Game Review: Bastion


Available on the Xbox 360, you can download this game from the game marketplace.

This game is definitely worth the purchase. The voice acting takes the game from good to amazing. It features great music and stellar artistry. The downside to the game is that occasionally it's difficult to tell where the ground ends and the sky begins, however this aspect also adds a little bit to the challenge of the game, so it isn't a very large downside. Overall, if you want a game with an interesting story, check out Bastion, it's well worth the 1200 Microsoft points to purchase it.

Happiness

In the end, happiness in life is no what computer you own, or what game systems you have, or how big your TV is or what kind of vehicle you drive. In the end, happiness is really good toilet paper.

No matter how crappy life gets, there's always hope as long as you have good toilet paper.

Techno Viking vs. Nyan Cat.

I'm not a big fan of the Nyan Cat video, but this one at least makes the music odd yet synchronized sound bearable.
