In case anyone is unaware all the BF4 expansions are free for the next few days. They also updated the game-front UI to their new series-standard and it's sort of eerie.

Out of curiosity I checked and that is quite literally him.

I don't think I'm interested in a CoD right now but I am digging it the more space-cartoon it gets.

It's still difficult what to make of how this informs the long term direction of consoles - is this the 1st step for incremental Playstation updates or an irregular reiteration? Happy with my base model in any case, glad their won't be too drastic as disparity as may be feared.

Please enjoy this six second video my mum sent me of my brother's-girlfriend's dog Lupin digging (apparently he's been in a lot of trouble for digging up the neighbour gardens).

"Sir, please, I think you've had enough..."

Went to see When Marnie Was There at the wonderful independent cinema with the big screen. Wonderful movie, what a perfect swan song for Ghibli. Really made me want to go check out the book. Thought I'd managed to avoid crying until the credits when they played "Fine on the Outside" by Priscilla Ahn. It all hit rather close to home.

I DEMAND you all look at this nice kitty family my Dad & his girlfriend recently adopted from the RSPCA: 1 y/o mama Molly and her 10 wk old kittens Margot (all black) and Chester (black & white). Formerly abandoned now likely to be spoiled rotten.

Got a new job, better pay, better work, better schedule, better work space, NOT retail... problem is I don't start until the 19th (could've started earlier but my manager still hasn't pulled his finger out and HIRED SOMEONE) so until then I'm still going mad at my crappy current/soon-to-be-old job being all-

Played it and enjoyed but I had a strange revelation: It's a great CoD-style of game and something about any CoD-style game in our post Overwatch/Splatoon/Doom world feels so dated. There's nothing wrong with it and the mobility & titans are great but I can't imagine myself engaging with it in single or multiplayer like I have those games. Despite it's evolutions it definitely looks, plays, and feels like a Call of Duty and I haven't felt the need to go back to one of those since the Modern Warfare trilogy.

Are we sure this isn't a pachinko machine?

Oh nooo. Please give him many kisses from me!

If you're not watching already go put on the Men's tennis final RIGHT NOW. 3rd set about to start - Murray's strong & masterful, Del Potro is pushing himself beyond his own limits. It's a titanic final. Both fighting for every point. EDIT: Apparently the final goes for a full 5 sets. I'm not even the biggest tennis fan but this is a treat.

Thinking I might wait until they patch the space freighters in. Want to wait until I get a couple of free days anyway and I love myself some space trucking.

Phone interview on Monday, face-to-face interview for another job Tuesday. Anxious but eager.

"When you see him, remind him that I have a particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career..."

You're on a mission. To explore strange new worlds. To seek out new life and new civilizations. To boldly go where no one has gone before.

Wondering if I shouldn't plow through and finish Doom and/or Bayonetta 2 before I get this, I'm up to my neck in AAA+ backlog as it is. Games are just too god damn good right now.

Giving the job hunt another turn with the new Uni term bearing down on us in a few weeks, the University continuing to expand rapidly and the store already operating over capacity with never enough schedule hours through the year. Off to a slightly irritating start. Need to respond to a barely-decipherable voice message that sounds like it was left by one the with a phone number that doesn't work. Didn't realize HSBC had call centers in Titanica.

Oh no that's terrible! We lost another good one without even realizing it.

God, I'd forgot about that. I hope so. Might depend on how publishing-legals work out but region locks get more pointless on every format every year.

I bought a refurbished 40" TV because I DESERVE NIcE THINGS.

I vote that we wait for Nintendo to confirm it all and then we shut this thread down. I want it recorded for posterity. PS. This all sounds pretty much what everyone was probably expecting. Bring me my single Nintendo & PC future.
