Packages and Excitement

Last week I recieved a package. It's, well, let me show you.
This is awesome. For those of you who don't know, I'm a MASSIVE fan of the Homestar Runner cartoons. (If you have no knowledge about the awesome that is Homestar Runner, click here to learn.) 5 'episodes' (i.e. short and wonderfully wonderous games) that were originally available for download (as most/all Telltale Games are) from an online store (if you would like to buy these games, go here), but now crammed on to one disc. This disc, as are most other Telltale discs, is a hybrid disc. Put it in your computer to play the games and get some neat little treats for your computer, and stick it in your DVD player to get some fully and completely AWESOME video content.

It's innards. It also came with a neat little bonus.

An awesome little badge for use with your T-Shirt. Now, for my next trick....

Ta da! It's got an inverse cover! You can go from the flashy new version to a classic cover. I've currently got it set to classic. If you're a fan of Homestarrunner.com or you just like brilliant adventure games, go to telltalegames.com to get a free demo and try it out. Trust me, you will want to buy it after 2 minutes with it.

I'd also like to discuss two new apps that were announced at E3 2009. Facebook and Twitter. I can't wait for these! I'm signed up to both and to have them on my Xbox and making them nice and easy to use will be awesome! Also, the Last.FM thing doesn't matter to me that much. I do like the idea of streaming music, though. But, yeah. Facebook will be handy, I don't use it much but it'll be nice. And Twitter is going to be FANTASTIC!!! I use Twitter more than I do Facebook. It's quick, easy and simple to use that even a rat with half it's brain could use it. And the new design for the 360 also looks quite clean and easy to use. Button shortcuts, ASAP updates and avatar use is all friggin' brilliant! Thank you Twitter and Xbox. You've struck gold!

Also, as Twitter followers will know, I'm a bit of an idiot for buying SOMI:SE twice!
