Blog Post 4/2/14
My new computer is being delayed by quite a bit, because the shop I was planning to get one from had nothing good for the price I'm paying, so my mum's friend is custom building one and I should have it by next week. In the meantime, I get to enjoy using a laptop that I don't want to own and has nothing installed. So that's pretty great. I reinstalled a couple of things to retain my sanity (Binding of Isaac, Skype, TF2) and one of my Steam friends gifted me The Ship recently, which definitely seems like an interesting game. I don't know a lot about the game, but my impression is that it's a game where 8 world leaders are on a ship (you playing as one of them) and you're given a target to kill. There are plenty of guards though, so it isn't just a free-for-all the whole time. If you are caught being violent you are sent to prison and kept there for a while. It's multiplayer and my friends say it's fun so I'm looking forwards to playing it. I also need to get around to finishing the Strongbad's Cool Game for Attractive People series. There are five games in total, and I've beaten the first two and I'm part way into the third. I already played the first three on WiiWare a few years ago, so I'm definitely looking forward to episodes 4 and 5.
I watched all three seasons of the Inbetweeners over the weekend, which isn't as much as it sounds because each season only has 6 25 minute episodes. If you're looking for a British sitcom to watch (which you almost definitely aren't) I'd definitely say the Inbetweeners is a good choice. I want to move on to watching something else, but I'm torn between Breaking Bad and the Walking Dead. Advice is more than welcome on that. I don't normally read much but I'm reading the Charlie Higson books, and I'm currently near the start of the second. Normally zombie apocalypse stuff is way too cheesy and generic for me, but the Charlie Higson series is actually quite unique and manages to be original while having perhaps one of the most overdone concepts, at least in recent years. I also need more movies to watch. I watched the first 5 Star Wars movies in the last couple of weeks and I plan to watch the sixth right after this, but I need more movies to watch and really have no idea what I should watch. I still haven't seen Pulp Fiction so I probably should, but otherwise I'm stumped. Suggestions on films to watch would also be appreciated.
