I beat Disgaea. It took 40 hours. It could've taken less time, if I'd bothered to figure out transmigration and stuff, but you can tell just from looking at the word that it's complitcated. It could've also taken longer, but I was clever enough to learn that mages ruin everything. If the enemy's weak to ice, you drop a glacier on them.

Speaking of which, some of the attacks later in the game are really long. Too long. I counted how long "Omega Star" took, form start to finish, and it was 10 seconds. That might not sound like a lot, but when you're doing this several times in one fight, it gets bothersome.

And what is this 10 seconds occupied with? The "Omega" spells, the 4th level, over normal, Mega and Giga, involve summoning demons. Omega Ice summons an angel who fires a laser from space that causes a massive stalagmite of ice to rise from the ground and rocket away. Omega Wing involves some lion demon thing to appear and there's some wind and leaves, I dunno. Omega Fire causes a giant devil thing to appear and fart or something. Omega Star, possibly the craziest of them all, involves the victim and caster being teleported to a featureless and barren square, only to have the camera zoom out, and it's in the hands of some titanic stone giant, and lighting fires from the tips of his fingers, across the square. I mean, it's exciting to unlock a new attack, just to see how ridiculous it's going to be.

Ending was a little disappointing. I was expecting Shakespeare, instead I got anime.

Speaking of the plot, the main character isn't even the main character of most of the episodes. Flonne, an angel, is the star of the beginning. She comes in and just sits on the plot. We're later introduced to Captain Gordon, a pretty amusing joke character, who then becomes the entire focus of the plot. Laharl is hardly even relevent to the plot until the last episode, and even then, it's mostly Flonne.

And you get these unique characters who join your party, Hoggmeiser, this cool Ganon-looking mother****er, and Maderas, a guy who... I dunno. He's cool, I guess. His hair is weird.

But they immediately stop mattering once they join your party. That is no exaggeration, once they join you, they have no dialog. And that seems weird to me, that they'd draw portraits and employ voice actors for characters who only speak in one scene. But it's unfortunate, because Hoggmeiser is way cooler than any of the other characters, if only because he looks like Ganon.

But it's to my understanding that there are multiple endings and tons of content after you beat the game. I recognized some stuff that I overlooked, and the level-cap is 9999, and I'm only 70, so there's certainly room to grow.

Yeah, Disgaea finds that limitations in most JRPGs trivial, and allows you to have massive ****ing numbers.

On to a new topic, I tried Castlevania: Order of Ecclasia, and it taught me two things about my DS;
-Diagonals are pain in the ass
-My shoulder buttons are unresponsive

My buttons aren't completely unresponsive, they just only work sometimes. I got as far as the crab battle, but there's no way I'm beating this thing if my input isn't read properly. So... I dunno. I think I need to do something.

And I keep referring to MP as "SP". This is because Persona calls it "SP", and I played a whole hell of a lot of Persona, so now I can't unlearn it.

I got a little further into Persona 4. I decided to play it cool, and I got past Shadow Kanji, which was very gay and manly.

I read in an article that some Japanese guy said that the average American gamer would assume that Kanji is gay while it's not entirely set in stone. I'm left wondering if this guy doesn't know what he's talking about, or if some things were changed in translation, because Kanji is quite clearly a homosexual.

Okay, so I'm willing to accept that Shadow Kanji's falmboyent homosexuality was a represtentation of Kanji's discomfort around women, and that his Shadow was making fun of him (If you don't know what I just said, then this is not for you). But later on he becomes aroused after two men are pushed into cold water, and it's to my understanding that he more or less SAYS that he's gay towards the end of the game. I dunno, felt like saying.

Anyway, I went up a few floors in Rise's dungeon, with it's strangely enjoyable music, and I got a High Pixie with Invigorate 1, so I left to go to the Castle where I can fight a bunch of weak enemies while my SP gradually recovers and I acquire more money to pay Fox to not be a jerk. I know it's a little much, but... I dunno. I'm doing it. I saved after one fight, if I get sick of it after a few fights, I'll just leave and move on. I don't want to waste days, though I've heard that P4 is a whole lot more forgiving with time than P3. I think I can understand that, because P3 wastes a lot of your time.

I also was thinking to myself about graphics and the next console generation, where I pretty much decided that last generation's consoles had perfectly functional graphics and anyone who complains about textures has their priorities mixed up.

