A tale of swords and souls, eternally retold...

[demiurgent]

There is only one video game that truly obsesses me. I mean, obsesses.







This game has consumed me since the first day rabbi_thor and I found its first incarnation -- Soul Edge -- in a small arcade connected to a billiards parlor off the Ithaca Commons in 1995. I have owned every console version of every sequel since then. There are now three new versions, all slightly different, for the three major consoles.

I have the Gamecube version. Once I've finished taking it to school, I will play the PS2 version. And then, of course, the XBox version. It is my destiny.

Welcome back to the stage of history....

(There is no better stress relief than beating the living Hell out of Kilik. It's as simple as that.)

There is a sega dreamcast in my future, for the sole purpose of playing the first release of that game. I had thought that I'd need a gamecube to play the sequel at home, but since it'll be out on xBox and PS2 I'll just get one of them at some time.

Of course, I'll need to wait a little while. I don't think it would be smiled upon to well at the casa after my NES splurge. I still need to find a good controller though. I might have to go the extreme of re-wiring one of those new fangled xBox or PS2 jobbies.

Oh yeah, your pics are blotto mate.

*sigh* If only my loins could afford the gaming consoles.....

This is the only problem with going back to school...I have to remember how to not spend money.

Still, I believe the quote is...

"Hruh! HRUH! HRRRAAAUUUUUGGGHHHH!!"

Ah, but these are dealable.
