Sorry, fellas, she’s taken.

Hey, the 360 still works.

I haven’t played an Xbox 360 game in about five months, ever since finishing “Bayonetta”, so it’s good to see that the thing is still fully operational – I did have to run a dashboard update, of course, but that’s … Continue reading

Go read these guys instead, they’re funnier.

I don’t look at my referrer logs often, because they don’t change much from day to day.  A bunch of people have linked to some pages I wrote about weird Japanese fast food, someone linked from the Encyclopedia Dramatica to … Continue reading

I lied

OK, I didn’t exactly LIE, as such. I did take Project Diva out of my PSP overnight, and even put a different game in there. Then I took that game out the next morning and put Miku back in. The … Continue reading
