Colossal Squid

Ever since I learned about their existence, I've been fascinated by giant and colossal squid. I'm not intrigued by the tales of the Kraken but just interested in learning more about how they grow to become that size and just what the hell they do their whole lives.

In fact, I remember i wanted to go for marine biology as my major because of my fascination over these squid. I guess my dislike of swimming overcame that real easy.

I still enjoy learning about these animals and I watch and read everything that I can. So when I read news about a complete colossal squid being caught, I just get totally re-energized about the animal all over again.

It's really cool stuff and makes one wonder what else lies in the depths of Earth's oceans.

IE sucks

Apparently this blog isn't happy when you use IE. =\

I'm lazy and IE users should be using Firefox instead.

Go get Firefox.

Shadow of the Colossus Collectables

I recently purchased a box of ten Shadow of the Colossus One Coin Grande Figures. (click the link to see the pictures I took)

My first impression, other than the fact that these totally kick ass, was how detailed they were especially since they're 3" tall figures. My second thought is how well some of them capture the actual events of the game, especially the figure for Colossus 14 (as shown above). My other favorite is Colossus 1 where Wander is hanging on for dear life on the colossus' back.

Sadly, they only made 6 of the 16 colossi into figures. My friend and I hope that they'll eventually release the rest of the figures.

Now that I have these, I really want to start playing the game once again. I'm also wondering what the development team for SotC is making for the PS3.

Ashamed

I'm weak. I went and bought The Burning Crusade and have even reunited with my old guild. I don't know what's wrong with me - I just felt that I really had to see Outland and try out the two new races. I'm currently hoping to just get my priest to level 70 and level up a Draenei shaman and a Blood Elf warlock to whatever levels I can within 3 months.

Now that I've finished Twilight Princess, I can now move on to other games that I've had in the queue. I'm still about halfway through both Metal Gear Solid 3 and Okami, so I'm going to start with those first. I also have Final Fantasy XII to go through. But with WoW back in my gaming schedule, there's no telling what I'm going to actually play.

Stupid WoW.
