It's true, they really are. There are few thing I can think of in regards to what makes Tuesday cool, the one that comes to mind first is of course new release day for home entertainment. I don't even know what came out today so that's a good indicator or "nothin' I care about" and thus, a fairly dull day. I managed to sketch out a rough plan for my new shelves, but I neglected to locate the stud on the right, so I still need to do that tomorrow before I can begin to actually install things. As far as anything else, I decided to re-watch some old Venture Brothers and play some Crystal Chronicles on my DS today. Also keeping an eye on good ol' E3 even though not a whole lot is happening this year, much like last year. That is of course aside from price cuts, new hardware, and a few choice titles being explored. Of course I'm happy that they have finally confirmed that FFXIII is not PS3 exclusive, though that has been rumored for at least a year now and nobody except hardcore Sony fanboys thought it unthinkable. After all, we're coming into an age where companies are realizing that there really isn't much point to being an exclusive when your genre does in fact cross borders. It is still economically feasible to have a first-person shooter exclusive to a system because they really are only popular in North America and to a lesser degree in Europe and Australia, but with such a globally well-established franchise as Final Fantasy, one can see that it would be a wise decision to reach all possible gamers and make butt-loads of money. Anyhoos, I would be intrigued to learn that any of you actually read through everything following "E3" seeing as how none of you are really into gaming (though Jessika loves her some Kingdom Hearts). Of course I am the semi-hardcore gamer who loves the new curb-stomping shown in Gears of War 2 and looks forward to shooting hordes of "zombies" in Resident Evil 5 and as such I like to see them in the news as a nice change from the front cover of The New Yorker. The media really does bug me sometimes, but now is not the time to expand on that. :P We''ll see if I can hit three days in a row by updating tomorrow.
