curiouscrowSo, on Thursday J invited me out to grab something to eat. He's having a tough go of it. The man that trained him is dying and he just wanted to take his mind off of it. So, we went out to grab some pizza and the next thing I know it's 2200 and I'm sitting in a bar singing at the top of my lungs. It's karoke night. Of course, I hadn't had any liquid courage(I had to work the next day) but it was fun nonetheless. J did go up on stage and sang a Vanilla Ice song. He was amazing. People jumping on stage and this guy(who he thought was hot) jumped up on stage and rapped with him.
One annoying thing was this chick who brought her baby into the bar. Technically it was a cafe because they served food but seriously? The music is blasting, there's cigarette smoke(no smoking in the place but you know how smoke lingers on clothes) and she brings her 5/6 month old kid? Yay, mama of the year you are.
So yeah, this shook me out of my slump and J wants to do it again next week. Next schedule out we have the same days off so should be good times. I'll probably start working on my stories soon~ish. And I'll be getting to all the stories that I've missed since I really haven't been on the internet for the last few days.
And what HAVE I been doing? I was fixing my gaming shelf(shut your face!:P) and I stumbled across a PC game I'd brought a year ago on sell. Just a few shots for good times. Plus...I've been reading the Twilight series. J is super excited...me? Not so much! I think I'm going to reread LOTR and some Jane Austen and maybe move onto Bronte or something.
Opening graphic. Dude, that wolf is fierce. The Witcher was developed by a Polish company. They first game!
Geralt is the main character. He's lost his memory and has to relearn all this stuff again. I was surprised my laptop plays the game so well.
Cut scene.
Where is the freakin; torch? I got my butt handed to me by a ghoul because I couldn't see it in the dark! GAH!

Date: 2009-09-26 06:31 am (UTC)Huh. I've never heard of that game before (apart from Sims 2, I don't really play any PC games), but it looks like fun. I love RPGs because they're like playing out a story. All of my friends are about the graphics, but I couldn't care less about graphics as long as a game has a great storyline (a là Legend of Zelda or OMFGTALESOFSYMPHONIA!!) and at least a decent playstyle (probably the only reason I never liked Fire Emblem--if I wanted to play chess, I'd use a board).
And then of course, I'll occasionally go for something short and cute, like Yoshi's Story (squee!!), or for large groups, something like Smash Bros... or Rock Band :P
Sorry, totally nerding out on your comments section... moving on...
Glad you and J had fun with karaoke. Karaoke = WIN

Date: 2009-09-26 07:16 pm (UTC)I ♥ RPG games! And I started playing PC games after the Sims 2. I saw this one when looking to see if there was a Sims 2 game that I didn't have yet and it was on sale and looked awesome so I had to get it! I'm about the graphics too...for the most part. And...
YOSHI!!!!! I love that little dino! I haven't played Rock Band yet!
Thanks Van! It was good times! I needed it!