I dunno, I guess that's all. I feel like I have more to say, but I don't know what, so I think I might just need to sleep or something.

It's pronounced like "Gaia". You know, like the Earth Mother.

And good golly gosh, I've been playing a lot of it. 24 hours, and I've only had it 4 days.

I'm also 5 hours into Professor Layton and I'm having mixed feelings. I'm enjoying it, I guess, I like logic puzzles and being rewarded for them, but some puzzles are unfun. Some involve big numbers, or at least I think they do, half the solutions in this game are tricks. But when I'm scared, I don't want to use a Hint Coin. I've collected over 20, and I've encountered about 55 puzzles, so I guess I'm free to use them sparingly, but I feel the need to conserve them. And the only time I used one, it just told me to think harder. I'm not even joking, their tip was to look at the puzzle more.

Anyway, I'm enjoying games. That's it, I guess.

It's been a while since I last posted.

I thought I might try getting back into OT, but I checked 3 pages and saw no topics I found interesting. And some of them are so stupid. /v/'s environment might be extremely hostile, but it serves to at least get people to type coherently.

Anyway, you may have noticed BlazBlue on my Now Playing list for a while. If you didn't, you're not my friend. Go away.

So BB was a brief obsession of mine. I saw nightly threads on /v/ and wasn't entirely sure if I was interested, but I looked into it 3 days before release and became very interested.

After I got it and played it, I found that none of the characters really clicked with me. There wasn't any character who seemed perfect. Now, in GGXX#R, a game I played a bit of, I fell in love with Zappa the first time I saw him in motion. I decided immediately that he was going to be my character. I havn't had such an effect with anyone on the BB cast, though. It might be because BB has only 12 characters, but no one is a perfect fit. Arakune, Tager, Ragna, Carl, they're all cool, I guess, but I don't want to use any of them as my face. It's not about a character who I identify with, of just think looks nice, they... I dunno. I just havn't fallen in love with anyone, found an immediate and illogical, yet perfect connection to. And I know their characters and everything, I've played through all their stories.

Anyway, I've decided to focus my attention on Ragna once I get SERIOUS about the game. I'm sort of taking a break for now.

My current obsession is Persona. I played through Persona 3: FES, both The Journey and The Answer, and loved it. I havn't played many Japanese RPGs, but Persona's a joy. The story, character and art direction are all fantastic, and I'd go so far as to call the ending "beautiful".

The Answer is sort of EEEUUUNNNNGGGGHHH. I wouldn't recommend it, I'd just watch the cutscenes. It's the expansion campaign added in FES, but the only part that really answers questions left in 3 is the ending, where you find what happened to the protagonist. Nothing else really needs to be heard.

So I started on 4 and it's groovy. Only 4 hours in, though. The first 3 hours are just exposition and tutorials. Seriously, it just establishes the setting and some of the characters, with two boss fights that offer no challenge, only serving to test whether or not you have a brain and/or a working controller.

I've been saving long-winded posts of mine. I've started because of these threads I made on /v/, where I'd pretty much complain about MegaMan: Battle Network 3 each night. It was mostly just observations on how dumb the setting is and complaints about how easy the game was. They were really just journal entries. I was actually upset when my thread faded away, because I was really into what I was writing. When I went over what I had typed a day before, I didn't have much to say. You stop caring about the boss once you get to a new one, you know?

Here's one I wrote about Resident Evil.

I've never understood the giant animals. There are always giant animals.

0 had a giant scorpion on a train. How did they get a giant scorpion on a train? You're too big you don't even fit.
1 had Yawn, the gigantic attic snake. And a giant plant. And some giant spiders.
2 and 3 had lol I never beat those.
4 had the giant salamander lake monster.
5 had a bat with a big red ass and GIANT ENEMY CRAB.

Now are these all BoWs? Because who the **** in their right mind thinks a giant snake is the best solution to any problem, gets people with money to agree, and spends time and money making big stupid animals that they then randomly throw around with the hopes of killing people?

And they die to armed police officers. Not groups of them, just pairs. Hell, half of the battles are fought by just one person.

In short, Resident Evil is stupid because it has giant animals.I

So there were nightly Persona threads, made by this guy whenever he was playing it. I posted updates on how my journey was going. Eventually, though I started sleeping through the threads. However, I wanted to talk about what I'd done, so I started keeping a journal independently, updating every time I turned the PS2 off. I wrote a hell of a lot.

