Random humor, as defined by the Uncyclopedia, is a type of humor which is often thought to be random but refuses to acknowledge the supremacy of the Pope. It is unique in that it is the only type of humor that is an ingredient in Jell-O. It is best known for being similar to Mountain Dew in that it has no use in solving a three-tiered math equation.

  Metroid Prime

  I finished the second boss on the first game, which isn't much more than 00% through the game (or so it tells me). Those wasps were quite a hassal to kill.

  

  Despite the tedium of that second boss, I find the game quite fun, though I just realized that it's compatible with my stray Wii Motion Plus. I think that might solve some of my control issues--I often found that the Wiimote would slide down too low and I'd have to waggle it around until I got the sensor's attention.

  

  Sigh, the game is very pretty, considering it's generation. There are plenty of blurred textures to go around, but the shadowmapping and HUD really make the environment feel alien and unbreathable (in the sense that it's alien, not that it's closed in).

  

  overall, I enjoy the game, and it sits tight between an 8.5 and a 9 for me. While the entrance was a good flash and bang, I really won't give an absolute score until I finish, but you can expect a very detailed and long review from me.

  peace,

  I forgot to tell you that I got Muramasa too.

  I bought Muramasa on Christmas Eve--and though I haven't finished it, I wrote a review like I did. It was because I felt like writing and I needed something to write about.

  

  Merry Christmas!

  Copy and Paste

  So, I wrote a review for The World Ends With You--and if I have you cheering by the end of it, I think I may have done my job.

  

  I also put the last nail in the box for Phantom Hourglass by rewriting my review. Most of it is just reiterating what I've said before--please give me a couple of thumbs up though. I know I spent a long time writing it and I feel some may benefit from it.

  peace,
