( First post in forever, orz )

Well. I now know where I'm pre-ordering Revelations from. EFF YEAH.

lol with my sisters having completed their first FF game, they've been considering others, and one of them was mentioning how the Dissidia games and Dirge of Cerberus looked cool and JUST MAY be worth getting a PSP for -- so the other day, my mom randomly comes home from Best Buy with a PSP and Dissidia: Duodecim as a surprise. Awesome.

And let me say HAHA I SUCK AT THIS GAME. At least, I started off well, then sank into a pit of fail for every match I played, but then I went back after some time and HO CRAP I WON LIKE TWO MATCHES. I've been sticking with Lightning for the most part, since I have a Thing about concentrating on one character until I get the hang of it, and I figure learning to fly between her classes is good reflex practice; I've ventured off a few times and tried Sephiroth -- mostly because my sisters encouraged me so we could each have a FFVII character -- WHO FIGHTS LIKE FREAKING VERGIL, I MAY ADD. B| /bitter memories foreverrrrr DMC you scarred my life idek who Laguna is, but he uses GUNS, so I plan to try him and Tidus out, too, once I rise above Suck.

But Lord, this game is gorgeous -- the gameplay, the graphics, the battle system, the insane amount of unlockables ALTERNATE COSTUMES YESSSSS. ♥ Color me honestly surprised that Square Enix could make such a well put-together fighting game -- because you all know I'm biased as heck against FF, yeah yeah, I hate turn-based etc. etc.

OVERALL IT IS AWESOME.

This. This. THIS MIGHT OFFICIALLY BE THE BEST THREAD I HAVE EVER EFFING SEEN. X'DDDD

+OVER 9000 POINTS OF AWESOME AND WIN TO THAT WESKER PLAYER AND THREE DOZEN INTERNETS

OH GOD

AWWWW YEAAAAAH Hilde was confirmed for Soul Calibur V. \o\ \o/ /o/ Even more exciting is that her basic stats were released and SHE HAS CHILDREN. omg. omg. PLZ TO BE WANTING TO KNOW WHO THE DADDY IS, NAMCO.

Even more awesome is that she's now an exiled princess on the run as a mercenary. In Siegfried's mercenary group. klsdjlkfsjkldjfsdfs I HAVE NO WORDS FOR THIS. >3< Totes time for a canon update for the muse, come next year. 8D

( Latest video game ventures, sans spoilers. )

And RE: Nemesis (...ahaha pun not intended) in ~ULTIMATE MvC3~: yeah, he looks awesome. No, I am not convinced anymore than before to buy this stupid thing. >|

( CAPSLOCKY RANT TIME + A GIF BECAUSE I HATE CAPCOM )

Uhhhh what else. The last few Naruto chapters have been epic. I have found me a new 4-man BroTP, as alory_shannon would say. |D

I just completed book #11 of The Dresden Files, and I just reserved book #12 at the library -- but much to my dismay, I found out that the latest book, #13, has a waiting list of 38 people.

;3;

And I am sorely lacking in the funds necessary to just go out and buy a hardcover book atm, so obvs I am doomed to live in suspense.

AW YEAH saw Captain America the other day, so you know what that means.

RANTY REVIEW TIEM

( Spoilerrrs + an irrelevant rant )

ALSO, I am working on those meme requests; I've just been sidetracked with reading The Dresden Files, and when I'm not doing that, I've taken up playing Phoenix Wright and OH MY GOD I have wanted to punch few characters in the face as vehemently as I wanted to punch Edgeworth YOU CONDESCENDING LITTLE SNAKE. >| AUGH. It does not help that I tend to take everything in life personally.

Anyway, yes, I'm working on the requests, but I've also set myself back with the crippling fact that my definition of "snippet" can apparently mean 1200+ words. B|;;; I don't even.

So, I finally got around to watching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 -- yes, part 1, because after the seventh book I just Did Not Care Anymore, and I actually haven't seen the fifth movie in 100% full yet, or the sixth one at all.

Anyway--

o.m.g. The HHr scenes. ;_____; <333333 THE DANCE SCENE WAS THE MOST ADORABLY CUTE AND SWEET THING I HAVE EVER SEEN they are so, so beautiful together wryyyyyyyy.

