Ooh, if Amazon is to be believed, Dynasty Warriors 7: XL is indeed coming to the states in November. Ah can't wait! Also, I don't know what the hell I was talking about in my last post about the timing problems of Xu Huang's great axe. After using it further, my initial issue must have been a fluke. Because that weapon is just monstrous. I mean, as I said before, its a 5 slot death element, and a much better choice for a secondary than the best rapier (also a 5 slot death element), particularly for those who are proficient in it. Seriously, the weapon is ungodly! Particularly if you spam c6. I mean, the combo knocks them into the air, but as they come down, your last hit "catches" them, wherein you can just do the c6 again. Of course, if it doesn't kill them, they can air-break out of the second c6. But, if it kills them, since the last hit catches them before they fall, just keep on doing it over and over for an easy infinite combo.

Today, saw Cowboys and Aliens with the usual suspects. It was an okay, if not really memorable action flick. All I really have to say about it is that holy cow, Olivia Wilde is totally hot. Speaking of, both Olivia Wilde and Emma Stone seem to be Hollywood "It Girls" of the moment. And I'll have to admit, I didn't really feel them initially. When Olivia Wilde was first on the OC, she didn't really register for me. (Shannon Lucio with her strawberry blond hair and glasses was far more interesting to me) Maybe it was the blond hair, because she looks infinitely better as a brunette. And on Drive, I think they just put too much make up on Emma Stone. But nowadays both girls are HOTT!

After, had lunch at Monterrey's then headed to the Phatcave for some games. Played the updated version of Clue, wherein they have these new intrigue cards, and instead of being "Captain" or "Miss" or "Professor", the characters have first names- Jacob Green (the man with connections?), Jack Mustard (now an ex-football star instead of a Colonel), Kasandra Scarlet (now a Hollywood Socialite), Diane White (now a former child actress), Eleanor Peacock (from a rich and powerful political family) and Victor Plum (a self-made internet millionaire). Not sure why they needed to change the game up, if it ain't broke don't fix it!

Also played Mega Monopoly. And hey, I think that's the first time I ever won a game of monopoly. In the end, the ex-roomie busted out to me after I had just built skyscrapers on my only monopoly (florida ave-park place-boardwalk), and clevemire conceded, since I now had all of K's monopolies, and he just had the one. I mean, we could've played it out, but I think we were both just ready for the game to be over. I was thinking cool, I'll be back in time for the latest ep of a certain television show, but then I was disappointed to learn the new ep is next week.
