The Con-trasing games of 2005

Submitted by bonesquad on Mon, 2006-01-23 18:56

Our good pal Nick (you know, that guy who started Nbrid but sold the rights to Conn for a toolbox of M&Ms...) has put up his "Top Games of 2005". Makes IGN's list look like crap. What can I say, I just like the Verdana font more than Tahoma.

Here's a snipit: "Genres continue to expand and I find it very hard to differentiate action, adventure, and platforming games. So basically I am putting games in the categories that they stand out the most."

Wow, I bet you're just dieing to go read it now! But before you go, a word of warning.

First, I hate to spoil this, but the pussy that Nick is (and I don't mean that in the British sense) he didn't have the fortitude to pick just one best DS game. Kind of a let down seeing how much he let's that device based on 1996 technology rule his life.

Second, the following line has been changed:

"Sure, strafing can be fun, but aiming at the same time is just more frustration than I need."

Originally it said:

"Sure, strafing can be fun, but aiming at the same time is just more frustration that I need."

Again, he let his masochist personality show, but then pussied out and changed the wording (funny how a ONE letter difference can hide the true meaning of that sentance.)

Okay. Go. Go read it already before you tire of reading hardcore emo blogs:

I just don't have anything to say recently. Today was a total loss, but it's not important. Not much on my mind to speak of, but that's how it is. I've just been letting everything happen without me. I can't be bothered with anything recently.

I haven't been up to anything , not that it matters. Basically nothing seems important, but I guess it doesn't bother me. Not much on my mind to speak of. Today was a loss, but maybe tomorrow.

I've just been letting everything happen without me lately, but oh well. I haven't been up to much these days. Today was a complete loss. Shrug. More or less nothing seems important, but such is life.

As professionals we have to get over our resistance to being observed and evaluated. My actual teaching and the resulting student assessments of their learning are the means by which I want to be judged.

I feel like a complete blank. Eh. I haven't gotten anything done these days. More or less nothing seems worth bothering with. Not much on my mind lately. Shrug.

As someone who does see stagflation lite on the horizon, perhaps even the near-term horizon, i would like to know why greenspan thinks it "doesn't" seem that we are entering a period of stagflation.

I've more or less been doing nothing to speak of. I just don't have much to say these days, not that it matters. Basically not much noteworthy going on worth mentioning. So it goes.

Currently the website is just a convenient place to post and collaborate on models used in fundamental equity research. Right now you can find versions of a LVLT model I am developing in the "Project" folder of that website.

I can't be bothered with anything. Pretty much nothing seems worth bothering with, but I don't care. I just don't have anything to say right now. Not much on my mind these days, but I guess it doesn't bother me. My life's been really bland these days, but whatever.

I think pop music, rock in particular, is way more about sex than classical music is. Much more directly, anyway. So it doesn't bother me there.

More buyers required means a lower price will have to be charged.

I've just been letting everything pass me by , but oh well. What can I say? I've just been hanging out doing nothing, but eh. Basically not much notable going on. My life's been completely dull these days. Not much on my mind lately, but pfft.
