This holiday was a win, yes.
My grandmother wins a life, the universe, and everything. I asked for Volume 1 of Sandman, she got me Volume 1 of Absolute Sandman, which is issues 1 to 20 in gorgeous, huge hardback with concept art and all this amazingness. I don't even know, man.
My aunt and uncle got me perfume. Um. Okay. I thought everyone knew about my adamant hatred of perfume because all of it smells like chemicals to me, but whatever.
In other news, Assassin's Creed 2 would be awesome if not for the fucking tiny text usage. I am so goddamn sick of game developers assuming I have an HD television and can read size fucking 6 font. I am not kidding when I say I've gotten totally lost at least four times in my five hours of playing just because I couldn't read the text. I mean, seriously, WHY YOU DO THIS?! WHY WHY WHY? I feel like making a list of games that use the tiny fucking text and sending all the developers vicious hate mail. PLAYING GAMES SHOULD NOT REQUIRE GETTING UP, WALKING WITHIN 5 FEET OF THE TV, AND SQUINTING.
Otherwise, the game is amazing things. I'm seriously loving it.
Also got FF7:CC, so yay? And Pratchett's Mort. And MGS:PO. Which I also played a bit of today.
...
SO HOW ABOUT MGS:PO'S CONTROL SCHEME FROM HELL HUH?
My god, someone tell me I'll get used to it and/or MGS:PW's is better.
