Dying gameworlds…

Posted on October 22, 2007 by baudattitude

Backlog: The Listmaking

Posted on October 12, 2007 by baudattitude

This isn’t really a “to-do” list that is going to happen any time in the near future. Honestly, keeping on top of my three classes is pushing me hard enough, much less getting ready for the JLPT in December. The … Continue reading →

War for the Pocket.

Posted on September 28, 2007 by baudattitude

I finished “Me & My Katamari” this evening.  This makes the second PSP game I’ve managed to play through from beginning to end… and I’ve had the system since August of 2006.  A quick look at the shelf tells me … Continue reading →

A Halo 3 Public Service Announcement

Posted on September 27, 2007 by baudattitude

Spoiler-free Halo 3 ending information follows – and this will be my last Halo-related post for a while because I’m starting to feel quite the fanboy. When you finish the campaign mode and watch the ending cinematic and are staring … Continue reading →

Yay I can read the web again.

Posted on September 27, 2007 by baudattitude

…or, to put it another way, I don’t have to worry about the gits that make it their mission to post Halo 3 ending spoilers. Fortunately, it’s not as easy to spoil as “Snape kills…”, so every time I’ve run … Continue reading →

Halo 3 Cat Helmet

Posted on September 26, 2007 by baudattitude

In our test sample, 100% of cats we tried putting the replica Spartan helmet on gave us a rather put-upon look and patiently waited for the humans to take the helmet off them. Note: We didn’t try getting our sample … Continue reading →

No Preorder…

Posted on September 25, 2007 by baudattitude

One downside to organization…

Posted on September 22, 2007 by baudattitude

I recently hooked up my TurboDuo again. Because I’m organized, see, and I can make a space for more game consoles that I’ve been neglecting. This was a great system when it came out. It combined a TurboGrafx-16, the CD … Continue reading →

When I said…

Posted on September 22, 2007 by baudattitude

When I said I’d finished Trace Memory, that was a statement made of lies. I went back and played through it again. Turns out that I’d not only gotten the bad ending the first time, but by missing a critical … Continue reading →

she still lies trapped within the system

Posted on September 21, 2007 by baudattitude

…Well, that’s what the game SAID. Now, I will stop being oh-so-enigmatic with my obscure quotes and explain. Before explaining, though: I finished Trace Memory. I missed a couple of things along the way, so even though I completed the … Continue reading →
