Posted on June 29, 2014 by baudattitude

Mood Swings

Posted on May 13, 2014 by baudattitude

Started watching Non Non Biyori this morning.  It’s a slow-paced show about four friends living in extremely rural Japan – so rural, in fact, that they represent the entire student population of the local school, the nearest video store is … Continue reading →

Alts are Bad

Posted on May 5, 2014 by baudattitude

Oh CODBLOPS, you so crazy

Posted on April 29, 2014 by baudattitude

So there’s just two problems with this screenshot: First, I mean, just look at these stanchions.  They’re the kind with retractable belt dividers, so there’s no possible way that the belt would be sagging like this. I like to think … Continue reading →

I was clean for three years, man!

Posted on October 15, 2013 by baudattitude

A Tale of Two Titles

Posted on September 16, 2013 by baudattitude

I can’t think of a more disparate pairing of logos. I finished Kingdom Hearts II on Friday, and I am glad that I finally admitted that I was never going to play Chain of Memories and got on with the … Continue reading →

Steam Sharing

Posted on September 11, 2013 by baudattitude

I think I’ve identified the demographic that Valve’s new Family Sharing feature is aimed at, and it’s basically, well, gamers who spread themselves thin across multiple consoles and who may have some PC games in Desura and some others in … Continue reading →

Bioshock Infinite: It’s Awfully Pretty

Posted on August 11, 2013 by baudattitude
