So here I was, at work, typing out a fantastic post for everyone when this tweet popped up
and I completely forgot what I was doing to spin ’round in my chair squeeing and cursing the fact that I can’t remember my steam password to be able to preorder from work.
fucksticks.
well for the rest of you, what are you waiting for? GET TO PREORDERING. And if you need incentive, check out this video for an example of the AMAZING music in the game.
Bad blogger, no posts!
I know. Sigh. 50-60 hour work weeks have a way of crushing any desire to do anything creative along with your soul, what can I say?
There’s been so much new geekery too! I have been learning to play D&D thanks to a few friends who don’t mind my reading things and then IMing them going “waaaaiiiitttttt I don’t get ittttt!”. (yes, I do whine like that to my friends, but they assure me that it’s endearing!) I’ve also been learning to play Magic: the Gathering, and let me tell you, I’m not half bad with a Pearled Unicorn. Any tips on deck building are welcome though! I’ve mostly just been playing Packwar to try to get used to the flow of things, but I’ve got a tournament of sorts to go to in a few weeks, so I have to build my first deck! I’ll get a list of cards up here soon for the ease of helping me.
Gaming geekery has been pretty hefty lately too. I’ve been playing: Pokemon SoulSilver, (yes still. I love my pokemon, I’m sorry!) Dragon Quest 9, Assassin’s Creed, Uncharted, Transformers: War for Cybertron, 3d Dot Game Heroes and Fairytale Fights. I have the attention span of a small child, I know. That’s why it takes me so long to play through something, I bounce back and forth between things too much. So far the main winners for my attention are Fairytale Fights and Dragon Quest 9. I’ve also been dabbling in Maplestory on a friend’s recommendation. And there’s always WoW, though you can tell from PW:Bubble and from asking my Real ID cohorts that I’m not on much.
My ever present love for books hasn’t lessened either. If anything, I’ve been reading more lately than I have in a long time, mostly due to the fact that after a 10 hour work day, laying in bed and getting lost in a book is about the most energy I have. Plus the Kindle app for my blackberry is reaaaaalllllyyyyy handy. >.< Right now, I’m on a bit of a YA novel binge. This is fine with me though, as John Green, Laurie Halse Anderson, Sarah Dessen, Wendy Mass and the duo of Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl are all phenomenal writers.
And with that brief update, it’s 2:30am, and I think I’m finally tired enough to sleep. Now that I’ve installed the WordPress app to my phone, hopefully posts will be a little more often, but I make no promises until I’m fully moved and settled.

- I fail at jumping.
- I am more of a Starscream fangirl than I thought.
- Hearing “I AM MEGATRON” reduced me to a quivering puddle of squee-ing.
- Co-op story mode is for the win.
- StoppableForce kicks my ass at this game
- I am a bad ass sniper. \o/
- This game is so full of win.
More detailed info on it coming as soon as I get more play time with it. :)
For those of you who don’t follow me on twitter, I finally stepped into 2006 and bought a PS3. I know! In my defense, I USED to own a PS3 (one of the old school fattie 80gb ones) but when my personal life ‘asploded I lost custody of it. So to break in my shiny new 120gb slim (wooo upgrade!) I bought the first Assassin’s Creed and the first Uncharted as well as 3d Dot Game Heroes. So far, 3d Dot Game Heroes has consumed my life. That game is so much fun. I’m a huge Zelda fan (and I mean really, who isn’t?) and 3d is really similar. Just straight up old school fun. The kind of fun that has me yelling, “OH! A SPIDER!! Kill it! Kill it deaddddddddddd!” and making stabbity noises (yes, stabbing has a noise in the World of Tart) and acting like a nerd in general. I still haven’t gotten to spend as much time with it as I would like, but working 50+ hours a week and progression raiding will do that to you. Hopefully everything will calm down soon so I can get back to some semblance of normalcy.
But in the meantime if you have a PS3, my PSN name is tartdarling (duh!) so feel free to add me and say hai sometime :)
