[Anime, Pop Culture] Cosby Bebop

(via ShackNews)

I never missed "The Cosby Show" when I was growing up, and "Cowboy Bebop" was an animated masterpiece with striking imagery and a killer soundtrack.

So it's with no small consternation that I look at this and giggle uncontrollably.

[Personal] The 360 Cometh...

When I got off of work today from working on the patch for "SiN Episodes: Emergence," I stopped by EBGames and dropped almost $700 on something I'm not going to really use until Thursday...I bought an Xbox 360.

Being tech support is stressful. Working on a patch with a limited timeframe for release (Wednesday is our target, so we have to have the patch really done by Monday afternoon so we can send it up) is even more stressful.

So, I picked up an Xbox 360, an extra controller, 1600 Microsoft Points, "Dead or Alive 4," "Perfect Dark: Zero," a copy of "SiN Episodes" (hey, I bought the third copy on Steam, but I wanted a box as well), and a few other miscellaneous items...they're going to be my reward on Thursday for making it through this stressful period.

That way, once the patch is out, I can hopefully take a day off (working non-stop for two weeks tends to wear on one) and beat some shit up.

[TV] CSI Web Puzzle

By now, I'm sure that a lot of you have seen this web clue puzzle for the season finale of "CSI."

I've only found a few "interactive" clues in the picture...

• Hovering over the backwards "PLAY" replaces the picture with the word "DEAD."
• Hovering over Sara's picture causes her head to turn.
• Hovering over Grissom's head causes him to turn to look at the body, and causes a crack in the window in the door in the back to vanish. It looks like he has a piece of paper in his left pocket.
• Hovering over one of the casinos in the background causes that casino to vanish.

So what else am I missing from the picture besides the person being shot looking like Brass?

(Sorry, I needed a brief break from tracking down bug repros...)

[Personal] Whew...

Nearly 300 posts in 18 hours across multiple sites. My fingers and eyes hurt. Need sleep.

[Piracy] SiN: Ep (Not Work Safe)

[ temper on ]

Evidently, this lame-ass pirate group going by the handle of "PROViSiON" decided to dedicate some hours so that episode one of "SiN Episodes" would be what is known as a "0-day warez release." Fucking smacktard pieces of shit.

The game is $20. $20. All this industry has been hearing from fuckers like this is "Oh, drop the price and we won't pirate because we poor people won't have to." So, we self-fund the game entirely, drop the price to something to a level where we stand a chance of breaking even, and what do you know! They pirate our game anyway!

So if you know any members of this "PROViSiON" group, do me a favor...kick them in the fucking nuts and piss on their face. When they ask why, just say, "Well, normally I have to go to a fetish club and spend $20 to do that to someone, but you walked by and I figured, 'What the hell, I'll do it for free.'"

Assholes.

[ temper off ]

By the way, if anyone who downloads the warez version comes to one of the sites and asks for support and I find out that you warezed the game, just be warned that you haven't seen temper yet.
