Let's roll.

Comment Commentary

Mimmi- Would you really make cookies at an in-person meeting?

'Cause that would be pimp.

satan665- Eh, it'll be feasible eventually. I just think it's cool that it can automatically switch to, say, a Japanese keyboard setup. Different character sets.. I find that cool.

Shin- Glad to see you like them. I found their video for Clara Bow. Check it out here, if you're interested.

Ah, it's over. It's finally over.

We spent the last day watching really dumb videos about diseases and stuff. One of them was really gratuitous in showing infected genitalia. They've done that before, but this time around it was just plain nauseating.

After that we watched a partial cartoon addressing the serious issues of herpes through Tom and Jerry spoofs. Then a shitty AIDS video from the early nineties starring a younger Peter Jennings.

They were the longest hours of my life. The last two tapes seemed to take up the entire day. We then had a "finals" test, which was basically "Which is the right behavior?"

A real question from our test, directly cut-and-pasted from our school website:

"What is the legal age to smoke marijuana in the United State of America?
z. Not legal
a. 16
b. 18
c. 21"

And people were worrying about studying. I laughed at them.

We were going to see Willy Wonka and then do the midnight Harry Potter thing today, but that didn't come through. I didn't really plan on getting the book- it was just an excuse to hang out with friends in Barnes until one in the morning.

Instead, I couldn't get in touch with anybody, and Ethan and I just walked around for a couple of hours instead. It was pretty boring. I had some damn good chicken mcnuggets, though.

We also went over to Blockbuster in hopes of renting Killer 7.. But they didn't even have a display box for it, so I picked up God of War instead. I've only played a little bit of it, but I have enough for first impressions.

The cinematics are definitly the highlight.. Doing the whole counter-move with the hydras is badass. There is no other way to describe it.

As for the gameplay itself.. The variety of moves is nice, and there is also a lot of variety in the scenarios, but I kind of enjoy Devil May Cry 3's battle system more.

Maybe it's just because I only have one weapon and spell so far, but things seem a lot more fluid and un-clunky in DMC3.

Still rocks, though. I'm glad I rented it.
