Australia vs. ebaypal assholes!
So ebay is looking to make payment with paypal mandatory, which is complete bullshit. Imagine a store saying they only accept their giftcards for merch.
Anyway, looks like Australia’s reserve bank might have something to say about this. f-you paypal!
Eternal Sonata
Overall an excellent game. The maps tend to tedium, but I like the combat system, and the acting in the cutscenes is top notch. No, I don’t think I’ll ever do the 2nd playthrough.
Verdict:
Rent it. Most RPGs will fall under this category simply because they often lack replay value.
I hardly knew ye.

Note to UN - don’t allow people who are against human rights on the human rights council. Also, FU sharia.
I loved Freelancer. It would make an awesome MMO that I would play at least a bit. It was already part way there. Just go the extra bit, MS!
I kinda want China to get a further black eye overshadowing their olympics… why? I dunno. But I feel they need to be brought down a notch. Getting too uppity.
White jelly beans are crap.
Flatout: Ultimate Carnage
Imagine that RC Pro-Am wasn’t fun. That’s the game in a nutshell. It’s basically a really lame driving game with floaty controls that tease you into thinking they work properly. It has a lame ‘break things’ gimmick, and it’s not even fun enough to make it worth playing to buy upgrades and new cars.
The only decent thing about it is the car damage model, which lets you screw up a car pretty nicely… it’s not a save grace tho. It’s like a fat chick with a nice watch, or something.
Verdict:
Play with mercury instead.

This is pretty damn addictive - It’s kind of a Civ-type browser game. Things take a long time to build or what have you, so you can set it and forget about it for a few hours. I approve of it.