So, I kept a journal on the game I was playing, which, for someone like me, is a journal on their life.

Sort of just curious if anyone will actually read this. I may post my journal at request.

Let's talk about TWEWY and FFTA2. I bought those games Wednesday night and I want to talk about them.

TWEWY- I was initially impressed, but it's worn off a bit. I've played it quite a bit, and the combat has grown a bit stale. It seems that I just mash left or right while slashing my enemies wildly. And this is with the difficulty cranked all the way up. I'm controlling my partner manually and I'm always set to level 1.

I dunno. It's cool, but not as cool as I first thought it was.

FFTA2- I've played this for about 3 hours. I have one major complaint- Judges. Those ****ing Judges.

Let me tell you about Judges. In the world of Ivalice, there are men who enforce the law. They are extremely powerful. They can teleport to any location at will.

You know what they do with this power?

They troll.

I'm not even joking. They use their power to do nothing but piss you off.

Okay, so I've encountered a group of bandits. They've seized a highway and they demand toll. So, we're gonna fight. A Judge comes in. And you know what he does?

He tells me not to use fire.

What the ****? Why is he making pointless rules? There are bandits he could be arresting, and instead he's going to tell me what I can and can't do while taking them down myself?

And some of these rules are just ****ing stupid.

I was doing a thing once, and he sets the rule that I can't use ranged attacks. Well, sure, whatever, I can do that. Anyway, I start attacking, and I land a critical hit that sends my enemy flying back a space.

I fail the mission.

What the **** is that about? I can't help it if I land critical hits. And it counts as a ranged attack if I knock my enemy back?

And the rules don't apply to your enemies.

I was doing a tournament thing, and he makes it so I can't use MP. Well, ****, now I can't use magic. And who am I fighting? A TEAM OF ****ING MAGES. So they're setting my ass on fire, but I'm not allowed too return the favor or else I'll be penalized in some way. I'm not even sure what he'll do if I break the law most of the time. I failed that mission earlier, but that was some weird test set up by a Judge, so I think it's different.

Anyway, Judges are bull****. I have no idea who thought it would be a good idea to put them in the game and I have no idea why he wasn't killed by those around him.

I swear, the laws weren't so bad in the first FFTA.

Whatever.

Life isn't too good. Bored, depressed, the usual. But it's getting worse. I'm not sure how much more of this I can take.

I dunno, I felt like complaining.

This is gonna be a long one. I have a lot to say, and you're gonna read it and you're gonna like it.

I turn on my TV. It's on channel 42, TBS. TBS, mind you, is a channel that shows comedy shows and movies. Anyway, I sit down and just decide to look at whatever's on.

There are two women in lab coats looking at a dead body on a table. It has a wound on its neck. Anyway, they're kinda just poking the body with a stick. One of them says something about something, and the other woman is like, "You can go if you want." and she's like, "Okay, thanks.". After she leaves, a man enters. He's wearing what looks like SWAT gear. It's black, he's got a vest, he's got a... utility belt, he's got a gun, he's some kind of soldier. He says something. I forget what it was, so it probably wasn't important.

The camera cuts away and we see a group of men with identicle gear making their way through a corridor. I notice that their leader is The Rock. Then it hits me.

I was watching Doom.

I'll try and describe what happened at the beginning as best I can.

Okay, there's this research station on Mars (I think it's Mars, anyway. It should be Mars. I mean, it's where the ****ing games take place.) where they're doing... science, and conducting an archeological dig. Anyway, some scientists went missing, so the government sent in a team of soldiers to investigate.

My first complaint- There is no Doomguy. Doomguy is the only main character in Doom 1 or 2. He's the one you play as. He's the hero. He's a staple. Doom 3 has a Doomguy, but there are other characters, and there's an actual story going on around him and... whatever.

You know what Doomguy wears? Green armor. It's what Space Marines wear. It's their unform.

These guys in the movie? No green armor. Instead, they're wearing modern-day ****.

And there's a team of them. Doom is not about teams. Doom is about a lone soldier blowing the **** out of demons.

And their weapons? Modern-day assault rifles, shotguns and pistols. No plasma weaponry here.

That leads me to my next complaint- one of the soldiers has a minigun. That... that doesn't make sense. I mean, I don't care if things make sense or not, but you have to choose one or the other. You either have things make sense, or you have them not make sense. You can't have some things making sense and others not making sense.

