DAT SEASON ONE ENDING! :awesome: This show is thoroughly entertaining.

Yay, thanks! It isn't yet as I'm not meant to put it up anywhere until the competition is over as part of the rules but I'm very pleased you are interested! I shall put it up once it is safe to. Only one other person has read it and that is my dyslexia teacher/helper person to make sure it has paragraphs. She enjoyed it, so I'm slowly gaining fans. In other new I woke up out of sorts but that soon disappeared when I had Chicken katsu curry for lunch! In terms of University work I am on track, I wanted to be ahead but I was ill this week so fell a bit behind. Got my method written up for my dissertation and hopefully will get some more advice on my results and tips on the discussion next week. I have an essay due in two weeks time an a poster thingy that is looming over my head but I shall get done over Easter. In fun news: I shall be watching Sherlock this evening (season 1 episode 3) as it is much better than I thought it was going to be. Previous judgement based on teenage fans. :p

That was entertaining but the most subtle response to it I have seen yet. Kudos!

I got Everybody's Golf today with my left over points and a reward card with money on so bagged it for 46p. So far it's relaxing to play and fun to get to grip with.

My 3rd Vita purchase. I got it for essentially 46p because of all the points on my card. (they also let me off the 46p)

Oh dear marvel oh dear:

I felt I was going to die today. (I feel this every day) Since I was feeling mortal I decided to get something done so I was spurred into finishing my short story for a competition so I have that written all up now! I can die tomorrow safely.

...I'm unsurprised. People full on all sides of any cause. http://visiblechildren.tumblr.com

Laughter is the 3rd greatest gift. Black Rain (1989, Ridley Scott.) Runtime: 125 minutes American ignorance aside this is still a well directed action/thriller that just seems a bit dated now. Network (1976, Sidney Lumet.) Runtime: 121 minutes. It has the greatest dialogue, superbly satirical which remains relevant today. It has a good ending if a little haphazard compared to the rest of the film. Definitely made me want to shout out of the window. Marie Antoinette (2006, Sophia Coppola) Runtime: 123 minutes. Empty but strangely beautiful at the same time. Compelling nothingness. Modern.

I love you for this. : peace: No wait I take that back I just can't cheat on my only love. (Lumines.)

Ooh! I didn't know the 3rd was coming out soon, I might just wait for that. Although I may be tempted if my RPG cravings reach a critical level. I got called a traitor by someone today for swapping my 3DS for a Vita, I ignored them and continues to play Lumines. :p Man I need to play more Rayman but I'm starting to actually get good at Lumines. If it wasn't clear already I'm addicted to lumines. LUMINES.

Disgaea 2: Dark Hero Days yes or no?

That was quick! Awesome, I was worried if I got it, it would be stuck to a certain memory card which would be a pain. Contemplating a store purchase now.

If I get a game from the PlayStation Store, am I able to transfer it onto a different memory card if/when I choose to upgrade to one with more storage?

I thought it was gonna be like some poor attempt at an FPS but it's more of a third person style arcade shooter with more enfacise on the collecting of points through out the levels (of which there are 36) Obviously only the first available in the demo and it has leader boards to see where you rank, there will be daily challenges and online Co-op play as well. Control wise at first I thought it was a bit iffy but I cranked the control settings to make them more sensitive and it became less jerky in motion. Graphically it's not going to wow you but it's solid for what it's trying to achieve. The characters can level up and I think there are six different classes but I'm unsure how they differ as I have only played as one character. EDIT: There is also an episode of South Park Season 12 episode 1 going for free at the moment for those who may want to check out the video feature.

Been playing the Unit 13 demo and enjoying it much more than I thought I would.

It's too self important and the film thinks it's being "quirkier/clever" than it actually is but it's by no means a terrible film. Emma Stone is always a fun watch. Young Adult Reitman's weakest film but the characterisation remains solid. The narrative is what lets it down it was a bit too simplistic and lacked any real spark for the "emotional" parts of the film to hit home. Mighty Joe Young APES RAWK. The films not that good but man gorillas are awesome.

SOBA Drinking winé and watching crap gothic tragedies with beautiful, hilarious, magical housemate.

My apologies about that Peeps, this game messes with your head and you just appeared to be evil in my head. Felt bad after particularly because I wasn't mafia. I kind of made it hard for myself as I went for the wrong people!

VICTORY!

So I keep going to do things and this keeps getting in the way. Everything this game does is to entice you into forgetting your existence. I went to come on here to post in this thread an hour ago and thought "I'll just have one quick go." ...having said that I'm still learning the "basics" on how to play as my high score so far is only 83,000 roughly. The music is astounding right up my street, it's all very laid back combined with the skins changing it truly is designed to be mesmerising. My one gripe with the game is the loading time after the 30 second mode game because it's over too quickly and I have to wait longer to actually play again. I have never truly played a Lumines game before though I had a quick go on the Xbox 360 and I didn't get into it back then probably because this for me feels more suited to the handheld, as I took it out with me whilst I was out today and played it when I had a spare moment. I'm glad the Avatars are given more purpose than before although I always forget to utilise the rear touch pad to activate them quicker. Glad to see a master mode where you can't use those as well, will I ever get there? Only time will tell.

Vote: Nintendohnut.

...I want to look away but I can't! I lie I don't even want to look away. The screen just draws me in and the whole thing is very addictive. The music player is actually good to use out and about, I tried it today! I could see myself using it regularly once I update to a 32GB card, alongside video which is also good as I put some Phineas and Ferb on their so I'm all set for a big journey if the occasion should arise. As someone who wasn't too drawn in by achievements I love the set up of the trophies, it again for me adds to the addictive quality as it gives you more focus and things to do once perhaps the main stuff is done. I usually dislike Rayman I think he has appeared in some poor games but this is actually something else it's amazing (close to distracting) to look at and has incredibly tight controls the whole display is wonderful. The D-pad on this thing feels so old school. I need to play more of it but I only played a few levels this afternoon and then got hooked on beating my ghost times. I need to try near to see if I can get some gifts/swap ghost times. I think the launch title line up is excellent, the 3DS lacked the variety that this has plus like the setup of loads of PSP titles and other PSN Store downloads off the bat. My next game might be Persona 3 from the store so I can play it before I get 4. Tried out Motorstorm RC it is really fun but I'm unsure it's for me, in terms of control it was a lot tighter than I was expecting but I'm not good at that style of game. Little Deviants was a fun distraction as a demo but nothing more for me. Hustle King was a surprisingly fun pool experience, fairly simple but even the demo drew me in and the fact I could listen to my own music whilst playing was cool.

My Favourite song: Dark Paradise One of the worst songs I've heard all year: National Anthem. She has her ups and downs but overall I enjoy her output as an artist.

Unfortunately I did trade in my 3DS but no regrets so far this is awesome. I got £288 for trading it in + the games I had with it so I got Rayman Origins and Lumines, after careful research these felt the best games for me. I got the 4GB (for now) and some screen protectors! Just had a tinkle about in the Welcome Park and stuck in Rayman which looks gorgeous. I was gonna play Lumines now but it prompted me to make a PSN account so I thought I might as well.
