paxlogo Hey this is moonblaze here with a quick list of stuff to do in Seattle while waiting for your flight/drive back to where ever the hell you live! Now a few general things to know is that you can find a ton of coffee shops all over (like Starbucks, Seattle’s best coffee)

note about article: most of the locations/ prices/tickets/hours are directly from the sites I link. There are probably many more place that I could list, but I think these are the ones most adults will want to see >.> sorry for the formatting and not comments on each place, I recommend them all but honestly I don’t know any more.. This part here is to just say. I SUCK AT RECOMMENDING STUFF SO YOU SHOULD EXPLORE ON YOUR OWN. And a sigh I should never right something like this again

Kelly mentioned these in Episode 39.. Here they are, for your consumption:

Morning Quickies – September 1, 2010

Posted by PhilU on Sep 1, 2010 in News | 0 comments

It’s been a long time / I shouldn’t've left you (left you) / without a strong link to click to–

Okay, let’s just stop that silliness in its tracks.

(Joystiq, Destructoid) PlayStation Move reviews are starting to come in. Here’s Joystiq’s look at the hardware & experience, and here’s Destructoid’s impressions of the "living room experience." I dunno, I just can’t get behind these new motion control gimmicks, but hey, maybe you’re excited.
(Siliconera) From the "what is this I don’t even" department: Tokyo Jungle, Sony’s urban jungle game. "In 20XX mankind left Earth leaving animals to fend for themselves. The once busy streets of Tokyo are now home to lions, tigers, and chickens. All of them are fighting for survival in this PlayStation 3 game developed by the creative PlayStation C.A.M.P. team inside Sony Computer Entertainment." Reportedly a Pomeranian and a thoroughbred horse are key characters.
(also Siliconera) Here’s a bunch of cool sequels and remakes we’ll never see in America: Final Fantasy Legend III, Disaster Report 4, White Knight Chronicles Episode.Portable: Dogma Wars. One we probably will see? Monster Hunter Portable 3rd, because I hate Monster Hunter games and therefore they’ll inevitably all end up Stateside…
(NintendoLife) Brush up on your Japanese; while G.G. Series Ninja Karakuri Den was released to DSiWare not more than a few days ago (and was at least moderately entertaining), NintendoLife has first impressions of the surprisingly English-friendly G.G Series Collection+, available for import for your DS.
(Cubed3) Haven’t bought a DSi or DSi XL yet? Well, good news – prices for Nintendo’s handhelds are being slashed. With the 3DS on its way in the next six months or so, Nintendo has dropped the DSi to $149.99, and its chubby friend the DSi XL is now only $169.99. Fancy taking a step backwards in time? The DS Lite is still $129.99. (All prices USD.)
(Polygamerous) Yes, last but not least, news from our very own site. Mike pinged me in WoW last night to let me know that a new shirt had been added to the store. I took one look and ordered it immediately. What could so immediately get me to part ways with my hard-earned payola, you ask? Simple: the power of the Three Controller Moon shirt (also in women’s!). P.S. Did you know we have other shirts? We totally do.
