You Must Be On Stage When The Curtain Falls

by Rainier on Sept. 27, 2010 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT | Filed under MOTD

Wow, what a warm day that was yesterday, and it's said to be even hotter today. Summer's over, and it seems the hottest days are yet to come. Weird.

Due to our drink-fest Saturday night, we did not get up until noon, which kind of messed up our schedule for the day (sorry, Adam), and we scrambled to get our dinner prepped.

Dead Rising 2 is coming out this week, so I'll be checking the PC version when it arrives, and if there's some spare time, I'd love to have a look at Alien Breed 2. I've always loved the Team17 games.

I Am A Vulgar Man! But I Assure You, My Music Is Not

by Rainier on Sept. 26, 2010 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT | Filed under MOTD

Ahh we started the weekend with good intentions and ended up doing almost nothing that we'd planned. No catching up on TV whatsoever. Not surprisingly, we ended up playing Vindictus and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 all Saturday, only to leave the house to meet up with friends and toss back a bunch of beers.

Hopefully we'll get around to it today, but we also have to slow-cook a few racks of ribs for dinner.

Maybe in between peeling potatoes and making corn casserole, we can squeeze in some TV time.

A Day Without Blood Is Like A Day Without Sunshine

We've had a weak summer so far, but it should heat up a little this weekend, and guess what? We're going to be spending it in front of the telly. Most of our TV series have restarted, and our DVR went from 40% to over 60% full. Last night, we watched Castle, Chuck, House, and we have Bones, Hell's Kitchen, NCIS and Fringe at bat for later today.

Gaming-wise, I've been really enjoying Vindictus, Nexon's upcoming MMORPG. It's still somewhat limited in its functionality, and one of the big features, guilds, seems to be disabled so the jury is still out, but it's certainly fun.
