Jimmy, meet yourself.

Sep 08, 2007 03:21

Went to the Games Convention Asia exhibition today, with the sibling. Wandered about like a kid in a candy shop. Both of us were quite taken with Lair: dragon-centric game for the PS3, incredibly gorgeous. However, same cannot be said for the controls. There was also a stage, on which was performed the most excruciating rendition of Sexyback I hope ( Read more... )

Haha, Lair looks incredibly good...and incredibly D&D/Dragonlance-ish. I'm slowly bending to the power of Sony's death grip on all the pretty games...despite the ridiculous price they're PS3s are fetching.

I love dragons. Did I mention that? When I was a kid, all I could think about was how awesome it would be to be a dragonrider (this after my obsession with dinosaurs - my mother was sure I was actually the child of some sort of bizarre lizard).

OMG if you love dragons! Have you seen D-Wars? It's a Korean movie named Dragon Wars, and the special effects are amazing. Here is a trailer on youtube, though I highly recommend watching it from the website for much better breathtakingresolution. I never knew you liked dragons! ♥

If you love dragons, have you ever read Naomi Novik's Temeraire series? It is pretty much amazing, and I would recommend this book a thousand times over. ♥ I don't normally like dragons or naval settings, but this book won me over.

I was obsessed with dinosaurs as a child too! I blame it on Jurassic Park, which had both my siblings and I totally obsessed. My youngest brother wanted to be Alan Grant. XDDD

T_T I know what you mean! I went to the games store today and saw that LAIR cost S$105, or US $68. AND I'd still need a PS3 to play it. *facepalm* I told myself I wouldn't get one til the ENGLISH version of FFXIII came out.

No, I haven't, but OMG that looks gorgeous *_* I don't usually watch fantasy films nowadays unless they've got really high production values like LotR. Did that movie already come out in the theaters? Why didn't I hear about it? T_T Reminds me of Dinotopia...I used to read that series a lot and wish I could live there XD (okay, so they're dinosaurs instead of dragons...whatever ( ... )

D-Wars' wiki entry (warning: spoilers) states that it was released in August 2007 in Korea. Says it's set for a September 14 release in the states. ;) My country has said absolutely nothing about it, so I can only imagine when it's coming out. ;)

! My brother loved Dinotopia! ;) I didn't, but I loved the artbooks. They were AMAZING.

XDDDD!! Eragon was a dragon movie! Did you watch it? Or got scared off by the horrible plot? XDD ( ... )

XD Thanks for the link! Well, why not...when it comes out, I suppose I'll have a fun little romp out with my sister to watch it. I'm planning on going home the week of the 21st to catch up a bit on gaming (also, because that's payday = spending spree DX).

If I find a ripped copy, I'll definitely upload it for you! And Dinotopia has the most ZOMGGORGEOUS ARTWORK. I remember just starring at it with glazed eyes in the library. I suppose I was always an artbook aficionado in that respect.

Ah, I didn't watch Eragon...the plot did indeed scare me off >_O and I hadn't read the book, either. The R.A. Salvatore series is The Spearwielder's Tale. I love the Drizzt series to death, I really need to go out and just buy up all of the books with him in it. He was my...D&D bishounen XD; I don't remember Artemis, and Jarlaxle only faintly in memory...The Spearwielder's Tale is really quite cute and the way it is written is pretty lighthearted and snarky. I love the sarcasm and snark. You should pick it up just as an aside if you get the time!
