Blog of LIES!

Due to non-participation in the ghostly experience blog, I will not be posting the UFO encounter. Number one, it's not as interesting, and number two... OK, just the one I guess, it's a pretty boring story.

So, no UFO story. I'm a LIAR!
Instead, you get some random stuff!

I am waiting on the Kindle 2 from Godly CAG thelonepig. Can't wait to get that thing and do something a bit more constructive on my 3 hours daily commute! Recently, I have just been playing my wife's PSP. It's pink and has a purple Nightmare Before Christmas skin on it. Sadly, I am still never the most effeminate man on the train. Damn Japanese girly-boys.
Anyway, I was able to finish Jeanne D'arc or however it's spelled. That was quite fun. Then I started Valkyria Profile Lenneth. Wow... I actually took out my headphones because the voice acting was literally the worst I have EVER heard in any game. How did anyone ever let that thing through quality control? I was only 10 minutes or so into the game and I simply couldn't take anymore. To add insult to injury, I found the game completely non-fun after a total of 4 hours.
That Kindle can't get here soon enough!

Also, working on the new tradelist at the moment. Right on track to get it posted up on the first. I'm interested to see how it will stack up to the old list when it's one year old. The goal is to get an even higher rating in the new thread. I think more views is out of the question though.

Hmmm... What else? Oh, so I realized that I have gained 36 pounds since I moved to Japan. Yes, 36. Holy shit I am fat now! See what having a job that requires 10 hours of sitting a day will do to you? I have to take care of this. You really don't notice it creeping up on your over 4 years or so man...

I have also decided that the new list will have a "dv8mad remote control". I have a huge backlog of games that I have yet to play as do most of you. I keep thinking that I will get through them, but I can never stick with just one. From the 1st on, I will allow CAGs to tell me what game I need to complete next.
Yes, for the next full year staring August 1st, I will only play the games that CAG votes me to play (aside from arcade games if my wife wants to). I don't plan to keep any of them after they have been completed, so after each game is finished, it will go to the tradelist. Should be interesting to see what is chosen.

One last update on the blind lowball. Still waiting on the last of the Deathnote stuff for dinobot to arrive so I can get his package out. Also, hockystealth will finally be getting his package packed and shipped now that I have gone out and grabbed more stuff for the mystery box.

I suppose that's about it for now!

Hmm either you will end up playing games people want to buy or games you will hate because people want to pull the dv8mad strings.

An interesting idea none the less.

I read a lot and really want a Kindle but just can't justify the price. Half of my books come from the library, about a quarter from the used book store, and the other quarter from new books. It would take something like four years for the Kindle to meet its break even point with me, and at that point I'm sure we'll have wireless chips in our head beaming information to our contact lenses.

Well, at least during your commute you can sit down and do something rather than worrying about other people swerving into your lane suddenly. At my last job I gained a good 30 pounds...desk jobs really take a toll on your waistline.

You got married man, of course you're gonna gain a lot of weight!

You should play the Xenosaga trilogy next!

I was going to post one of my ghost stories, but moving kinda put the kibosh on that.

Oh, and Dist is right. Marriage will put weight on you - especially if you're poor.

Maybe it's me, but I tend to not find most voice acting in games bad, especially with Valkyrie Profile. It didn't bother me at all. But I agree with the game being not fun though. I restarted it like 3 times to try to see if maybe I just needed to play it at once to really have fun... nope, I always get bored and switch to something else.

Asians have a phenomenon they know as the sitting ghost which I have experienced multiple times :( Very disconcerting
