"Heart of Crimson" - Chikayo Fukuda |
] |
The Game Stop on Calhoun Street closed down yesterday. I just happened to be right there when they were taking final inventory, and I was able to take something off of their hands:

It's now hanging above my door. Good times.
Audiosurf released on Friday, and I've been playing it like crazy ever since. I had some screenshots, but they're not all that great, so I think I'm going to hold off. There will be plenty of Audiosurf posts later, I assure you. In the meanwhile, though, I decided to be an absolute dork and make a livejournal community for the game. I'll probably advertise it on the Steam forums and the official forums when I rack up a few more posts in each. Obsessed? What's that?
You compete with people from all over the place for each song. There are scoreboards for everything, it's insane. Know what the kicker is? When someone knocks you off of your high score? THEY E-MAIL YOU:
Audiosurf scoreboard alert - Dethroned!
You used to have the worldwide best score for: blue by a perfect circle
Now the Audiosurf player 'Ryoken Ryagnaroth' has beaten you. Get back in the game and reclaim the top spot! View High Scores for blue by a perfect circle Needless to say, I quickly remedied that and now have the top score for "Blue" once again, but still, you should have heard me yelling at the computer, "EXCUSE ME?! WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?! I DON'T FUCKING THINK SO!" My roommate came in, gave me a hug, laughed and thanked me for entertaining her. ♥
