On shelves today, bitches!!!

It's no surprise that I've had a love affair with these series since FFVII (notorious for converting casual gamers into RPG nuts), which makes me compulsively want to buy everything that has a Square-Enix logo in front of the box. I mean besides those horrible "SaGa" games.

Final Fantasy VII in particular brings a lot of good and bad memories, because it came out when I was a freshman at Mayagüez, and that game became some sort of pacifier for all the fucked up shit I went through there. My only purpose during those years was waiting for the weekend so I could lose myself in Midgar and forget about my last flunked exam, or my stolen bag, or how expensive the new chemistry book is. Initially I left the PS1 ...Keep reading.

I  moved out of my house.

It all happenned so fast and so casually that I haven't really had time to digest the whole situation. Books, clothes, toys and lots of other crap remain in boxes in someone else's house, waiting to settle down and start a new life with the only person that has been able to stand me (and viceversa) for over two years.

The house is still far from being completely revamped, but at least it looks much more inviting now that it has furniture and a new paint job inside. Outside it still looks shabby and peeled. But hey, it's not that bad. It is a thousand times better than that castrating cube I called my room back in my parent's house. Heh, I'm still not ...Keep reading.

A few days ago, while I was rummaging through Faggotland-- I'm sorry... Plaza Las Americas, I noticed a curious looking little cart in the middle of the hallway near Babbages. I see a lot of Yugi-oh and Pokemon crap so I figure it's just another anime fanboy service booth (poor things, they're very neglected in Puerto Rico). As I walked by it I noticed something that made me scream like a little bitch, making everyone's head turn and the cart attendant to jump and stumble out of his stool. Fuck!!!! I just HAVE to take this motherfucker home!! I don't care if it's $30 bucks, he's MINE!

So I did. Behold.

Sephiiiiiii!!!!!

It's Sephiroth, modeled after the Advent Children movie. I have been seriously lusting for this figure since I saw ...Keep reading.

In your face, motherfucker.

In case you cant decipher what's in the link or are just too damn lazy to read, the president of the tax and financial commissions, Antonio Silva Delgado, has completely slammed into the mud a proposal that would add an additional 1% tax to all videogames, consoles, and accessories in Puerto Rico. I'll assume you read my previous rant on the subject. If you haven't, do us all a favor and CLICK THIS before you go on.

Well, Mr. Silva has furiously slammed the videogame tax idea and has stated that the project is dead and buried even before it hits his desk.

"Personally I'm against it. That tax means to penalize whoever buys those articles. It burrows deeper into people's pockets and now with the new sales tax no additional contribution should be imposed upon people and that shall not be approved".

Suddenly, my faith in politicians has been raised ...Keep reading.

Puerto Rico hates gamers.

By clicking the link (and assuming you can read spanish) you will see a new reason to hate living on this island even more. Some fucktard punk politician submitted a project to add an additional 1% tax to videogames, videogame consoles and accesories. WHAT THE FUCKING HELL. In total, that could amount to a whopping 8% tax whenever you want to indulge in some digital escapism.

What I like even more is the reason they used to propose this project. I'm directly quoting the "ingenious" fucktard who just made my whole week sour.

"This project came up because the Secretary of Sports had some concerns about videogames causing children to practice less physical activities and be more obese, and because we feel compelled to strengthen sports programs in every town, since not even the department of sports or any of our cities has the resources".

Goddamn motherfucker sounds an awful lot like ...Keep reading.
