So, apparently, having fat characters in video games is insulting. Jesus fucking christ, are you serious? Since when is eating McDonald's everyday worthy of playing the sympathy card?
Dark Knight was absolutely amazing. Like everyone, I thought the hype about Ledger's performance was that, hype. No. Not one bit. Anthony and I were definitely geeking out pretty much any time he spoke. It makes Ledger's death that much more depressing, because of the range of the characters he could play. That he could actually act. He wasn't just another actor typecast into the same role. (I'm looking at you, Jack Nicholson Joker.) Two-face was also amazing.
Picked up FF4 for DS. It's not really as ugly as 90% of screenshots made it look. Or it looks better in motion. Also... there's voice acting, which I didn't know about. I never beat this game back in the SNES days, despite playing it a million times, so maybe this time I finally will. The only thing I don't get is, some of the monsters models are fucking gorgeous. The ahriman in the opening battle, for instance. Why can't the character models look like that...?
PS: Lol fat activist what

E3 is awesome and at the same time very disappointing. The awesome:
-Portal: Still Alive -RE5 -Gears 2, sort of, maybe -Infinite Undiscovery -FF13 -Banjo: Nuts -Last Remnant -Little Big Planet -Star Ocean 4 -Netflix + Microsoft
That's about it for awesome, I think. Overall though, the conferences were so amazingly underwhelming. Microsoft was decent, but they were all over the god damn place. How can you show stuff like RE5 and Gears 2, then have an eyetoy ripoff 5 minutes later? I haven't watched Nintendo's conference yet but... I don't think I want to. How the hell did they not announce anything worthwhile? And sony, well. Sony's done. The only thing remotely interesting about the Sony conference was Valkryie Chronicles for PSP, and the downloadable quasi add on for Ratchet and Clank. Sorry, but a ten second God of War 3 teaser doesn't quite cut it :(. They started off great too, with the LBP graphs.
I think the presenters were a big problem. They were so fucking boring. I miss Peter Moore.
That was a mess of a paragraph, but basically, the only system I'll be playing for the next year is 360. So many RPGs. I still can't believe Microsoft got FF13.
Here's (notgonnahappen) hoping for some KH news, even for the putsy portable ones.
PS: Holy fucking hell is Too Human garbage. The camera is like they were trying to make it bad. And the whole right stick control for the swords is just awkward. When you slide it to attack an enemy, you glide towards them like your skating, and just, ugh. The entire game looks and plays like shit, and it doesn't help that Dyack is a fucking retard.

I need to quit with the naps. It's 6am.
Today was amazing, even though I'm kinda disappointed in myself for being boring this year. I don't even care that I "missed" a day of E3, really. I'm caught up with the news now, and I got to spend the day with Megan <3. I'll post pictures of my loots later on. PS: WALL*E was pretty god damn adorable.
Oh, also, GOING TO CANADA. FOR THIRTY EIGHT DOLLARS. I LOVE EVERYTHING.
Time to force myself to sleep~

Dear Square-Enix:
Stop using shitty 3D in all of your DS Final Fantasy remakes. It does not look good. Just because it's maxing out the wimpy DS hardware, does not mean it looks good. Stop. Use sprites, for the love of christ.
Love,
Everyone
