David Bowie, Alan Rickman och Glenn Frey, och vi är fortfarande bara i januari. 2016 verkar bli ett tragiskt år.

and tagged it with Mario Kart Mario Kart 7 Nintendo 3DS Video games I’ve been playing Mario Kart 7 for 3DS lately. I’ve loved Mario Kart games since I first played it on the N64 a lot of years ago.
The 3DS game has been a lot of fun this far and today I finished first in all the cups of the the ”100 CC” difficulty. I’ve also played online for bit and found it to be entertaining. (It’s actually the first Mario Kart that I play online. I do own it on the Wii but I haven’t bothered connecting the Wii to the internet.)

and tagged it with Majora's Mask Majora's Mask 3D Majora's Mask play-through Nintendo 3DS Tri Force Heroes Zelda Two days ago (on Monday) I did as planned, played Majora’s Mask and actually finished the game.
I tried to help Kafei retrieve the Sun’s Mask but I failed. I did not feel like retrying the whole thing so I headed straight for the Skull Kid and Majora.
The final boss battle was weird, like so many parts of the game has been weird. And I mean weird in a good way. I really like Majora’s Mask, and I think I’d place it among my favorite Zelda games.1 I do however think part of the reason I enjoyed is as much is because it’s different from previous Zelda games, and because I’ve played so many of those. I wouldn’t recommend Majora’s Mask to someone who’s looking to play his/her first Zelda game.
Incidentally, my brother bought a Nintendo 3DS for himself for christmas. He also bought Ocarina of Time 3D, Majora’s Mask 3D, The Spirit Tracks (a DS title) and A Link Between Worlds. My advice to him was to start with A Link Between Worlds. I think that it’s a great ”beginners Zelda game” while still being a really fun one for the experienced player.
As a side-note, I really couldn’t bring myself to just try the Anju/Kafei side quest and then do the final boss, I also had to help Romani and Cremia. I just love those character’s so much and the battle against the ”question marks”/”aliens” with Romani is so much quirky fun.
Also, I bought Tri Force Heroes for myself.

and tagged it with Majora's Mask Majora's Mask 3D Majora's Mask play-through Zelda I think that by blogging about every step of my progress on ”Majora’s Mask and even more so committing to the idea of creating the perfect day in the game, I accidentally turned play into work because I haven’t played the game since conceiving that idea.
That’s a shame since I was so into the game a while ago and I really felt connected to the game world. So this needs to end.
The idea of the perfect day is dead, at least for now. Next time I’ll have an hour for leisure time I’ll play the game again and focus on reuniting Anju and Kafei. After I attempt that, whether I succeed or not, I’ll go for The Skull Kid.

The list of podcasts to listen to and articles to read about ”The Force Awakens” keeps on growing for me. I need to finish my review soon.

and tagged it with Vinter i P1 Hans Rosling ”Vinterpratade” häromdagen. Jag lyssnade på det idag och tycker att det, som vanligt med Rosling, bör höras av alla. Jag blir optimistisk inför världens framtid när jag hör honom prata och det tycker jag är bra.
Nåt av det sista han sa i programmet är väl värt att citera:
Jag älskar Sverige, både för att det är en så fin del av världen och en så stor del av världen finns i Sverige.
Det tycker jag är en bra anledning att älska vårt land och en bra anledning att arbete för att det ska fortsätta vara en fin del av världen, där en stor del av världen finns representerad på olika sätt.

Why are you continuing to harangue me on Twitter, through email, though doxxing me, through spreading malicious rumors about me, and through hostile threads on KiA? What’s the point? What does this accomplish for you?
It’s a question worth thinking about, because it seems completely at odds with the things you state that you believe – such as developers should be free to ship games without censorship. It doesn’t seem logically consistent to rally to defend games like Dead or Alive from a few stray feminist Tweets, while organizing efforts to harass me and my employees.
I would probably use the word “hypocrisy”.
– An Open Letter to Gamergate — Cosmodrome
(my emphasis)
Brianna Wu hits the nail on the head regarding GamerGate’s hypocrisy when regarding their claimed protection of ”free speech” at the same time as they try to silence anyone who criticize them or a game they like.
Obligatory reading!
