    Skin/TDK

    By Eeko,

    So I saw The Dark Knight Rises.
    Fantastic.
    Not as good as Dark Knight in my mind, but man oh man was Bane intense.
     
    In other news, yay skin!
    It was a lot of fun to see this come together backstage.
    I even had my own little part to play! Granted it was just cataloguing images that I'm not entirely sure were used... but hey, it still looks nice.

    Back!

    By Eeko,

    Well, I'm finally back from tour.
    I had a great time, and am very tired.
     
    As far as Steam goes, I picked up the following.
     
    Amnesia
    Assassin's Creed Brotherhood
    Bioshock
    Bioshock 2
    Darksiders
    Limbo
    Quantum Conundrum
    Psychonaughts
     
    And then the lovely JMJ gifted me Bastion. (Chols did as well, but JMJ beat him to the punch).
     
    Lord knows when I'll actually play any of these.
     
     
     
    So for now, I'll be avoiding the blogs because of potential DKR spoilers.
     
    See you later!

    Aww man...

    By Eeko,

    So I was at Hot Topic earlier, and totally saw both a Dr. Whooves and Derpy shirt.
     
    But I didn't get one.
     
    Because of reasons.

    So Steam sale guys.
    I picked the perfect time to have a birthday.
     
    I've got a $50 dollar cap, and I fully plan on using it all.
     
     
    But I have a question for people, seeing as this is my first Steam Sale.
     
    Do the smaller deals (like how Bastion is 33% off now) stay up for the full 10 days?
     
    Say Bastion doesn't get any lower than 33% off, will it stay 33% off the whole time?
    Or go back to full price later?

    Dat Sweet Loot

    By Eeko,

    Birthday loot brag time!!
     
    I had a pretty sweet load this time 'round, maybe one of the best ever for me.
     
    First up iTunes money, so I had just enough to buy both Clockwork Angels by Rush, as well as Alive 2007 by Daft Punk. So good.
    Second up was a Zombie survival poster, which didn't really make sense since my whole family knows I'm not a poster person.
    Thirdly, was a $50 () Steam gift card.
    Snagged about 75 bucks overall.
     
    Greatest of all however, was the T-shirts.
    Feast your eyes upon these beauties:

     

     

     

     
    The Zelda shirt is by far the coolest, complete with the coolest tag in the world:
     

     
     
    Apparently my dad had to order that shirt from Japan, since it's not made in the U.S.
     
     
     
    Finally, to wrap it all up, yours truly!
     

     

    I'm haunting your dreams...
     
     
     
    Anyways, thanks for all the birthday wishes an' stuff.
    It feels weird to have a birthday topic in GD.

    Explosions!

    By Eeko,

    So I went to my friends house for our annual "light things on fire until they make pretty colors" party.
     
    Oh man.
    It was awesome.
     
     
    I torched my thumb while lighting a spark fountain, it turned quite a lovely shade of red with a few black bits.
     
    I almost lit my shirt on fire, but I got the sparks out in time.
     
    We also set off a huge chain reaction of around 10 fireworks, each one lighting the next one.
     
     
    So good.

    Don't Blink...

    By Eeko,

    So my sister's birthday is coming up soon, and her being a Whovian (she's the one who got me into the show), I wanted to get her a Doctor Who related gift.
    So my question to you all is:
    Are there any good Weeping Angel figurines out there?
    All the ones I've seen so far ar kinda so-so.
     
    Also I turn 18 in 3 days.
     
    What is this madness.

    Brave

    By Eeko,

    Well that was... mediocre at best.
     
    Beautiful to look at, but the pacing and story were simply not up to Pixar's standards.
    I'd save your money on this one guys.

    Here I Am

    By Eeko,

    rock you like a hurricane...
     
     
    Anyways, back from camp. Sore as all get out, and I really torqued up my back playing Walleyball.
     
    Had a good time though.

    An animated version of the ocean from before.
    Link to a poorer quality full screen. The original size is about 860x490. Took a few hours to render.
     
    I might try one later where it get's progressively stormier and the water speeds up and gets choppy.

    Owowowowow...

    By Eeko,

    Did a car wash today for a church fundraiser.
    Forgot sunscreen.
    AAAAARRRGGGGHHHHH!
     
     
    In other news, I finally finished Final Fantasy VII.
    Such a great game. Seriously, if you haven't played it, go buy a PS1 and play it. Definitely one of the best RPGs I've ever played.

    Life Updates

    By Eeko,

    So I'm almost done with loan applications, and man are they a hassle.
    I leave on Monday for my church's youth camp, get back on Saturday.
    Also, OMG I LEAVE FOR COLLEGE IN TWO MONTHS.
    WHAT.
     
    So there's that.
     
     
    I've semi-recently taken up transcribing sheet music in my spare time. Got about six Skyward Sword tracks done.
    Also been listening to Chrono Trigger music all day because it's just so good.
     
    Speaking of music, Rush's new album came out and I don't have enough money! *cries*
     
     
     
    So yeah, that's a basic life update.

    Lego LΟТṚ Demo

    By Eeko,

    Oh, man.
    Even without the LOTR aspect, this is hands down the best LEGO gameplay I've seen.
    Individual character inventories, cinematics from the movies, weapon upgrading...
    I can't wait.

    E3 Day 1

    By Eeko,

    Microsoft:
    Oh man, I had quite a few laughs during this one. Not good laughs, definitely laughing at them.
    Internet explorer. Classic.
    Too much Kinect in my opinion.
    Halo 4 looked to be the only decent thing to come out of that show.
     
    EA:
    Splinter Cell looks totally awesome. I know nothing about the series, but still, pretty cool.
    I just can't seem to get excited for the Lara Croft title though. It seems like such a great idea, but all the gameplay they've shown so far just looks terrible. So much quicktime.
    Just Dance 4 makes me want to puke. Just no.
     
    Ubisoft:
    First off, that lady annoyed the snot out of me. I feel like Tobuscus could've actually been funny were it not for her.
    Not sure how I feel about ZombiU, other than the terrible name. I love that there's a mature FPS for a Nintendo console, but zombies?
    Watch Dogs. Oh my gosh Watch Dogs. That game better be available on Steam. It looks amazing. Cool idea, interesting setup, and it's pretty much an urban Assassin's Creed.
    Speaking of...
     
    Sony:
    OH MY GOD THERE'RE SHIP BATTLES IN AC 3. SO AMAZING.
    Sony's was hands down the best show today. Even just as far as presentation goes.
    Beyond looks fantastic, a game starring Ellen Page is a great idea.
    I'm hesitant about All Stars. It seems like way too much of a Smash Bros. clone to be taken seriously.
    The Book of Spells looks interesting. I think it'll be a great game for kids, I know I would've loved it.
    Now if they release a LOTR Wonder Book...
     
     
    Looking forward to Nintendo's conference tomorrow, I hope they reveal something great!

    Blender Stuff

    By Eeko,

    So I finally did something in Blender, after quite a while.
    They had released the next version, so I had to try out the new internal renderer.
     
    Anyways, Link
     
    As an interesting aside, here's what it looks like without any help from the compositer. Link2
