Adventures in impossible constructions

Echochrome. I’ve been looking at this PSP game for a while, and it looks very fun. With gameplay revolving around traversing geometric objects by turning them into impossible constructions, it’s just like my current obsession. It’s also remarkably similar to Fez, at least in terms of moving the camera around to create new dimensions in [...]

I dreamt I was swimming.

What does that mean? I found out. Emo haha.

Game of the Month #3: Guitar Hero

I no longer play Guitar Hero. But that’s due in no part to it being a terrible game. I don’t play anymore because I wrecked my little plastic guitar by playing too much. Strictly speaking my fake guitar still functions, but the strum bar won’t register every single strum anymore; its sensors have conked out [...]

Across the Universe

I’ve just finished watching Across the Universe for the third time. Still a great movie. I found it great how they managed to make a semi-coherent story out of the words of the Beatles. They placed it against a socio-political backdrop, which serves to highlight this period piece as a story of a generation. [...]

Sarah McLachlan needs more airtime.

As much as I am open to all types of music, I can’t help but feel bored by what’s currently popular (because it already gets a lot of airtime). And I can only take so much R&B now.

Sarah McLachlan’s voice is purty. Angel is a favorite of mine from way back, Adia would get second [...]

The Umbrella Killer

Speedpaint? I don’t know.

Iron Man was fantastic.

Disclaimer: Some spoilers may be found in the post. Read at your own discretion. Also, Iron Man was fantastic.
There, I said it. I thought the movie was great.
Robert Downey Jr. shines as Tony Stark. I had my qualms about the casting of Mister Jr. for the lead role, but all those doubts are now [...]

Batman: The Killing Joke

I have to admit, Batman: The Killing Joke was a bit underwhelming for me.
It’s not that it wasn’t good, or it wasn’t worth the money I paid. Quite the contrary. It was both of those, and how. The origin of Batman’s crazy archnemesis told in an equally manic fashion garners a buy from me anyday. [...]

Game of the Month #2: Streets of Rage 2

I know, I know, about a month late. Apologies. :P
Since everyone’s going to have different opinions on the subject matter anyway, I’m just going to say my own straight up: Streets of Rage 2 was the best damn game I played on the Sega Genesis, period. I fried so many adapters just playing this.
To me [...]
