    Other Titles: Headcrab Zombies And Health Restoring Enemies Oh My
     
    So, yeah, just got there. Surprised by how different it is from the rest of the game, and now I have a new appreciation for stuff like Resident Evil. =P
     
    Funny how one of the enemies actually acts as a health restorer, however. xD Granted, it nearly kills you, but...
     
    I must say, Ravenholm's pretty cool, and I now understand why it's best played at night. =P

    Other Titles: I'm Getting Shot At By A Second Helicopter
     
    So, I got through two parts of that complex I've had to go through to open the gates. Now I'm getting attacked by a helicopter shooting at me(The second, I believe I shot down the first. =P), and also dropping bombs. Which doesn't help me making a jump, as it knocks me off track. That isn't the worst part, though, the part directly after... The copter keeps shooting at me, and somehow hitting me each time. 0_o Which is weird, because I've been doing a fairly good job of avoiding it 'til now. =P

    Other Titles: I'm On A Boat, Those Head Crabs Can't Catch Me!
     
    I told you guys more Half Life 2 stuff would be here soon. =P
     
    So, I made it to Water Hazard. And I have no clue where I'm going. =) Well, actually, apparently I'm heading to the scene of the crime from last game, which is very interesting. But yeah, I'm finally out of Route Kanal, which is good. Head Crabs were but a distraction.

    Other Titles: Something Else Cold Related I Dislike How Interesting
     
    It's official. I hate coughing. I've had a stupid cough for about the past week. I don't really know what's causing it now, but I'm really disliking it now. Tried a lot of things, and I thought it'd be over by now, but nope, still there. -_-'

    Other Titles: Bullets Only Work Underwater If You Shoot From Above The Water
     
    So, let me start off by saying that the Half Life series is one of the harder gaming series I've seen. =P So, I reached the part where you cross underwater after wasting pretty much all your bullets on those things that try to grab you. And... Well... Not getting very far past that. I get onto the platform, but, well, all the Combine start using me for Shooting Practice. Again. =P However, I'm not giving up... I'll get past this somehow! It'll take quick thinking and lots of strafing, but I'll do it. =P
     
    On a side note, I seem to be making up for lost time tonight. A wonder what Half Life 2 can do to help you catch up in the blogosphere. =P
     
    /EDIT: Oh of course, it's a ladder. Nearly made it past that part, but well, target practice ruled once more. =P

    Other Titles: A Meme And A Reference
     
    So, yeah, new Half Life themed blog title and description. Oddly enough, though most of the title reference is simply me guessing stuff I'm willing to bet that it's spot on. =P
     
    So yeah. Expect more Half-Life blog entries sooner or later. =P

    Other Titles: Playing Out Of Order Again I See.
     
    So, I'm able to play the original Xbox version of Half Life 2. Not even 10 minutes into the game, and I'm already stuck. Wow. I think that's a new record. *Goes to bash different things to try and open the way* I don't have the Crowbar, though. =(

    Other Titles: I'm On The Role Again, Time To Quit Playing Around, I Think The Rpgs Multiplied
     
    Before you panic about alt title 2, I'm not quitting anything, I just wanted a second witty play-on-words title. =P
     
    So... Yeah. Lots of RPGs. I'm sure there are more now than there were before the upgrade... Either that, or I finally know the reason why I didn't get to reply to all the RPGs before the upgrade downtime started. =P I'm lucky, though, they're still going fairly slow since BZP only just came back, but I have a funny feeling I'll eventually start to regret following all those RPG topics, especially when activity starts up again...
     
    I mean, instead of the 50-80 notifications I'm getting overnight now, I'll likely have 100-9001 eventually. xD

    Other Titles: Capcom!, The Moon Is Not Enough, Trigger Must Be Getting Lonely, The Megaman On The Moon Will Stay There Much Longer, When A Legend Dies Another Is Born - Just Not Any Time Soon
     
    Yeah... This is more of a ranting entry, just to warn you guys. =P
     
    So. July 18th, I believe, of this year. Not a good day for Megaman fans, not at all. I mean, we had two games announced the year before, 3 if you really wanna count Rockman Online. However, Universe had been canceled about 4 months prior; but we still had Legends 3, right? Right?
     
    Eh, not really. Capcom apparently didn't think that there was enough people who wanted it, so, guess what, they canceled both it and the 'prototype' that was going to be sold on the Nintendo E-Shop. The rage that resulted certainly got word out, I believe, and many people showed their support to try and show Capcom that they were in the wrong this time... Any of it work yet? Nope. Nothing's worked, even though two developers(Including Keiji himself) wanting to make the game, and a massive campaign by the fans.
     
    But, really, I do not get Capcom's logic at all. I would've understood if it had some game breaking bug.(From the one person who got to play the prototype outside of Capcom's own media people; that was not the case) I would've understood if there had've been other reasons, like the 'reasons' for Legends 1 and 2 not getting released.
     
    But they initially claimed lack of fan input(And to be honest, we haven't heard any better reasons. =P), when they themselves said that participation in the Dev Room was not needed. And if they had've actually kept it going, they could have dominated the E-Shop; given that there's still almost no e-Shop exclusive games.(There's that Golf game, and the VC stuff, but that's it.) And if they had've stuck to their original plan of using the Prototype as a gauge of fan input, then we might have actually gotten the game, instead of a cancellation notice.
     
