Time to make some Enemies!

Posted by MagitekAngel, 17 April 2011 · 64 views

Reading fellow member Mili's blog made me realize that the Politics and Religion ban doesn't extend to my personal blog. So I'm going to vent!

For the most part, I'm a fairly left-leaning guy who doesn't like the fact that both the United States and Canada are drifting steadily further to the right. Part of the problem for me is...

3DS Impressions

Posted by MagitekAngel, 19 March 2011 · 63 views

I was at EB Games today, and there happened to be a Nintendo employee on-site demoing the Nintendo 3DS. I got to try it out and play with it with my girlfriend for about 20 minutes, and I must say, I was surprised.

Build Quality:
Color me impressed. The 3DS fixes everything I hated about the DS Lite and its incremental successors. The buttons are...

First blog post in nearly a year

Posted by MagitekAngel, 24 February 2011 · 62 views

I am severely depressed today. That is all. Lonely I guess. I wonder if I wasted my time neglecting the social side of university. And I wonder if I really give my girlfriend the love she deserves. I wonder if I can.

I have few vices. I have never smoked, never done drugs, drink in moderation, and don't overspend. But have I lived? Will I ever...

The FPS Kick

Posted by MagitekAngel, 29 April 2010 · 76 views

game

Like many of you (well, at least a few of you), I am of the opinion that there are way too many First Person Shooters coming out these days. Taken on their own, a fair amount of them are good games - hell, some are outright modern day classics. But I can't be alone in thinking we've played through World War II enough times already, be it...

Early Impressions with the PS3

Posted by MagitekAngel, 09 April 2010 · 95 views

game

It may not seem like it here on AtariAge, but for the average person, I've got a lot of game consoles. For example, I'm the only person I know in the offline space that still has every Nintendo console currently plugged into the TV, including a Game Boy Player. So when people come to my apartment to visit and they see my entertainment setup,...

Badassery

Posted by MagitekAngel, 11 December 2009 · 54 views

Badassery is the nominalized verb of the adjective badass. This is to say, badassery is the state of a person, place or thing that is badass.

I am home for my birthday for the first time since I went to university. And I will remain home for nearly a month.

That is badassery.

You know, I actually forgot that I had a blog here on AtariAge. After all, I'm not exactly writing for an audience here. Mostly I'm just putting words on paper (err, screen) for the sake of my own personal amusement. Some days I just type to see how high I can get my WPM (and when I really get going I can do about 90 now, Mario Teaches Typing...

Review: Super Dragonball Z

Posted by MagitekAngel, 01 September 2009 · 81 views

game, review

I'll go ahead and say that I own way too many Dragon Ball Z fighting games. I have acquired Budokai 2, Budokai 3, Tenkaichi 3, and now this lulzy piece of work. There is really no reason for all that sweaty anime fighter action to be sitting on my shelves; I am giving way too much of my money to Infogrames (I can't quite justify calling...

Super Star Wars

game

I found this beauty at the local retro game store for ten dollars. Now I don't have to get it on Virtual Console!

Yeah, it was a great game, that's what I remember. Originally, I played Super Star Wars as a Windows 95 port, if such a thing ever existed. Maybe it was an unauthorized port, because I'm pretty sure this was before the heyday...

A true story

Posted by MagitekAngel, 28 August 2009 · 47 views

life, story time

Boy sits in first grade class, crosses his legs, scratches his armpits. Uncomfortable. Hasn’t caused enough trouble today. Already finished the assigned exercise. Boy is finished before everyone else because he learned to read and write when he was one and a half. That gives him two or three years more practice than everyone else in the room. Boy...