And I mean, a minigun? What the hell, they're a bunch of soldiers checking out some dead scientists, and they give a guy a minigun? I... I just don't... I don't know.

Anyway The Rock and Minigun Guy are walking and they hear a noise come from the air duct above them. Heavy Weapons Guy moves a grate and gets a boost so he could look inside. Then a face pops out at him. He falls back.

"What was that", The Rock asks.

"Some kinda monkey!", Heavy replies.

A monkey. He saw a monkey.

Anyway, the thing starts rattling around in the vent and they fire at it. Blood drips through the bullet holes. The Rock, for no ****ing reason, decides to catch a drop on his hand. It seems that there are weird black things in the blood. Not, living things, just... I dunno, black things.

The camera cuts away to the woman we saw earlier. We'll call her Jenny. She's kind of sort of important. They never say her name, so I have no idea what it is. She's a doctor or a scientist or something. She's the woman who stayed back to look at the body from earlier.

Anyway, she's drawing blood from the dead guy. He has those black things in his blood.

Now, if you're like me, you get it right away- demons have that black stuff in their blood.

Anyway, some other guy from The Rock's team say something about the sewers, and they all meet up in there. Anyway, they're looking around, and they see a dead body. Out of nowhere, a monster attacks one of the guys. It pins him down and puts it's mouth on his neck. He then pulls away, and his tongue remains attached to the guy's neck. Then it falls off and slithers away.

A few complaints here.

1. The dialog between the soldiers is ****ing stupid.

2. Alien ripoff?

3. His tongue is a seperate organism?

4. This monster is not actually from Doom. Now they kinda resemble the imps from Doom 3, but they aren't brown, they don't have spikes, they're bodies are a little different, and they're like, flesh-colored. They kinda look like a combonation of the imps and hell knights from Doom 3.

Why couldn't they just use imps? Why the tongue bull****? Seriously, why aren't the using monsters from the game?

Also, two things I'm gonna point out now. I'm just sorta mentioning them now because they're going on, they're supposed to be important but they really aren't important, and I don't really know when or how to bring them up, so I'm just gonna spit it out now.

1. The UAC logo is all over the place.

The UAC is a staple of the Doom series. In Doom 1 and 2, you see it on some crates and stuff, it's not really important, but there, so whatever. In Doom 3, they're actually important. In Doom 3, they're in charge of the outpost on Mars, and you hear a bit about them. They're important, that's all you need to know.

2. There's this guy with... wheelchair legs. He has a wheelchair from a lower body. They call him Pinky.

For those of you who didn't know or have forgotten, Pinky is the name for one of the enemies in the Doom series. They're a staple as well. Now, in Doom 3, the pinkies have robot legs. Like, they have a massive... front half, but they're missing they're back half. It's like they were cut and half. And given robot legs. I have no idea why, stop asking.

Oh! I forgot, the dead guy who Jenny was messing with, he was referred to as Carmack. John Carmack is one of the biggest figures behind Doom. He's a pioneer in the games industry. He's important. He's like Gabe Newell, or Shigeru Miyamoto, or Hideo Kojima. Look, he made FPSes. You should respect him.

So with Carmack, Pinky and the UAC logo, it seems like they're making references to the series.

Anyway, like I was saying, the monster (We're calling them imps from now on.) was on top of the dead dude and some guy comes and shoots it. Then another imp comes out. And I think one more does. Anyway, they kill the demons.

So they drag the wounded guy to Jenny, throw him on an operating table and begin doing emergency room ****. They take his vest off, apply pressure to the wound, and apply some... things to his chest. Oh, and they use one of those oxygen mask-pump-things.

And it's not doctors doing this, it's the ****ing soldiers. They seem to be doctors. Or nurses. Or interns. Or maybe their mother's friend's cousin's roomate was a doctor and they went in one day and learned how to save lives.

So the guy his hooked up to equipment, his heartbeat is being monitered. They come in with the... defribulators? Anyway, they come in with those shocking paddle things and press them to things they stuck on his chest.

THE ****ING SOLDIERS ARE DOING THIS. WHERE DID THEY EVEN KNOW TO FIND THIS ****?

Anyway, they spent a minute or two trying to revive him. They give him an adrenaline shot (SOLDIERS) and zap him about 5 dozen times. Unfortunately, he died.

