Well... where do I start? I feel like keeping this short and sweet. But things don't always go as planned.
First, Omar commented on my last post, saying:
"at wii music thing does look really stupid and a little too dumbed-down, even for the casual gamer...i mean if you don't have to follow the rhythm or melody all that much, then what's the point? t's also sad to see nintendo cash in on ideas innovated and made popular by other systems, considering nintendo used to be on the other side of that fence"
I have to say that I agree. All that I've seen in the last few months, in terms of exclusives, from Nintendo has been direct pandering to the lowest common denominator. It kind of hurts me to see one of my favorite video game companies essentially ignore their innovative direction, simply to shovel more crap onto the pile. Oh well, I'm eventually going to have to come to terms with the fact that core gamers are going to be ignored for a long while with the Wii. I'll have to look elsewhere... oh wait I kind of have already.
So, we went to Chris's place to watch "The Comedy Roast of Bob Saget" (watch it. It's fucking awesome). It was absolutely hilarious. Norm MacDonald was sooooooooo rediculous. All of his jokes were terrible, but the delivery was immaculate. I think I was in tears. I took a few shots while we were there...
Jess made a cake...
DANGEROUS!
AWESOME.
I've been working 1:30-9:30 all week, so I'm pretty tired. LOOK AT THE PHONE I USE.
I picked up LEGO BATMAN!!!!
I'm so stoked to play it. Danielle are going to hack through the game as a team, which is exciting. FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN!!!!!! I hoping that breaks the monotony of working like a DRONE all week. I'm not working on Friday and Saturday! I'm stoked to jam on Friday, and Saturday is an open book. WOO!
OH YEAH! It was Tony Says' 5TH birthday yesterday (proof)! I can't really believe I've been doing it this long. Sure, the older posts were riddled with lingo, grammar errors, and NO PHOTOS (for 10 months). It's grown a bit since then, but to celebrate, last night Danielle and I made a cake...
IT LOOKS LIKE THE OLD FORMAT! The icing recipe that my mom gave me didn't take to colour all that well (it's more likely that I made it wrong), but the cake is delicious. And there's lots left. Come get some. Or not.
I'm done for tonight...
