Out of the Blue

Turns out I was the one that broke my net connection. Without giving the matter enough thought, I plugged in a modular phone cord without a splitter or a DSL filter, and this turned out to be the cause of my connectivity woes. Luckily I finally made the connection, and things returned to normal immediately.

Speaking of returns to normalcy, I believe we finally got the Tickle ad campaign removed (after a couple of failed attempts) after they slipped a decidedly non-work-safe image (bewbs) into one of their personals. Sorry about that.

Sims 2 = SATAN

Fable = I was thinking about it, but I would definitely prefer the potential PC version. I managed to just about get myself ready to buy the Xbox version anyway....when I realized that I had already packed up my Xbox. Seeing as how it will be about three weeks before I have that unpacked, I will hold off for now and decide what I want to do then. To be honest, the first reviews have tempered my bloodlust for it; it seems like a decent hack n' slash RPG, but still a hack n' slash RPG...

The game that I will definitely buy, though equally delayed due to packing, will be Sly 2. I loved the original and I cannot wait to play the sequel.

I am still playing through Neverwinter Nights in little bits. Baby j33bus is crying over how slow, rough, and dumb the game is. It is like a bad Diablo game stuck in tile-set tech demo. If I wanted to play a "Lone warrior" action RPG, I would much rather be playing World of Warcraft. I am so %!@#$%#$% tired of babysitting the hired help; it is kind of sad how poorly even pathfinding works considering I have both expansions and am on whatever number patch. I know that people say the expansions really liven things up a bit, but the original game (I want to play through them in order) is a real pain in the ass...
Meanwhile, I am still waiting to be screwed by Blizzard
Thinking I may finally see Collateral tonight,
Ray
