pits, rather than the family friendly pizza/mini golf joints they are today. Tycho and I would hang out at the Electron Palace playing SS2 whenever we could. After seven years of waiting for a new Samurai Showdown game, SNK has finally delivered. Samurai Spirits 0 is the latest game in the series and all the early reviews I’ve read seem to say this game feels like Samurai Showdown 2. I’ll admit I wasn’t crazy about SS3 or 4 so to hear that they have gone back to their roots makes me as happy as can be.
