so 2013 is over and im not sure how i feel about 2014 yet. I mean, good news is I get to go see Kayla in her homeland of michigans on the 6th. I am so in need of a vacation. I haven't been away for ages.

Although, I've been having a lot of pain again, and I'm worried (slightly) that its the cyst trying to ruin my fun times by becoming infected again. If it is, I'm pretty much screwed as the other doctor said he couldn't do anything for me and I needed a specialist... specifically "my specialist" but I don't have one? I don't even know where to start with that. I definitely DON'T want to go back to the same hospital that mucked everything up last time. Just. No. I dunno. I just want it to stay infection-free for all of january, and then when im less stressed out I'll start looking into surgery #2, since its essentially my only option at this point. Again.

Oh and last night I fell down the stairs of the house I was house sitting for. Like, seriously?? I'm not used to stairs at all because I don't have them in/around my house now or growing up, and I tried to go down them in the dark. BIG MISTAKE. my foot caught the edge and my ankle turned into a wet noodle and i fell. Probably have some bruises but whatever. My ankle feels weird still. It doesn't specifically hurt but it just feels really off. I can tell I tweaked it on the stairs but I guess it doesn't seem too bad then I shouldn't complain. I just feel like an idiot. e_e

Otherwise I've just been playing a lot of video games. :I been on a Ratchet and Clank kick lately. Got the platinum trophies in the first two games, need the platinum in ratchet 3 and 4 (deadlocked) and then I'll have it for every single Ratchet game, since I already have them in all the ps3 titles. :x yay.

I feel like I might play through all the games in order though. Also I'm pretty excited for the movie to come out...even though its not for a while off yet. hopefully we'll see more trailers and stuff for it this year. yay.

I'm gonna work on filling out the 2013 game review thing I've posted the past couple years, but I'll post it in a new post since this one got a bit lengthy. lol

THIS ENTRY IS JUST TALKING ABOUT GAMES. everyone on my flist loves games, right!?1/1/1!??/1!

first is kind of a sad disappointing game. resistance never deserved this. :'c

second is an AMAZING OH MY GOD I LOVE IT game. spec ops was well worth the long wait.

also somewhat related. did anyone hear of the Watch Dogs ARG fail?

well. i was on that. i have like. 70 emails in my inbox from these guys. all because ubisoft accidentally my email. it was hilarious until some dbag started adverting his dumb tumbly. i like how ubisoft has said nothing about this, despite accidentallying like 1000 email addresses. NBD THIS HAPPENS DON'T SAY ANYTHING. can i have a free copy of watch dogs for getting all of these email spam including from some hipster dbag and his tumbly.

i would share caps of the email chain because some of the replies are hilarious (all the ones calling ubisoft failures, mostly) but gmail is being a jerkbag and i cant figure out how to cap an entire chain of like 70 gmails. if someone can tell me i will show you.

( Resistance: Burning Skies )

( Spec Ops: The Line )

a week or so ago (I FORGET WHEN :D:D:D) i played the demo for spec ops: the line. AND IT WAS REALLY NEAT. i like the environment, and despite it being in a city that's covered almost entirely with sand (and destroyed by sand storms lol) it's not /all brown/. Not that brown games bug me, but people bitch about it a lot. and i bet people will bitch about that game "being brown" anyway lollo

I'd been watching the preview images/videos for this game for a while now (over a year? i think?) but I hadn't planned on buying it right when it came out... but now thanks to that demo I've pre-ordered it off amazon. oh, and amazon is giving me free $10 for pre-ordering it from them. free amazon money and a game? sold.

I also pre-ordered the new Resistance vita game even though the studio behind it has that terrible "playstation move heroes" game on their roster oh god why BUT I'M TRYING TO GIVE THEM THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. But Insomniac is done... so... :'c I'll have to deal with it.

