Shadow of the Colossus

October 25, 2005 by Bartoneus

Last week I ran out to Best Buy and picked up Shadow of the Colossus for the PS2. Many of you have already heard my rantings about this game, but it is from the developers of one of my favorite PS2 games from long ago called Ico. Both of these games are made with absolutely […]

Realworld of Warcraft

October 25, 2005 by Bartoneus

I’m sure it seemed to make perfect sense at first, but in practice the idea turned out to bring nothing but the apocalypse. In the development of every Massive Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game people must have thought about it thoroughly. I mean, after all, it IS a game of playing roles. So how could such […]

My IPod has more features then the Pentagon

October 19, 2005 by Bartoneus

A new era of technology has dawned. Since the introduction of video capability to the IPod, a gateway to darker and more sinister worlds has flung forth. Government scientists have already begun work on a program to allow satellite link-up with this amazing device, literally letting me check out my own ass wherever I go […]

Firefly Subsequently Serenity.

October 18, 2005 by spankleberry

As soon as I saw her there just across from me in the tube, I immediately whipped it out and pointed it at her, heedless of doors that threatened to close on my precious appendage I was talking about my camera, of course.

Lost is the best show on television. Ever. No arguing. Shut up!

October 17, 2005 by Bartoneus

As recent, empirical, all-encompassing, and many other large-worded descriptors data proves, Lost is by far the best television show ever. The data to which I refer, of course, is the fact that I-tunes top 100 downloaded video list is dominated by the current season of Lost. As we all know quite well, I-tunes is basically […]

The Cheater

October 13, 2005 by Bartoneus

Why didn’t I write down everything in my notes? I could have meticulously recorded every bit of information I heard, and then I wouldn’t be in this situation at all. I peered upon golden rays of knowledge, brighter even then the sun itself, only to have them lost to me now.

You Could Have It So Much Better – Franz Ferdinand

October 10, 2005 by Bartoneus

Sometime around April of 2004 I began to find delight in listening to the radio again. Where once my ears were assaulted by racking vibrations, which ate away at your ear’s inner workings, there now was the occasional trumpeting of angels. Perhaps the real events were only slightly akin to those described above. One of […]

A 600 lb. Gorrilla

October 7, 2005 by Bartoneus

Poker has become a plague that is sweeping across the country. I can remember nigh over a year ago when barely anyone I knew wanted to play the game. CARDS? POKING? What is this ancient, non-computer based abomination?

Unsithasfactory

October 6, 2005 by Dave

So, as I was in the shower pondering how Livejournal is the Dark Side of the Internet Force and Blogging is the Light Side (now THERE is a controversal statement) it struck me why Episode 3 was so dissapointing.

The Promised Land

October 6, 2005 by guest

Lately I’ve been delving bit by bit (between FFXI forays and dating, which hasn’t left much time) into Riviera: The Promised Land for GBA. Not a bad little monster, I must admit. I’m not that far, but the characters seem likeable for the most part and the music isn’t bad at all. Truthfully the only […]
