I am not dead ... yet (｡◕‿◕｡)

I'm just plain crazy busy. And will be at least 'till the end of January ◔̯◔
So, quick update on my gaming life.

On the holiday sales I've got a bunch of indie games (Cogs, Chains, Gumboy, Obulis, Vigil) and Burnout Paradise (finally; which is awesome, BTW). And Lumines, which sucked (it's broken since release and was never updated). PSP versions are sill the best versions.

Plus, I've pre-purchased a Bioshock 2 on Steam and got first Bioshock for free (which is double awesome, because it's not available for sale in my region).

Also, I've pre-purchased Collector's Edition of Mass Effect 2 and, guess what?, its release date has been shifted down to February 15th... Riiiight, now I'll have to choose between Bioshock 2, Mass Effect 2 and Assassin's Creed II (assuming that it will be released in February as was planned). (◕︵◕)

Patch 1.03 (or any patch at all) for Russian edition of English Divinity II: Ego Draconis still hasn't been released (yeah, we have our own "original" version of the game; which is really German, but oh well).

I play Song Summoner on my iPhone from time to time and it's kinda cool game, but I'm still at the very beginning.

I've started Half-Life 2 again, now with Update mod (solely for achievements' sake).

On the non-gaming side of my life, it's much more brighter.

First of all, I've finally set up my own private website and moved my blog there (in Russian only). That was fun (and challenging).

Second, I've got most of the 六弦アリス's albums. Including the last one, 骨董店 『Mystique』 (which is almost as brilliant as their 少女幻想奇譚). I so hope that one day I would be able to buy all their works. Please, please, please 乂◜◬◝乂

Third, on the New Year's holidays I've watched more anime and movies than on the whole last year. Including トラどら！, Tokyo Marble Chocolate, とある魔術の禁書目録(インデックス) and とある科学の超電磁砲(レールガン) (first 12 episodes), plus 2012, Planet 51, Zombieland, Avatar, Iron Man, Harry Potter 6 and Cloudy with the Chance of Meatballs. (Yeah, I am that slow to catch up on things).

As a bonus, I've found 2 wonderful people that write amazing haikus: 白菊 and moyanII.

So, I guess, that's all, folks!

PS: I'm kinda suck at writing, so I tend to update my posts with minor corrections for some time after original posting, so won't be surprised if something was changed after you've read it the last time.
