 Posted by Bob on May 21, 2004: Hey everyone. I like this comic. I like the idea of Steve immediately tinkering with the machine the minute it is up and running. That's why he pops up in that one panel. (Too lazy to look it up. The file is sitting on my desktop, no less.) He was behind the machine, you see.
So, Amanda asked me to draw Mystique. And I did. Just flat inks-I don't know if I'll ever get around to coloring it. There's some anatomy problems and stuff, but I don't really care...I like how it turned out for once. I'm out of school for the summer as of today, so hopefully I'll be able to get some more finished art to show off besides this comic and the occasional guest strip. Only time will tell.
I picked up Ninja Gaiden as soon as I could, but never really got far in it, due to the difficulty. I didn't feel like dealing with that crap. So, it sat in my shelves for quite a while, Ryu's anticipation for action ever growing. My anticipation for ridiculously hard gameplay was not ready to be met for a while...Until this week. I've been playing the hell out of the game, and I've gotten much much better. The boss of level seven is supposed to be one of the hardest in the game. Not only did I beat her on my first try, I only got hit twice. I am flying through the game now. It isn't that it is terribly hard, it just has a wicked learning curve. That, and I was going about things all wrong. In fighting games, I tend to pick big bruisers like Zangief or Sagat and just go right at you without even trying to block. Well, in Ninja Gaiden, if you do that, you will die. There is no way around it. Make friends with the left trigger-You will need it. Still, it's a good game that gets a very high recommendation from this guy.
Anyone want a stuffed disease? Here's your chance. Too bad there's not a herpes one. Imagine the fun you can have when you tell people "Yeah, I gave little Sally herpes for Christmas." Ahhhh, good times.
Holy crap, don't mess with Italian cops. Why? Cause they've got god damn supercars! You just know someone is gonna try to outrun that thing too. And the cop will laugh and just smash his stupid ass into the pavement and no one will be upset, cause why cries when an idiot dies? Not me, I can tell you that much! Although personally, I think a top mounted machine gun turret would be more effective. Cause who's gonna do something bad when you've got a giant machine gun pointed at you?
Go here and read Wingfan's post. Why? Cause it's new news on GTA4:San Andreas. Turns out it's gonna be a real actual sequel, and not the half-assed expansion pack Vice City turned out to be. I don't get why people love that game as much as they do. GTA3 was better. No doubt about it. VC included some new things: Crappy new missions, a terrible soundtrack, useless motorcycles, a bad story, degraded graphics...the game was worse in just about every way than GTA3, yet Vice City does better? I don't get it. Anyway, some good new news on GTA4. Make sure you check the link.
All right, I think that's all I've got in the tank this week. Back in seven. End transmission!
