This week, on LANCER PONDERS:
<lolilover> I notice alot of Japanese fiction involving kemono-mimi characters always has the main character saving an innocent animal and then the animal returns as a girl to reward him for his kindness.
<lolilover> Well there's a cat that is always wandering around in my backyard. Should I feed it in the hopes that one day a catgirl will show up at my door?

I've been playing a little F-Zero Execution Project...

<Nadir> mzxers don't make GAMES, usually
<phthalocyanine> they make experiences.
<Nadir> demos, more like
<Nadir> a glimpse into what could have been if mzx wasn't such a bore to work with
<Nadir> actually, i'm being unfair
<Nadir> i would have made mzx games if it was capable of running on more than 20 computers worldwide in 1998
<Nadir> >:D
<%Alice> functor
<%nooodl> i hear C++ has a thing called functors and they're completely different from Haskell functors...
<rorirover> the result is the most horrid thing in C++, it's basically black magic and it transforms any code you're writing into some eldritch monstrosity

Was playing rental copies of Blue Dragon and Mass Effect, but they have to go back tomorrow, so I rented Assassin's Creed as well.

A very little bit IWBTG (fighting the final boss is a pain in the butt as you may expect), I recently completed WADF in one day, and I'm helping my bro now and then with Kingdom Of Loathing.

Advance Wars: Days of Ruin
it's a lot more expressive, and the new graphics look nice. the series needed this...
bad part: a couple of the maps are poorly designed, or go way out of the difficulty curve

System Shock 2.
I'm trying to finish it on Impossible mode and with a PSI character.
Also
BioShock.
i first thought that this game was shitty, but after playing it for awhile it kinda grew on me.

Crackdown (demo) and Burnout Paradise over XBox Live with my brother. A real hoot - just wish he'd go buy the full game of Crackdown so I wouldn't have to use the demo!

Just completed Super Mario Bros. 1 at speed 1.5x in an emulator.
Now doing Mega Man 2 at speed 1.5x, which is a pain when you get to the Quickman stage. "Bweeeebweeeebweeeebweeeebweeee!"

That's why you get a Plasma... high definition TVs at larger sizes than even the largest HD CRT, and nearly comparable black levels.

Fallout and Sauerbraten (or really anything that is decent and open source).
