Couple of random comments
Apr. 24th, 2004 05:16 amFirst off, Bruce Baugh has a link to his other weblog, which has an excellant essay I think everyone should read.
Tonight I hung out at Eben's house for a little bit. He got an X-Box recently (poor bastard ;) ) and we rented GTA: Vice City to see if there were any inherent differences. Hell of a graphics overhaul, and I learned that the X-Box can copy CD's and play those copies through GTA's radio system. That said, by the time I had to go... if I had to hear that first song on Eben's Hoobastank CD one more time, I'd have to bite someone's face off. I figure Eben'll probably read this at some point, and if he does I just want to stress that it's nothing personal. But for some reason hearing Hoobastank more than once in a short period of time brings in me an urge to kill normally reserved for door-to-door religious recruiters and having to GM for powergaming twinks.
