I HAVE FAST INTERNET!!!

Now I just... need to buy a wireless router so that we have wifi and I have FAST INTERNETS on my laptop, and all will be perfect.

Watching the Merlin season premiere! ♥ ♥ ♥

And OMG last season I had this little pet ship of Gawaine/Merlin because, I mean, come on. It's Gawaine, He Who Is Shirtless And Should Stay That Way. But this episode I was totally feeling the Lancelot/Merlin shippiness.

Actually, we should just throw all the knights and Merlin and Arthur in one big pile.

:3

Also, Morgana gets more evil and evil and eviler. And even when trekking through the wilderness, she's always so well-dressed. Maybe it's an evil thing.

It's been confirmed! Neku from The World Ends With You has shown up in Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance.

DAMMIT SQUEENIX. WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME. I WAS ALREADY TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO BUY A 3DS SO I COULD PLAY THIS GAME AND THEN YOU ADD EVEN MORE TEMPTING GOODNESS.

*throws money at Squeenix*

Just take all of it! And you better give us teasers for TWEWY 2! And KH3! IT'S TOKYO GAME SHOW. GIVE US THE GOOD CRACK.

So I finally finished Kingdom Hearts: Re:coded. I feel so accomplished.

^_______________________^

Though, note that I said finished and not completed, because there's a bajillion quests and trophies I still need to get for total completion and I'm not sure I want to finish 100%.

But I do want to get at least 20 trophies, so I can unlock the secret ending that leads up to Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance. Even if I know what happens in the secret ending anyway. >_>;; Hush. I want to unlock it.

BUT OMG. RE:CODED YOU AND I NEED TO HAVE SOME WORDS. CAPSLOCKY RAGE KIND OF WORDS.

( here lies spoilers and capslocky rage )

This thread from ontd_political has the absolute most hilarious comments ever. How can you not like a thread with gems like this:

Most people outside of the U.S. don't realize this, but the delegates of the Constitutional Convention were overwhelmingly composed of two prominent groups within early American society: zombies and vampires.

Ben Franklin, of course, was a werewolf.

And this:

I seriously think that everyone in the Tea Party thinks the Founding Fathers were like the Justice League or something, battling evil, tyranny and injustice everywhere they found it. The Founding Fathers were NOT a superhero team, completely infallible and always right. Although the thought of George Washington as Superman, Thomas Jefferson as Batman and Ben Franklin as the Flash is an amusing thought.

And, of course, this beautiful summation of history wherein it is explained how the Founding Fathers abolished slavery:

john adams and john hancock. see, they built a time mechine, and used to to lanch them selfs forwards in time and join forces with ab lincon after there time mechine exploded upon reentry. together, the trio hacked, slashed, shot and killed there way across the south, till they finaly had an epic duel with the forces of slavery in the captial of the confedates. john adams, an old man, was mortaly wounded, and lay dieing. then, albert enstine steped in. claiming that history must be repaired, he took adams and hancock, and transported them back to there own time, lieing adams upon his death bed.

then, with his work complate, slavery abolished, and the time line restored, enstine nodded with statsfaction, and went to pick up stephen hawking, for there own trip to the future...


Politics, comics, and time traveling zombie historical figures. Of course I love this stuff.

GUYS. GUYS. OMG. THE NEXT DISSIDIA GAME WILL HAVE LAGUNA AS A PLAYABLE CHARACTER.

LAGUNA.

LAGUNA LOIRE.

*flails around in spastic joy*

MY BURNING DESIRE FOR A PSP HAS SHOT UP LIKE 1000%.

This is how much I love Scott Pilgrim.

I made an avatar of myself on the movie's website. It's so fun to play with!

I am being stalked by Kai.

T____T

Stop it. Stop it, Kai. Stop staring at me suddenly from video game box covers, or showing up on commercials out of nowhere to taunt me. Creepy Kai is a want Do Not Want but secretly can has.

Stooooooooooooop...!

