New Style

Not much to say other than I've updated the layout of the blog. I've kept the same look since I created it back in late 2006, and occasionally changed the background. I figured it was about time to abandon the old look, and fully update the coding.
I've also changed the style to reflect my recent video blogs I've been putting up.

Hope you like the new design.

It's How You Tell the Story

I thought of this topic while reading comments on last weeks video.



If it wasn't for audience feedback I wouldn't keep getting new ideas. So many things to cover. So many things that affect a game.

The Sound of Silence

I could elaborate, but I'll let the video talk for itself.

Type-Moon

Visual novels are a form of video game that saturates the Japanese interactive market. How exactly such an unorthodox, and old type of game genre (which largely became popular due to how easy they were to make publish to any device), has remained popular is beyond me. However that doesn't mean I don't respect the work that goes into writing the stories found in them.

This bring me to a visual novel production company called Type-Moon. They're responsible for making some the the better VNs out there. But moreover their work tends to become anime sooner or later, and those shows more than often are worth the time to watch.

SO when I first watched the video below two words came to mind: Kick Ass.

Stars and the Saddle

Over the weekend I went out and saw the movie Cowboys and Aliens, and for what it's worth the movie feels like an authentic videogame inspired film. It felt like the games Red Dead Redemption and Fallout 3: Mothership Zeta both ended up in the same screenplay, and I was watching the result.
Granted I'm sure those two games had some sort of influence, but probably not as much as it felt they did. None the less the movie was great for that reason alone. After all if anything reminds you of other great works of art in a positive way, it means you're experiencing something good.



I'd advise anyone who has Played RDR and FO3, to go see this movie.
