Some Bloggy Type Stuff

I've thought about writing a new blog, but when I had a nice long one a couple of days ago, the server ate it. And then burped. So here I go again...

 

Anyway, I have completely solved my roommate troubles by moving across the hallway. It's different, but much more bearable.

 

Unfortunately, the hassle of moving meant that I was slammed with a ton of homework on Monday, so that wasn't very fun, especially because the new Bionicle game came out at about the same time. :glare:

 

Speaking of the game, it's quite fun. It takes a little practice, but I'm pretty good at it now. A little thing I noticed; when you press the space bar, you can knock Toa / Makuta out of your way. i discovered this while I was Tanma, because he has the little sword swinging animation. You get the same results from the other Matoran (Light and Shadow) but they just don't have any cool slash moves. I am currently trying to get a perfect score: 27000. So far, I've reached 25000, but I need to practice not hitting the walls.

 

More about the game: I created a poll about your favorite Phantoka games this year. I've been keen to make one for a while now, but I waited until all of them were out. I was frankly surprised that nobody beat me to it... although the odds are somebody will post the same poll in a few days and everybody will post there, and completely ignore mine. Oh well, here it is.

 

Furthermore, check out this picture. I think Lego is really just tormenting us by posting what could have been the sets but just stayed as prototypes. A couple of things...

 

Matoran Body = WIN, especially with the reused Bohrok (Kal) shields. Why couldn't the Matoran have had build-able bodies?

Matoran Mask= Cool

Matoran Wing Weapons= WIN

Kopaka's varied armor= Super Win! Why'd they have to give the finalized set boring Inika armor on the legs and arms? This is a great design, and even uses preused pieces.

Kopaka's torso armor (Matoran body piece) = Super Win.

Matoran Body Piece > Inika torso piece.

 

Really, why couldn't the finalized sets be a little more like the prototypes?

 

And, one final point, I will be seeing Indy 4 tonight at Midnight. I've heard it's a horrible movie because it's not like the original... which I consider gibberish, because the sequels are never as good as the original. I still am going and expecting to enjoy it, even if it's not Raiders

 

Here's hoping this makes it through the server in one piece.

I don't really like the Matoran prototype, but it does have more parts, which makes it cool.

Though I think the final Matoran look a lot better...

The Kopaka is better though, more unique.

Well, the Matoran looks like a combined style used in the Voya-Nui and Mahri-Nui Matoran, which looks cool. Of course, some alterations are necessary...

 

Link fixed...

 

Best of all, I got the tickets cheap through a campus organization. :P

Closest border is in Canada. :bigsmile: Which makes the Olympics really close in two years.

 

Oh, and about the movie... :br:

 

First showing in Seattle. WOO!

 

I might just go see it again.

I'm SSOOOOOOO going to see it today. Of course, there's the small problem of my mom. :P

 

Kopaka looks WIN. The color scheme is bleh, but the rest is awesome.

Every time I post something I first do ctrl-A and ctrl-C and then click "Add Reply" (or whatever).

 

The prototypes are OK, IMO. But some of the things in them are cool.
