Posted on June 4, 2010 by baudattitude

So about Fatal Frame, eh? After loving Fatal Frame II to pieces, which is an odd emotion to attach to a horror game, I was not too surprised that I thoroughly enjoyed the original Fatal Frame, with the exception of … Continue reading →

Posted on October 26, 2009 by baudattitude

Started God of War this weekend. It’s a game which got generally impressive reviews, and I quite enjoyed it for a few minutes. The combat was nice and stabby, the visuals were very impressive for a PS2 title, and the … Continue reading →

I didn’t know “Jak”

Posted on August 30, 2009 by baudattitude

If you think back to the mid-90s console wars, you’ll remember that Sony found itself lacking in one department: They didn’t have a “mascot” character, the sort of character you can base toy lines and saturday morning cartoons and breakfast … Continue reading →

The Joy of Painting

Posted on December 25, 2008 by baudattitude

Apologies to any Bob Ross fans who stumble across this accidentally, there was simply no other appropriate title. I finished Okami last night.  Since I recieved it for Christmas 2006, that means that I had put off playing it for … Continue reading →

I didn’t like Okami (for about three hours)

Posted on December 20, 2008 by baudattitude

I’ve been playing between two and five hours of Okami a night, and I think I’m about halfway through as of this writing. I’m past the Big Plot Tw… I probably shouldn’t say that.  I’m past what seems to have … Continue reading →

20 Months Later…

Posted on December 15, 2008 by baudattitude

One of my very first posts was me talking about how I’d gone through the backlog, picked out half-a-dozen of the most critically acclaimed games I owned, and then set all of them aside and played Shenmue instead. To save … Continue reading →

One Furry Thing. One Robot. Ten Thousand Bullets.

Posted on December 3, 2008 by baudattitude

We hope you’ve enjoyed our game. We’ll wrap it up in the sequel.

Posted on April 27, 2008 by baudattitude

I finished Kingdom Hearts yesterday, and it was quite an enjoyable ride.  There was no Psychonauts-style Insane Difficulty Jump at the end, the Disney-themed villain in the last world was a really nice surprise, and even the Patented Square Multi … Continue reading →

Claims to manliness.

Posted on April 19, 2008 by baudattitude

I have mentioned that one of the games on my far-too-neglected backlog is Kingdom Hearts, the Square-Disney collaboration that has launched a thousand disturbing doujinshi. I think I am approaching the end of the game.  At least, I’m currently in … Continue reading →

Weekends, well spent:

Posted on March 30, 2008 by baudattitude

Oregon weather continues to be bloody pathetic for spring.  It is, however, perfect sit-inside-and-veg weather, so I took it as a sign that I should do so. Watched a little anime – “Spice and Wolf” and “Clannad”, watched some classic … Continue reading →
