Today I have tried to make four different blogs, but I ereased them all.  So in thinking for a bit I am just going to do some of my random thoughts.  You may or may not agree with Random, but Random can be fun some times.

As Michael posted yesterday in his News Blips about Fat Princess getting a patch.  That is a good thing, but then again I am still enjoying this game.  I have played with a few of you all on there, but hope to get in some game time with the rest of you all as well.

With the delay's of games I can be great full to Raven Software as now Singularity PS3 version is now a first day buy.  I don't look forward to delay's, but this one went from bargin bin to must get due to time.  The only other game to delay this season that is a first day buy for me is Darksiders which comes out in January.  I guess this round of delays will get the publishers not to over load the holiday season.

Speaking of the holiday season I wont be buying COD: MW2 even if it has night vision goggles.  I think in a way this game is making other publishers delay there games so it can reap all the holiday gold.  it may be just me, but I think Activision is getting gready even for it's own britches.  Yes I will still buy MUA2, but that is cause I love Marvel.

One thing on my mind recently is phrases.  Games don't have phrases people say often.  Games have more of a tone or sound people can relate to.  Mario will always have that coin sound to him.  Zelda will have many songs,but you know it came from Zelda.  Yes even Earthbound has a song you could tell only if you played the game though.  Hmm Maybe earthbound has a phrase, but you would not understand it unless you played the game though.  I don't count Duke Nukem as having phrases cause the one most people remember is "Shake it baby" for the most part.

In the sea of lost games we have many that we would love to see remade from classis we love.  What is surprisng to me is no new indy developer is looking at Ducktales, Chip & Dale, QBert, or anything else we enjoy and make a new game with same addiction to it.  The day and age we stop making classics will be a sad day for gaming as it means our past will be lost unless something is done.

I think my random for today is over, but with that being said.  Cake is one a piece at a time you can feed the princess.  Since you have the power to game it is up to you to play how you want to.

Titan Studios has told me that the patch is coming, and that they are very pleased with the response they are getting towards the game! I only had time to play a bit this weekend, but I hopefully will be on after work!

Nice Rant too!

@Lance I always launch potions and bombs in the pults, but don't find it effective. How ever I have found out that when on fire have a ice mage near you to cool you off.

I am going to try to night to brib my little one with Raving Rabits TV Party for the DS. Just cause Strafy was to much money for me today.

@Lance there is just more then that, but I think things will change up after they tweak some things. So maybe a combination of fundimental tips maybe in order before we move to classes.

@Toby - What the really need to do is add a shield button for all of the classes, not just the warrior.

@Lance I think that is the point they all don't need a shield though. Take the Worker class for example. What he lacks in weapons he makes up for in speed and strenght. So when you go after the princess make sure you are a worker. You get a speed boost when carrying her.

@Toby - When I play a worker, I am a sitting duck for Rangers... :( And if the give chase, I die.

@Lance that is why you make sure you find the quickest way to get to another person on your team. It is for the love factor. If you find guys who are fighting and go near them they will heart you. One cause you got the princess. 2nd they will defend her. So even if you die and the bad guy dies. Your team mates can bring the princess home.

@Lance that is why you always storm the castle with company or diversion like bomb or chicken juice.
