I’m back again! Or am I?

Hello friends! I’m hoping my internet troubles are fixed now. I haven’t had any troubles since last night and all until right now, at least. So we’ll see, but I’m hoping for the best.
I’m also hoping that I get my copy of Batman: Arkham City tomorrow, I really wanna kick more ass as Batman tomorrow! Keeping everything I can crossed that I’ll get it tomorrow. For now I am playing Back To The Future part 1.

And in exactly one week I’ll turn 28. Damn! So much stuff that has happened this year it almost overwhelming, both good and bad… But hopefully its been more good stuff than bad for once.

The king has left the building

Earlier this morning Kristoffer went back home. After staying at my place for almost four days. Four fun days mind you! We watched a shitload of movies, both old and new. Like Insidious and Fast and The Furious 5. While Insidious isn’t that new I hadn’t seen it before, it was nice and a bit spooky. FATF5 was just awesome, fucking awesome even. Loved the action in that movie. Duane “The Rock” Johnson and Vin Diesel where awesome. Paul Walker was of course great too! Good movie is good.

Kristoffer played through Resident Evil 4 from beginning to end. It was nice to relieve that game again, even if I didn’t play it myself. It so much better than RE5.
And as for me now I’m going to spend this whole week devoting myself to Disgaea 4, so I can start playing Zelda Twilight Princess for real. An hopefully around the same time I have my birthday (27th this month!) I can have Batman Arkham City. One of my most anticipated games of the year. Really looking forward to kick ass as Batman again.

And I just added a bit more to my “Xeno” collection today. Joining such games as the Xenosaga Trilogy and Xenogears is Xenoblade Chronicles. The only thing they have in common is the Xeno-name and that they are made by the same people.

Create a Soul – Blast from the past!

I was digging through some old burned backup CD that I have and found some old photos. Photos of mine and Elden‘s custom created characters in Soul Calibur III. Aaahh, it brings back memories. I don’t know how many hours I spent in the character creator, but I’m guessing its dangerously much. It was fun and a bit addictive, especially if you are like me and like creating characters. I remember I spent about 7-8 hours in the character creator in Soul Calibur IV before I even started playing it for real. So that one of the reasons I’m looking forward to Soul Calibur V and its Create a Soul mode. Hopefully it will be more updated this time than it was between SC3 and SC4. The photos are from 2005, so it is a blast from the past!

Here are some of my favorites CAS we/I made. As a bonus I’m also posting Yazuka and
KOS-MOS that I made in Soul Calibur IV.

Jessica (Dragon Quest VIII) Jessica (DQVIII) VS Haru (Rave Master) Presea (Tales of Symphonia)
Rinoa (Final Fantasy VIII) Zelda (The Legend of Zelda)
KOS-MOS (Xenosaga) Yazuka original creation

Design, videos and stuff

Hello again! I’ve finally found a way to add some of the videos I’ve made too my site in a video player. These videos are videos that has been removed from my YouTube account because of copyright claims or other stupid stuff.
So it is going to be swell to have them up here later, first I’m gonna check which ones to upload. I’ll also be changing the design of the site, gonna fix some stuff, might change the whole theme.

I had one video where I did a “remake” intro of the old 80’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon, using clips from the 2003 Turtles cartoon. It was fairly liked on YouTube but then it was taken down, fucking assholes. So I’m currently remaking my remake video. Yo, dawg… So I’ll post the newer version of that instead of the old one as soon as it is done. I’m currently working on a new sprite/pixel video, something I haven’t done in a long while. Its pretty fun and I really hope it turns out as I imagine, sadly I don’t think it will be up anytime soon. Sprite/pixel videos tend to take some time to do, and I really want to get this one as close to the game its based one. But who knows? I’ll be working on it as much and as hard as I can.

I also saw a movie last night that I liked really much it is X-men: First Class. Being the nerd I am I must see every new comicbook movie that comes out and this one did not disappoint, I like it a lot.
It might be a bit slow here and there, but it didn’t get to me like it does in most movies. It was fun to see a young Professor X and Magneto and some cameos here and there. Seeing how the school for gifted youngsters being opened, or seeing how Charles (Prof. X) and Eric’s (Magneto) friendship is smashed. Kevin Bacon was pretty good as the main badguy, he was a bit freaky in the beginning of the movie. I liked the actors, I liked the action, the story. It gave me what I wanted and I didn’t have much hope for this film, so it was a pleasant surprise. Will probably do a marathon run on the old X-men movies some day.

Dark of the moon, baby!!

I’m a bit sad that I wasn’t able to go see Transformers 3 Dark of the moon, on its premier. I’ve done that with the last two and I enjoy watching movies when they premier. No real reason for it, it just feels nice. So I was a bit pissed when the Swedish premier was a Wednesday, stupid workday. But whatever, now it is finally time and I am so very excited a shame they are only showing the 3D version here, especially when they say they would show the none 3D version. Hope its good so my eyes won’t hurt for most of the movie, like they did with Thor.
So I’ll get back to ya all with my thoughts of the movie later. Hope we get some more Soundwave action this time around.

Been taking a break from gaming and it has felt pretty good. I am going to start playing Red Dead Redemption soon at least. I’m just taking a break to rediscover an old hobby of mine. Making videos/amv’s.
I think I haven’t done anything since 2009, so I am a bit rusty. But I looking forward to see what will be made. I am at least trying to remake some of my older amv’s, with a bit higher video quality and widescreen support. So it’s gonna be awesome.

Not feeling to hot…

I’ve not been feeling to good today. So sorry for those of my friends who has tried to make contact with me, I’ve been resting for the most part of today. And I’ll continue to rest, so hopefully can feel better so I can work tomorrow. Can’t afford to be home, plus I have some other stuff to do tomorrow so I can’t be home.
The good thing at least is that I’m not going to work night again until week 31. And after that I’m gonna tell them, I won’t do it anymore. It takes to much of my free time and it doesn’t pay that much extra.

I did actually manage to play a bit more on Infamous 2 today. I’ve now completed it to 100%. I got the platinum trophy earlier this morning. Good game, but I’m not sure which ending I prefer. Either way, It’s going to be interesting to see what Infamous 3 will be about. If it comes, which it probably will.

My friend Ezakiel came over real quick earlier. Just wanted to say hi and have a little chat. Hehe… That bastard, he got me… When I was homeless, I had to give away throw some of my stuff away. Since I couldn’t bring them with me, so I gave him one of my most dearest toys from my childhood. My Dragonzord. It really means a lot to me, so I would rather give it away than throw it away. But he came over and gave it to me, telling me he was just holding on to it for me. People might think this is childish or such, but I love this toy. And right now I’m overjoyed, you really made my day Ezakiel. I can’t express my gratitude, really. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Dragonzord is back!! Can has cheeseburger. PLZ?
One thing I found funny in Infamous 2 was a text on a roof. There was somebody who was starving and then somebody wrote a text under it asking if a particular food could be had. Might not be that funny, but its a pretty big internet meme. Anyway… Here’s what the photo says;  “I’M STARVING! You can has cheeseburger?“.
Check out I can has cheeseburger if you want.
