Tomorrow
For JRPG fans, this is it. The Big One.

Slamming ‘Em Down
A couple of articles done, less to worry about, must squeeze in more White Knight Chronicle time before the Tuesday avalanche of too many good games to play.
Hurray For Weekends
I’m still doing the same old thing.
The Usual
Same old, same old.
Too Much Stuff
Got a ton of articles to write for C&G this month. This is a good thing.
Still At It
Yup, games, articles.
The Neverending Game
Okay, White Knight Chronicles does have an ending. At least the single-player game. But that online component… man, it’s like World of Warcraft, except you don’t pay a subscription…
Back The Grind
Gaming, writing.
And The Crowd Goes Wild
Couple of quick pictures taken down at good ol’ Bloor just a short while after insanity broke out. I was minding my own business when screaming, in the streets, honking horns, and finally, yes, fireworks, started breaking out. A quick walk down to Bloor and Bathurst revealed all manner of high-fiving going on, and guys running about with the Canadian flag attached to hockey sticks.
Oh well, it was a good run. 14 gold medals, and a win in hockey against the USA. I guess we’re entitled to go a little nuts once in a while.
And after living away from Canada for so many years, I have to admit, these shows of patriotism and genuine love and pride for the country actually mean something to me now. Knowing what it’s like in other nations, I don’t take this for granted any more.
And Done
Seen all the endings, got the platinum. The game is far from perfect, but this is one of the most impressive games I have seen in years. A lot of people are going to hate this game and hate it passionately, but I’m not one of them.
