I GOT THE JOB AT GAMESTOP! I know a lot of people say it sucks to work there, but I'm really happy. I have a nice manager (as far as I can tell), and I'm going to try really hard to provide better customer service than a lot of Gamestop employees I've heard about. Ooh, I can't wait for my first day. :D Anyway -


Check out what I found at Lee Lee's yesterday! I don't know, maybe you guys see them everywhere or something, but I had never seen one in person before. So, I bought one! Unfortunately I took a bite and lost my appetite for the rest of the day. Clearly Snake's taste for this grapefruit-margarine-almond-potato-milk-egg powder crap was swayed from eating raw animals.


Probably most of you have seen this already, but here's the best trailer for the SH1 reimagining I've seen:



I think it looks CREEPY AS HELL and I can't wait to play it. Apparently the SH fandom is ripping itself to shreds because half hates it to death and half is interested. I personally think all the crazy differences make it more interesting.

I have all the achievements for RE5 now, except for the War Hero one but uh, no :/

I'm torn between loving SH:SM and hating it. The gameplay looks really intense and creepy - it'll be a ton of fun to play! I do wish that they'd done more of a remake than a "revival" - I miss the classic character designs. (This version of Harry looks almost like Vincent. Uh, okay.)

Either way, I think it'll be a fun game. But I'll probably view it as a spin-off and not a rewrite of what already happened.

(LMFAO HARRY WITH A SMART PHONE. i still can't get over that.)

Yeah, I would have enjoyed a Harry that looked more like himself (well, how we imagined he would look with the limited pixels at least). At least the large changes in the character designs makes it easier for me to see it as less "a horrible distortion of SH1" and more "cool game based off SH1".

I think my favorite thing about it is the whole point-at-something-and-Harry-comments-out-loud mechanic. Badass.

Exactly. I'm taking it just like the movie. Based on the storyline and characters, but not them. (Why they couldn't have just used the classic, though, idk. It seems like this was so much more work. :[)

I love the monster interactions. That'll be really, really fun!
