Folk Music Friday #2


Posted on 03/08/2013 at 12:24 PM | Filed Under Blogs

I'm going to comment twice, once on the first half, then the second when I get done finding the songs for my own blog;

"Hangman" - Bit too country for my tastes, but to each their own

"Mbube" - This was a nice, relaxing song, and I love hearing other cultures' music; traditional non-folk African music can be hit or miss with me, but this one was a good tune. I'd like to hear her more jazzed up stuff as well ... what? I have American tastes. lol

"500 Miles" - Another nice and easy song I enjoyed. Felt a bit country as well, but it was just the right mix of country twang and folky to get me to like it; soothing.

"Wagoner's Land" - Soothing, yet rebellious in its lyrics. And as a poor man myself, I appreciate her sentiment. Laughing Believe it or not, I learned of Joan Baez through the Judas Priest cover of "Diamonds and Rust," which I believe is about her break-up with Bob Dylan. Yes, you read that right, Judas Priest did a cover of her song on their Sin After Sin album. lol

"Chelsea Morning" - I liked it, but the lyrics are a bit saccharine and cheesy. Is that why you don't care for it, or you just don't like her sound in general? The guitar and vocal melodies are actually reminescent of some of the slower, acoustic 90s songs I've heard, probably inspired by her in some way, so maybe that's its appeal to me.

"Someday Soon" - The steel guitar start had me worried this might get a little too country for me as well, but then the vocals kicked in, and I must say, I like her voice. Actually, might be my favorite song so far, so I'm not sure if I'll share your disposition towards her if I find more. lol

I'll be back for the second half.

Friday Favourites - Contra: Hard Corps (GEN)

Any game with a half-wolf, half-robot with cannon for an arm has my vote.

Maybe we should call ourselves Pixlbits?

The Progression of Gaming: Is There A Ceiling?

I think at this point, there can still be new game ideas, but graphically, the leaps won't be as big, especially not out of the launch gate.

However, I think after a while, that obsession with Virtual Reality the 90s had will come back, and having technology beyond vector graphics, may become the next logical step.

And it will make the idea of another Manhunt reeeeaaaally creepy.

DLC = Damn Late Content


Posted on 03/08/2013 at 09:43 AM | Filed Under Blogs

Happy early birthday, for one, second, I skipped this generation, and while I look forward to being able to download demos and such to play if I adopt something next gen, I'm still not sure I'm on board with the idea as a whole; I will say this: as long as it's not something that I feel should have been in the original physical copy when I paid my $60, I don't mind late DLC. That's just an optional way to add some longevity to the game to me.

I think the reason people are bothered by Day 1 DLC is cause it makes it seem like that DLC should have just been in their game to start with, before DLC costs; obviously it's a case-by-case basis whether that's true or not (and if it's free DLC, I certainly wouldn't care, assuming I had enough Hard Drive space), but that's how I might feel.

Kindle Fire Woes

That stinks, I wonder if my ex's Kindle ever had the same issues.

Heads up on any Xbox 360 Bundle package?? Something that you may not know??

I'd be upset, but at the same time if it's at a good price for what it is, I wouldn't mind getting it now that I know.

Friday Funday!

Never was huge into RTS, but those trailers look awesome! Be cool if they made a Starcraft movie, looks like something I'd watch.

I love Wreck it Ralph, hope your fiance does too.

GLaD 7: Castlevania Order of Ecclesia, Missing Item Rage Quit

I would have finished it by now if not for said irksome fetch quests I didn't realize were mandatory; your shame means nothing to me! lol

I will finish it, but I'll have to be in the mood to fetch quest before I do. Actually, I might pick up Dawn of Sorrow before I get in that mood so uh ... this may take a while.

I haven't played these, but you know how I feel about JRPGs, so you know I'm in no way knocking the series by saying that, it's probably awesome; though it sounds like PSII was the least worthy entry.

Alys does sound like a cool character, all punk rock and hilarious.

It is worth a purchase overall, especially if you enjoyed it, just be sure to rescue those pesky villagers and check GameFAQs for stuff you may have missed
