Resident Evil 4.
Best reason to buy a GameCube.
Autumn borrowed her brother's copy, told me to play it. So I finally picked it up.
There was no strafing, and I had some quirks about aiming, but I kept on.
After I beat the game, I tried it again.
Now I'm into my third play-through... such a good game.
Grenading crows for money has never been so much fun!
Other than that, not much has been going on - except that I uninstalled Dr. DivX (again). Seriously, my computer doesn't like it. As in, imagine if a single right click crashes Windows. No copy. No paste. No delete.
Although I think the underlying problem was caused by a crappy .vob encoder. My regestry needs a good scrub.
Still, one moves on. Maybe when I have to finally encode or delete Omen II, I'll fix my computer.
And my philisophical ponder of the erm, month :-P:
Knowledge of the surrounding environment comes through observation, and, similarly, observation leads to knowledge. Now, one can observe and assume, at least, approximate causations, eg, by observing the refrigerator, inspecting the doorway, one can make what may or may not be logical assumptions of cause and effect, eg, that the light goes out when you close the door. However, of course, if you knew that the light was off, such observations and inspections would be unneeded.
So, imagine yourself in a 'closed' environment, as in, everything around you cannot leave, and no new observible things can enter. Given enough time, you should be able to completely understand, comprehend everything around you. Then, nothing knew would have to be observed, you could, from then on, be blind.
A similar situation would be the musician who becomes deaf, surely s/he would still be able to write and play pleasing music.
Now, imagine if you were able to comprehend your environment before being able to observe it, eg, a musian who creates music, as such, you would never have to be able to sense, to see.
So, in such a case, if we were such creations, musical notes, so to speak, then surely an omnipotent, all knowing creator could be unable to sense, to "see" us - and would not have any need to. He could plan everything, make everything into a single unified plan and carry it through without ever being so "weak" as to have to "check up on it".
So God could be blind.
