Top Gear Reviews the Volkswagen Fox

Surprisingly, this style of review tells you pretty much everything you'd need to know of a car that you'd actually drive every day.

Terminator: Awesome?

Wow.

Here's hoping it makes up for Terminator 3.

Grim Dark Wall-E?

Awesome. It's a Watchmen mash up, but if wall-E was more like this, I'd have nothing but praise. Instead, it's something that fails to live up to its own hype.

Nightwish? In my Gundam?

It's more likely than you think.

Awesome AMV. I don't usually circulate... or even watch... these things since the quality varies so much. But this one was rather masterfully cropped together. I just happened to come across it on a search for translated episodes of IGLOO 2.

Of which, Igloo 1 has re-invigorated my faith in the Gundam franchise. I found it thoroughly entertaining once they stopped japanese-ing all over themselves. Which ends about 15 minutes into the first episode.


And on the XCOM front I finished Apocalypse. It took me 11 years (I bought it when it was released) to get back to it and finish a campaign. It's remarkably better than I recall. There is some tedium, but overall I believe it is a satisfying addition to the franchise.

It was good enough to inspire a moment of quiet reflection on its own.
