I don't think you can.

I was browsing TitansGo.net forums last night out of boredom. Holy shit we were all so young. Did you guys know people still post there? What the fuck is there to talk about? The show's been canceled for like four years now.

Hey. Guys.

Guys.

Let's make a website for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I'm super serial. Call it MyLittlePonyville.net or something.

It's the next PPGWorld and TGN. Let's do it.

I forgot to post about this but a few weeks back, right after Christmas, I went with a friend and her boyfriend to Video Games Live. I had always wanted to see the show, but I just never got around to it. But here I went with no plans at all until she asked me to go with them, which was the day of. As luck would have it I was able to buy a seat right next to them that was still free. And they were good seats too!

So how was the show? It was amazing. Seriously, I was expecting it to be good, but I was completely blown away. They didn't play everything I wanted to hear (for example, there was no BioShock, Silent Hill, or Sonic, all pieces they've been known to play) but I understand they've acquired so much music over the years that it would be impossible for them to fit everything into the show. And really, it just gives me more incentive to see it again.

What did they play? Well, a lot of stuff. They opening with a "Classic Arcade Medley" where they played music from Pong, Frogger, Ghouls n Ghosts, Duck Hunt, and so much more. My favorite pieces of the night were probably the Mega Man medley (which covered the intro music from Mega Man 2, the title screen theme to Mega Man 3, and Wily's Fortress from Mega Man 2) and the Street Fighter medley (which covered Guile, Ryu, and Ken's themes). OH YEAH! And a Zelda flute medley played by a cute girl dressed as Link named Laura Intravia. That shit was amazing.

Some special guests were there as well. Laura Intravia, who I mentioned before, was a special guest though she's been on Video Games Live several times prior. There was also Brentalfloss who you might know from his YouTube videos of giving classic video game themes lyrics, such as Mega Man 3 and Dr. Mario. He performed a live song to the water theme from Super Mario Bros. Also, while I have never played the games before, the composer of the original Castlevania soundtrack was there for the Castlevania piece. She apparently lives in Jersey now!

Even the pieces from games I had never played before were amazing, and there were quite a few of them. And they ended the night singing Still Alive from Portal. I loved the experience so much that I bought a t-shirt, CD, and Blu-Ray of the show. I hope to go again sometime soon, especially knowing they're working on pieces for Pokemon, Phoenix Wright, and Katamari Damacy.

Whether you're a gamer or not, look into going to Video Games Live. It's an experience like no other.

So I landed my first voice over role. What that is? I'm not exactly sure. All I know it's some video a girl is making about a character she plays in a circus freak show (she walks on broken glass and eats fire) and, after auditioning, I have been given the role of the narrator. I don't know how many other people auditioned, but it feels pretty awesome to land the role. Could this be the start of something more? I guess only time will tell.

( day 24: favorite classic gameCollapse )

I kind of neglected this meme thing for the past few days. I have an excuse though! I've been busy. What with Thanksgiving, work, friends, and Christmas shopping. But that's okay because I'm here now. YEAH!

( day 23: game you think had the best graphics or art styleCollapse )

Attention Xbox Live friends! Do you like puzzle games? Do you like artsy games? Do you like things that are cute and adorable? Then I strongly advise you to head over here and get a super secret code to get early access to the most adorable puzzle game ever made, ilomilo. You can also purchase the full game after playing the trial for a mere 800MSP and it is well worth it. Don't let the cute look fool you--this can be one challenging puzzle game that will put your mind to the test! The graphical style is also incredible and the music is very catchy and charming.

Oh, and did I mention it's fucking adorable? Go and get it now.
