February
19th So the weekend has ended already. And on the bright side means that there is 2 less days until I get to be home for a while. Is everyone excited!!?! :\

I finally got around to renting Chibi-Robo, and despite some mediocre reviews, it plays to me like a perfect little game. I'm sure everyone reading this would already know the premise, but if you're still not sure if you'll like it, I highly suggest at least renting it. Really easy to pick up and start playing, and horrendously cute. I think even if you don't really enjoy the game, you'll still love everything about it.

Derk and Chris were over last night, and we rented Mirror Mask. The link should should give you more than enough info about it, but it's essentially the next Labyrinth. Enjoyable movie, but when you compare it to Labyrinth, it just doesn't seem to have the same "fun" behind it. A little more serious, and a lot more... british? If I had any complaints, some of the CG used a lot of repetition (backgrounds and characters) and almost looks a little like... the cg from games back in the early 90s. Bad Mojo and Myst come to mind. Also, many characters seem to "mirror" (pun intended) characters directly from Labyninth. You'll see a "Hoggle" and a "Goblin Prince", minus the musical numbers. The visuals and styles in the movie make it worth seeing though, so even being overly picky I enjoyed it a lot.

Oh, I also got a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms and have been watching Chris play out a totally fictional history of China. The game is fantastically deep, and really enjoyable to watch, especially the duels. I think it's something Moik may enjoy... if it had spaceships and stuff.

Merina is sleeping :(
