Amusing subject line for some spam I just deleted.
Anyway, quick games related update:
-- Mother 3 is about as awesome as I expected it to be. I'm currently up to Chapter 5.
-- Silent Hill Homecoming is also a cool game, which is a relief after the comparatively disappointing Origins and The Room (comparative to the first three games, that is). I've heard people griping about the control scheme and combat, but I personally thought it was great. It takes a little bit to get used to, as it's different than the previous games, but it's nowhere near as horrible as some are making it out to be. So far, I've gotten the UFO and the Bogeyman endings, which leaves three to go.
-- I loaded up Spore tonight, for the first time in two or three weeks or so. My goal simply was to reach the center of the galaxy, finally. It was fairly easy. The Grox declared war on me, but whatever. I mostly ignored them as they attacked me (and very early on killed the rest of my fleet) while I was moving toward the center. If they got me down to around half life or so, I'd simply drop down into an unclaimed system, kill the Grox who followed, then plop down some colonies and terraform up to T3, drop the uber-turret and give all of the colonies max defenses (which I do for all of my colonies now anyway as a matter of course). Then I'd refill health and energy and resume my wild dash to the center. Reaching the center is... fairly amusing, I guess, but nothing to write home about.
-- And lastly, I put in an order today for Fable 2 and Castlevania Order of Ecclesia, both of which are supposed to release tomorrow. And then Fallout 3 drops next week. After that I don't know what will be the next game I get or when, because starting next month and on into the foreseeable future, I'll likely be too strapped for cash to be buying too many more games for a while. :/
