Surrender

June 28, 2009

I am now weary of code and paint
For I live to a simple creed of craft and games;
I’ll reel through a few months somehow,
Then I’ll quit them altogether.

I don’t write about movies or TV I like even thought they can be awesome, well largely due to the host of reviews out there you can look for. There was this Sweeney Todd I wrote a long time back, was in fact a musical, a solid one with pretty CGI. That’s the ‘wowzer’ factor.

If you are fond of animated films, or not, you will certainly enjoy Coraline and it’s squiffy art direction in stop motion goodness. I am totally impressed by the character design and lighting sets, not to mention the puppeteering, this had to be my favourite movie till date. (I know… all time fav still is Gladiator by Ridley Scott) You’re welcome to grab the DVD from stores.

It’s gonna be a thrill this year, or specifically this holiday (october++) with E3’s showcase of several games: Assassin’s Creed 2 (for it’s art design and visuals), Dragon Age: Origins (gore feast) L4D 2 for the sweet daylight maps, Modern Warfare 2, a fast multi and I love the liner story from the original and Bioshock 2. On top of that, there’s the AoC patch 1.05 offering a hatful of fixes and character balance. I like hefty patch notes.

Charlotte

June 2, 2009

“No sleepy on mah flank jacket!” blurted Charlotte. A rather mused Tiddles was shocked out of his reverie revving around a dime to meet a colossal figure in orange, pinning Tiddles with her accusing eyes. “Meeoow (good griefing twit).” said the cat, and did a stretch and yawn emote.
