video games and holes
Nov. 15th, 2009 04:06 pmSo... Assassins Creed II looks pretty epic, and it's set in Florence. Mitch, ever the moral compass, is concerned about a game that is about killing people. But my motivation was that it's "historical killing people". Is there any reason I shouldn't get this game to test out the PS3? (our ONE blueray disc right now is IRON MAN (which I must say is pretty pretty), soon to be joined by STAR TREK. <3)
My other thought was to get the Batman Arkam Asylum game, similarly highly rated and you get to be Batman. I'm kind of a HUGE Batman fan. (Also, Batman only puts people "to sleep" instead of killing, so Mitch will like that. lol. Mitch is always a Paladin or a Healer... I'm always a mage or something with a big sword.) Seems like games are advanced enough now so that you can actually feel like you're in an environment, not like it was 10 years ago, you know? (so a good time for a Batman or assassin game...)
A lot of you said I should get Little Big Planet... but my main concern with that is that I don't really have a lot of time to BUILD things. It sounds fun, but if it takes a really long time to make a level or customize things, then I just know I'm not really going to have time for that. (I would have loved it when I was in highschool. I spent some rather ridiculous number of hours on Mario Paint...)
But now, when I play video games, I typically want something with fun, simple gameplay,... or something where I can blow stuff up (or stab things) in a spectacular manner.
Random hearts to OSCAR.
GARDEN-
On the front yard front, Mitch accidentally split one of the irrigation pipes even though I was being pretty careful trying to find them before we dug! :( Looks like they can come fix it tomorrow and I turned the irrigation system off,... yeesh!
So,... the two Madame Alfred Carriere climbing roses are planted, and The Prince (English shrub) is planted... but I still have some slightly upset Wildeve roses and one Felicia Hybrid Musk that need to be planted... but we're afraid to dig another hole without figuring out where the pipes are. stymied. :(
ah well, nyak nyak nyak.