WHY HASN'T ANYONE BEEN MAKING NOISE ABOUT THIS YET?!

Frozen Teardrop (2010): A novel written by the series' head writer Katsuyuki Sumisawa and serialized in Gundam Ace Magazine. Set some time after the end of the series in the date "MC 0002" on Mars, it focuses on Kathy Po, Sally's daughter and a Preventer agent, receiving historical documents from President Dorothy Catalonia and orders to initiate "Operation Mythos" and "awaken Sleeping Beauty/Princess Aurora". According to the writer's interview preceding it, the series will feature the 5 pilots, Relena, and "the children of Duo, Heero, etc.", jumping back and forth in points of time between AC 195 and the future, and is intended to act as a bridge to a possible sequel.

*FLAILS AROUND IN FANGIRL JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYY*

Also, I managed to find a summary of the prologue, and of course, the part I focused on was this:

# A voice is heard behind Kathy, "You’re just like your mother."
# Appearing was a middle aged man in black priests clothes with a young boy with long hair tied in a braid.
# The middle-aged man who appeared at random was nothing but smiles. "I’m Father Maxwell. The Father Maxwell who may run and hide, but never tells a lie. And this brat with the unpleasant eyes is my son, Duo."
# The priest brings special attention to Kathy, "By the way, I do hope that you brought three files with you. The three preludes are needed to awaken the Aurora Princess."

WHAT.
WHAT IS THIS.
I CAN'T.

*JUST FLAILS AROUND MORE*

EVERYONE FLAIL WITH ME.


EDIT...

Also, this:

The next file is Autumn AC195 in which transfer student "Duo Maxwell" reads an essay on the theme of the relations between the Earth and its colonies.

This has to be the part we saw in the series, after the Gundam pilots went to space, and Heero was on that colony school under the name Duo Maxwell and he read his essay in class. I'm such a geek for knowing that this happened in the timeline right before Heero goes to 'rescue' Duo from his execution.


EDIT is a perv...

Today, I love chronolith. Because she write me pr0n. Or, at the very least, Dorothy/Relena pre-smut. Everyone should take Duo's advice on birthday presents. X3;;

Okay, everyone needs to go to the Google homepage right now and play Pac-Man in their header image. I love it when Google does stuff like this. ♥

I played. And I died spectacularly. I've never been good at Pac-Man. :/ But it was fun.

In a continuation of my birthday joy, I went out yesterday (before my coughing and voice issues got really bad) and redeemed my free birthday coupons for stuff. It was a pretty good haul, and I'm so glad that I'm a member of those rewards clubs at my favorite stores. I walked away with:

-- two free pieces of Godiva chocolate (both truffles)
-- 3 tablets of Godiva milk chocolate (on sale and with a 10% birthday discount)
-- an eye-centered trio from Sephora (eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara)
-- Cookie Doughn't You Want Some ice cream from Coldstone
-- a cute purse and trio of Victoria's Secret body products (Love Spell lotion, body wash, and body mist); not free, but I used a $10 giftcard to buy it, so it cut the price in half, which is awesome because just the lotion is $10

The only thing I couldn't find was a GameStop with a used version of Shin Megumi Tensei: Devil Survivor, so that I could just get the instruction booklet. I like collecting things like that, and I sort of want the instructions and tips, because I sort of have no idea what I'm doing in the game, even if it's hella fun.

Unfortunately, halfway through my shopping joy, I started coughing harder. =___=;; It's pretty bad now. I hate unproductive (a.k.a. non-phlem producing) coughs. Dry coughs just hurts my throat and chest and I know that mucus is lingering somewhere.

My voice is pretty much bullfrog-like. I'm going between losing my voice completely and being able to talk, but I sound horrible.

Damn you allergy season. Damn you.

Soothsayer
Caesar!

CAESAR
Ha! who calls?

CASCA
Bid every noise be still: peace yet again!

CAESAR
Who is it in the press that calls on me?
I hear a tongue, shriller than all the music,
Cry 'Caesar!' Speak; Caesar is turn'd to hear.

