Feb. 26th, 2012 11:42 pmHello all.
I finished the storyline in Saints Row 2. That's the main news in my life at the moment. Also I have a can of sour cream and onion Pringles.
( Spoilers up to the end of the Saints Row 2 storyline, I can't tell if this will be better if you know anything about Saints Row 2 or not )
Also, it turns out that Shaundi - the main and pretty much only female secondary character - is voiced by Eliza Dushku. That makes two characters in the past few months who I've sort of loved, partly because of their voices, who turned out to be voiced and performed by Faith from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Eliza Dushku. I don't know what your plan is, but it won't work! It's kind of nice though, video game character voices. Like finding out that Johnny Gat from Saints Row 2 is voiced by Daniel Dae Kim. And the main character in The Darkness is played by Miguel Alvarez from Oz. Happy days.
Anyway. Skyrim is still ongoing. I LOVE SKYRIM. And I recently found Blackreach, which has officially taken the title of most beautiful place in the game, for me. More beautiful even than Markarth. Where I did finally manage to get a house. But it's not terribly feasible for my character to just up and move underground, and to a place filled with monsters. So I have to sort of be content with having seen Blackreach, and perhaps going back to visit sometimes.
Also, I went to see Safe House. The first film I've been to see at the cinema for a couple of months, at least. But I've been looking forward to it since December, so I wanted to go. I really enjoyed it. It wasn't quite the storyline I was expecting from having read about the film, and I didn't find it particularly slashy, but I thought it was really really good. The main problem with it was that - being an action thriller - they shot it in sort of a grainy way, and everyone did a lot of muttering, so I wasn't always entirely sure what was going on. I sort of want to see it again just to try and fill in some gaps in things I didn't understand, and still don't. But perhaps that was the masterplan of the people making it. ::shakes fist:: Hollywood!
Oh, and, they didn't put on one of those "You are stealing films, STOP STEALING FILMS" adverts up before the film came on. But they did put on one of those annoying slow motion "Go to the cinema for the EXPERIENCE ads", and then flashed up the rules about not recording films TWICE. Way to be massively irritating, you guys.
