ゲー (Definitely Not 「ゲイ」)
As promised, here are my comments on the other Dreamcast games I got from arifyn (and played):
Shenmue: I remember hearing long ago that Shenmue was supposed to be an innovative, realistic game, so I wanted to try it first. As noted before, it turned out a bit differently, but once I was done with Eternal Arcadia, I went straight to this one. It ( Read more... ) -

More Assorted Comments
- A week or two ago, Mother watched some TV show-I think it was titled What Not to Wear, or something like that. Best as I could tell, the premise was: 1.

More Musings on Japanese Animation
- For some reason, it didn’t occur to me until the other day that it’s called "menos" because good souls are called "pluses," right? Of course, that doesn’t explain why it’s in Spanish. . . . Incidentally, "Hueco Mundo" means "Hollow World"makes sense.

Random Thoughts
- When I was thinking about the title The Once and Future King, it occurred to me that it would be interesting if King Arthur returned from Avalon and tried to conquer modern England. He'd need some magic support or modern allies, though.

嫌がらせの為、時々日本語のSubjectで行こうか・・・
Thanks to blitzcon, I managed to mount one of my flash drives in Linux. Yes, I have four of them. But let's talk about the one that worked first. It was more or less as directed, other than the fact that it said fat16 was not supported by the kernel, so I lied and said it was vfat. That seemed to work. I've transfered two 900+-MB loads using the mounting ( Read more... ) -

Boke of the Day: "The currency of Japan is the en. It was Westerners who mistook it as 'yen.'"
Tsukkomi of the Day: "The country is Nihon (or Nippon). It was Westerners who mistook it as 'Japan.'"

「こみパR」
The other day, I found the CD blitzcon lent me containing the first three episodes of COMIC PARTY Revolution. I had completely forgotten I had it. This certainly isn't something I'd bother to download myself these days, but as before, I decided to watch it in the hopes of being able to have some interesting discussion with readers who have also seen itSo I ( Read more... )
