Apologies for being out of service.

I blame the court system. Or at least, the amount of time and effort it requires to prepare for court.

You see, I am still fighting to have my kids in my life, so random stuff like this blog tends to go on back-burner.

Still, it desperately needs some updates, so here they are.

Valkyrie Profile 2 is freaking awesome. The graphics, the sound, the story line, the real-time-yet-strategical-play-with-insane-button-mashing is all there. Yummy goodness wrapped up in a tiny little package. Worth buying and putting in your permanent arsenal.

My friends at work have convinced me to join them in WoW from time to time but I have so far not felt drawn back to the game. I really am "over it".

On the other hand, City of Villains has me captivated. I'm not sure what to say. It brings games back to the foundations. It's about how well you play, not about how you manage inventory. There is no inventory. (Well, some items are quasi-inventory-ish, but that's minor)

D&D 4E was announced. I am disappointed. I will be hard to sell on the idea that we need a new version right now. Time will tell.

Till next time...
