Posted on August 11, 2013 by baudattitude

I watch an awful lot of anime that can be described, charitably, as “vapid”, and I feel a little ashamed about this sometimes. On the other hand, I’m usually watching anime to give me something to take my mind off … Continue reading →

An unexpected benefit to Playstation Plus.

Posted on July 22, 2013 by baudattitude

I’ve had a certain fondness, ever since the days of the original Playstation, for the “futuristic racing” genre.  Specifically, the F-Zero and Wipeout series, though I admit to a brief flirtation with Extreme-G.  The fondness is not returned.  I was … Continue reading →
