But, Sky Sanctuary isn't yellow enough! >_>

Yeah, one actual thing that bugs about Sky Sanctuary though is putting 3 of the 5 Red Rings right at the very end, only able to get one per playthrough of the level. Didn't take that long to get all of 'em, but still seemed rather odd compared to the other levels.

Also, at least the downscaling isn't as horribly jagged as Unleashed's. I was able to read things alright on my fair-sized roundscreen I've still got lying around.

inFAMOUS 2

While it for the most part improves over the 1st game, I miss being able to absorb energy when grinding along power lines. Also, the usual black and white effect when near death can go [tornado fang] itself.

Any sort of pop is all the same [parasitic bomb] to me since I can't stand carbonation.

Yeah, already played Boxing a fair bit. Got only 5 Stars I think. Gets rather repetitive after a while.

Gonna try and get over 1000 in Chef again though.

Game & Watch Gallery 4

Haven't played this since I lost my GBA and all of its games. Quite the nostalgiagasm now. If there's one thing I certainly haven't forgotten, it's the catchy music (♥

Rain Shower

and

Briefing

). Maybe now since I bother to read all the messages and instructions, I'll unlock everything. Only ever unlocked Chef and a few Gallery things before.

Thief 2X: Shadows of the Metal Age

Certainly darker than the original Thief 2. Has plenty of violence and even low-polygon nudity. Pretty professional mod nonetheless. Manages to really capture the open-ended design of the official games, while also adding some new gimmicks/items that flow well with the existing formula. The story is also pretty decent and after watching some developer commentary, I really appreciate all the effort and detail that went into its placement alongside canon. Also I like how the menus are far more interesting than any of the originals.

It's unlockable in any version I would assume, and like all other extra songs can be played on any stage. In fact, there aren't any songs from the JP/EU soundtrack in the unlockable song collection. Just Stardust Speedway and Sonic Boom (which I swear was taken right out of Brawl given its shortass loop).

Huh. At least your manual actually has something though. Mine's only 4 pages not counting the French version. Just brief info on set up, controls and warranty.

Edit: If that even is a manual. I can't tell for sure.

Actually it's Cash Cash according to the article I got the vid from.

Though I do hope Crush 40's cover of Sonic Boom is in here if that version of Super Sonic Racing is.

Grand Theft Auto Complete Pack.

I like how this was $2 cheaper than GTA IV Complete Edition. Awesome sales logic.

Amazing buys, but for the love of all, play those VANILLA first time 'round. No mods. All part of the experience.

Sure sure. I only went through the first map before my friend lagged out and crashed anyways.

The Lion King on Blu-Ray as an X-Mas gift to my sister.

Half-Life 2 as per my friend's insistence. Tried to play the Synergy co-op mod with him, but his ping was around 900 despite living maybe a few kilometres away.

The Max Payne Bundle on Steam. Was on sale for about 1/4 the price, so I figured 'sure why not'.

He's saying there's a lot of older characters that just up and disappeared with no in-game mention whatsoever. Though I doubt they're as overrated and highly demand for a return like Mima.

Only coming to mind are Mighty, Ray, Fang/Nack, Bark, and Bean. All of which appear on Missing/Wanted posters in City Escape.

Also love how they managed to add a bit of Marble Garden Zone in there. Fits well with Sky Sanctuary.

Really hyped up for this game now.

Had a power outage that lasted about two hours. Got outta school 15 minutes early because of it though. Still annoyed with our incompetent hydro for screwing up to begin with. That's the 2nd or 3rd time this past month. After the power came back on things were going about their usual. But then came a notice of a well respected member's death on another site I lurk around. Rather grim day now. I'm filled with a lot of regret for having not gotten to know them more.

On a lighter note, today was the start of the weekly Lumberjack Tuesday. Gonna have to get some plaid first, but this'll be the only school 'activity' I'll ever be taking part in.

A married couple went to the hospital together to have their baby delivered.Upon their arrival, the doctor said he had invented a new machine that would transfer a portion of the mother's labor pain to the father. He asked if they were willing to try it out. They were both very much in favor of it. The doctor set the knob to 10 percent for starters, explaining that even 10 percent was probably more pain than the father had ever experienced before. But as the labor progressed, the husband felt fine, so he asked the doctor to go ahead and bump it up a notch. The doctor then adjusted the machine to 20 percent pain transfer. The husband was still feeling fine. The doctor checked the husband's blood pressure and pulse and was amazed at how well he was doing. At this, they decided to try for 50 percent. The husband continued to feel quite well. Since it was obviously helping out his wife considerably, he encouraged the doctor to transfer ALL the pain to him. The wife delivered a healthy baby with virtually no pain. She and her husband were ecstatic. When they arrived home, the postman was dead on their porch.
