tonight's political content


Courtesy of the amazing game-shaped box of insanity that is Blazblue: Continuum Shift Extend, here comes some hard hitting political commentary brought to you by a talking cat person thing, telling it like it is!

If a picture says a thousand words then the above image is a heartfelt appeal to the hunger of the average talking cat person spoken mostly in meows. No idea how the plot arrived at this point but from there we went to a restaurant filled with bounty hunters to then running from said restaurant with the bill unpaid.

Yes this game has enough madness contained within it to keep this going for days and days. In fact I could probably devote an entire blog to every twist, turn and plot development. I won't, but I could. Instead I'll show you a scene from later on where our feline friend gets all pervy with the ladies, because this is a thing that happens in Blazblue.

Once upon a time in the dark ages, in the long ago, in the age before the iPhone and reliable high speed broadband there was the humble video game. You would play it, it would last for a finite length of time and then it would end. You'd move on and play another game, maybe read a book, watch a film, join a ukulele band. You'd cast that game into the realm of memories past, enriched by the experience in some way but no longer actively partaking of it. Now that time never ended as such, those games are still very much around but in the here and now they have been eclipsed somewhat by something else altogether.

anime hair and the end of days

I've just completed a game that, in normal circumstances at least, wouldn't generally be my cup of tea. A game remastered and released in 2021 but which originally arrived in 2010 in a somewhat 'adjusted' manner shall we say?. A game I meant to get around to back then but never did and now that I have finally gotten around to both playing and completing it, I'm not entirely sure if I liked it or not. That game is Nier Replicant or to give it it's full re-released title:  Nier Replicant ver.1.22474487139... because clearly the game alone wasn't baffling enough....

blood, magic and seawater...

Haven't done a book review for the blog in a while, not since the dark days of 2022 and that William Gibson trilogy I endured. Instead here's some assorted thoughts on a book I just finished, 1987's On Stranger Tides by Tim Powers. Expanded and revised from the review I posted recently on Amazon and Goodreads, all ill-judged opinions are my own. The short version: It's a rollicking yarn full of pirates, ghouls, dark magic and bloodshed, I really enjoyed it, thanks for coming! Oh you want the longer one do you?