Still my #1 OTP forever. :| For srs.

That aside... the movie was about 100x more tolerable than the book, since it A) shuffled those ridiculous plot holes and plot devices under the rug, B) made Ron WAY less emo and thus MUCH more tolerable, and C) cut way back on the hours and hours of pointless emo-ing and page-filling angst in general. But. Yeaaaaah, wtf was that. "ZIP UP MY DRESS PLZ?" moment. Ugh. B| DELEEEEEETE.

And I am laughing forever at the largely negative reaction that ~ULTIMATE~ MvC3 received from the crowd at Comic-Con during the Capcom panel. >D That was truth and justice at its beautiful finest. GET USED TO THE SILENCE, CAPCOM -- THAT'S ALL YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR IN THE HOLE YOU'RE DIGGING YOURSELF.

( Day 20 - Favorite genre. )

CAPCOM, YOU BACKSTABBING INGRATE.

I defend the heck out of you time and time again, give you way too much money, and you pull a Namco Bandai and give us a half-tried version of MvC3 only to release the bigger, better, fixed up and prettier version? WTF IS THIS I HATE YOU.

I guess I should've seen it coming after all that SF bullcrap, but seriously. Barely four months after the original release?

And. Dude.

Nemesis? You're including Nemesis (among others WTH PHOENIX)?? HOW DARE YOU TEMPT ME WITH SUCH AWESOME, YOU JERKFAIS. >| Double wtf at the fact that half these characters are ones you openly deconfirmed in the past.

I DO NOT CARE IF IT'S ONLY $40 AT ITS RELEASE. If I buy it -- IF I buy it -- I'm getting it used. Partly so I save, partly so you don't get any of the cut.

You cheap whore. B|

The ones getting on my nerves nearly as much are the people going "OMG WHERE IS KEN/LEON/CLAIRE?!" Dude, Ken is a copy of Ryu, who's already a copy of Akuma, and Leon and Claire are nowhere near qualified OR unique enough to be in this game of fighters so stop whining. STFU AND USE YOUR HEADS, PLZKTHX.

/RAAAAAAAAGE

So, my dad borrowed Dead Space 2 from a friend, and despite that I haven't played DS1 yet, I figured I'd go ahead and play 2 while we have it since I'm already spoiled like whoa for the first game, anyway.

Dude. This game

is a beautiful thing. :| <333

I AM KIND OF IN LOVE WITH IT. obvs I just have something for games involving dismemberment and large amounts of blood.

My sisters also got FFVII, and while I don't have any interest in playing it myself, I am jumping in to watch on occasion, and I gotta say, it's... not what I expected, lol. Aeris is way different than I always perceived her to be from RPing and whatnot -- and I admit, I kind of like everyone so far. PLUS ALL THESE ODD TERMS THAT I'VE PICKED UP OVER THE YEARS ARE STARTING TO MAKE SENSE -- LIKE "SOLDIER" AND "AVALANCHE" AND ALL THAT. Btw, Tao, Jill-muse totes approves of Tifa's "I'LL SMASH THEM" threat to that sleazeball. >BD

( Day 17 - Favorite antagonist. )

I'm too lazy to host this pic in two places, so has a link to my latest baking endeavor.

AND NOW, finally, my RE: Mercs 3D review.

( /cues Kuroyume's 'Alone' for this )

OVERALL -- Mercs: very, very awesome game. I'm getting my $40 worth, easily. There were a few nitpicky things that I didn't like *COUGH*wtfWeskerCOUGH* but it's a gameplay-centered game, so that's mostly what matters. The game had difficulty starting once -- to the point where I had to turn off the system and remove the cartridge and then insert it again -- and it entirely froze on me during an online match last night, again resulting in a manual reboot, but my sisters haven't had such problems with their copy, so mine could just be screwy or smth. If it does it again, I'll probably go back to Best Buy and trade it for another copy.

My 3DS is fully charged. I am ready to go. :|

/WISHING YOU HAD MIDNIGHT HOURS, BEST BUY.

And now have an awesome/hilarious video, f-list, because I love my cartoons and this is one of my favorite scenes of anything ever.
