  1. Pokémon X and Y

    Woops, I meant I have Froakie and bulbasaur! And I picked up Charmander and Squirtle. Would love Fennekin if you're looking to trade next time I see you on.
  2. Pokémon X and Y

    Thanks for the Noibat Tegan! What starters did you choose? I got frog and squirtle, so if you don't have them I'd love to grab a bred one from ya =D
  3. Pokémon X and Y

    I added you! You didn't add me! 2294-4298-0966
  4. 3DS Friend Codes

    Added everyone on this page. Here's my code again if you haven't added me yet! 2294-4298-0966
  5. Julian Barnes' Levels of Life

    Finished Barnes' new book earlier today, Levels of Life. Similarly short as Sense, but more beautifully written and affecting in my opinion. I picked up the UK edition, not sure whether it's out in the US yet. Anyone else read it?
  6. Pokémon X and Y

    Totally true, though I haven't gotten to that part yet!
  7. Pokémon X and Y

    I succumbed and downloaded X. Wow is it a joke to control the character. Why bother with diagonal movement? Game looks and otherwise plays great so far, admittedly less than an hour in.
  8. Pokémon X and Y

    I read if you use the dpad you won't us roller skates. Currently vacationing at an onsen resort so Pokemon will have to wait until I get home tomorrow, haha.
  9. Julian Barnes' Levels of Life

    Yes! So glad you agree! Shit, I was getting depressed since everyone ignored it. Such a great read! In fact, I might read it again after I finish my current book because I cannot remember enough to talk eloquently about it.
  10. The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway

    All signs point to no. The signs being the absolute silence and ignoring the forum posts and questions related to whether the podcast will continue.
  11. Pokémon X and Y

    I can't relate, but that's pretty funny. Does that really mean Jake is going to pick up X or Y? Funny how into his 3DS he's getting. Maybe Sean will pick up whatever Jake doesn't, hah. Remo will remain confused, playing Spelunky with Congrats Nick in the background. <3 the Thumbs. Completely not sure whether I will break down and buy digital but who am I kidding I probably will. Ugh. Well we shall see how long I may or may not be able to postpone the purchase.
  12. Pokémon X and Y

    Doesn't make a difference to you. Digital is an option, though I strongly dislike using my CC since I am living in a different country.
  13. Pokémon X and Y

    Wish it wasn't region locked. Would def pick it up if it wasn't region locked. Not sure I will otherwise. Gg Nintendo!

    Apparently Chris did the music for this game: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/captain-bubblenaut/id596632987?mt=8 Anyone try it out yet?
  15. Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel

    This may be preemptive but, wasn't this supposed to be the September discussion? What happened there? The main page even says, 'we promise!'
  16. The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway

    Wasn't this supposed to be the August discussion? What happened there? The main page even says, 'we promise!'
  17. Nintendo 3DS

    Yeah, Steamworld Dig is fantastic. More people really ought to pick it up. Soooooooooo fun making your little cave and making sure you have shafts to get back up and all that. Really beautifully done game.Also, I turn off 3D all the time. I really liked playing with it on at first, but my eyes freaked out when I went back to read on my iPad and the text started moving.. I can appreciate what Nintendo did including it, but eh they should have waited till the technology improved because it definitely isn't there yet.
  18. Nintendo 3DS

    Steamworld Dig just released on the eShop is FANTASTIC. Really really fantastic! Highly recommend you kids check it out.
  19. Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

    Figured that would be the case. Guess ill skip the GB quick look then. Glad to hear you're enjoying it!
  20. Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

    Yeah, I'm intrigued and will wait for the PC release, too.
  21. iOS Gaming

    Haha, yeah this thread kinda went down hill real quick. To get back on track, I'm still playing Hero Academy after all this time. F'ing love that game.
  22. iOS Gaming

    I'll bake you a cookie, instead.
  23. iOS Gaming

    Don't feed the trolls.
  24. Gone Home from The Fullbright Company

    Where/why did the whole ghost thing start with Gone Home? I've completely forgotten.
  25. Fez 2

    You guys are being way overly dramatic re GAF. You have to cherry pick the threads, but there can be interesting discussion there. It isn't all so horrible, hah.
