Well, big stuff going on today. Took off work to see my sister graduate high school.
I was listening to a podcast and they ruined the next level of Duke Nukem Forever for me.
In Defense of Duke Nukem Forever, nobody expected a masterpiece. There's been plenty of haterade going around. Is it flawed? You better believe it. Is it fun? Yes. I bought two games this week, Duke Nukem Forever obviously, and Deathsmiles.
Deathsmiles is a loli shooter. An old fashioned shooter where you shoot left or right. Think asteroids. Is it a great game? Not particularly. It's short, you can beat in in an hour. Is it challenging? Sort of. Yes the hard levels are hard but you can soldier on. So where's the challenge? Try beating the game without continuing.
More challenge? Do it with all four characters. 
The point I'm trying to make is, we play games to have fun. No other reason. Sure, we enjoy looking at pretty graphics and hitting the guy next to you with an rpg. But any game that's fun is doing it's job. There shouldn't be any discouragement from playing a game for any other reason than the game sucks at being fun. And as it pains me to say this, this is a game that sucks at being fun.
In other news, I'm trying to get myself a propass for NYCC. I have had professional comics writing experience. I am making my own comics. But I don't know what to put under company.
Also, what happened to the fall edition of Big Apple Comic Con? Is it summer only now? It completely disappeared off the wizard site.
