Kupowered: It's Way Too Hot, You Guys.

It's Way Too Hot, You Guys.

Like, it is so hot. You don't even know. This is the time where I hate not having a fan, because, well, it is very goddamn hot and a fan would help. I mean, I have a tiny one, but I don't have a plug for it, and it doesn't do a lot anyway. Like, it's just a little better than those handheld ones. I need a fan that will make my whole room like, 62 degrees. Which sounds a lot like an air conditioner, which I don't have! Of course.

Minecraft storms are 80% cooler than real-life storms. FACT.

The downside of this heat in Spring is also that Spring can't just be hot. No, it has to be a constant battle of Hot fronts and Cold Fronts taking their turn flying over head just to make everyone miserable. Which means storms. Which means I may be missing a post or two this week. Just, y'know, throwing that out there as a warning. If you find yourself going through Kupowered Withdrawals because of this, just, y'know, read my Chrono Trigger DS Posts. "But Mogs, I already read those!" Well, read them again. But no, seriously, I worked pretty hard on those, so if you would read them, it would be appreciated.

This heat is also pretty much interfering with a good bit of my gaming. I did dig out a PS2 over the weekend and start up Romance of the Three Kingdoms X again, and had some pretty good times with it. But I'm too paranoid to turn on my PS3 since I don't want it to explode before the PSN comes back up. Whenever that is. Because damnit, I got the Trophy for Answering all of the questions in DW7 which rendered all of my other work completely useless. Of course. The guy never did get back to me, by the way. There's the update on that. Anyways, the point is, I don't want the PS3 to explode because then I can't synch my trophies and then we're going to have what is known as a problem.

But the PS2 doesn't need nearly as much fussing over it, as far as I'm concerned, so this is a good thing. I might head over to Nobunaga's Ambition here soon on that, or I might power through a few PS2 games I've actually never played. Or, y'know, play some old favorites. I'll let everyone know what happens with that. Or I might jump back into heavy portable gaming. I have been playing Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow again for reasons I myself can't discern, as I don't even really like the game. And Valkyria Chronicles 2 does remain unbeaten still.

All I know is that I'm still hot, cranky, tired and hungry. So, this is probably a good place to stop.

What's all this, then?

This is going to be many things, but first and foremost, it is, quite simply and unsurprisingly, a place for me to write. Sometimes about video games, sometimes about movies, and other times, just to write out mini-stories and the like. As an outlet for me, it will likely reflect how I am; at times it will be entertaining, and other times it will be informative. I just hope that every time it's interesting at the very least.

The current goal is a post every other day to settle myself in; eventually, I will seek to post every day, if just to raise an inquiry that I've found I've tripped over most of that day, or to retell an amusing, or perhaps less so, tale from the day. I find that I can be long-winded at times, so perhaps this will be less of a concern than I imagine!

While it would make sense to change this to grow as "Kupowered" does, I hope to keep this just as it is and, sometime down the road, re-read it with a slight chuckle and mumble to myself, "I did it." So take this as a mission statement, if you will, and we will see how it works out!

Handy Post-Types Guide!

A Look Back: In lieu of reviews (which I might do in the future), these posts will be fond recollections of older games from my past, telling you why I believe them to be good and why you might be interested in playing them.
Giant Robot On: I like Giant Robots. Who doesn't? These posts will always be talking about something with Giant Robots in it, be it video games or anime or movies.
Less-Short Story: On occasion, inspiration will hit me and I'll want to write a short story or, as the name implies, expand on a story from my old Ficly. That will be these posts.
LittleBigThings: In these posts, I will be discussing (read: gushing about) things in the LittleBigPlanet series of games, from the game itself, to user-created levels, to my own adventures in Craftworld.
Music!: Fairly self-Explanatory. In these posts, I will talk (gush) about music I like, and possibly music that I don't care for.
Popcorn On: These posts will revolve around movies that I've seen that are just great in one way or another. The aim is to give you enough to interest you into seeing it without giving too much so that you feel you know what's going to happen.
Quick Note: These will usually be, as can be expected, short posts to keep in touch with the blog and it's readers if I'm not prepared for a full post or if I'm updating on a past post.
Ragequit: Completely opposite of A Look Back, these posts will be about the few games I've had to quit playing because they just weren't fun. (Or that I might have finished, but still hated.)

There will likely be more types of posts added in the future that will be explained here.
