Link has some competition

I have no idea what the game's going to be like, but for the Legend of Zelda fans out here, you should probably see the trailer for The Last Guardian. That link claims mature content, but there is no bad language, no nudity, and the violence is bloodless and cartoonish. There aren't even any swords. Curiously, the main character looks like an Asian, albeit a superhumanly athletic one, whereas last generation's games stuck strictly by the everyone-looks-European convention.

I took apart my iPhone on Sunday. The goal was to get the home button working. The case will never quite be the same, but we got it apart and back together in working order, which was quite a feat (it took about 2 hours). The only thing we couldn't get working was ... well, the home button. It worked while it was apart and we were testing it, but it quit again as soon as it was back together. It is to laugh.

The 3G phone has now dropped to $99.00. I am officially tempted, in spite of the extra $10.00 a month that they get you for on the plan (it comes with faster Internet). I'm trying to decide if the new line of phones is worth the extra cash.

If the new Link/Zelda game is the color gold, then it'll remind me of the Link of yesteryear.

Get a new phone so that you can send/receive text messages! Seriously, it's 2009.

I can send/receive text messages, I just have to reboot my phone afterward if I want to make calls :P.

That seems more like ICO than Zelda. I don't see how it's a competitor. :S

Ouch on the iPhone, thing. It sounds like you might need a new one.
