cyrano: (Uncle Scar)
The game went very well. I've decided that my vampire was a doctor in the west after the Civil War--possibly San Francisco or Kansas City--and does disturbing artwork using the human body as a medium.
I even got to say "You're a daisy if you do."
The playlist is currently nearly three hours long.

Today we went to CostCo and of course I ended up with shit I didn't need.
The prize SIDN was a seven DVD box set entitled "Controversial Classics:7 Groundbreaking Movies That Made a Difference".
Advise and Consent, Bad Day at Black Rock, Blackboard Jungle, the Americanization of Emily, a Face in the Crowd, I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang and Fury.
According to the packaging, upon its release in 2005 none of these titles had been available on DVD before.
I'm an artsy farsty sucker for this crap, and for $5 a title, I will buy that and take it home.
cyrano: (Zik Zak)
The other thing we found at CostCo was the Indiana Jones Lego game, which we'd been looking forward to. So that came with us as well.
We played through the first half of 'Raiders' on dual-play mode, and then Tersa took over and finished the first movie. And it was a lot of fun.
But.
Maybe I was spoiled by the Star Wars games, but this games feels... a little sloppy, like it was rushed into production in order to catch the buzz from the fourth movie. Game play isn't quite as satisfying, and the code seems a little buggy. The artefacting is disturbing as well. However, it's the same twisted and immature humor and sensibility, and it's Indiana Jones. I think we're getting our money's worth.
