E3 is coming up so I’m a little game-obsessed at the moment, don’t mind me.


The above images are from Kotaku’s awesome post on the setting up of the best video game convention that I have never attended (and possibly never will? it almost died last year, and could die again…). I didn’t love Final Fantasy XII, or X, but I must confess that I am so, so incredibly psyched for FFXIII. I love waiting for FF games to come out, and it hasn’t happened in foreverrr.
Also this post makes me drool.
AND another thing.
I played Rock Band tonight with my brother and sister for the first time in awhile. I used to be really really good at Guitar Hero, and Rock Band is way easier, but I still did SO shittily tonight.
I partly blame my lack of practice, to be fair, but ALSO the strum bar on the Rock Band guitar is so fucked up! It has a part at the end that goes out, and is rounded, as opposed to the straight, angular strum bar on the Guitar Hero guitar (at least the one that I have, I don’t know about the newer ones). So basically the rounded part jams into my thumb, making it actually painful to play. So then when I get like 80% on a song that I would have gotten 99% on in Guitar Hero, I look bad!
Also Rock Band is good for drums, but the guitar parts SUCK. For some reason, they’re all very rhythm-guitar-esque, and therefore boring. And painful for my thumb.
That was a lot of work. And I got help from a lot of different font sites, icon sets, etc. I will be adding a credits page as part of the new design very soon! Now, though, a break.
