they that Doge Meme up as an advertisement at my local subway
my reaction to seeing it

Oh no no no no no. I hate when companies use memes, it's the least professional thing ever... A cable company here used success kid to try and appeal to students, but we ended up laughing at them so much.

Looks like tomorrow (possibly tonight while I wait for the GF to get home), I'm starting up Lords of Shadow again followed by a run of Mirror of Fate.  That way I'm all up to speed with the story of the mini-series. I think it's been long enough that I can put myself through Lords of Shadow again.

But damn them Chupacabras.

Federal Return came in! Video Card time!

I'm hoping that the upcoming release of Final Fantasy X/X2 HD outsells Lightening Returns. I know a lot of people like FFXIII, but to me it seemed like the final nails in the Final Fantasy coffin, officially killing this once great series. Maybe if X/X2 HD does better than Lightening Returns Square might finally pull their heads out their butts, and bring this once great series to its former glory. Just a thought. . .

You would figure Squenix would have done a lot of things and pulled the head out of their ass. Like porting over more DQ games. Like doing an HD version of FF VII. Etc.

Meanwhile, at Squeenix Japan:

MORE CELL PHONE GAMES! MOAR! MOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!

Final Fantasy VII HD-remake?  Old news.  Never going to happen.

How about Secret Of Evermore?!  I love games with animal companions, anthropomorphic or otherwise.  Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Fallout 3, Dragon Age: Origins, Legend Of Heroes, Chrono Trigger...  Good times.

You ever play PRIMAL (PS2, iirc)?

Agreed.

Speaking of remakes: Why haven't we gotten a RE2 and RE3 remake or HD treatment? We got it on the first game (which was freaking AWESOME!) and then they skipped straight to RE4 (which was already one of the best looking games of that generation, so it could have waited). RE2 is the best in the series with RE3 trailing right behind it, come on Capcom!

May never happen but its among the highest request of Squenix.

I know there are several fan-made projects in the works, however these will never become more than internet roms seeing how Capcom owns the rights to RE. In addition to that, if Capcom has shown us, the fans, anything over the years it is they won't give us what we actually want, but what THEY THINK we want. Seeing how their finances are in the toilet right now, maybe they should rethink their strategy. . .

They did! They're now focusing on DLC sales.

Yes, REALLY.

You haven't lived until you've been trash digging drunk.
I spen all afternoon with the other husbands while my wife was at a baby shower. Now, I've been to a game store and Goodwill and I'm in no shape to drive. My wife is driving and boy is she proud.

I figured that while I was making my patch orders, I would listen to some proper music. Even if I have to turn it up so the sound of the embroidery machines doesn't drown it out....
