I wish the media would stop calling them the "baby bulls" as they don't have the two centers out of high school anymore.

So the Wii's got Romance of the Three Kingdoms 4 up for download. One more reason I can't wait to be allowed to buy one of these things (seriously, has production ramped up again yet?) Now I didn't play 4 in my youth but I gave years of it away to numbers 2 and 3 and I can tell you that if you like retro gaming and turned based strategy you should love any Romance of the Three Kingdoms game.

Grindhouse is a really fun time. I heartily recommend it to anyone who has a sense of humor. I think Tarantino's movie is more of a proper homage to grindhouse movies. Rodriguez's movie is more an homage to John Carpenter, whom I love but it's not quite super grindhouse-y. Still both are great fun and the fake movie previews are fantastic.

So have you been watching Andy Ritcher and Conan O'Brian's new show, Andy Barker PI? It's midseason-replacementrific!

In other lots of late, not so breaking news here's my score card for the serieses that have already wrapped. Just to clarify the season score is based primarily on the ability of the episodes in the season to meet or exceed expectations. So just because I scored BSG's season low doesn't mean that I don't still think that it's the best show aired on US TV, because I still do think so and it is (although Veronica Mars could reclaim that title with a strong finish to their season).

The Closer - Season 2 - A

Most of this season was done in the summer of 2006 but they did air a two-part finale in December so this isn't as belated as it seems. Anywho it's damn good TV. The cast is really quite good together and the show's focus on suspect interrogation reminds of Homicide, and that's a way good thing.

Psych - Season 1 - A

The best show that no one I know is talking about. Psych is consistantly funny and engaging.

Rome - Season 2 - A-

Rome Season 1 was a season for the ages. Possibly the tightest story arc ever told in the medium. A damn hard act to follow. But for the most part season 2 delievers a statisfying end to this fantastic series.

Battlestar Galactica - Season 3 - B

So, yeah, the begining of the season was fantastic. Turning the heroes into basically terrorists was a fantastic idea. And the end was tantalizing but there was a lot of filler the in middle there.

According to this IGN article. I wonder if Sakaguci's games will be enough for the 360 to break through into general acceptance in Japan. It doesn't seem that unreasonable, the main purpose of my old game consoles was to play Final Fantasy games.

What I love about reading Kojima is his totally sincere tone.

hmmm, you have not saved often, you are somewhat reckless!
