Cats. They Don't Dance.



Anyone remember this movie? It's so great. Probably one of my favorite animated movies of all time. And this arrival song was amazing. You go, Pudge.

Video Game Review: Catherine


At first glance, Catherine is just another silly anime-themed puzzle game. However, this game does have a few neat features that give it the competitive "edge." Dohoho. People who have played the game will get that joke... Anyway, like many puzzle games, Catherine becomes addicting as hell after the first couple of rounds. Unlike most puzzle games, it has a story that is presented with beautiful visuals in both 3D modeled and 2D anime-style cutscenes. It's also ridiculous.

You play as a psychologically disturbed man named Vincent who is cheating on his fiance, Katherine, with a crazy psycho-bitch also named Catherine (that's Catherine with a "C"). Coming from the makers of Persona, Catherine also has you living a relatively normal life during the day, but at night is when things get crazy. Vincent's nightmares are all about climbing blocks. Also sheep. But mostly blocks. There are about 2-4 block towers to climb per night, with a boss chasing you up the tower during the last puzzle for the night. That sh*t gets insane. Anyway, there's a demo out for the game on both Xbox live and PSN, so go log in and try it. I give Catherine a 9/10. And one more thing... that butt...

Portal 2 DLC out tomorrow


As the title says, Valve is releasing some free Portal 2 downloadable content tomorrow for all three versions of the game. The pack includes additional co-op levels, a "challenge" mode for both the singler-player and multi-player games, as well as the addition of online leaderboards, which in my opinion are basically useless since a few thousand metagamers obsess over the game and make it impossible for anyone else to even dream of getting to the top. Anyway, I'm still looking forward to the extra levels and can't wait to play them with a couple friends.

P.S. Still planning on doing a review or something on Catherine and From Dust this week, just haven't gotten around to it yet.

This fanfic...


Anyone who is a fan of the game series "Animal Crossing" should read this take on the story of a game with no story. It's so crazy, and in my honest opinion, the best piece of fan fiction ever. It's about... well, you really have to read it for yourself. There are also plenty of pictures for those of you with short attention spans (such as myself). Here's the link: http://lparchive.org/Animal-Crossing/
