Imitating Bone-Breaking Sounds With Celery And Other Stuff
It has been quite some time since my last blog so I decided to make a new one. Yay!
This summer has been quite short. It was like yesterday when I arrived home from school to waste whole three months doing nothing. Hold on a second... it was yesterday! You bastards! What did you do with my precious three months!? It`s a conspiracy I`ll tell you! They`re all against me! Oh, wait, blog. Right. I`ll leave my conspiracy theories for later, but I`ll get you goddamn government scum, I swear!
-----------------------------------------
About two weeks ago I finished The Darkness and wrote a review about it. It seems to be one of those overlooked titles and I wish more people would give it a chance, although I can`t blame them for quiting because the game literally farts in your face in the beginning. However it is a good game and tells a great story, so I recommend it for anyone.
Along with The Darkness I also picked up Killzone 2 but I`m not playing it right now. Not that it`s bad or anything, just seeing Radec`s face on the cover makes me wanna hide into corner and cry. Yes, I attempted to beat in on Elite and failed. Miserably.
-----------------------------------------
On a happier side, I bought Valkyria Chronicles and now I`m like
It was quite an amazing day actually. I had found this super-cheap used videogame store in another town so me and a friend went to check it out. Much to my surprise, they had a hard copy of Siren: Blood Curse which I certainly didn`t expect to find and I also bought Heavenly Sword and Ratchet & Clank Future. After that my friend suggested to take the trolley to the other part of the city to check out the shopping centre but I was like: "Oh no man, let`s just go home." I so glad he convinced me. There we were, browsing around until I saw it. Between the copies of Far Cry 2 and Fallout 3 there it was, the game I thought I could get only though Amazon or Ebay. Daaaaaaamn.
-----------------------------------------
Just yesterday I finished Heavenly Sword. I had decided to finish it in one sitting and so I did - it took me about seven hours. I gotta say I was very impressed. I mean, you get to blow up like thousands of dudes, what is there not to like? The sniping parts were pretty awesome as well (when you tur off the motion controls) and shooting guys in the groin in slo-mo just doesn`t get old. Actually I felt that the length was appropriate, because the button mashing combat got tedious near the end.Good thing that I also got play as Nariko`s sister Kai. There`s just something absurdly hot about her.
Oh crap, wrong picture.
By the way, did you know that the developers of HS used celery to imitate bone-breaking sounds? Funny, I never thought of how developers did it before.

School is just round the corner and I, like all of you, welcome it
***SPOILER***
Unfortunately, this year will be my toughest yet, not only because last semester was the high point of my procrastination but I also have to get a big-ass research work done until Christmas and apply to driving lessons so I can get my license next summer and go to a car trip to Germany with my dad. Also I promised myself to study harder this year.Well, I had made similar promises last year and a year before that, but it was different. Now I mean it. Seriously.

I was like, thiiiiiiiiis close to getting The Darkness a few days ago, but then I realized that I must have spent at least a few hundred to a thousand dollars on gaming/media during the summer, so that's where I drew the line. I'll pick it up sometime soon though.
EFF YEAH VALKYRIA CHRONICLES!!!! It's prolly like, one of my favoritest games on the PS3
I should really get my license too, but I'm too much of a slacker to bother.
Oh, and nice job on snagging VC. My second favorite PS3 game thus far. Enjoy.
Also I have to save up, alot of games r coming this fall !