    Oh yes, and that's the other thing. They claimed that the Prototype Version's popularity would dictate whether or not the game would get released. The prototype was never even released; so how do they know whether or not the game would have been popular? And after all the commotion that happened immediately following the cancellation, you'd think that Capcom would've realized, "Hey, wait, we made a mistake"... But nope. They're just putting out the games that they were planning on releasing... Well... Minus any Megaman games, of course.

    Other Titles: You Can Link Blogs To Topics Now?, I Nearly Had No Other Titles, Is This What I Think It Is?
     
    I just want to test this.
     
    Substitute Shinigami Badge
     
    I also kinda wanna show off the badge a little, but it's mostly to test. =P I just noticed that in one of the new topics in GD, there was a link to a blog entry that was apparently about the topic; and that's new. So, obviously I wanted to try it, since that'd be cool. =D So... Yeah. =P
     
    /EDIT: Oooh. I was mistaken, there's actually an option to do it in the topic itself, so... I'm doing it wrong! =P Well, uh, whoops. >>; I may wanna keep this to show I was wrong, in execution, but it is possible. You just need to use the 'blog this' link in the topic itself. ;

    Other Title: Loading & Posting Is Slooooow
     
    Add-on title: It's A 3DS. I Have A 3DS Now. 3DS's Are Cool!
     
    So, yeah, got a 3DS over the downtime. In fact, I'm using it to post now. And typing is slow, but not too slow. Mostly it's the loading that is hard to handle. So if I'm slower to post, that's likely the reason. =p
  12. Blessed Blade
    So, The Impossible Astronaut was on last night. It was pretty good, even if confusing at the same time. =P I liked some of the quotes, but again; still confusing.
     
    And after that, a marathon was on that I missed the first few episodes of. I started on The Hungry Earth and ended with Cold Blood, since I hadn't seen that one originally.
     
    Today, it played all the old Christmas 1-4 Specials. Not the 4.5 Specials though, they simply went back to 1 and continued onward.
     
    However, that means I saw Voyage twice. It's ending is sad, though; especially when you saw the last half of the special once, and know exactly what's going to happen later on. =/ Wondering what they'll do now, though; they're running outta specials. =P
  13. Blessed Blade
    So; I mentioned that I've been writing stuff lately... Well, I might be posting chapters of it on here soon. Still haven't totally decided, but it's looking likely at the moment.
     
    Of course, I still have to get back to actually writing more chapters of it, but that should happen soon. =P
  14. Blessed Blade
    It's a very good add-on that they've created for Black and White. It's not the best it could be, but it's definitely a step up from the Pokewalker.
     
    However, I'm still not too keen on the hour limit for the Dream World, what with the fact that on my computer, I get a lot of lag, likely because said computer is near-obsolete, if it isn't already, and is probably over 7 years old. =P
     
    However, the Global Link in general is pretty cool, though there are still some glitches that can be seen, which will hopefully be fixed sometime in the future. And EZ Mail is fail. Which also rhymes. =P Worse than MLN's messaging system, as in even more restrictive. Heck; even the mail system in the games is better. xD
     
    The Global Battle Union is pretty cool; though I haven't gotten a chance to actively test it just yet... partly because I'm still reworking my team. =P
     
    However, I do believe that the Dream World interface could be updated, and that the profile part of the main page could be redesigned; I don't care if this is the second time it's done, it's missing key info. =P For one, it doesn't tell you if there's any new messages(And what with it being so restrictive, you're not likely to check it actively); and there's no notice in the Dream World or on the main page that someone wishes to add you to the Dream Pal Roster... Someone sent me a request last night, and I didn't see it until after I had already finished up in the Dream World(Due to that silly hour limit). Now I have to wait for tonight for that.
     
    Overall, it's a very nice application; however... It needs to be expanded when the next games come out or sooner, that's for sure.

  17. Blessed Blade
    I'm running out of things to blog about. xP
     
    However, I will say this: I've got a few story ideas floating around in my head. I may start mass writing in addition to the stuff I'm already working on. xP Might just throw in some Bionicle stuff too; but that's simply to not have to think up a reason why a perfectly normal person is throwing around lightning bolts or flinging fireballs at people. =P
  18. Blessed Blade
    Anyone hate how in GoldenEye, all the enemies run and shoot at you; all en masse? I'm having trouble especially in the remade Cradle, trying to get to the next objective marker.
     
    And I wouldn't have any problems... if it wasn't for the fact that it decides to put up the loading screen after every death. >_>
  19. Blessed Blade
    I think I know exactly what my next name change will be. =)
     
    I just have to figure out how to get the avvie I need... Don't care about the banner; almost never use one anyway. =P
  20. Blessed Blade
    Seriously need a gaming category.
     
    So, I just played a match on the Docks level in Goldeneye. Everything's fine, I'm sniping away even though I don't have a silencer, doing fairly well for a newbie sniper. Tons of lag starts up near the end. Don't think anything of it. Match ends. Shows me that we won, and that I have +50 XP because of that.
     
    *BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP* *And keeps on continuing*
     
    ... The game... Froze. *Resists urge to throw controller through screen, but succeeds* =P
     
    But seriously; of all times for it to freeze; it had to be then. Not sure if my XP got saved because of that or not.
  21. Blessed Blade
    I hate it. It cost me a number of eliminations just now; so I did what any self respecting gamer would do...
     
    I ragequit. =) 'Course; I wasn't the host, so that's good. =P
  22. Blessed Blade
    I found this funny. In GoldenEye; I snuck up on three people, on the Station level. Aimed; and then fired.
     
    I took out all three players in one shot. All three dropped down at the same time, so I thought my teammates got them. But no; 5 XP popped up three times.
     
    I laughed at that. =P
