A New Look!

So, I finally settled for a new look on the blog. I really like the big Feature Image pics. They give it a little something that the French call… I don’t know what.

If I can be arsed, I’ll go back and change all of the feature images to the full frame style. If not, then I guess you’re gonna have to deal with it.

Also I really like the random header logos. Like Forrest Gump once said, “I’m not a smart man.”

Hmm, that was probably not the best choice of quote. I guess I would have been better off with “You never know what you’re gonna get.”

Oh well. Too late now.

Happy birthday Phatty!

There’s nothing quite like the anniversary of the release of a machine that you vividly remember buying, to remind you of your own futile mortality and constant visions and nagging in your head that you have accomplished nothing and really should have done more with your life.

This is the Nintendo DS at ten.

You’ve met with a terrible overwhelming feeling of doom haven’t you?

Let me make myself perfectly clear.

I have never completed The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask. I have played it before but never beaten it.

I’ve tried to commit myself to seeing it through many times. First on the Nintendo 64, after my brother and I purchased it from a pawnbroker near where we lived.

Target Australia changes their name and logo to avoid affiliation with violence

Target Australia have announced in a press release that they will be changing their name and logo to avoid any affiliation with violence of any form.

The drastic decision to make the change came less than twenty-four hours after the company decided to remove the popular video game Grand Theft Auto V from sale, after being hit with complaints from many customers regarding the game’s content.

How I have sucked so far in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel

Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is a game I have been itching for since it was first announced. I’m a fan of the previous two titles in the series and have enjoyed the game thus far.

I do have some issues with it though…

Having been out for less than a week, a few bugs are to be expected. Some of these could have been easily avoided if I didn’t suck so much. There are things that suck. And things that I suck at. Let’s review these things so far.

The time I wanted to play Super Smash Bros. on N64

Seeming that today marks the release of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS I thought I’d share the story of the first time I played Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 64.
