Shows I'm Following

Pan Am - Who knew that this would be, so interesting? Or, at least interesting to me, so far I like each of the characters and globe trotting is always fun. The espionage is probably what keeps me tuning in, but so far so good, let's hope ABC keeps this in the air.

Body of Proof - Oh, yay another crime drama. Except, with Dana Delany and Jeri Ryan. Of course we're investigating murders, but in this character driven show its all about the interactions between everyone from Detective Sam Baker to Dr. Kate Murphy, as their lives intertwine, so are the minutes I waste watching the show, and I am more than happy to waste these minutes.

NCIS - Can't go wrong here, and so far this season we get more in-depth with our favorite characters, like the Penelope Papers guest starring Lily Tomlin, so for all the McGee fans that was a fun one, and of course Abby lovers like me just loved the episode afterward, Enemy on the Hill.

Hawaii Five-O - Um, ABC you should be taking notes on how to revive and old show with out the old dusty story lines and clunky action scenes. For two seasons straight Book'em Danno has once again become a household line. Well at least if you're a guy named Daniel, I'd say it... Anyway, definitely worth looking at online at cbs.com, so if you are interested in it, you should watch it.

Yeah, nothing else really captures my fancy, and I've left Bones once they jumped the shark last season, and House with that Big Lip Alligator moment. Nothing for Fox, and NBC well they're lucky if I watch the late show.

No cable shows, just network since that's all I can watch right now. Thanks for tuning in!

Two Originals

Let me introduce you to, to two, original stories that I hope to be penning here soon, with the help of my beta reader. I'd like to show you, the Vyper and Ignition. The Vyper will be a period drama set in the late sixties early seventies, and will involve your usual police corruption and one woman determined to clean up the department. Ignition takes you to modern day, San Antonio, Texas where we will meet someone whose looking for a little pay back, and a little less conversation. Both will be in prose, novel format, and told from third person. If you'd like to see more art work from me, visit my deviantart, http://misskoria.deviantart.com.



Changing the Blog

I could tap all day about the reasons why the New 52 in DC isn't going to work in the long run, but that would be beating a dead horse. So, I'm going to focus more on gaming, television shows, and the occasional comic talk. I've had a hard time keeping up with blogs so here's to hoping I can do that now.

Gaming in 2012

So it seems my wallet will be screaming what with Skyrim, Arkham City, and MW3 coming out yeah that's just the start.

We all knew.

Being a gamer would be expensive, but none of us expected franchises like Mass Effect would take off the way it did, pretty sure Bioware's happy about that. It's just amazing that games have come such a long way, from beeps in DOS, to full on 3D game play. Of course, it's not just about your typical fighter or shooter game these days, there's choices, and gamers have lots of them.

From DanceDanceRevolution, Rock Band and back to Dance Games, the trend is high and low, games like Pokemon still remain on top without changing their formula. The biggest thing has been story, and hours of game play. If we're dropping sixty dollars on a game, there'd better be hours, and hours, and hours of game play.

Mountain Dew, and Lays Potato Chips are your friends and leaving the house just isn't even thought of.

There are some Gamers who get out, us casual folk who bump around from Bewejeled to Puzzle Quest.

Looking at the next year of gaming and looking back on three decades of gaming history, we've come a long way and we're still climbing.

Hardware is outpacing software by a long stretch, as it is just now catching up to dual core, let alone a quad or hex core. [I myself have a hex core]

Console gaming is huge but PC gaming is just as large with games like Counter Strike still chugging along, ten years later. When we all look back, and look out now to Arkham City, Skyrim, and MW3 it makes you think. The generation that was born with a mouse and keyboard, will probably be the innovative generation for gaming as we are the big drivers.

I look forward to a new year of gaming, catch you n00bs on the flipside.
