I originally had some rocking hardcore metal scheduled for today, but then I remembered that Valentine’s Day is this weekend. Luckilyfor me, I stumbled across this wonderful Touhou Project PV while trying to find a suitable replacement. I’ve absolutely fallen in love with this song and, in my mind, it’s the perfect fit for a holiday that can be just as much about simply being there for the people who are important to you as it js about romance .
Of course the downside of all this is that I spent the rest of the day watching Touhou Project videos on YouTube and I’m now officially addicted. I’m maybe a few years behind the curve on this one, but what the hell, it’s never to late to become a fan of something awesome. Don’t be surprised if some other Touhou Project videos wind up on here in the coming months =^_-=
Look at the size of that thing! I think even the most adventurous womanfolk in the audience would think twice before taking on that things… =^_^;;= Seriously though, the more I see of 3D Dot Game Heroes, the more excited I get about it. It’s impressive mix of modern 3D rendering techniques mixed with old school gaming aesthetics continues to look better every time I see it. Add in the cheaper then usual price ($39.99) and I can’t wait till May 11th! =^_^=
BTW, if your not up to date on the whole 3D Dot Game Heroes hubbub, go here for more info.
I wasn’t really sure if I would be interested in this manga when I first saw it on a list of upcoming releases last month. The plot summary piqued my interest with it’s talk of zombies in a high tech sci-fi setting, but the overall story premise didn’t exactly sound ground breaking by any means. Still, after seeing the stunning cover art and checking out a sample pages I tracked down on the web, I do believe I’ll probably be picking this title up the next time I visit my local bookstore.
I had planned on posting a video clip of Uma Thurman sing “When You Got It, Flaunt It” from the 2005 version of The Producers movie starring Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick, but unfortunately I came up empty handed on YouTube. Had the same problem when I tried to find the original scene from “Keep it Gay.” Thankfully, I did finally find this fairly decent AMV though that combines the film audio for “Keep it Gay” with footage from the Gravitation anime. Seems like it worked out pretty well, if you ask me.
BTW, if you haven’t seen The Producers yet, go do so NOW! I don’t even like musicals that much and I LOVED this movie. I sooooo want to see it live on Broadway… =T_T=
If things were the way they should be, all I would have to say in this post would be “IT’S MOTHERF*CKIN’ MASS EFFECT 2, BITCHES!” To which all of you would reply, “HELLZ YEAH!!” and that would be the end of it. Unfortunetely, we don’t live in that world, so I have to spell it out for some of you with the above trailer.
I should have lots of new content next week, so I hope you will bear with me this week as I proceed to get my ME2 on. On some related notes, I just want to say that if you haven’t already purchased the Collector’s Edition, good luck to you. I couldn’t find it anywhere locally and I’m really pissed at Gamestop right now for not even taking preorders for it (or not taking enough orders for it…I keep hearing conflicting stories) =-_-X= Secondly, if you plan to buy the game, DO IT NOW! The first run of the game comes with a free code for the Cerberus Network which will be a source of free in-game content from BioWare. If you don’t get a copy with the free code, you will have to purchase it on Xbox Live for $15.
Don’t be surprised if some other Touhou Project videos wind up on here in the coming months =^_-=