Then they notice that there's a bloody table where Carmack once was.

The Rock's all like, "RAAAARRL!" and Jenny's like, "I dunno where he is. Stop asking."

Then they call a quarintine. They lock down the station. They move all the people to... some place and a bigass door closes behind them. Pinky is there for some reason and The Rock hands him a handgun and some grenades and tells him to throw a grenade if the demons get through.

They're using a cripple as a sentry. I have no idea why it became his responsibility. He even says, like, 5 times, "I'm not a soldier!". I assume that The Rock is just being a dick. Or maybe this movie is totally ****ing stupid.

And Jenny's in her lab. She has these weird doors, they're solid... metal or stone or something, but if you punch in a code and hit the buttong next to it, it turns into a... forcefield-looking thing. You just walk through it. Anyway, she's safe in her lab. I have no idea why she's staying back. Oh, and there's a soldier with her.

I swear, I don't know what's going on either.

Anyway, the soldiers go to the dig site. Remember the archeological dig I mentioned earlier? Well, The Rock thinks that if he checks it out, he might learn where the demons come from. Anyway, they look around and find... nothing, I think. There might have been a dead a guy, I don't remember.

So, Jenny's walking in this hallway, and the soldier protecting her scares her for no reason. Then, a puppy steps out of the shadows and starts snarling and foaming. The soldier points his gun at the dog. They just sort of stand off until the dog wimpers and runs off. Then the guy looks behind him and there's an imp. Anyway, he shoots and misses a few times, Jenny opens the door to the lab, they run in, and they close the door on the imp. Like, the stone forms around him and he's stuck in place. Then his tongue flies off into the lab.

Then all the soldiers split up. I have no idea why. The Rock goes and gets a BFG because it makes him feel like a big man. The other guys... I don't know. They're doing something, I'm sure. Anyway, Heavy Weapons guy is standing at a door with this one guy who's always making stupid comments. We'll call him Random. Anyway, Random turns to Heavy and says, "I gotta take a dump.". He says "****" in the movie, but I was watching this on TV, so he said dump. Heavy gives him a weird look and says something and Random's like, "Unless you want me to take a dump right here in my pants." or something, and then he goes to the bathroom.

We see a bunch of shots of Random on the toilet. I... I dunno, I guess to show us what he's up to. Meanwhile, Heavy hears a weird noise and goes to check it out by himselfOH GOD WHAT THE **** ARE YOU DOING? ARE... ARE YOU ****ING STUPID OR SOMETHING? And to make things worse, he's black. The black guy never lives. Anyway, he goes to some... big hole. There's chains hanging down into it. I have no idea what it's supposed to be. Then, a demon attacks him.

Suprised?

He drops his huge retarded gun and gets... I think the demon grabs him and swings him around. Anyway, he takes a beating and gets tossed into the Mysetery Pit. It's like, 3 stories deep.

So, he's lying there. Then he gets up. He shouldn't be getting up. He should have broken bones. Anyway, the demon leaps into the hole. Now, if I recall correctly, this demon was bigger than others. He resembled one of the hell knights from Doom 3. Anyway, there's this computer in the Mystery Pit. It looks like it's from the 90s. It's got a huge off-white moniter. And you know what Heavy does with it? He grabs it by the cord and swings it around like a flail. He hits the demon in the face with it. I think he also hits it a few times. And he eventually grabs a giant ****ing pipe (I have no clue where he got it) and... what you need to comprehend is that this pipe is giant. It's huge. Anyway, he thrusts it into the demon and pins it to the wall. And you know what? The Mystery Pit has electrified walls. I... I have no idea what's going on. Anyway, the demon's getting electricuted, and somehow, the pipe is like... it's against the opposite wall. It's that big. I have no idea how it got that way. I don't know where Heavy got it from. I don't know how he can swing it. I don't know why he isn't ****ing dead. Anyway, he climbs one of the chains. The demon bends the pipe to free himself, and tugs the chain. This sends Heavy flying towards the ground, where he meets his doom.

That scene is totally ****ing stupid.

Oh, and Random gets attacked on the toilet. Some demon makes a hole in the ceiling and grabs Random and it starts swinging him around. All the other guys come in and The Rock fires a shot from his BFG at the hole. This like, melts the ceiling. I... I don't know. Anyway, Random falls down and he's crispy. He's dead. I think the demon is dead too, I'm not sure.

