to take a nap ... or to unwrap my brand new classic pro and get started with monster hunter, that is the question...

 I would take a nap. But since I want impressions, get playing, lackey!

Nice but the Misty from Pokemon cosplay pics rule.

^ That's got to be the WORST Misty I've EVER seen!

...besides, I went to the site and my computer started acting all funny. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone!

Hey sorry I haven't been posting lately guys, though I doubt anyone has missed me. Just not much time to spend posting right now between work and the girlfriend and family stuff.

I noticed you were missing. I assumed you had just left to post on GS instead.

You did?

news:

Indian doctors are studying a remarkable 83-year-old holy man who claims to have spent the last seven decades without food and water

 



Military medics hope the experiments on Prahlad Jani can help soldiers develop their survival strategies.

The long-haired and bearded yogi is under 24-hour observation by a team of 30 doctors during three weeks of tests at a hospital in the western city of Ahmedabad.

Two cameras have been set up in his room, while a mobile camera films him when he goes outside, guaranteeing round-the-clock observation.

His body will be scanned and his brain and heart activity measured with electrodes.

"The observation from this study may throw light on human survival without food and water," said Dr G. Ilavazahagan, who is directing the research.

"This may help in working out strategies for survival during natural calamities, extreme stressful conditions and extra-terrestrial explorations like future missions to the Moon and Mars by the human race."

Since the experiment began on April 22, Jani has neither eaten nor drunk and has not been to the toilet.

"The exercise of taking this yogi under the medical scanner is to understand what energy supports his existence," Dr Ilavazahagan added.

"Jani says he meditates to get energy. Our soldiers will not be able to meditate, but we would still like to find out more about the man and his body."

Jani, who dresses in red and wears a nose ring, grew up in Charod village in the Mehsana district in Gujarat.

He claims to have been blessed by a goddess when he was aged eight, which has enabled him to survive without sustenance.

 WTF?

Also - WOW at that Bungie story. Talk about left field.

 10 year partnership. 

Has Bungie shown themselves to be great originators of successful IP? Other than Halo? I'm wondering what happens if their new IP flops. 

Wow that Monster Hunter pic is awesome! I really want this game... maybe next month.

In other news since I couldn't afford the real a real game I wanted, I went super hobo and visited one of the local Blockbusters that is closing down around here.  And for $3.75 I left with. . . LET'S TAP!!!

I honestly can't believe Sega ever thought this game would sell.  It's not horrible by any means, but after about 20 minutes I went through all of the mini games and my fingers were kind of sore from repeatedly tapping the box.  Out of the 5 games 2 are decent (the running one and the shooter), and everything else is just. . . meh.  This could have worked as WiiWare, but no way in hell was this ever going to be a success.

I'll most likely get my multiplatform games on the 360 unless there are signicant differences between the two. I'm definitely getting SSFIV on the 360 for the bonus of the SFIV save.
