Limit Break, Bulbasaur, Bad Voice Acting and Gay Mexicans


Phew. That was one long 6 weeks. Lost a lot of HP, but now ready to bounce back with 3 weeks of on/off nothing! So awesome! (Limit Break ftw)
All this freedom, however, leaves me with a conundrum: what to do with it?
Sure I can train, sure I'm hoping to go to an open beach party tomorrow, but there's weeks more to go, and I'm not nearly gay enough to write/read poetry.
That leaves me with one option: crack open a can of whoop-ass on the VG front.

I'll start off by discussing what is easily one of the most awesome games I've ever played to date: Red Dead Redemption (which from this point I'll call RDR for short). As soon as I started I became so immersed in this game, that I couldn't stop playing it, and when I finally did I couldn't stop thinking about it. I've already clocked up over 16 hours (that's a lot for me). The whole world, with it's attention to detail (even as far as weather and landscape), huge open area to explore, and stunning realism (especially voice acting) just never cease to amaze me. And the music's cool. Whether you love to track and hunt down bandits for bounties, go out and hunt wild animals, break horses or follow the interesting and original story path, this game will grip you like a horny 13-year-old grips his... Corn Flakes. Oh, and it has gay Mexicans, which just makes it even better.

Because Real Life...


...doesn't have an auto-attack button.

So I recently bought, and by recently I mean a while ago, Final Fantasy XIII.

In my unjustified excitement I even offered an extra £10 to the faceless, nameless bag of meat that served me so that I might upgrade my version of said Fantasy, to the special edition. With this I received some pretty art cards, a sticker, a selection of soundtracks from the game, an art book (which was merely some poorly taken screenshots from the game), and the game itself. I won’t give a full review here, you can go to http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/1569-Final-Fantasy-XIII if you’d like to hear what the game itself is like. Instead I will tell you how much I adore Final Fantasy games, and how much the latest iteration has rammed it’s shiny, HD, linear cock gameplay into my open mouth, which was wide with expectation. And believe me, I gagged. And cried.
