Games are kinda fucked for me right now. I just beat Heavy Rain and Beyond back to back and have been trying to hack away at my backlog, but little inspires me.

I have the day off, I am going to see if any randoms can help me with Borderlands 2 and then try Far Cry 3 again.

EDIT: Or fuckitall, I may just play some old ass PS1 and N64 games.

I'll be playing this for awhile...rather than giving up (not due to difficulty) because it stops sucking arse after its shitastic opening and I wouldn't want to play anything else now:

Hmm, maybe I'll play Heretic. Modern games are cutting it for me this weekend, so maybe retro PC will.

Are you going to be spending one night in Bangkok?

Also, is the paypaya salad as good in thailand as it is in our foreign restaurants?

Fam it su review captain toad

Reviewer 1 - 8

Captain Toad and Toadette are irresistibly cute with their uncertain walking (laughing). The stages which rotate in the 3D space as you progress have various mechanics and routes packed in, and while they aren't very big in size, they are still produced neatly to be enjoyable. As game mechanics have many gimmicks which are familiar from the Super Mario Bros. series, anyone can play. There are over 70 stages and replaying is fun, too.

Reviewer 2 - 9

The stages are like three dimensional puzzles which you can observe from all directions. When you get the grasp of the route and gimmicks, it feels great. It is convenient that there are several ways to control the direction of the camera. Every course isn't just about getting to the regular goal since if you aim to obtain the super diamond and a title of achievement, the difficulty increases which is excellent. Variety like hopping on a rail car and seeing the stage from Captain Toad's viewpoint is also fun.

Reviewer 3 - 9

This is a product that everyone can play regardless of age or gender. While puzzle elements are strong, the game creates an original combination of action and mechanisms. It is fun to clear the stage after trying repeatedly by trial and error. There are boss fights and shooting scenes, so the variation is abundant. When you rotate the three dimensional world, visible things change so it is easy the get confused and feel like you are straying into another world.

Reviewer 4 - 8

Even if the size of fields is small, it is very fun to progress your way towards the goal by rotating the viewpoint and by understating gimmicks of each field. A pleasant aspect of the game is that you can play stages easily one-by-one without losing interest. Taken measures for giving help at the times when you are stumped are also welcome. There may be a feeling that the volume is insufficient, but because the price is also reasonable, I'd say it is enough.

I might actually get Captain Toad. I enljoyed his levels in SM Cats, and it'll only be $40 too.

Anyone getting Sonic Boom for Wii U or 3DS? It comes out tomorrow. I'm curious if they pulled it off or not. It actually doesn't look bad in the gameplay videos, especially the 3DS version.

Yeah, I'm getting it too.  The wife realy loved those levels, and the art style is just such a joy.  The whole thing looks as if you could just reach in to the TV screen and mess around with it.

Well thanks Aspro.

It could have been better but hey, what can you do? Just move on and give everyone the middle finger while forging a stronger path. Even the toughest warriors have to go through trials at some point. You can either sulk in a corner, or raise your finger high.
