Because Stephen Asked Me to....

I'm posting. So don't get angry for me not posting now. You have to wait for a while to get angry now.

A Truely Sweet Song

Xenosaga Episode II was looking like a bad game. The only thing going for it was the drama scenes and the fight scenes. Then I went to "Blue Laguna" and I downloaded the soundtrack. I was blown away. Yes, sometimes Yuki Kajiura is a bad musician (especially when he repeats. In the game it is made worse by the field music) You hear about 4 songs with the same name and melody. Then, All of the Sakura's (Sakura is the name of the 4 songs) come together in a beutiful mix of orchestra and the most beutiful lyrics you will ever hear.
Sweet Song is the name of the beutiful mix of Sakuras. Every time you hear this song, you will cry. It is just that good. read this exerpt from the lyrics:

I remember the days of summer
We were so close together
You were humming the songs of silence
Sweetly plucking the harp of wind

Every moment was sacred and mystic
We were near to the shore of eternity
The days are gone, and will never come back
...
Life can never be perfect without you
But I'm still on my way to the future
For I remember your sweet song in my mind
...
I remember the days of winter
You were sitting beside me
All alone in the shuttered places
We were waiting for thawing day

Every moment was sacred and mystic
We were hoping the night was eternal
The days are gone, and so far away
I'm still singing your sweet song for long
Long windy nights...

Isn't it wonderful! The melody is the best part of the song though, So I reccomend that you get the soundtrack!

Windows x64

Today, Mirosoft has released Windows x64, a 64-bit version of Windows XP.

Do you know what this means?

That's right.

Microsoft has finally caught up with the Nintendo 64 and the Atari Jaguire!!!
I'd like to point out that other operating systems, like unix and even OS/2 have been 64 bit compatible for some time now. Now everyone can use their AMD Atholon XP Processors!!!

Go here

GO HERE NOW! my life depends on it!

Longhorn: The non-Unix KDE?

As you may or may not know, Microsoft has graced the public with a preview of the new windows, codenamed "Longhorn." It's supposed to be a radically new windows, with an even higher cost to your graphics card. However, as this reporter reads it, it's just KDE without Unix or X-windows.
For those of you who don't know what KDE is, it's a Graphical User Interface(GUI) that runs on a Unix operating system (Linux, BSD and variants, SunOS, NEXTstep, possibly even Mac OSX!) KDE is open-source, which means that it has infinate developers, resources, and (best of all) support. KDE can even be run on windows, whit the help of Cygwin/X. There are more GUIs availible for Unix, however, KDE is the most popular, next to Gnome, then Enlightenment. Although KDE is a "community project" anyone can contribute to, it has been given to KDE e.V, a company created just for KDE, to leagally defend the GUI.
An article from Cnet gives us a discription of the archetype build. "Document icons are no longer a hint of the type of file, but rather a small picture of the file itself," the article says. That has been a part of KDE for quite a long time now. KDE also lets you see the entire first page if you rollover it with the mouse. "Folders, too, show glimpses of what's inside." Cnet reporters apperently like to reiterate their point."Translucent windows and other graphics tricks are expected to find their way into the finished software." Still, Cnet thinks that this is new.
"If there is more than one PC in a home network, Allchin said, it will be easy to allow sharing of files and easy to get at those files. For example, a PC with Longhorn might show all the music files together, whether they are on the local PC or another machine on the network." This is one feature that KDE doesn't have, Soley because of the Unix infrastructure, whereas Windows is completely different. This would also cause further confusion if you should ever choose to leave the network, something commonly done with Notebook and Tablet PCs.
The artical continues furter saying that you can change the amount of Eye Candy enabled on your machiene. It lists two problems (although very nonchalantly) the first is that it appears to have a preset-features-only setting, so you can't choose which features you want or don't want. After all, not everyone likes mouse trails. The second problem is that the minimalist version is like the current version of windows, which will couse problems in older computers.
Although it is never good to copy other's work, at least our friend Gates has finally learned that mocking other people can make feces look like chocolate. maybe someday he will be origional!

I just thought that I'd send a picture of two girls hugging!

Stephgen, I've a quote for you:
Adam Sessler: "so you like [G4]? What the Fuck is your problem?"

Ha ha

We would all like to thank Stephen for being the best person to pull a practical joke on. He thought that I was serious about kicking him out of the blog. I have talked to him (via IM), and clarified my intents.

the movies...

It's time to vote someone off of the island.

All who say that stephen should be kicked off of the blog, say "ay."


"Ay."

Ode de Mitsuda

As you all may or may not know, Yasunori Mitsuda, the musical talent behind Monolith Software is Phasing out of gaming music to work with his non-game music. Basically, he's evaporated from the United States.

Yasunori Mitsuda was the renaissance man of gaming music, defining the fact that music is an integral part of gaming. After all, even First Person Shooters would be boring without a good soundtrack.

Mitsuda also did a favor to all Americans, by giving us a small respite from rap. And, although this may sound somewhat silly, but he actually worked god into his works. The theme to Xenosaga Episode 1 (Der Wille zur Macht) was "Gloria Patriae et Filio," which transilates into "Glory to the Father and to the Son."



Here is a(n incomplete) list of all the games that Yasunori Mitsuda has revolutionized:

Chrono Trigger
Xenogears
Chrono Cross
Xenosaga Episode 1
Radical Dreamers
(unconfirmed) Xenosaga Episode 2 (Jenseits von Gut und Bose)
