I could write a paper on this, I swear to fucking God. Also, can't decide what I lvoe it more: the Han shot first refrain, Starbuck's cameo, or the girl in Browncoat gear.

Recommended: The Rise of the Video Game
Dec. 12th, 2007 10:35 pmFor those who haven't seen it, the Discovery Channel has an excellent series on the history and evolution of video games. Episodes I've seen have involved inserting emotional engagement into plots and the evolution of simulation games. Highly recommended for gamers.
Jeanne d'Arc: The Video Game
Nov. 26th, 2007 03:37 pmOfficial site here. More trailers here.
Frankly, the game graphics are blocky and unappealing. The anime looks awesome though--I wouldn't mind watching that.
The cynic in me has to ask the following though: why is it we have a badass fully-clothed female game character but we know she's gonna get burned at the stake? Just curious.

Introducing the Faces of Halo 3
Nov. 23rd, 2007 09:17 pmFor the sheer geeker-squee of it. I'm not into Xbox but if I was I'd totally buy this.

Thanksgiving went quite well. Scott fried turkey like a master and I handled the other stuff swimmingly. AND I behaved in a house full of conservative Catholics. I feel like I should be handed a small trophy of some sort.
Today went to see Dan in Real Life because there isn't a lot of town to show Scott's Mom. E.g. "And, um, this is the farmer's market. And the cowboy hat shop. And umm.." We went for a walk around campus and happened into the tailgating before the UT game. On the plus side, we got free hot dogs and buttons that say "Howdy" on them. But the movie was very enjoyable, and a quiet kind of funny. Steve Carrel relaxes the manic and is just deeply entertaining to watch, while Juliette Binoche is lovely as ever. Also, how not to like a movie where the protagonists fall in love in a bookstore?
My NaNoWriMo languishes. Once again I wonder why they think you should try to write a novel at the beginning of the holiday season. Argh.

Found this over at Wow Insider. It makes my inner lore geek happy. It is the "Lament of the Highborne" music video overlaid with commentary by Mike Schramm. Enjoy!
And reviewed at Slate.
My gaming group in MD used to play the old NES and similar games while we waited for everyone to arrive for D&D. It would always make me nostalgic for little blocky graphics. Like these.
Also, the existence of poison mushrooms? Heh.
