War Were Declared.

It may have just been friendly banter Whitey, but I see through your little ruse!  You're challenging me to keep up with you!  Well I got news for you!!!!!!

Eh, I'll do what I can.

Anyways, today wasn't really anything new, or really insightful.  I woke up at 7:30 AM, and ended up being able to sleep in.  I had a weird dream as I slept for another couple hours.  It wasn't really coherent, or at least the parts I remember aren't, but I remember how I felt.  I dreamed that I lived in a house that was essentially a copy of my grandparent's house here in town.  But this house had an entity inside it, a vengeful spirit hell-bent on making my life miserable.  I remember feeling claws on my arm, and I ran into the street screaming like a banshee.  I was suddenly accosted by the police, and I could tell by their eyes that they assumed I was batshit crazy.  


Upon entering my house, nothing greeted them.  No shade, no spirit, no ill will.  I awoke after demanding my house show them what was really going on.  I felt a little woozy, and came to notice three curious scratches on my right arm.  Creepy?  Perhaps. I have a habit of developing odd nicks and scratches during the night. 


Nothing really eventful happened.  I spent my morning doing laundry and playing Castlevania.  Made myself some scrambled eggs and toast, with a little cherry juice.  Hung out later with some friends: Ryan, Mike, and Whitey.  Had fun!  I introduced them to a nifty and rather annoying site, www.akinator.com.  It's a site that basically plays something like 20 Questions with you.  You think of a character or person, anybody, and after some questions, the Genie will reveal to you who you were thinking of.  The charm definitely lies within the fact it determines your EXACT character with seemingly generic questions.


The first time I toyed with the site, I assumed it was a rather limited scope of information, so I chose someone I thought was too obscure for this Djinn to figure out.  So, I answered my questions as best I could and was completely caught off guard when it said: "I think of....Akihiko Sanada (Persona 3)"  No fucking way, right?  Nope, I kept trying and trying, it got every single person right before it gave up. If the Genie fails to guess your person three times, it concedes victory to you.  I thought I had it one time, I attempted to dupe it by using a character that was essentially the same as another, but wasn't completely.  First time he said it was some girl from an anime I didn't know of.  Second, it got the character that wasn't quite right (Elizabeth from Persona 3).  But that frickin' third time, it pulled out Margaret from Persona 4.  Stupid thing.  So far I've only been able to stump Akinator one time, by choosing the NDN Bullet from Roger Rabbit.  It freaked me out though, because it guess that I was thinking of the Singing Sword from Roger Rabbit.

On a lighter note, I managed to get the Healing Mail I was looking for on Castlevania.  I scored it while farming Ch 11 Normal with a German guy and a brit.  I have all rare armors in my possession now, so it's satisfying.  I'm still playing Mortal Kombat like a fiend. MK was really my first fighting game ever.  I used to play it with my Dad and Uncle on ye olde Super Nintendo.  So, for me, this is a radical step forward from the Soul Calibur style Mortal Kombats being pumped out.  Right now I'm working with Reptile as my main and Sektor as my secondary.  I use them both in Tag teams. 


I've really not much else to say right now.  I'm excited for VGL and E3.  I'm still hoping really bad that we get whiff of a new Castlevania.  I'm itching for another 2.5 D Castlevania, one that has fully rendered 3D enemies, bosses and Belmont. OK, you know what, fine, here's my dream Castlevania.  A game released on a triple platform spread, either via disc or download.  It'd look like Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles: 3D enemies, bosses, and a Belmont on a 2D plane.  Full 3D backgrounds, the works.  But, unlike DXC, this one would be a Metroidvania.  Not that I don't enjoy a good Classicvania, but I'm just more into the Metroidvanias.  


Alright, besides my ludicrously sexual comments that no one wants to hear, I'm done here for real. 


Remember, it's all part of the plan.
