So wow...I'm updating!
Jan. 18th, 2009 06:09 pmSo I'm going to make a stab at updating regularly again. This is mostly so the feed will go to my Facebook.
I just watched the Pilot for the new Showtime series, "United States of Tara" about a woman with Dissociative Identity Disorder and four distinct personalities; an average mom, a teenager, a housewife, and a biker dude. (That's right, biker DUDE, not biker chick. Meaning the personality is male.) It was very well put together. Of course it helped that Steven Spielberg and the woman who wrote "Juno" are paired up for it. I look forward to seeing where it goes.
I also just got a PS3 and the new game "Mirror's Edge". I just finished beating it. It was a little short for my tastes, but the game play was really cool. I enjoyed the story and the music. The cut scenes were animated like a cartoon. On one hand I liked it cause it was different, but on the other hand I thought they could have fully CG'ed the scenes. I mean this is the PS3, right? If you're going to make a game for this system then utilize all the system can do. It was especially disappointing when considering how short the game was. Since it was so short, why not make up for it with kick-ass cut scenes?
Still, the game was good and I look forward to seeing the sequel. The game is resolved at the end, but there is room for the story to go on.
