Animals, Movies and such
Today or rather yesterday, since it’s already past midnight here. I went to Skånes Djurpark, to watch all the animal. But I was somewhat disappointed when it came to my attention that the only had nordic animals there. I was expecting, tigers and such… Still it was pretty nice, I’ll try to post some pictures later.
And when I got home I was greeted by the wonderful news that Tales of Xillia 2 will get localized for both Europe and America. It will be released in 2014 and with that we are getting three Tales of games in 2014. The Playstation 3 is still.going strong and I’ll probably be using it for years to come.
Me and my friend Elden watched G.I Joe Retaliation, I liked it. They did Cobra Commander justice in this movie. Cool design, good voice, yeah me like. We also watched the classic Street Fighter movie, you know the one with Jean-Claude Van Damme and Raul Julia. Say with you will about it, but it is entertaining and Raul is awesome.
I made this gif animation from one of the funniest scenes from the movie, we both burst out laughing.

Easter vacation
So nice to have some vacation now that it is easter. I’ve been working so hard and much lately I haven’t had time doing the stuff I love. Like gaming and such. Now at least I have until Monday to do stuff, the it’s back to work on Tuesday. Wish there was some more free time, but better then nothing. And I have really needed this time of, there has been so much to do at work lately. A bit too much at times, but just gotta keep it together a few more month and it’s vacation and then I can take it really easy.
Yesterday I rewatched National Treasure, you know that adventure movie staring
Nicholas Cage. A movie I like really much, I enjoy the sequel too. I hope they make a third one as long as it’s in the same vein if the two first movies. Well after seeing the movie again I really wanted to replay some of the Uncharted games, but that will have to wait until another time.
Instead I have managed to come over a copy of the new Tomb Raider game rather cheaply, so I am looking forward to see if that game is to my liking. I’ve heard mostly good about it, so we’ll see. Right now I am playing the latest Sly Cooper game. Liking it so far, feels and sounds like a Sly game. So I am pretty pleased. A shame what they’ve done to Carmelita though. For me her Sly 2 appearance and voice will be my favorite, so much better than then the rest IMO.
I’m very much looking forward to the next time my friend Elden comes over. We are going to watch the entire season 3 of The Walking Dead. Gonna be great, we did the same with both season 1 and 2. Gotta try Telltales game if the series sometime, I’ve only heard good things about that game. Maybe I’ll get it if it’s ever released on disc for PS3 here in Sweden/Europe.

Super Mario X Ghostbusters
Found this video a couple of day ago and I needed to share it. I think it’s awesomely done and it’s a great mashup of Super Mario and Ghostbusters.

I must watch Pacific Rim!
The first trailer for Guillermo del Toro new movie, Pacific Rim was released today. I am really hyped for this! It really looks like a movie that speaks to every part of me, saw so much in the trailer that I liked. I must watch this, without a doubt! It will premier on cinema on July 17th 2013 in Sweden, so guess I’m going to the cinemas then!

Month of monsters
October is Halloween month, the month for spooks and monsters to roam free! Or something like that. This year I’m doing something different in October, namely me and my friend are watching monster/Halloween themed movies every weekend! We’ve seen some classics and some new ones, like Cabin in the Woods. Which we both liked very much! I am very surprised by that movie, I instantly became a fan. I really thought it was going to suck donkey balls, might be one of my favorite movies of this year. Yeah, yeah, bad movie taste and all that! =P
The last weekend in October (when my birthday is) we are going to watch the original Halloween movie, neither me or my friend have seen that one. With Michael Myers and stuff, yes we are incredible ashamed of that. And we’ll continue our yearly tradition with Freddy VS Jason and then we’ll probably finish of with Trick or Treat.
And we are also going through Dead Space 2, I think it’s pretty boring to play but I love to watch it. So my friend will be going through the game, I’ve had some parts where I’ve been scared and I love it. How come I don’t enjoy playing the games? Not sure actually, but I had to force myself to play Dead Space 1. I liked the story and setting and such, but I could never fall for it as a game. As a movie I would have loved it! Funny how things can be sometimes…
So far we’ve seen Cabin in the Woods, Thinner, Werewolf: Beast among us, The Blob, How to make a monster. If you have any tips on some good movies to watch, write me a line here and I hope I’ll be able to check them out.

Scott Pilgrim and the late online mode
I’m a fan of Scott Pilgrim, I like the comic, I like the game and lo and behold, the movie! The only bad thing in the movie IMO, is Michael Cera, I do not enjoy him as Scott at all. But then again, I am not a fan of Michael Cera and I’ve never liked him. While his roll as Scott is probably the only roll I like him in, I would have preferred if someone else had played the roll of Scott.
Well enough of that. This post is about the game, the downloadable game you can get from Playstation Network or Xbox Live. You know, the Scott Pilgrim game. Yeah, that game. You know what game I’m talking about. Well now two years after its initial release it will finally be updated with an online patch, so you can play with your friends online. Yeah, cool.
A feature I would have loved to seen in the game from the start, but I’m glad that it’s coming. I really like this game, I think its one of the better beat ’em up games since the original SNES version of Turtles i Time. And the music, mm! So good! Yeah, I am definitely looking forward to this patch. It’s unclear if it will be a paid DLC with and extra character as of now. Since the update will release at the same time as an extra character, Wallace. You know the awesome gay roommate of Scott. Seems like this will go for about 5dollars, which I’ll gladly pay for online. If we now have to pay to get the online mode. And I hope some of my friends will too, I want to play this game more with you.
