i have never mentioned(mainly because i kept forgeting) but i love the aleph null blog so far, especially the explanation of our name...honestly it really made me proud to be a part of this...i'm really hoping for us to be able to add some stuff to it, and i would like to get back together with you guys regularly somehow...i truly miss it with all of my everything and want to find some way to bring us back together again as a band, and not just a name. i've had a few ideas to make us more like a band and less like a bunch of guys with instruments that make noise together, and also am realizing how little it matters whether we get serious, or keep just having fun because i truly miss the fellowship(sorry, mike's post about klyde and the aleph blog have me in one of those moods). I also want to make an attempt at puting every bit of truth that i can behind the description of our name. There's alot of power in that name, that song.
"Just how shallow is my love?
my heart?
my wounds?
my bleeding?"
I never thought our own song would bring me to tears.
just how shallow is my love...how shallow...how selfish...how could i?
finally my love, finally my love, finally my heart pours out these tears...these tears...my God...oh my God...my Jesus...oh God!
FORGIVE ME
JESUS PLEASE FORGIVE ME
GOD I'M SO SORRY
SO SORRY
PLEASE...
i will make it all ok
(pointing to His wrists)my stars, (now His back)and my stripes. there is your freedom. take it!!!
TAKE IT!!!
WHY WON'T YOU TAKE IT?!
how can i take it? what have i done for you? how many times have i SPIT in your face and stomped on your freedom? how many timess have I carved your cross?
well i didn't really intend to type all of that, and you can feel free to forget you ever read it. to think...i got on here to tell mike i'd bring the movie by tomorrow. if you'll excuse me, i have something to do...
New Lord of the Rings Title Revealed As Actual RPG
05.29.2004
This fall, Electronic Arts will release a new Lord of the Rings title for PlayStation 2, GameCube, Xbox, and Game Boy Advance. Lord of the Rings: The Third Age is an American-made RPG, and its development team includes former employees of Squaresoft's Los Angeles studio.
The story of The Third Age does not focus on the main characters of Tolkien's story, but on a new group of characters who occasionally crosses paths with the heroes of the Fellowship as they forge their own story. Game events include epic scenes from both the books and the recent films - such as exploring Moria, battling the Balrog with Gandalf, and fighting the Uruk-Hai at Helm's Deep - along with some key events from the books that were not included in the movies.
The Third Age appears to be a merger of Final Fantasy style turn-based combat and the visuals of Peter Jackson's blockbuster movies. The game also uses digital extras from the film as its character models, and the characters' equipment is based on movie costumes.
The party includes up to six people, with only four in combat at a time. The races are standard Middle Earth fare - Elves, Dwarves, Hobbits, and Men - and the classes include fighters, magi, and rangers. Characters can learn different kinds of weapon skills and elemental magic. Experience points are rewarded according to a character's performance in battle, and extra skill points can be used to customize a character's stats.
Amaze Entertainment is developing the GBA version of The Third Age, while EA's Redwood Shores studio is developing the multiplatform version. Both versions will be released sometime this fall.