Soothsayer
Beware the ides of March.

CAESAR
What man is that?

BRUTUS
A soothsayer bids you beware the ides of March.

CAESAR
Set him before me; let me see his face.

CASSIUS
Fellow, come from the throng; look upon Caesar.

CAESAR
What say'st thou to me now? speak once again.

Soothsayer
Beware the ides of March.

CAESAR
He is a dreamer; let us leave him: pass.

Looks like it's technology fail day around here. Gaia has died on me, LJ isn't sending me comment reply e-mails, and my connection is super slow. I suppose this is a message from the powers that be that I should play video games on my DS.

>_>;;

So... everyone in the know knows that I've been absent lately because I've been raping the hell out of playing Dissidia: Final Fantasy. It's just so fun and there's so much to do, and the game rewards you constantly for things.I'm currently trying to finish Shade Impulse I with all the characters (just need Warrior of Light and Onion Knight), before I move on to Shade Impulse II. I have, of course, already finished the Destiny Odysseys with all characters at least twice each.

Playing this game so much has led to some wonderful observations and geekery.

-- FUCK YEAH SEPHIROTH. I unlocked him as a playable character (as well as his alternate outfit) as soon as I had enough points. Let me tell you, having Sephiroth run around half naked and killing things is endlessly fun. And he has a really really... I guess it would be beautiful way of fighting. He doesn't make too many extraneous movements, so he's very fast and deadly. He fights like he expects to kill everyone he touches with one strike. And that's usually the case!

Unfortunately, that also means that because he moves like he will OHKO everything, he has bad recovery time after an attack. >_>;; Seriously, after he connects an attack, he kind of stands with his sword out before a sort of flourish, which means if he doesn't OHKO (and I don't make him dodge fast enough after), he's completely open for a counterattack.

But it's okay, because I HAVE SEPHIROTH RUNNING AROUND HALF NAKED AND KILLING THINGS. Also, yes, he likes to set stuff on fire. His EX Mode attack (a.k.a. Limit Break) looks exactly like when he set Nibelheim on fire, and he's standing in front of the raging flames. Bravo, Squeenix. Bravo.

-- Have a massive hard-on for Firion. He's just so... woobie. He's an awesome fighter, which makes my life easier. But his dream of wild roses is just so cute. And he makes Cloud run around to rescue his rose which was stolen by Sephiroth. Bwahahahah. Hoenstly, why aren't there more Firion/Cloud fics, huh? I mean, really.

-- Kept expecting Tidus to burst into tears during his chapter, but he didn't! Also, he is fast, which makes me happy.

-- On a related note, Jecht, you are like the worst dad ever. But you teasing Tidus about crying like a pussy is hilarious. You are still a bastard though, and I fucking hate that you spam your attacks. You keep killing me if I don't get away. :/

-- Cecil, you are so so pretty. But that doesn't excuse you from being an absolute bitch to play. Why must you be so slow in Dark Knight form? And you jump like there's a ton of bricks attached to your feet. And WHY CAN'T YOU JUST START OUT IN PALADIN FORM? My life would be so much easier if I didn't have to do an airborn HP attack just to get you into you SO MUCH BETTER AND STRONGER mode.

Just... stand there and look pretty. :x

-- Squall... *hee* ♥ ♥ ♥ I have nothing coherent to say about Squall, except that he's badass and faster than I thought he'd be. Oyes, I will indeed spam all your close-range combos. ilu. ♥

-- Cloud... ♥ ♥ ♥ *explodes into sticky goo all over the place* Less emo than in Advent Children, but not as dorky as in the original FFVII game. But you can equip him with a Snowboard so it's all good! He's not as fast as I'd like, unless he's using certain attacks, but it's okay because his sword pretty much lets him Defense Crush everyone else.

Also, you can equip crossdressing accessories onto him (I really need to get my hands on that set), that gives him extra bonus boosts. Seriously. It's some set of accessories that is only equippable on the girls in the game. And Cloud. Bwahahaha. Yet another point in Squeenix's favor.

