And so far, it has been a lot faster paced then the previous two. It is really rather brilliant. On the first day I took it into college, a fellow fan came up to me and asked how it was, and we spent 5 minutes talking about how awesome the series is, and how awful the film was.

I love the series. Possibly more than doctor who. (See if you can spot the reference to doctor who in Brisingr and a possible reference in inheritance)
Excerpt from Brisingr:
Adrift upon the sea of time, the lonely god wanders from shore to distant shore, upholding the laws of the stars above. The trickster, the riddler, the keeper of the balance, he of the many faces who finds life in death and who fears no evil; he who walks through doors.

I would post the excerpt from inheritance, but I can't remember where I saw it, and I don't want to google for it incase of spoilers.

Also, Galbatorix is awesomely written.

Bootcamp is the greatest thing ever. Though I'm also an enormous fan of the trackpad. Two-finger scroll FTW!

Really? I've had my Mac for about two months now and I've only used Bootcamp twice- both times to play Rollercoaster Tycoon.

I use Bootcamp all the time, mainly because both of my PCs are quite some distance away from me. I just wish I had created a greater partition. So far, I've used it to play ME2, The Witcher, Planescape: Torment, and Sanitarium. Though, now I'm thinking of maybe seeing if I can get Fallout: New Vegas to run on it.

Finally saw Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, now that the hype has died down. I didn't think it was the greatest film ever, but I did enjoy it, so I just purchased the game.

It´s one of those rare cases were the game is better than the movie that game is just fun to play.

That's only if they go the other way around.

Games based on movies typically suck.

Moves based on games typically suck.

There are exceptions here and there.

What? Me not keeping up with the Games industry anymore, I've not seen it until a few posts up, and my first thought was that they somehow left the bit in photoshop to let you know it's transparent on.

Yeah, I had the same exact reaction. I have no idea what they were going for there. They could have at least made it a bluish pattern so we could imagine it's a sky.

3d->Layers->Background layer maybe? Meh, it sucks (as a box art).

Anyway, my copy of Skyward sword has just been dispatched, so I guess that is my most recent purchase. But I'm about to buy:

£15.99 (marked down from £39.99, with a two year guarantee on it!)