BUT THIS BRINGS ME TO MY NEXT POINT. I feel like I have too many uncompleted games. TOO MANY. And now I have to decide which one to play next. I'm hoping I can finish two full games before Spec Ops comes out (end of June) i can probably do that. i could probs do more if i wasn't so intent on replaying games i've already played. killzone 3 is a cool guy though.

i have other uncompleted games, but out of the playstation 3 and the Ps vita games, which should I play next!? (also Resistance: Burning Skies isn't out yet, but will be on Tuesday, so i added it anyway)

Also E3 is next week!!! NEXT WEEK!!! NEXT. WEEK.

i don't even know what to expect, other than obvious things, but oh golly gee whiz... i am looking forward to the unknown. btw, if anything inFamous related is announced the internet might implode, and it might be my fault. just a fair warning.

also looking forward to anything from insomniac. hoping to see more of overstrike. :x The devs keep tweeting about playing the game SO I HOPE THEY WILL HAVE SOMETHING TO SHOW AT E3 NEXT WEEK. im too excited.

and i might be getting sick BUT IDC BCUZ VIDYA GAMES.

i did some shopping today even though i shouldn't have. i got some things. Though everything I got was relatively cheap. YOU CAN TELL WHAT I AM CURRENTLY INTO RIGHT NOW, CAN'T YOU!?

uhhhhh yeah i beat all the games in the jak collection already. i still need to collect the orbs for jak 2 and jak 3 though for the platinum trophies. it will probably make me want to flip tables because some of the junk they want you to do for them are annoying as hell but ...................trophies.

but then i got jak x and daxter today (AS YOU SEE) and it took like 900 gamestops to find them (ok 6...) and every place had Daxter but no place had it with a case, and idc if I only paid $2 for it (yes two whole dollars) i want that case. >:I but then the last gamestop i went to i gave up and was like WHATEVER I'LL JUST BUY IT WITHOUT THE CASE but then the copy he pulled out from behind the counter was like a brand new case (with manual even) and i was like HOLYCRAP and it was an exciting day. also jak x was $5. and then i noticed on the back of jak x (and daxter) it says you can connect daxter to it and unlock extra junk in jak x. OH GOODIE. idek what it is but im kind of excited about this. FREE THINGS YEY.

then i also cleaned off a shelf on my desk that had 900 old CDs on it (AND FLOPPY DISKS. I FOUND FLOPPY DISKS!!!!!! my computer doesnt even have a floppy drive...) and i threw all that crap away and made room for PONIES. in my head this shelf would have fit all my ponies and still had room for more but somehow it didn't turn out that way.... :| my friend has 2 more fashion style ponies for me rn too. ....i have no idea how im going to fit them on this shelf.

YEP SO IDK. im not even tired but i should go to bed.

also look how terrifying that Daxter figurine I got is. idk if anyone on my flist has played jak and daxter?! (i am so late to this dont judge me) but ...i...i don't really like daxter. i desperately wanted to like him but i just couldn't. D: i have no idea why but... ugh.

anyway idk things video games ponies lalallalalalal

my ps vita games came today. YEA, I ORDERED GAMES BEFORE THE ACTUAL SYSTEM. don't judge. they were on sale. I'd already planned to get two of these games, but then amazon was doing a buy 2 get 1 free sale so i was like "I GET A FREE GAME!?!?1//11?!" why not, right?

Still waiting on my final credit, and then imma order my vita. AND IT WILL BE BEAUTIFUL. i need you, lumines

BUT ONE THING... let me say one thing. vita game boxes (and the cartridge itself) are so tiny...
( fotos )

I got over half the amazon credits I need in order to convince myself its ok to buy a playstation vita. i'm so excited you guys. i heard you can take screen shots and then you can twitter it right from the handheld itself.....without even having to exit the game.

i will just casually spam my twitter with all these hilarious derp things i do in games on my vita. i feel sorry for everyone who follows me on twitter

did i mention i already bought 3 games for it? .......oh. yeah I did. :'D Amazon is doing a buy 2 get 1 free sale, and two of the games I already planned to buy were there, so I pretty much just got a free game. (picked out Uncharted, Lumines and Rayman: Origins, for the record)

oh except one thing.

