Released two years ago by renowned game developer BioWare I put off picking up a copy. Turned off by comparisons to Star Wars: Knight of the Old Republic (an amazing game) and the “been there done that mentality” I’ve finally cracked. The funny part is I didn’t wake up one morning with a deep desire to play a sci-fi RPG. It was the commercial blitz promoting the release of Mass Effect 2.
What is SXSW?
South by Southwest (SXSW) is a set of interactive, film, and music festivals and conferences that take place every spring in Austin, Texas. SXSW first began in 1987 and is centered on the downtown Austin Convention Center. Each of the three parts runs relatively independently, with different start and end dates.
Why Am I Writing About This?
Cause I spent the afternoon booking my trip to SXSW. Now before you get excited I should mention I’m not going for the film or music portion. I’m going for the geeky interactive stuff. YAY ME!
Purchased two years ago I’ve finally got around to exploring the extremely immersive world of Rapture. BioShock is one part The Island of Dr. Moreau, two parts Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and a dash of art deco design. After spending a few hours with the game I can say that all the buzz regarding the moral decisions in the game seem like silly marketing / fanboy hype.
Spent the afternoon shopping when I came across a pair of sunglasses I couldn’t resist. The Oliver Peoples Strummer is a classic aviator design crafted with lightweight, hypo-allergenic titanium.
Filled with joy and a tinge of sadness over the loss of my favorite Blinde shades I began searching for the discontinued Lickety Lips in black. Miraculously I found a pair on eBay. All is right in the world.
I’ve begun watching reruns of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations on Netflix and realized I have a deep respect and fondness for cynical New Yorkers. From my This explains my love for the main character in Californication, Hank Moody.
About Anthony Bourdain
Bourdain gained immediate popularity from his 2000 New York Times bestselling book Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly. The book is a witty and rambunctious exposé of the hidden and darker side of the culinary world, and is a memoir of Bourdain’s professional life as well.
Bourdain subsequently wrote two more New York Times bestselling nonfiction books: A Cook’s Tour (2001), an exotic account of his food and travel exploits across the world, written in conjunction with his first television series; and The Nasty Bits (2006), another collection of exotic, provocative, and humorous anecdotes and essays mainly centered around food. — Wikipedia
After two+ years of marathon dating I’ve met someone that makes the prospect of monogamy attractive. With a strange vibe, quick wit and beautiful smile Roxy has made an honest man out of me.
The replacement power supply I ordered online was delivered today and after ten minutes of surgery my XBOX LIVES! Who would have thought a power surge almost claimed a good portion of my twenties. Jeez that sounds pathetic. I need to get a new hobby that sounds cooler. Perhaps demolition derby driver or professional assassin.
