    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions on the PSP Played through the PS1 iteration waaaay back when I was in high school. I forgot how fantastic the graphics and music are in this thing - and still one of the best stories Square has ever put out (up there with Vagrant Story and Final Fantasy...

    What book are you reading right now?

    The lit-asshole in me says you can get everything Coupland has tried to say over all his books by just reading White Noise, by Don Delillo ;)

    What book are you reading right now?

    Oh good, I feel better now. For years, being deeply immersed in the book industry on all sides, I was beginning to think I was alone in thinking Coupland to be little more than an angsty, thinks-he's-more-clever-than-he-is tool. Glad there's at least one other person who thinks like I do :)

    What book are you reading right now?

    You have my deepest sympathies. (Don't mind me - I'm probably the one Vancouverite who has LOATHED everything I've read by Coupland.)

    Well if it helps add further support, that's two Andrews telling you to buy it. Definitely one of the most pleasurable experiences I've had with a comic OR a book.

    This: http://backlisted.blogspot.com/2011/02/review-daytripper-by-fabio-moon-and.html If you have -any- interest in comics or graphica, READ THIS.

    What book are you reading right now?

    Reality is Broken: Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World, by Jane McGonigal. Anyone with a passing interest in gaming - video or any type of gaming - should give this a read. It deals predominantly with the social catharsis of gaming and how its benefits and potential for...

    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    Just finished Dead Space 2. FUCK THE LAST LEVEL. That is all. Oh, and I will -never- be trying the hardcore mode - I snagged 100% of the original Dead Space's trophies/achievements, but this was as difficult on normal as that game was on impossible. To have only 3 continues in...

    Agreed - definitely freakier than the first. Wait till you get to the daycare though. Flashing back to the school from the first Silent Hill... I repeat: fucking space larvae babies...

    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    Also been playing copious amounts of Dead Space 2... with the lights off and the sound cranked. So much more darkness in this game than the first - so far it's come the closest since Silent Hill 2 for genuinely making me feel unease. Two parts have done it best so far (I've just started chapter...

    What book are you reading right now?

    Such a shame - LOVED Dorian Gray. Ender's was okay, but I think 1) it's very overrated, and 2) Orson Scott Card's raging homophobia has killed any interest I had in his writing.

    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    Castlevania: Lords of Shadow For the most part, it's a good game. It has terrific voice acting and some of the best sound, music and holy-fuck visuals I've seen in a game. It's also got it's fair share of problems. First and most obvious, it's derivative as hell, and not necessarily in a...

    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    Agreed - it's brilliant. I've only played the first two dungeons so far, but intend to jump back in soon (I hope).

    Picked up Mass Effect 2 and Little Big Planet 2 for the PS3 today - add in Dead Space 2 next week and you have three more games I've bought and won't get around to playing for months.

    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    Thing is, I do like the basic conceit for the modern Zeldas, I just think it needs severe tightening up - shrink the worlds, and pack more into them - make them feel alive with more towns, more NPCs, and more variety to the dungeons and boss encounters. Best example, to go back to Darksiders...

    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    I guess I disagree about Link to the Past - I feel it's one of the easiest, but I have also played that to the point of memorization, capping it less than five hours on a single life. Mind you, I got it with my SNES when it first came out, so I only had that and Mario World to play. To this day...

    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    Difficulty? Those two? No way man - go play the originals on NES - especially Zelda 2. If you think Link to the Past (best in the series, no question) is hard, Adventure of Link will have its way with you.

    My fellow video game nerds, whatcha been playing? Part 2

    Castlevania: Lords of Shadow A couple of chapters in and I'm of two minds. Terrific sound, gorgeous graphics (really, amazingly beautiful work), and decent God of War-esque gameplay. But something's not right... I don't know if it's the style or the way-too-serious vibe, or maybe it's...

    Legend of Mana does in fact have amazing music and artwork, but the gameplay and narrative (what little there is) were sorely lacking, especially compared to how fluid and fun Secret was.

    What book are you reading right now?

    Another terrific example of not being able to stick the literary landing: John Twelve Hawk's Traveler trilogy. Two great reads and 9/10ths of a fun third book, and all of it totally undone by a worthless, quick-let's-get-this-shit-out-the-door denouement that completely and utterly betrays the...
