About Me:

Sorry, but I haven't yet shared the information about myself that would typically display here. Check back later to see if that changes, or if I instead choose to remain an enigma.


Indiana Jones sleeps with a 12 year old???
May 01, 2009

Not to bury my own awesome articles (hint hint), but I had to share this awesome look at the Indiana Jones series and script writing in general:

Clicky clicky

It's been too long since I've written a real good script analysis like you see here. I think I'm going to go back into it. I miss my analytical college days.


Last of best of nudity!
May 01, 2009

You knew it had to end at some point!

I spent a lot of time debating my final film. I think this was an appropriate choice. Hell, I could write a whole thesis based just off this film and the sexual metaphors.


Odin Sphere (thanks to Sashanan)
April 29, 2009

Sashanan's comment on my blog pushed me to finally finish this one. It's another long rule breaker (2000 words, unheard of for me!), but I'm pretty happy with it.

I would love some feedback, though. I'm trying out some new things, and am interested to see the response.

New review!
April 28, 2009

My latest child.

I broke all my own rules on this one. I did huge amounts of story coverage, the review nears 2000 words... the list goes on.

But sometimes you have to break your own rules to make them better. Never let it be said that I'm a stickler for the law.

Bioshock
April 27, 2009

Well, i finally went and picked up bioshock.

I have to say, I love the plasmid system, the atmopshere is superb, and the presentation is tops...

... but I also have to say, the lack of any penalty for dying puts a HUGE kink in the works for me. I mean, my first encounter with a Big Daddy was scary. I was down on the ground, unable to control my character, and this THING walks up and I just prayed to god it kept going.

And when I first encountered one in combat, I was damn near shitting myself. But not for long. Whack whack... I was dead.

And then... POOF! There I am again! Why waste ammo? I'll take em on with my wrench! BECAUSE I CAN. It won't matter.

Back in the saddle, again...
April 27, 2009

Expect to see more Zipp reviews this week. First up will be Archmage, as soon as someone adds the game to the database.

But I'm also gonna be doing a ton of catching up. I've got Odin's Sphere, FF Tactics... and some others...

Didja miss me?

EDIT: Which reminds me... Jason said he doesn't have time to update the database... can someone help me out so I can post my review?
