The Truth Is The New Lie

By Tycho – November 24, 2008

Word that Eidos PR company "Barrington Harvey" was trying to massage metacritic ratings was not surprising in and of itself, because as we suggest in the strip, that is (strictly speaking) their job. No, what elevated this ordinary act to strip material was that, when contacted for comment, a representative of the company literally said this was their aim.

The Services I Provide

Valkyria Chronicles has exposed the whirring mechanical core of our relationship, the meshed interests that probably lead to the creation of the site ten years ago. It's a wholly new tactical experience, a gridless affair that manifests artistry from top to bottom. We overlap, here. We overlap, too, on the more lavish cutscenes. Neither of us has any enthusiasm for the banal insights into human nature that many Japanese games traffic in, but even there we have agreement. He has zero interest in upgrading squads, researching ordnance, customizing loadouts, matching personalities, and the other tasks that are required to maintain Squad 7's edge on the battlefield. Bookkeeping is not his heart's delight. Me, you know, I'll keep a book.

This is the sort of post that could quickly get out of hand, especially with me at the rudder.  Don't worry, I'll make it quick.

Here's my latest painting. I really like the way this one came out. It's much larger than anything I've done before. The canvas is actually 19"x30" which was intimidating at first. I really tried to focus my color choices on this one and I think it works.

A while back I mentioned that I recorded myself making one of the pages for our Prince of Persia project. That video is available now and I'll just go ahead and link it here.

Solitude

Kiko still jumps on, I think because he saw the comic, and took pity on my diminished station. Now that several days have elapsed, I'm seeing people percolating up into my Steam and Xbox friends lists, blinking rapidly, as though having emerged from a dark cave.

MuchSLO.  Go with that, it's better.

I may have mentioned before that I'm sort of a gadget fiend. I am especially fond of getting new cell phones. While I loved my iPhone I was also patiently waiting for that "iPhone killer" to come along. As time went on I got more and more tired of my iPhone. The problem was I couldn't justify switching it out because nothing else available really compared. Eventually my thirst for a new gadget outweighed my better judgment and I picked up the new At&T Fuze. This is just their version of the HTC Touch Pro. I was interested in the slide out keyboard, but mostly it was the promise of their "TouchFLO" interface that got me excited. I've had the phone now for about three days and I can honestly tell you that TouchFLO is a pile of shit.
