While I love my Dogi's foot avatar, I'm thinking it might be time to change. Now I have to decide if I want to finally get around to extracting certain images from a certain song from a certain music game and make an animated avatar, or be lazy and start reviewing my old avatars of Siren from beatmaniaIIDX or Omega Rugal from Capcom vs SNK 2 (he's always so stylish, even when overcome by dark powers beyond his control... again)

My only problem with Maverick Hunter X is that I tore through it too quickly and now don't remember it too well. <_<
Urge to have a Mega Man X marathoning day, increasing.. When I do one-sitting clears it is usually of classic series games. I haven't just sat down with Mega Man X games in a while. Ah, but to have an audience to motivate me or someone else to take turns with...

Got Lufia 2 on the way!
After the local game shop sold their complete copy, I found an eBay auction that I just won

Hey Schlagwerk, nice TFs! Did you pre-order the Masterpiece Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime? My brother is a huge TF fan and he ordered it a few days ago. I just bought a bag of my ultimate favorite chips! Thanks. I'm holding off for the US Toys R Us exclusive Masterpiece Hot Rod release. $200 is a bit pricey for the Japanese version and I don't even like his space Winnebago trailer. The TRU release will be just the main figure, without the trailer and should cost less, so it's everything I wanted! I might have to try those chips out. I love me a good jalapeno chip

I have a game idea but I need a team too! Though this has just reminded me that I recently had a dream that inspired story idea for me.. and now I can't remember it at all. I must've forgotten the premise before I even made it to work

I'm not going to join in the festivities but for a long time my beatmaniaIIDX high score name was dj U-DO so Smithee's sig caught my eye
Also dj U-DO just rolls of the tongue nicely

I heard workout machines are pretty garbage, and a good set of weights is much better. But that's just from one guy, but he's fit as fuck. Lifting anything is bad for you if you do it wrong. Anyhow I kinda need a leg press machine. How else am I to leg press 400+ lbs? Also I've yet to find a good free weigh exercise that works the chest like a pec deck machine Though talking about my fucking apartment complex, they just sent out a notice that as of March 1 they'll no longer be signing for or holding packages for people. WELL FUCK THEM. Oh, but they claim that the post office is just nearby.. on the other side of town. A town with a metric fuckton of traffic lights. And often heavy traffic. And said post office has the worst hours I've ever seen. 10-5 on weekdays? Shit, hope you don't have a day job or anything Yeah, this pisses me off a lot since I do a lot of mail ordering, what between collectibles, Transformers, and import games Again this leads me to believe that this complex is out to fuck its tenants over the best they can while smiling and telling us things they think we want to hear so it'll keep us from noticing EDIT EDIT: And I've been in such a sour mood lately that not even these pomegranates, albeit delicious, are cheering me up

Never understood the point of working out in public. I know a lot of people go there to meet women/men/donkeys/whatever you're into, which I suppose is better than going to a bar to pick up drunken sluts. . . . . .but if the aim is actually to work out, you can buy home equipment and do so at your leisure. The quality of good weight machines would cost way more than I can afford right now and would take up more space than my little apartment would allow. I know there's multi-purpose home machines but nothing beats having a dedicated machine for the exercise you're going for. The fitness room at my current apartment complex doesn't have an inclined leg press sled and it has been driving me nuts. But it's also free I did end up going to the gym after posting that, but just went for a walk instead of a run since I'm gonna be playing Pump It Up Exceed for a couple of hours tomorrow

Currently reading Aoi Hana and enjoying it. Just some good yuri relationships without the mindnumbing banality of Marimite, off the wall humor of Sasameki Koto, or pandering of Strawberry Panic
Another fun thing is so far the female main character isn't really interested in relationships so it's been all about the relationships going on with her friends/classmates

After a long day of work, if I sit down for anything more than 5 minutes I lose all urge to stretch and go to the gym. Which is just how long I've been reading ALoY and typing responses right about... now crap so much for going to the gym tonight..

It's a shame ep.1's cutscene to gameplay balance was off and ep.2 had a needlessly complicated battle system (interesting but regular encounters don't need to take 5 minutes!) and poor plot pacing 'cause ep.3 was an excellent game that most people got scared off before they could even play
The best feature of ep.2 is that no plot development happens between the cutscenes. Watch all of them on your own and you're all caught up for ep.3!

Let me make it worse: On any version with a monster dictionary, there are also enemies that only show up there.. in case you're going for Klarth's one title for completing the dictionary. I forget if they have any drops 'cause, well, you're also kinda on a time limit if you want to get the best scene/rewards for getting through there

X3 also got a slightly enhanced PSX release. I own both.
PSX X3 has animated boss intro custscenes, an opening cutscene (I forget if there's an ending one, too), and CD audio music.. that isn't as good as the SNES music

My most quoted lines are from 8 and X4. I still can't believe Mega Man actually says "Flame sWord" in 8

You should read [the writing on the bathroom wall] more carefully. There is only one Zero! ?
You should read [what I wrote on the check] more carefully. There is only one zero! ?
You should read [Charles Dickens] more carefully. ? ^_^
