Dumb Fuckin Bitches

     If i am waving you into the lane at the carwash it does not mean to drive towards me and almost crush my feet. It means pull the vehicle in fuckin STRAIGHT so that both of the attendants are equidistant from our respective vacuums. Next time I see some retard pull this shit I am going to stop them where they are, find the nearest steel rod, smash their windshield in, take a shit on their dashboard and whirlwind kick them in their stupid teeth. You have all been warned.

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem

     I've been looking at this game for a long time and i've always heard great things about it.  I've seen it on amazon for like 40-60 dollars so i always put off buying it. However me, my brother and a friend of ours went to some retro game shop near me and found it for 30 so we snatched that thing up so fast. It was also pretty funny because about 2 days before we found it we were talking about how we should find and play it and we just stumbled on it. I originally went there for Oracle of Seasons and this thing just popped out at us. Major score.

     So anyway, the three of us spent the next 3 nights beating this game and boy it did not disappoint. You play (partly) as Alexandra Roivas who is called with the news of her grandfather's death. She flies out to his mansion to investigate and finds out that this was no ordinary murder as there was no sign of entry and his head is missing. Ick. So she decides to stay there and do some snooping in order to find out what went on. She eventually stumbles on her grandfather's study with a mysterious book in it.

     Now this is where it gets cool. You have to find the missing pages of the book and every time you read it you play as a different person in history that had contact with the book. The first person is Pious Augustus. He is called by some spooky-ass voice and is transported to a temple. you traverse the temple and eventually stumble upon these three artifacts, each one representing an ancient deity. You get to pick which one he takes and that determines which God he will follow and try to resurrect. The rest of the game is spent playing as a bunch of other poor saps that just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time as they are constantly running into Pious and his zombie minions and stuff.

     This game also has one of the coolest magic systems i have ever seen. Throughout the game you find these magic runes and in order to cast spells you have to pretty much assemble the spell by using whats called Circles of Power. Each one has a different number of slots (3,5 and 7) and to cast the spell you have to first choose the alignment, one for each God, and then choose the runes for your spell.  You can either find scrolls in the levels that tell you what the spells are or you can experiment yourself and see what you can cast. If you do it that way though the game won't actually tell you what the spell does but it's all pretty simple so it's easy to figure out.

     Anyway, I totally suggest you all go find this game. Like I said before though, good luck finding it under 40. But if you happen to find it for less than that you should totes snatch it up because it won't be there long. Apparently it's pretty popular. That said, I'm gonna continue on my next project: Legend of Zelda Wind Waker. It's been about 8 years since i last played it so it's like a new experience for me again. I forgot how great that game is. Probably my second favorite Zelda game. Well...that and Twilight Princess...and Skyward Sword. God I love this series so god damn much. May the Goddesses watch over you
