The Simpsons Movie

July 27, 2007

Best movie I’ve seen all summer. I don’t write reviews, so go somewhere else to read about it, I’ll just say it was great.

EarthBound!

July 13, 2007

EarthBound is my all-time favorite game for the Super Nintendo (probably in my top-4 all-time favorite games for any platform). It is going to be available for download to the Wii’s Virtual Console soon. I’m asking every Wii owner out there, buy EarthBound for the VC. It’s sales will be a primary deciding factor as to whether or not Mother 3 (the Japanese name for the games) will finally receive a US release.

P.S. I’ve been really busy recently, but the wallpapers will be returning soon. Promise.

A Friendly Reminder

June 11, 2007

Keep an eye on my DeviantArt page. I’ll be posting some wallpapers there that I can’t post here, due to the restrictions some stock photographers put on their photos.

Note: I’ve also added a link to the page on the sidebar, under “Blogroll.”

Joost

April 6, 2007

So, I came upon the Joost website earlier today and decided I wanted to try it out, but you have to be invited to beta test it. So I figured one of my loyal viewers might have an invite they would like to pass along to me. If you happen to be that kind soul who wants to share the love with me. Drop me a line.

Many thanks.

Email

December 24, 2006

I’ve been getting lots of email lately, and that’s great. I wish I could respond to you all, but unfortunately I only speak English. Yet, many of my viewers are from all over the world, and therefore I recieve emails in many languages. So don’t think that because you don’t receive a response from me that I am ignoring your mail, I just don’t speak any language but English.

So here’s my one-stop canned response for most of the languages that I receive emails in, that I can’t respond personally to.

Non parlo italiano.
Ich spreche nicht Deutsches.
No hablo español.
Je ne parle pas français.
Eu não falo o português.
Я не говорю по-русски
Nihongo ga dekimasen

By the way, Merry Christmas to everyone!

Hotlinking

December 18, 2006

Sigh. Welp, apparently you can’t do anything the easy way anymore. Here I am taking my time making wallpapers for the benefit of humanity and someone goes and starts hotlinking my pictures without even crediting Nowai for the images. Bad juju, people. If this becomes a more rampant problem than it is currently, rather than renaming the image file so that the hotlinked image shows as a broken image, I will start to replace them with some really nasty images. And then, those vile images will start to show up in the hotlinked images place on the offending blog, forum, wherever it is hotlinked.

This will be my only warning for hotlinkers, thieves, etc… stop doing it.

End transmission.

Just a note

September 14, 2006

I’ve just now decided to check what this site looks like in Internet Explorer, and the sidebar looks completely jacked up. I’ve been using Firefox since beta, and occasionally it slips my mind that sites look different between browsers. Since I have no control over the HTML of my site’s template (thanks a lot WordPress /sarcasm) there’s really nothing I can do about this problem, other than suggest to those of you using Internet Explorer that it might be time to switch to Firefox.

Email Errors

September 14, 2006

Ok, so apparently I didn’t have the mail address listed for the site forwarding properly to my regular email account and I’ve missed a lot of your mail. So, if you had some urgent question or comment, either send the mail again to the same address (I’ve fixed the forwarding problem) or just leave your message as a comment somewhere here on the site. Thanks guys and gals!

Silent Hill

August 22, 2006

I saw it in the theaters on opening day, and I just finished watching it again on DVD. It is, without question, the best game-to-movie adaptation. I love the Silent Hill games, and I am proud to say that the movie lived up to them in every way. I’m really hoping for a sequel gang, so lets all go out there and pick up a copy of the DVD!

Aug 22.

August 16, 2006

My new computer will arrive on Aug. 22, afterwards you can expect the updates to come back in full force.

Soon…

August 10, 2006

My new computer will be here in a couple of days and then the updates will resume. On a side note, I saw Talladega Nights a couple of days ago; it was good, I don’t see it becoming a classic like Anchorman, but it was worth my time.
