Happy Thanksgiving, K-ON GAF!!

And with that, my attempt at a self-imposed Internet Radio Silence has already failed on the first day. That said, not much else to do here home alone besides my work that I've gotta make up.

And re-reading my manga.

And playing the new demos on my PS3 or playing all the other attractions on Nintendo Land in my Wii U.

And watching the rest of K-ON!! on Blu-ray.

I'm doomed.

Does anybody else here ever think about the English subtitles whenever one reads them as a scene plays out and notices spelling or grammatical errors? It bugs me a bit, but I kind of ignore it in the end because I understand the intent of the scene. It's almost like a little game being played in my mind, one of inference or something. Anyway, your thoughts?

 

[Uraizen]

Why must you taunt me so?

Because you started it!

I really could use some cute, happy videos right now.

Nyan dance again?

Well, I turn on subtitles for most things and do notice when the subtitles don't match up with what's currently being spoken. Does that count?

Apparently I'm not smart, but I'm smart enough to know that's a damned good deal. Remember, PSN+ has Uncharted, Gravity Rush, Wipeout, Jet Set Radio, etc. all for free right now. You'll definitely need a bigger memory card, but that's a really good deal.

 

[cjkeats]

I've bought two Vitas, I highly recommend it. Persona 4 is so good on it. My solid gold finally shipped like a few hours ago.
Also, the white Vita is sexy as all hell.

Yu vs Yu is always lulz, but man, 'dat Oki. Looked annoying as hell to deal with. Hope you enjoy fighting an Akihiko/Aigis. Jello will probably be joining us if twitter is any indication. Given how you played, I might have to refresh my memory on some BnBs.

Oh there's more. Beats went on to win the tournament, and another fun fact, I played in the Giant Bomb tournament on launch week and got knocked out in the first round, the guy who beat me went on to win that tournament there too. So I'm blaming it on bad starting bracket luck. (That's my story and I'm sticking to it.)

I was so hyped for the game because I love Persona so much, and I was going to use it as an intro to fighting games and get in the community. I bought two copies of the game(one for each console) and even two fight sticks. I still have't used the 360 stick and the ps3 one is just a permeant remote.

This would probably be the one to do it with since it's pretty easy to get into. The game seems to be very shallow, imo, but that doesn't mean it still can't be fun. I sure as hell can't go wrong with $30, but you better believe I'll drop it the absolute moment BBCP arrives. If you play more than just P4A, I'll make sure that stick of yours gets one hell of a workout.

Spoiler

Oh my.

EDIT: Odd, I don't see you going for lows. That doesn't give him any reason to block low, ever. Do you just keep using his auto-combo? I didn't see you using his 2B in block string pressure either along with his Persona's low, which is what I see every Yu do, I think?

I've got two of the BB games, CT on 360 I bought to prepare for P4A, because I figured they'd be simliar, but got called away on business the next day, so I grabbed what ever one was on Vita for the plane, ended up not playing much because my Evangelion DVD's arrived just before I left for the airport and I brought them with me too and watched them during the trip. It was the same trip I started watching K-on! and thus, returned to anime with a hunger for everything I missed in the last 5-7 years.

I'm flattered you feel that way.

See, what happens is, I get smacked around and I panic, start mashing auto-combo hoping for an opening, once that hits, I take a second to think and try some other stuff.
Also, I'm bad at fighting games and half of what you just said was russian.

CT to prepare for P4A? Ouch, they're nothing alike, but I guess you know that now. I always thought the main appeal of P4A was just the fact it has Persona characters. That opinion still has not changed, but for $30... why the hell not.

I'm flattered you feel that way.

I won't give just anybody's stick a workout.

I ate too much turkey again this year. I'm just sitting here half in a coma wondering why Mark Sanchez is like the worst NFL QB on Earth.

That's just what happens when you eat turkey. Never eat it again.

NBC was replaying that over and over again in slow motion. I couldn't help but laugh every time Sanchez clotheslined himself on his own man and dropped the ball.

in my country, there's no such thing as thanksgiving, so for me it's been a normal week sprinkled with Wii U stuff (though i didn't use it today because i was playing MK7 and Crashmo)

I'm bad with spelling and grammar, so I usually never catch it unless I look a screen cap of it or something. And it's not like I know Japanese either.

That reminds me, I drew something esterday, but since it was for someone I probably shouldn't just post it here. Unless that someone would stop lurking and post it/give the blessing.

No turkey for me (vegetarian) but plenty of other food. And some excellent wine. Had a good time with the fam yesterday . Today it's phone shopping for my mom on the schedule.

Yep, the Jets' performance was pretty lol-worthy. So was Rex Ryan's press conference explaining the whole mess . I do sympathize with you though...I'm a Browns fan, and have had to put up with the likes of Derek Anderson, Trent Dilfer, Jeff Garcia and Tim Couch (among others) over the years. Well, that's just since '99...
