I just spent the last 47 minutes listening to The Killers’ CD, Hot Fuss, and I can’t say that I’m overly impressed. While their big hit “Somebody Told Me” is a kickass song, I just can’t say the same for the rest of the disc. I assume that they’re an acquired taste, and if I listened to it a few more times I might get to like it, but I have other music that I know I like so I don’t think The Killers will be making it into my library anytime soon. Thank God I listened to the CD before buying it. Ths is a prime lesson in why you should never buy a CD until you’ve heard at least half the songs. I’mma go listen to Tesla now.
So… What else have I done lately? Oh, I downloaded the Rockman X8 PC demo today. you can find it here if you feel like giving it a spin. Just scroll down and hit the big red button. I was impressed by it, mostly because it’s so much better than X7 (which even I’ll admit was pretty sad). The only thing that disappointed me is that I doesn’t have any gamepad support. Or I’m just a dumbass and couldn’t figure out how to enable it (EDIT 9:10PM: Yep, I’m a dumbass. Found the option…). It’s got one helluva Capcom logo animation. I recommend downloading it just for that.
Shit, Sky Captain comes out tomorrow! I’m totally hyped. I love that movie so much. I guess that’s it for today. I’ll do some article work tomorrow. Maybe even get one done. Who knows.
