We need to go to Vancouver so you can lay the smack down on that goon Bertuzzi! Wow, that's ugly. I mean, I'm not fan of the Avs but damn, no one deserves that. That's not a fight... It's just gross.
Anyway, in other hockey news, today is trade deadline day, so the trades will be fast and furious, so I'll be paying a little attention to that as I do my work this morning.
Here is Hugh Jackman being funny. (Quicktime)
Last night was an interesting night of RP. Arisia seems to have settled into a nice blue funk, though I guess that isn't that surprising, all things considered. Shiva is just amazingly angry. That will be interesting.
As for me, I'm going to the gym tonight. Wheeeee! Then I need to come home and do some laundry and pack to go house sitting for the next week and a half or so. I feel the old insecurities trying to creep up and I smack them down. I'll be fine. It isn't as if I won't be able to get ahold of anyone if something happens. Yeesh. You'd think I had a fear about living by myself.... No matter what, though, I think it will be a good thing to have time to myself. Me and a whole bunch of books and video games.
Curse you Mike, you and your not PS2 having self. I could have played FFX-2 to my heart's content! Ah well. I will make due, I'm sure. Oh, the hardship!

Date: 2004-03-09 08:58 am (UTC)Don't forget, there are three endings:
Normal ending, which you get no matter what.
Good ending, which plays after the credits and the normal ending you get if you do one last thing after defeating the bad guy.
Perfect ending, which plays after the good ending if you get the good ending and 100%... which is damned hard to do unless you play through a second time.

Anyway, you know where I live (or at least Kris does).

Date: 2004-03-09 09:19 am (UTC)I'm not all about X-Box. I prefer the PS2 and that's because I'm not a FPS player.
no subject
Date: 2004-03-09 09:30 am (UTC)X-Box also has some REALLY nice other games... Star Wars: Knight of the Old Republic is one of the best games that came out last year (though it's now available on the computer, too), and there's also Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee, which is the best fighting game EVAR.

Date: 2004-03-09 09:00 am (UTC)The X-Box is nice, I'll grant that... but why limit yourself to one system? I adore my X-Box, but there are many things the PS2 has that the X-Box doesn't...

Date: 2004-03-09 09:20 am (UTC)I am jonesing for the plethora of fine, fine RPG's that the PS2 has, but not to worry, my PS-2 on the X-box emulator is almost complete, muuahahahha! Sudeki, Fable, and Jade Empire, and the already out and PIMPING KOTOR should help bring parity in the asshat rpg exclusivity console wars ...

Date: 2004-03-09 09:31 am (UTC)The PS2 is about $50 now if you get it used. The X-Box is about $100 used. The Game Cube is about $75 used.
As long as you're not insisting on a brand-new system, they're really cheap and affordable.

Date: 2004-03-09 09:33 am (UTC)Oh, and I agree completely... KOTR is one of the best RPG games ever.
My personal favorite storyline is as a female lightsider, playing up the romance sidequest with Carth. That has one of the best storylines period.
The female darksider with the romance with Carth is also a nice one... but so much of the darkside storyline is boring and "I kill this person because it's easy to," so when the good part of the storyline shows up, it's not really worth it.

Date: 2004-03-09 10:10 am (UTC)Um... there is a lesbian love story that can be activated... but not with Bastila. She doesn't swing that way. But another female jedi character does...
If you kill Juhani, the rude female Jedi you meet shortly after arriving on Dantooine freaks out and flees in tears, and confronts you on Korriban... she and Juhani had been "companions."
Also on Korriban, there's a man who recognizes Juhani if you have her with you... he had loved Juhani, but she didn't care for him "that way."
Juhani is a lesbian. And it's very hard, but there is a romance possible with Juhani instead of Carth if you play a female character.

Cubicle neighbors?
Date: 2004-03-09 11:04 am (UTC)Any advice?
Re: Cubicle neighbors?
Date: 2004-03-09 11:09 am (UTC)Also, I'd appreciate it if you'd look towards the trivia on c_jyd's journal... I think you could help. If you're not already involved in the quiz thing.
