Tet and Met















This used to be a wifi blog once. Since then, AC has died, Mario Kart's been flooded with snakers, and Tony Hawk never amounted to anything. Now, 2 new guys arrive with a lust for wireless.

Metroid Prime Hunters and Tetris DS are the heaviest of the WFC hitters, Metroid being the new king of wifi. When you get tired of that, pop in Tetris and let your brain get comfortably numb with 3 friends. Don't worry, they aren't (official) drugs, but this dual concoction can be lethal in large doses...Increase the dosage.

Leave your codes for Met and Tet at Infendo, post your meet up times here.

Infendo Radio Impressions

Infendo Radio finally went down yesterday. As the picture indicates, only Blake and Scott (from MyExtraLife.com) were actually on the show, the rest of us were too busy to attend. In case you missed it, they talked about many goings on in gaming, such as the recent GDC and whatnot.

I found it to very interesting, actually. I liked the mix of Blake's passion for Nintendo and Scott's radio expertise/Nintendo appreciation. It was definitely rough, i thought. Definitely a pilot show, but the content was good. Blake's nerves got the best of him alot of the time, which was my favorite part. There were times when he'd stammer 4 times before he'd get a word out, which i found hilarious. It was a funny, charming nervousness.

Once it hits its stride and has the 3 writers per cast, it'll be more fleshed out. Plus the content will get better. I hope i can join it soon. I've been incredibly limited in my free time and my PC isn't exactly fit to run whatever program they used on the podcast.

If any of the 2 ppl that stop by listened to it, what'd you think? Be specific, por favor.

Blogger's Gay

Infendo is plagued with little news and Blogger's not helping. What we try to post, we can't attach a picture to. What's up with the upload pic tool, damn you?! Posts need pictures! Sons need fathers! Hulk smash!

Lemme test it out.


I guess it was only Infendo.

Playlist

I can't think of anything else to post, but i want to kick-start this blog's engine. If anyone stops by, tell me what's in your DVD tray, in your game machine, on your MP3 player, radio dial, and your favorite channels. Feel free to throw in whatever other media you want. [Talk about a gay blog post.]

Ooh! My turn, my turn!

Micro
Drill Dozer. This one has the mic right now.

DS
Age of Empires on the backburner. Metroid Prime Hunters is the next in line.

GameCube
Tales of Symphonia on the backburner. Cube's going on ice after this.

PS2 (at the Best Buy on 86th)
Fight Night Round 3. Taking on all gangstas.


Media Player
Omar Rodriguez's self-titled Dutch album was something i was listening, dancing, and plucking along to until a week ago. Then i got some Mars Volta B-sides i'd never heard, including Frances the Mute, The Bible and the Breathalyzer, Ambuletz, and A Plague Upon Your Hissing, all taken from a radio-only LP. They're all great, the best of which being 15-minute Frances the Mute, which i am currently destroying on the frets (that's a good thing).

iPod
Since iTunes doesn't work on my PC, i'm still stuck with Volta's Scabdates as my go-to album. Not that it's bad by any means, but a brotha gets tired. I alternate between that and Omar's A Manual Dexterity: Volume 1.

I'm trying to get my hands on Roger Waters' Ça Ira, but that thing's like 100+ minutes long total. I love the length, but it would take a lot of time ripping and checking every damn track for errors on iTunes.

Then there's his best friend and his new solo album, David Gilmour's On An Island. I heard the first single from it last week and it punched me in the gut it was so good. Most important of all, it doesn't sound like post-Waters Floyd. It released on the 6th - that's yesterday or today depending how you look at it - meaning i have to buy it ASAP.


TV
I mainly watch indie films, classic films and docs, sprinkle in some tennis tournaments, and top it off with Adult Swim.


Radio
David Lee Roth sucks big wrinkly balls. If you're from New York or somewhere else where Diamond Dave replaced Howard, you know what i'm talking about. On the flip side, JV & Elvis have the best show on ex-Kroq Free FM. It sucks that their show got cut down an hour, cause they truly are the new Stern show of FM radio. Poor bastards.


Now you go.

Cue the music...Rollin's back

[To whomever this may concern,]

Alright, the "mutiny" is officially on ice. I can't speak about it in any sorta detail, but i can assure you that the updates - like all the posts from those guys in February - will come back soon enough. There've been a few hangups that them fellas have come across, and once they have everything in order you will be the first they cryptically inform. The mutiny itself will happen elsewhere. You will find out when they tell you.

Back to business.

[When you see the sub-header "Engage Inform Enfold", that's your indicator that the mutiny is underway again.]


What was it that i did here again?