my car.

my car is doing something funky.

yeaaaaaaa. so i gotta take it into the shop tomorrow morning at way-too-early am and then HOPE AND WISH that it isn't a billion dollars to fix. but with the car reeking of gasoline when i turn it on, i'm not feeling too good about it because if it is, count me into more debt and also no vita. :'c i'll just have to admire the pretty games. LOL.

this is about my luck though. i bet medical issues are going to come up now too, or they'll wait until the day i open my vita to happen and then i'll regret buying it. i should just stop buying things because this always happens

the news about PS Vita is driving me crazy. I just... I cannot resist.

I redeemed a bunch of vouchers from various rewards things I have and will soon have $110 in amazon monies, that, plus whatever my return is (hopefully more than $200 :|) will buy me a PSVita without dipping into my pay check money at all! This will feel like a gift to myself, essentially. And it couldn't have come at a better time!

PS Blog posted about Resistance: Burning Skies and they showed a tiny clip of gameplay during a live stream thing a bit ago. I ... I need it.

I know it seems funny to be excited about a Resistance game after being sad that the series was over... but well, this is the first step Resistance is taking away from Insomniac. I am interested to see where it goes and while the character development in Resistance: Retribution left me confused, the gameplay was still pretty fun. I am hoping this one will be good too. I'm sure it won't be an Insomniac game, for sure, but I'll take what I can get.

Otherwise I will be content to play Lumines for all of time.

oh yeaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh im excited.

SUP FLIST. this post i am going to talk about the video games i played over the course of this year, and such. its basic 100% uninteresting to everyone except me so i won't be upset if you skip this.

i only play dumb games no one else plays anyway :D

( THE THINGS. UNDER THIS CUT )

so if you've had the unfortunate expirience of being eyebrowaddict or thekayla recently you'd know i've suddenly developed a borderline creepy obsession with deus ex: human revolution.

it all started with a trailer...
( this one, under the cut... )
AND THEN... i got the game for my birthday. sort of...well, my brother claimed he didn't know what games i like (despite me mentioning an interest in deus ex before my birthday :I) and just got me gamestop cards that equaled the amount of a ps3 game. soooo i got deus ex!!!1

idk if i can even say why i love this game. there's a lot of things in it. its so ridiculously shiny (i mean, dat trailer.) and you get mini cutscenes for punching dudes in the face which sounds lame but is actually hilarious and amazing all at once. or maybe its because you can also do things like this. but also maybe it has to do with jensen's perfect hair. srsly i keep talking about his hair. i don't even know you guys. look at this perfect hair.

i stayed up till 3am last night just to beat the game. idec that i still feel like crap and i got like 4 hours of sleep.......aaaaand i still want to play it like 9 more times. delicious platinum trophy. it also has a really cool soundtrack... i might try to get my hands on it when it comes out.

anyway, jensen has perfect hair, you guys. i've never really paid much attention to hair styles on characters this much. IDK WHY I EVEN LIKE HIS HAIR SO MUCH BUT I DO. though Zeke gets +10 for sideburns which are cool too, ngl SO LIKE......f-list, since I am certain none of you give two shits about Deus Ex:HR, so instead plz to share with me who you think has the best hair.

So idk if i posted this here but i am working on getting the platinum trophies in inFAMOUS and inFAMOUS 2 again on an alternate PSN account (its "CoelMacGroof" if anyone wants to add him ololol) but today i accidentally glitches. i find fun things in inFAMOUS no matter what, no matter how many times i have played it...

( some videos )

and btw i have all the trophies except the ones for going through on evil. bawww evil cole i dont like you so obvs this plat won't be hard to get. :I I can blow through the entire game (ignoring side missions anyway) in like a day. I CAN PLAY THIS GAME LIKE A ROBOT. ITS PROBABLY CREEPY AND WEIRD. but after 10+ times what do you expect

btw did i mention i like infamous
