Finally got my copy of Ex Hex - Rips.
Love Mary Timony's guitars, and vocals.
Its like Debbie Harry and Johnny Thunders made a record just for me.
12 tracks, and under 35 mins.  No fuss.

Neither one of us has downed Olmec yet.  She's been closer than I have to doing so.  We also have been going the purist route.  Haven't read really anything on the game.  The only thing we haven't discovered on our own was the way to use the kali sacrifice tables for fun and profit.  Other than that, the black market, the haunted house, on and on, we have been finding on our own.  The style of items used and need in combination, the love of the shotgun etc., we 'grew into'.

Absolutely love the game.  Some people probably garden together, we Spelunky.

Saw a bunch of buses today with an advert on it stating 'most teens don't use drugs, JOIN the majority.'

I promptly began listening to the Circle Jerks.  Moral Majority.

I've been playing Spelunky quite a lot recently with my wife. We play both the original and the HD remake that's available on Steam.

Although I wish the game had Steam Cloud support.

It's a top game!

Do you play side by side on two games, or co-op?  My girlfriend and I do the same thing, not co-op, we are much to competitive at the game with each other.  Actually, we have never thought about playing co-op.. hehehhehehe.

When we feel generous we talk to each other about the daily as we play.  When we are feeling bitey, we clamp jaw, and go for the high score.  Dailies are a blast for us.

my opinion about scorsese: He's like the greatest cinema fan in the world, and he loves to talk about cinema, and he always tries to make grandiose movies, but his movies are so-so...

Thats how'd I describe Tarantino, too.  Heheheheh.

Heyo lessmilk.  I just went and played all 4 games, and I do believe my favorite was jump the squares.  It felt very good, very smooth, and I really liked that upon dying if you knicked the far edge you learned to jump a slight bit later, and the opposite if it held true.  That sort of interaction between the game and the player, the kind where you feel like you are learning and mastering, is a beautiful thing.  In a sense, a spiritual demake of MeatBoy.

@8points: I had a year in college before I dropped out, and we learned C++.  The following class, the curriculum ended C++ and everything went to Java.  When after many years I got the bug to start programming again and make something, I jumped to AS3.0.  Why??  I wish I could say.  Prolly really, there was just tons of info on the web, and it was low low low cost.  I read about everything I could, and found GM, and MMF2, and a million other dev tools.  I also didn't really want to jump back into C++, yet.  Or C#, yet.  In my experience I find GM, and MMF2 to be cumbersome.  I just want to open notepad++ and bang out classes.  I haven't made anything 'new' yet.  Just making games I have played, arcade types.  HTML5 is something I think would be great to learn.  I haven't even looked at it yet.  And now the point of all this long winded verbage, I grabbed coronaSDK I think last April (another of the many dev tools I have found), started using it this past November, and found it to be incredibly easy to use.  And I get to whip out notepad++ and bang out classes.  There are plenty of libraries.  It uses Lua.  Lua is like easy sauce, I am by no means where I would like to be with the language, yet, but holy cow is Lua nice.

Dark levels in Spelunky aren't fun anymore, I just want to kill Olmec already D:

I hear ya.  Pack Mule'n a torch and a shotgun isn't always a good time.

Ooh, I was interested in Tiny Barbarian. 
Sadly missed the chance to pick up Don't Starve in the last steam sale.  Somehow I spaced on that day.

Put in near 20 hours on Spelunky these last two weeks.  Totally didn't expect that.  And yup.  No Olmec downing yet.  Thems temples be shrines to insta-death!  I am however finally using a controller to play it.

Other than that I have been plugging a session or two a week playing Ni No Kuni, and right now finally got the fast travel spell.  I think I am about 25hrs in.

Happy New Year.

I think I am going to dig out the full runs of the Exterminators and Loveless.  Same'ish era for Veritgo, but those two series are pretty good.  Exterminators is sorta a Ghostbusters with bugs and way not PG-13.  And Loveless is Azzarello and Frusin (super best arts) doing a western setting red dead era piece, civil war and stuff had happened.

Awesome on the cricket!

I am playing a drinking game with some Rogue Legacy.  Every time you die take a drink.  Pretty blotto'd.

oh yeah, japan's tragedy is one of the shittiest most boring films of all time. i've never seen so many people walk out of a film and i went to see wild wild west. if you are the nerd film festival type, and love japan because they made anime and mario, please restrain yourself.

I used to work at a movie theater, and we would take bets on how many people would walk out of bad movies.

The most was during The Happening -- during one screening, everyone in the theater walked out of the damn thing.

All this is so awesome.  I've never seen The Happening (don't really want too).  The last movie I saw by M. Night was The Village.  But more importantly the walking out of stuff..

I was reading yesterday about Henry Matisse and how crowds back then who used to go to art galleries, plays, music shows etc. would walk out en masse if they were disgusted or didn't like what was being offered in the arts.  And the example for Matisse was a portrait of his wife that was just super colored!!  It looks so wild, but since it wasn't 'realistic' the crowds wouldn't except it.  (It was Woman with Hat, 1905)

I watched Europa Report last night.  I enjoyed it.  Mostly the art was the part I dug.  Who doesn't want to look at Jupiter from one of its moons??  And my favorite scene... the landing of the pod.  Man, so Xevious!!  And the lighting/shadows were great during that scene.
Forgiving some of its moments, its one of those movies that seems to resonate better after viewing it as a whole.

Tokyo Drifter.  Now that, I have to see.  Looks visually awesome.  Bet, Frank Miller digs it.
