On the cusp of finishing Halo Reach and all I can think about is playing it again.
I think the only games I missed this year that I wanted to play were DKCR and Professr Layton 3. Not too bad considering I cleared a chunk of stuff off the ol' backlog. I had the time to play CoD:BO, but certainly wasn't in the mood.
There's less stuff on the horizon for 2011 than what there was for me this time last year, so I might even clear a few of the PS2 Final Fantasy's off my list.

Bully is probably the only thing i'll pick up from Steam today.
Saw Megamind (in 3d) last night - I liked it. I got put off Dreamworks movies after Shrek 2 and didn't see another until Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, now I'm on a kick haha. There was a trailer for Yogi Bear though, OH EM GEE. Every 3d cliche there is (everything imaginable flying out of the screen) 3d gimmicks are not a replacement for actual film making.
Also, Forest Hill Chase - if any of you live near it and want to do some leisurely Christmas shopping, there's a JB and an EB and the place is dead, The section with JB only opened a week or 2 ago. NO QUEUES at 9pm last night.
Super Meat Boy is fucking awesome by the way, so good. Although I feel like I should be playing it with a controller. It reminds me of N+. Nothing in the steam sale again for me today.
Kritz - Trials 2 is worth the money man, such a frustrating yet rewarding experience haha. Unless you've played Trials HD on 360, then the physics will feel all fucked up. Sweet comic man, it's what I felt like last year haha.

Probably pick up AC2 today, I really don't care about the DRM any more, I just want to play it. Would've gotten Bully but not available in our region and I don't have paypal. Doubt I would get around to playing it anyway.
So far the sale has been kind to me. Super Meat Boy on Day 1 and Puzzle Quest on Day 2.

Might be more fun than dirt 2.

then quit 20 minutes later to play dirt 2
Thanks to the internet, I have absolutely no fucking idea what kind of music our national 'yoof braodcaster' plays and what's popular with the kiddies. I may as well live in my own musical vacuum.
evlcookie - get onto iTunes if you have it and give Brisbane metal band 'The Quickening' a listen. The album you're looking for is 'White Blossoms'.

Why is work having a BBQ today. We are expecting a largish sized apple delivery. Boo these people. I figured tomorrow would have been the day for a bbq and booze.
Will check them out after work bern. The name sounds familiar but i could be getting confused with someone else of course.

Same here, just waiting for 4:30......It seems so far away.
Hey there's a Gin Club song in the Hottest 100 list of Nominees. Ben Salter's other (superior) band the Giants of Science should have reached a lot more national exposure than what they did in their heyday, but at least the Gin Club are enjoying some modest success.
Four Joanna Newsom songs there too - can't be a bad thing.
There is an unnervingly high level of average suggestions in the Podcast of the year thread.

Also, I'm making the most godawful abortion of a logo I have ever made, my boss just had to intervene and make me detach from it. it's hideous. But it's exactly what the client wants. The client being a company with the number 2 instead of the word "to" in their name. and gradients galore. And a Southern Cross. and a border. My poor integrity.

there's also a globe (earth) in there. It isn't going to reproduce under business card size AAARRRGHH.
They designed it themselves in POWERPOINT. How do you even design a logo in powerpoint?
I redesigned it for them in my own time, that's how bad I feel about it, even made their 5 million elements fit nicely but they want to use the dead-on recreation.
I am upset that this is the last job I will finish before Christmas.
/rant. :breathe:
sooo, video games!
I changed prefs to a double degree(multimedia/comp sci) at Swinburne and Comp Science at RMIT, if I get neither (likely) I'm gonna apply direct at midyear intake. I'm going to build a program that analyses people's shitty logos and tells them to fuck off.
i urge you guys to look at this thread on product placement

Any price you see via the website is US dollars, they don't convert it. Most games on Steam cost us the same as the US, and other games are set at regional prices by publishers in which we pay nearly double the US price. You can pay with Credit Card, Paypal and a few other methods.
vege pita ftw mangevlcookie said:Come on Jambo. We were all up at 6am, we know what's on the steam sale
Why are you having Nandos, aren't you a vegie? I guess they have some sort of vegie range?
Also, yesterday felt like it was friday and today as well. Why the hell isn't it friday
I like KFC, their coleslaw is awesome >_<! Their mash and gravy is disgusting, its ok for dipping in chicken into but thats about it....
I actually like chicken burgers with 'rubbish' chicken meat in it, the rubbery type you used to get in chicken nuggets before they went all 'classy'.

It is done. Technically not my top 10 because there were several songs that jjj didn't list that I knew were throwaway votes. Sure as hell wasn't easy cutting it down to 10 though.

No son this is premeditated. Kritz has the misfortune of being gifted Bad Rats. :lol
Arcade Fire's The Suburbs may as well be the soundtrack of 2010 for me. I didn't pick up a lot of recent music, but that one album captured the feeling of the year - highs lows and inbetweens - pretty damn well.
Edit: Namco Sounds' soundtrack for Pac-man Championship Edition DX was pretty fucking shit hot too.