Okay, I'm done with my geeky squeeing for now.

*rolls away*

For those on my flist who are interested, but not really following the news yet, Tokyo Game Show has already started. It's in day two already. :3 I haven't seen any really good announcements yet, but I figure I'll keep tabs on stuff I find interesting (and you might too).

-- Nintendo is dropping the prices on the Wii by $50. That means the system is now only $199. I can confirm this, since I've got a Toys-R-Us ad in my house right now that is advertising the system.

----> This is not only to compete with Playstation and XBox, which have been dropping prices recently, but also timed to match up with the release of the new Wii Sports Resort game, and the Wii Motion Plus.

-- Sony dropped the price of the PS3 by $100 and has released (or will release) the new PS3 Slim version. So for $299 you get a 120GB harddrive, instead of the current (fat) models, which I think are 80GB for the same price. Kind of old news by now, but interesting given how the "console wars" are heating up.

-- Sony also dropped the price of the PSP-3000 by nearly $50, but only in Japan. But in Japan, the PSP base price is more than in the US (over $200 once you convert from yen). I dunno if this means they'll be dropping the US (and UK, for you people across the pond) prices too. But it's pretty much to put the PSP Go into a better position.

----> Also, Sony is apparently going to be running a dual-console strategy between the PSP and PSP Go, instead of the PSP Go being an upgrade for the PSP. Bastards. Evidence of this is that they've pretty much shut down the rumored "trade-in" program for the PSP Go in the US, where you were supposed to trade-in your UMD games for a download to put on your PSP Go. So, that means if you buy the Go, you have to buy your games all over again. What a ripoff. Especially since the PSP Go is already priced like, $50 more than the PSP.

-- Squeenix has a rumored date of December 2009 (that's this December) for the release of FFXIII in Japan. Of course, that means the US (and rest of the world) has to wait longer, because of that crap idea to wait on releasing FFXIII for everyone else until the XBox version is done, too. *shakes fist*

-- Project Natal from Microsoft is still looking awesome.

-- Oh, and Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver apparently crushed the game sales when they were released in Japan. It almost makes me want to pick up one of them when they're released stateside. I love games where I can collect things. ♥

-- KINGDOM HEARTS: 358/2 DAYS COMES OUT IN ONLY FOUR DAYS OMG.

Sony finally announced their new PS3 Slims. And not only that, they've knocked $100 off the price of PS3s. Ahhhh... this makes me feel good because I knew there had to be a price drop coming soon, just so Sony could stay competitive. That and they're probably gearing up for when Squeenix unleashes its fury with a bunch of new games.

Slowly but surely, I get closer and closer to actually owning a console to play games on.

Surprise! Plants vs Zombies headed to more platforms.

HELL YES.

I love playing the trial of this game, and I am seriously close to actually buying it for PC. But if they come out with a version for the DS, I will buy it instantly instead. This is such a great, cute game, and it would work perfectly with the touchscreen.

*crosses fingers*

I know there are some Shin Megami Tensei fans on my flist, so this question is for you, since I have no idea what the game(s) are like.

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor is coming out this week for the DS. I am interested in it, but don't want to waste my GameStop giftcard on a game I might not like playing or wouldn't be interested in. So, who out there has played the Shin Megami Tensei games? There's like... a whole bunch of them or something, right? What kind of a game is it? I read something about how it's like Pokemon, but with demons or something and I don't know if that's true or not.

Please help me! Or else I'll just save my giftcard for 358/2 Days.

You know what the world needs? Puzzle Quest fanfics. Why aren't there any Puzzle Quest fanfics?! I mean, my wizard totally has a hard-on for Syrus Darkhunter. Too bad he's all emo over his undead girlfriend, but that sorta just makes it angstier and more awesome.

No, this has not been caused by me obsessively re-playing the game. >_>;; OMG Syrus come back! Don't leave my party! I didn't know what letting that dude go would doooooooo.
