Is there anyone good with Meta Tags that would be willing to give me some help?
April 10, 2011

The header pretty much says it all. I'm not too familiar with them aside from what I've read on Wikipedia. Just wondering if they're fairly easy to do, what it would take and if I can add them to an easy-build site like Geocities or Yola.

Thanks in advance for any info you can pass along.



Youtube keeps recommending these to me ever since I plugged in "Far From Home". I don't think I've heard a bad one by them yet.

Why I'll Never Cut It In This Business
April 09, 2011

Japanaman's topic inspired this and got me thinking on why I like games other people hate.

I'm emotional.

Sorry, let me explain: I tend to latch on and like sub-par games simply for random, strange reasons. Was Resistance 2 a great game? No, probably not. Was it a good game? Possibly. I loved it because I was in kind of a rut with games and needed something different than your prototypical action/RPG game I had been playing for months on end. It was the first FPS that my girl was actually good at because of the Auger and its relaxed nature. We would sit and play that for hours, talking shit to each other making bets on who would get the most kills and blasting stuff.

Happy Birthday, Zipp
April 04, 2011

Happy Birthday, Friend.

What would you like?

Did you get The Wise Man's Fear yet?

I could even send you Darkness if you want.

Or something on PSN. I think you can do that.

Wait!

I've got it. If you're anything like Kyle, you'll enjoy this.



3:20 is the best. Happy Birthday.

Kidding. Seriously, though. If you want something on that list let me know.

If you actually have the means to do so, you can take it...
April 01, 2011

It's been a while since I've written any sort of fiction and that's really what quiets my raging mind (I know there's a few of you that feel the same) and maybe it's the fact I should be sleeping but am too anxious to actually do so. Hell, could be that I've finally had a long enough break from Darkness to get back into something other than a review. Not really sure. All I know is that I want to write something that isn't owed to anyone. Just splurging I suppose. I still don't have the energy to write Chaos but closer now.

Anyway. Sorry. I'm rambling.

Damn you, O.D.
April 01, 2011

I really hope you do the second one because that's a hell of an idea. Now you got me thinking about. Wanting to do it. Fired up about it, if only for the fact of doing one of my reviews justice.

And I'm scrolling through my list, wondering which is a great game deserving of a face-lift. I have a few really: Eternal Blue, Devil May Cry 3, Landstalker or maybe Shining The Holy Ark.

Not really sure. There are a few. So if we are going with this contest I want to take a vote. You can just list it or give me reasons but I ask to you, HG Community, what do you think is my worst review?

Know that if you do vote, I will do the same for you if you'd like.

Looking forward to this one, so if you do it know that I'm down. Or in. Or on board. One of those things.

I'm Ultimately Going To Regret This
March 31, 2011

Admitting this, I mean.



I'm actually kind of excited for this. Well, no, really excited.

I grew up with this show, and it was my favorite for many years. Sure it was campy, the production value was low and Snarf was the most irritating character ever next to Jar Jar Binks but it was still great. And there's a sort of nostalgic draw to it...reminds me of when I was a kid.

I get the odd feeling that Jason is with me on this one. Just a guess.

Other random, more focused thoughts
March 23, 2011

For any writers who are looking to get published: have you ever read a book that's so incredible you've said to yourself "there is no way that anyone would reject that"? I have, most recently The Name Of The Wind by Patrick Rothfuss. It is one of the most defined and interesting fantasy novels I've read in a very long time, maybe ever. And when I read it, I imagined he had no trouble in getting published.
