The best new RTS I've played in years
It takes a really, really good game to rapidly supplant my long-held favorites, but I've found one that gives them a run for their money. For the past 12 years I've been a huge fan of Command & Conquer - both the original (Tiberian Dawn) and Red Alert - as well as Total Annihilation. C&C had a twisted storyline, with little "gotchas" that you (ok, ( Read more... ) -
For those of you wondering
I haven't been very active here for the past... well, year. Year and a half, even. I think part of that was because I wanted to find a more personal connection with my friends, and that came in the form of trying to make direct face-to-face (or IM-to-IM, or phone-to-phone, etc) conversation instead of the rather impersonal nature of LiveJournal.

C&C3: Tiberium Wars -- Initial Perceptions

I think the storyline is rich and imaginative, the units are creative and really cool, and both the Tiberian and Red Alert universes are richly imagined. Command & Conquer may not have the best gameplay engine ever, but what I look for in a ( Read more... ) -

Movie Review: Idiocracy
Okay, for anyone who hasn't heard of this movie (which I'm assuming is going to be most of you), let me get one thing straight. This isn't a big blockbuster movie. As far as I'm aware it was barely advertised at all and spent about two weeks in the theater. This doesn't make it any less of an awesome movie, however ( Read more... ) -

Looks like I was right. While not terrible, the box's description of the food content was not entirely apt. The mashed "potatoes" were the worst part. Actually, if you pretended they were supposed to be grits instead of mashed potatoes, they were fairly good. Then you remember that they're supposed to be mashed potatoes and it's kinda wierd again ( Read more... )
