You don’t frighten us, English pig dogs.

Posted on February 3, 2009 by baudattitude

If my mother played videogames – which, let’s be straight up here, she used to be quite fond of Asteroids and Ms Pac Man… If my mother played tactical RPGs, which she doesn’t, at least as far as I’ve seen … Continue reading →

Spaces, Invaded

Posted on January 29, 2009 by baudattitude

I am officially old enough that things I remember from my youth are starting to have “30th Anniversary Editions”, which isn’t really THAT bad and I promise not to get all depressed about it until stuff starts having “50th Anniversary … Continue reading →

In amongst all the tinkering with hardware and network setups, I managed to take a couple of hours to finish Dead Space, which I wholeheartedly recommend.   It has a pretty decent story, albeit heavily cribbed from “Aliens” with a dash … 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 →

Pudding, Necromorphs, and the Yen Exchange Rate

Posted on December 17, 2008 by baudattitude

I gave rice pudding another shot, this time taking the leftover coconut rice from the other day and applying it to this recipe, leaving out the raisins, cinnamon, and nutmeg. It worked really well.  I don’t know if I’m going … Continue reading →

In Another Club

Posted on December 16, 2008 by baudattitude

This time, an official club, not an unofficial fraternity like the Brotherhood of the Dead Xboxen, which was the last club I became an – unwilling – member of. No, see, Nintendo finally launched their Club Nintendo points-for-rewards scheme, and … Continue reading →