The Rock storms into Jenny's lab with this one guy who is important to the story. He's got some codename I can't remember, but I think he's also referred to as John. Anyway, The Rock says that four of his soldiers died (Four? I counted three. I must be missing one. Whatever.) and demands to know where the demons come from. Jenny's like, "I don't know anything, all we do here is science!" and The Rock's like, "WHAT KIND OF SCIENCE?!" and Jenny's like, "I don't know! Normal stuff.". Then she says that she doesn't know anythign about ten more times and then she admits that she does know something. I... I don't know why. Anyway, she's supposed to protect some data. They look at the data, and it's a video of some guy getting injected with some **** called Chromosome... 24? I think it's 24. Anyway, he gets injected and he goes crazy, he's kept tied down and he's lowered into the Mystery Pit on some table and he turns into a demon.

Something I forgot- They brought Random and Heavy's bodies back to the lab. I have no idea why. It would also seem that they got Heavy's body of the the MP somehow. I'm not even touching that one.

Anyway, it seems as though the demons are caused by experiments with Chromosome 24.

Do you realize what this means?

There were no demons. They were mutants all along.

WHAT THE ****? There's no demons in Doom? You... you can't do that. I mean, demons are a part of Doom. They come from Hell. They throw fireballs, they make pentacles all over the place, they're demons. I just... that pisses me off.

Anyway, the guy, I think his name is John, so we'll call him that, John wants to destroy the data, The Rock wants to take it.

Anyway, the de... mutants broke through the door that Pinky was in charge of. It seems as though leaving someone with no legs or military experience to guard something is a bad idea. Anyway, The Rock and John go through the door into a portal. It says that the portal took them to Nevada. I... I don't know what to say about that. Anyway, The Rock wants to kill everyone and everything at the... base? We'll call it a base. So they go around shooting corpses in the head so that they don't to turn into demonsImeanttosay mutants.

Then uh... some stuff happens. I think the remainders of the team get back together and they go around. Anyway, one of the soldiers, Kid, finds a room full of people. He tells The Rock and The Rock wants Kid to kill them. Kid doesn't want to. The Rock says to kill them again. Kid says "Go to Hell". The Rock shoots him in the head. John is there and he's pissed, and out of nowhere, Pinky rolls up and he points his gun at The Rock, and then there's a d-DAMMIT-mutant behind him. The Rock and John shoot the demooooooh, dammit, mutant and it just completely beats the **** out of Pinky.

Then there's demons everywhere... there's mutants everywhere and John and The Rock run down a hallway and try to close one of those weird doors, but it won't close, and The Rock gets caught by the mutants and the door closes.

I'm not sure how, or in what order it happens, but the soldier protecting Jenny dies, and John meets up with Jenny. Then John and Jenny run someplace and they make a barricade and John is hurt and he's gonna die and Jenny injects him with Chromosome 24.

I forgot to mention, only some people turn into demons...

I forgot to mention, only some people turn into mutants. Demons...

Demons won't....

Mutants won't stick their tongue into the necks of people who won't turn into monsters. That's why some die, others turn.

In fact, Chromosome 24 will actually make you superhuman if you take it and don't turn. That's why Jenny gave it to John.

Anyway, John wakes up and looks into a mirror. This scene of the movie is done in the first-person. He picks up his gun and loads it. He steps out and kills some zombies.

Yes, there are zombies. I have no ****ing clue how they got there. They're fast zombies, too.

Anyway, John's just going around shooting zombies and imps. There's this one part where a zombie's holding a hatchet in the air, and John shoots it and the hatchet flies out of his hand and sinks into his head. I... I don't know why that zombie was the first to use a weapon. And where did he even get it? I mean, there aren't just hatchets lying around at bases with teleporters. I dunno. Anyway, John encounters a zombie with a chainsaw next. It reminds of me the enemies from Doom 3. Wait... THEY'RE USING ENEMIES FROM THE GAME?!

Anyway, he kills that, then he gets attacked by a pinky, just like the ones from Doom 3.

I... It doesn't make sense to me. I mean, they're waiting until the end of the movie to start actually using material from the game? That's... it's...

Anyway, the pinky is Pinky. It's got his wheelchair legs. I have no ****ing clue why he's the only person to turn into a pinky. And why a pinky? I mean, I understand people mutating into zombies and imps, but a pinky looks nothing like a human. Whatever.

