Scary done right proper.

Posted on May 26, 2010 by baudattitude

After playing several games recently that flirted with the tame edge of the “horror game” genre, I’ve decided to give myself some real scares.  I started Fatal Frame last night, and damn if it isn’t a fine way to freak … Continue reading →

So, I have a couple of movies to watch.

Posted on May 25, 2010 by baudattitude

So here’s the thing: I own, on DVD, “Parasite Eve: The Movie”, and I bought “Silent Hill: The Movie” off iTunes a few months ago when it was a $4.99 movie. I haven’t watched either yet, mind you, because I … Continue reading →

A Night at the Opera, Square style.

Posted on May 21, 2010 by baudattitude

So, full disclosure here, I don’t know much about opera. The performance form, anyway.  Not the web browser.  Actually, I don’t know much about the web browser other than that Opera fanatics tend to have that extra level of crazy … Continue reading →

Mac Logo Madness

Posted on May 20, 2010 by baudattitude

I’m actually surprised I didn’t put a photo of this up before, since I’ve had the Macbook Pro for almost a year, but I looked around and can’t find it. Anyway.  So, I bought a Macbook Pro about a year … Continue reading →

Koudelka: Finishing thoughts.

Posted on May 20, 2010 by baudattitude

I wound up staying up until 1:30 last night to push through the final disc of Koudelka.  All told, my playtime was on the order of 17 hours and I was hopelessly overlevelled for the final boss by the time … Continue reading →

More lightly vexing things.

Posted on May 19, 2010 by baudattitude

Completely unrelated to my inability to buy cheap games, noted earlier: I downloaded a song this weekend, and it turned out to be in “tta” format.  Which has weird associations for me, actually, because it’s an acronym I’ve only seen … Continue reading →

Lightly vexing things

Posted on May 19, 2010 by baudattitude

So apparently Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time got marked down to $1.00 on Direct2Drive for a few hours. I found out about this while I was still at school, so when I got home one of the first … Continue reading →

Here’s a weird little criticism of Koudelka.

Posted on May 18, 2010 by baudattitude

So, I’m still playing through Koudelka and really starting to realize that when a reviewer says “12-15 hours of gameplay”, it means “24-30 hours” in my personal time space.  Fortunately it’s still quite enjoyable and the game’s “escape” command works … Continue reading →

So a psychic, a thief, and a priest walk into a monastery…

Posted on May 15, 2010 by baudattitude

That’s a pretty good setup line for a joke, I think, but I’ll leave the rest of it to your imagination. I’m a big fan of buying Shadow Hearts games, even though I’ve never finished one, but I have an … Continue reading →
