Quite funny. For some reason zavvi the online retailer I pre-ordered Anarchy Reigns from kept sending me messages saying "sorry we haven't sent it to you yet, we're working on it etc etc" for weeks now. In fact I got the most recent one today when I thought that was too much like fate telling me not to bother with the game, so I just went into my account and cancelled my order for it. Your impressions and disappointment in the game have been instrumental in my choosing to do that. I'm not really an online gamer, so even if the community was still active, I wouldn't benefit from it. I'm sad for the game, but I'm pleased I at least saved 20 euro by not getting it

Glad that worked out for you then. I think the best way to sum it up was "MadWorld without the fun or charm or creative violence." It was really just a mess, and I can't believe Platinum made it. There were a few moments where you see how brilliant the game could hae been. For instance there was one battle where you team up with 2 other NPCs to fight this giant squid/Kraken monster that actually plays out like a good God of War battle without all the QTE's, and that was just fun from the second it started until it ended. Unfortunately most of the campaigns focus around a more mundane goal like "kill 100 enemies in 5 minutes." Worst of all was the story. I still can't figure out who said, "hey let's take Jack Cayman, all around bad ass, and show him crying so we can humanize him."
God people are stupid...
It's snowing! A lot!
Blech. My motivation to play ANYTHING for more than a few minutes at a time has up and went. (The only exception being Fire Emblem, but mostly mid-day when I am having lunch somewhere, or when I am snuggled up under the covers before going to sleep at night.) I have played a good way into the campaigns of Halo 4 and BlOps 2, the first chapter of Walking Dead, a good ways into Last Story and La Mulana... Nothing's holding my interest. I even have 1 and a half Borderlands 2 DLC expansions to play and... nada!
I have no work to do for the next 4 days, yet I am not playing anything at the moment. Blah.
Y NO NI NO KU NI ??

I haven't had a PS3 for many, many months. I have the game, now I just need to hook up the system.
Just finished The Walking Dead. That ending:
Yeah, I had forgotten. It figures why you haven't shown up on my psn list for months

Rumor - Nobuo Uematsu confirms Fantasy Life for localizations in 2013
Oh dear... this might really be happening. Crap. If this really happens, along with "Project Happiness" I'm afraid I may have to get a 3DS again. Oh well, I can get the XL this time. And maybe I'll find a way to pretend it's a present for the kids.
These dry spells suck. In time you will get back to playing.
I've moved from one zombie game to another. I started Re6 this morning and so far, I am really enjoying it. I started Leon's campaign because that is the only one I played in the demo. I didn't care for the demo, but something about my playthrough just clicked with me. It was a lot of fun. The survival horror aspect is completely gone, but for an action game, it's pretty good.
Enjoy. Its good.
So, Madworld

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileDon't you have some Starcraft to be playing or something?
Bummer. That's where I was in January.
I am on the final level of Crackdown 2 and there appears to be some glitching. It is a relatively easy level compared to what came before it, but ... well it is glitching. I want to beat it today, this morning more specifically.
I started playing El Shaddai again. Still dieing over and over and getting the shaft with checkpointing. I want to finish that one too. We'll see today if it goes back on the shelf forever or if I break through.
OK so I finally ordered my computer from a reputable place this time it should be awsome! Got the best price with free sign for UPS1 B&H photo in NYC is an amazing store!

Tell what you think of my new laptop gaming monster!
I have avoided opening this door for a long time.
But last night, I checked out the PS classics available for DL to PS3, Vita and PSP... and I'm screwed. There are so many RPGs available from the PS1 era that I have put off playing because they would be so much better on a portable. And now I can get them for $5-$10 each.
My Vita will once again have a reason to be charged. Except... well, the DL sizes and my broadband cap.
My next area for exploration is what Nintendo has to offer for Dl on the 3DS. I have also avoided that for years now, just through willful ignorance.
