Why do people type in all capped words Like This?  I don't get it.  Are they forgetting which words are supposed to be capped and capping all of them just to make sure?  Are they trolling (this one definitely wasn't)?  Or do they just genuinely believe that's the way capitalization works?  Argh, I just don't understand  :'(
Maybe they like to pretend they're German?

Except Germans only capitalize Nouns. Although, why would they know that little Fact?

SoTC is a prequel to ICO, an earlier game by Team Ico.

I believe I've mentioned Youtube's upload weirdness before.

It runs on Windows' time estimator.

I dunno, I've had more issues with OS X's (or at least 10.3.9's) time estimator being way off.
For starters, it often goes backwards and I end up with it saying 738 hours remaining right as it finishes unarchiving a tarball.

Seems Steve Jobs is working on some new apple product that can take us back into time and hes currently testing the software discreetly on the mac users.

Quite possibly.

Also, I have bacon and cheese flavoured cricket candies.
Awesome.

Magic the Gathering 2012 is a videogame about a card game. Apparently, even though you can play all these games with several different decks, you cant fucking make one of your own.  WTF, I wanted to build my Saprolings deck and make the game engine cry like a little girl!

I went for a walk along a coastal path yesterday, which happens to cross some common pastoral grounds with dozens of grazing cows. Very rural. Very idyllic. Peaceful.

At that point a nearby farmer decided to fire his shotgun at some birds or the neighbor's cat or something. Then I was crossing some common pastoral grounds with dozens of suddenly very startled cows.

That does not make the ending any better.

Well damn. I am officially even more annoyed. Fortunately, I have an annoyance limit for bad scriptwriting, and that limit is decreased further for video games, so I am not very much more annoyed than I was annoyed previously.

I don't see anything wrong with the ending.

Not sure if she was an illusion, since she carries what's-his-name up to the top of the temple, to that garden thing.

Which, by the way, you can climb up to early if you keep replaying the game with the same save, eating the tails from the blue-tailed lizards to permentantly increase your strength (and of course, beating the Colossi increases it as well), until you're strong enough to climb the moss on the back-right outside wall of the temple (i think it's right, don't think it's left, i haven't played in a while, but i know it's outside in the back). You can't climb back out, so you gotta revert to save etc. but still, man this game has a fair few hidden details you never find if you just ride from A-B to the Colossi.
