Ha ha! Saucer separation.

Ha, Astrodotus was fun, although it was also the easiest of the remixes, and Neo Khidr is okay, if you can manage the finicky controls. Screw Alexander IV, though; I think he has a random pattern, and he constantly summons little minions. Ponce de Freon was hard, too, but at least he has a predictable pattern.

You have to beat the boss, get its obol from a shrine (the statue) and give it to Charon at the entrance. That opens up a door where the boss used to be, and you can try that remix as many times as you need without penalty. The fifth one is only unlocked if you beat the other four remixes, and it takes another obol to

Have you seen those souls? They're pretty dark, guy.

It's just raw meat and seasoning. I don't see how it's any more gross than a pound of ground beef from the grocery store.

I'm actually kind of hungry, now.

I thought you were a duck!

Cookie dough vodka, Cookie Monster in the background. Coincidence?

I loved Wolf and Llewyn Davis, and I liked a lot about Her, so heck yes to a weekend like this.

Ha, Memento is one of my favorites, too. The structure could have been pretty gimmicky, but the film has good reasons for being the way it is. On the first viewing, it helps you understand the character's situation, but past that it also lends itself to the occasional comic bit and a fair amount of dramatic irony.

I bought the soundtrack to Inside Llewyn Davis, which is great. Why wasn't the music eligible for an Oscar, again?

Dead Space 2 is my favorite in the series. It took the gameplay from the first nearly wholesale, made a few interesting changes, and put it in a larger setting. I wasn't a big fan of what they did with the third.

It's probably the same as it ever was; it's difficult to get into, so people who are into it see it as a point of pride, but throw in a little elitism and it turns into something that separates the "true" gamers from the hoi polloi.

What does the hammer represent?

Who's the president?

The contestant said "Emanciptation Proclamation", with the extra "t", rather than "Emancipation Proclamation". I couldn't tell at first either.

This Family Feud gameplay (by GameTek as well) is pretty funny, too, and you can guess how the word detection works once you see "butt scratcher" become "butcher". I think the system it uses would allow for some honest mistakes, given a few of the other nonsensical answers that the game accepts, but it's obviously

Either way, it's pretty hot.

For me, Mega Man X is the one that hits the sweet spot of nostalgia and good tunes; Zero's theme and Storm Eagle's are the ones that I remember most.