Anyway, he drops his gun, and for no reason, there's a chainsaw next to him, and he fights the pinky with it. Then he drops it and picks up his gun again and shoots the pinky in the head, killing it.

THIS MOVIE IS ****ING STUPID.

Then John finds Jenny. I don't know how they got seperated. Whatever.

Then The Rock shows up and he's got a wound on his neck.

Then there's a stupidass fistfight between John and The Rock. During the fight, The Rock says, "Semper Fi" leading me to believe that they're US Marines. I mean, everyrone in the movie has an American accent, so it doesn't really suprise me that they're American. And in Doom, the main character is a Space Marine, so it's just like the game!

Anyway, John opens a portal, The Rock gets sucked into it, for some reason, and John throws a grenade in after him. I assume this kills The Rock.

And then John and Jenny ride an elevator. They ride it home.

I still don't know her ****ing name.

In case you havn't noticed, this movie is completely ****ing awful. It fails as a movie, it fails as an action movie, it fails as a videogame movie, it just fails. I mean, the only reason I watched it is because it was Doom. If it was anything else, I wouldn't have watched it. I mean, even my desire to finish a movie once I started it couldn't keep me watching that movie. I only watched it because I was a Doom fan, and I needed to finish eating the **** they put on my plate.

In conclusion-

THIS MOVIE IS ****ING HORRIBLE.

It's been like a month. For a week or so, I quit GS completely. I just stopped coming. However, boredom brought me back. GS has pretty crap lately. I just see less topics that I find interesting.

Anyway, the weather's improving. It's a great temperature outside.

My life has been boring. Nothing good has been happening, and it seems as though the bad things only grow. I'm not happy with the way things are, and I don't see things improving any time soon. Oh well, I'm getting by. I'm not sure if I can keep it up forever, though.

I've been listening to the Moonlight Sonata a lot lately. I heard the song and got it stuck in my head a while ago, and I bought it a week or two ago (I have a hard time keeping track of days) off of iTunes, and it says I've listened to it 126 times now. It's nice music to have in the background. Calming.

I've spent a lot of time /v/, the videogames board of 4ch*n and Vidya², a stream on Mogulus lately.

/v/ is a board free of censorship. There are rules, but mods are seldom present. And by "seldom", I mean "seriously, I never see them". It's not the best, but they amuse me sometimes. I've also gotten a ton of cool pictures from there.

Vidya² is a stream... I guess I should explain what a stream is. Mogulus is like TV on the Internet. There are channels, run by members of the community. Anyone can have a channel. The neat thing is that you can stream in real time. You can cue up videos to play, or you can play what's on your computer moniter, live. And to the right of the video, there's a chat box. The chat is also live. It's fun. Vidya² streams videogames. It's fun. Some games are just interesting to watch, and the chat livens things up. I dunno, I've wasted a lot of time on that stream. I like it. It's fun.

I havn't drawn anything good lately. I've been pretty uninspired. I dunno, I just don't feel compelled. I used to cover papers in doodles, but I kinda have to force myself to draw now. And I can't even think of anything good to make.

However, today I... I dunno, they were talking about Team rocket on /v/ and I just decided to draw something.

It's not the best, but it turned out decent. I didn't put much time into it, either. I dunno.

I end my blog with a hearty sigh.

Pokemon.

****ing Pokemon.

I just spent half an hour in a bathtub thinking about Pokemon.

I... I need to catch them all. I think I'm going to buy a copy of Diamond or Pearl. Or both. I don't know. I have no idea what I'll do next. All I know is that I need some Pokemon.

I got over my old cold, the one I blogged about a week or so ago. And I was in a state of physical wellness for a brief while. I felt physically well during that period. But I have fallen ill again. Again, my nose runs.

I don't feel like talking, but today wasn't a good day for me.

Edit: And OT is **** tonight.

There's something I want. Nothing material, something different.

At first, I thought it was love. Not necessarily romatic love, but brother-sister love, or the love between a protector and the one they defend, or something. I thought that I wanted someone to love me and for me to love them in some way or form.

But I thought about a bit, and I think what I really want is closeness. I'm not close to anybody. But I want to be close to someone. I really do.

I dunno, just something I was thinking about.

Sorry if it's a bit too personal for you.
