TS4 Official Gameplay Walkthrough Trailer

I must admit I'm being too kind to SimGuru Ryan. There's no way his thoughts would be that complex. I'm sure boobies are the only thing on his mind since the demo fiasco.

Anyway, the gameplay demo you been asking for is here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uN2ue9y7_2M

Well it's a recycle demo from E3 that they showed to the press last month. Enjoy and try not to barf! No the game might not make you barf, but those two doucherags might. By the way whats their fascination with the dictator dude from North Korea?????

Do they know this man starves and torture people in his country? Not to mention he's freaking insane! STOP with the jokes! It's not funny! It's tasteless and he's a freaking psycho! Grow the f*** up Gurus! 

Now let's get back to the game at hand! For more thoughts, continue reading after the jump!

Roxie is almost in the clear (and a small update on me)

I been meaning to post an update on Roxie and such. She's doing fantastic so far. She's ahead of schedule healing wise and is walking normally again. She even back roaming the house and barking at people when they come in the door. The only thing she isn't allowed to do now is running, jumping, and going up stairs. Of course she's running around a little and jumps to greet people at times as she is a dog, but she just can't overdo it.

We go back in 4 weeks instead of the usual 6, because she's ahead of what they expected. This appointment will probably be the final one if nothing goes wrong between now and then. She doesn't have anymore legs or knees to fracture, so no more ACL surgeries at least! YAY! Well that's what Dr. Allen said. lol

We're also allowed to take her to the groomers, which is a relief. She has way too much hair right now. She looks like a cute little teddy bear, but I'm sure she's hot and uncomfortable with all that fur.

As for me, I had a nice birthday. My father plans to buy me more presents and take me out again when he get his next paycheck, but we had a nice time eating out and going to the movies. I got some awesome headphones in the process.

I'm partial to the kitty ones right now. I walked around the house with them the other day, but my ears started getting hot. xD I also got a tank top, but I didn't like the fit of it and returned it yesterday. That shirt was 27 freaking dollars, so it wasn't really worth it anyway. I end up using that money and buying a new DS game. A lot more fun than a boring ol top.

By the way, Ace Attorney vs. Professor Layton hasn't came out here yet. The U.S. release is August 29th. So not fair! *sobs* I wantz it now!

P.S. It looks like I'm going have to moon someone to get the stupid TS4 CAS demo. 

Happy Birthday to me and 300000 hits! Weee!

I'm officially 25 as of today (July 12th)!

....5 years till 30.*sobs* o_-

And I got 300000 hits. How convenient. Obviously someone is still reading this blog. ;)

Thank you Mares for making my face hurt from smiling. Darn you! I'm quite speechless or maybe I should say typeless? Virtual hugs back to you guys and everyone reading this! Thank you all!

EA's PR guy creates his own PR mess! All for a pretty girl? You be the judge!

Update: Mare's more in-depht post on the matter here. :P

pandabearrox posted this extremely interesting twitter covo between EA's PR guy, Charlie Sinhaseni and some scandalous looking chick named Camille. I say scandalous, because I'm trying to be nice. You should see her twitter page.

Look how eager he is to give to her! I wonder why.

FFS EA what are you doing to your site?!

If I have to look at this page one more time I'm going to scream!!!! Then it's not like it appears when I'm just bored lurking. No it happens when I'm about post something or turn in my comp pic in! 2nd day, 2nd time! It's f'ing frustrating! Aghhhhhh! Gawd I hate that page!

Edit: I tried another browser and it works....for now.
