Stuff I Did for the week of 3/27/2011
Californication season finale was kind of amazing and kind of heart breaking. Needs more Carla Gugino. Everything needs more of her.
Watched District B-13, aka French Parkour movie. Plot was terrible in the worst way, was playing with my iPad when anyone was talking. The action was pretty good though.
Also watched 2 comedy specials cuz they were free on Amazon Instant Watch. Louis C.K.’s Chewed up is pretty fucking good. Galifanakis is his own kind of special too, on some show with a generic name.
Shameless season finale ended appropriately. I enjoyed it and was annoyed by it as much as I would have expected.
Archer was really fucking good. Didn’t top last week, but good christ, keep this going.
I watched 12 Monkeys for the first time and I don’t have to watch another time travel movie ever again. Terry Gilliam kinda did it right his first time. Really good sci fi.
Put time into Far Cry 2 on a whim. Was gonna start a new game and rock out like 45 minutes of it. Ended up playing for 2 and a half hours. That game is immersive as all fuck.
I put a lil bit of time into Radiant Historia. I need to square away a spare 4 or 5 hours and beat this shit already.
Played a lil Dirt 2 in trying to get a casual game I can poke my head in every couple days without feeling like I have any real goals other than “Play for a race.” Fucking gorgeous game. Fucking good game.
Also started The Witcher and got through the prologue of Metro 2033. Witcher seems interesting, but I’m deff still in the tutorial. Metro is CRAZY scripted, but I figure it hasn’t opened up just yet.
The new Super Meat Boy levels dropped and I tried to play a bit of that. The menu for it is broken on PC, but i did manage to play 4 or 5 levels. And not beat a single one. But I was inebriated at the time. That time may or may not be at the time of this writing. Yeah … .
I did also attend a Game Night put together by internet friends at the Fat Cat Bar. Stupid close to NYU, so it’s a college bar, but it rocks well. Had a good time drinking fake Heinie’s and playing cards with dudes.
Saw Source Code and that was as good as I expected from Duncan Jones. I love how he managed to patch up the plot hole I saw in the last 2 minutes of the movie. Really goddamn good though.
