Mass Effect 2 Review

Posted by Sensazin . Filed under Musings, Video Games | No Comments

Long time no post! I did a review for leftmousebutton.net, so I figured might as well put it up here.
The first Mass Effect was a fantastic game. The game delivered a cinematic play experience while allowing player choice in a way that hadn’t been done before.  Add to that workable (but not great) shooter controls, [...]

Paragon, Chapter the Third

Posted by Sensazin . Filed under Writing | No Comments

I’m going to preface this by telling you all how much I hate this chapter and how much I hated writing it. I think it’s terrible, pointless exposition and if this book ever gets published it is not going to be the first thing I revisit, it’s going to be the first thing I cut [...]

Paragon, Chapter the Second

Chapter Two – In Which Our Hero Recovers
Months pass after that incident languidly, slipping along at snail’s pace. I sit around my office, leaning back in my chair with my feet kicked up on the desk while cigarette smoke from the ashtray sinuously dances upwards and pools in the ceiling. The desk is remarkably clean, [...]

Paragon, Chapter the First

Chapter the First – In Which a Paragon Falls Short
It’s a cold, rainy night, as stereotypical as they get I suppose. The constant drumming of the rain as it bounces off my hat drones loud and hard on my mind, on my soul. I stalk down the streets silently, pulling my trenchcoat tighter around me [...]

Broadcasting!

I’m just posting to keep shit up to date I guess and try to get in the writing habit again. Need to be constantly thinking of things to write about. To that end, I will be always carrying around a small notebook and pen so I can jot down shit that comes to mind. Please [...]

Pants spider.

Posted by Sensazin . Filed under Musings | No Comments

So, I’m getting ready to put on pants for work and I toss them onto the bed. I look away for a second, and then what do I see when I look back? A fucking spider, crawling out of my pants. It then disappears under my pillow. We’ve essentially gone from bad to worse, and [...]

Vests are stupid.

Posted by Sensazin . Filed under Rants | No Comments

One of my more random rants, came after a microfleece vest I apparently own was found in a box during my mother’s impending move. I didn’t understand the vest when she gave it to me a couple days ago and I understand it even less on a slightly cold day like today. Here are itemized [...]

The Beatles: Rock Band Review

Posted by Sensazin . Filed under Musings, Video Games | No Comments

The Beatles: Rock Band (B:RB) is the ultimate music gaming experience that shows exactly why Harmonix is the only music gaming company anyone who isn’t retarded gives a shit about. Although the core gameplay is largely unchanged, the immense amount of love and respect that went into making this game is evident from the moment [...]

Kinda cool…

Posted by Sensazin . Filed under Musings | No Comments

So this is a wordle. It’s kind of cool but I think it’s just doing my most recent posts according to rss feed, otherwise I’m pretty sure “fuck” and it’s variants would be the biggest.

Late to the Party: The Force Unleashed

Posted by Sensazin . Filed under Musings, Rants, Video Games | 4 Comments

I got The Force Unleashed a while back. Like maybe a week or two before I got Batman. Maybe playing a good game has heightened my awareness of the shittiness of TFU, but I found the game to be the worst kind of bad: so close and yet so, so goddamned far. TFU is great [...]
