Now I am left wondering if the Starbucks over here sells those kind of seasonal coffees, or whether they limit that to the States.

Because some of those drinks sound awesome.

I'm pretty sure the Gingerbread one is widely available but I haven't seen any of these other crazy flavours.

For example, the concept of an Earl Grey latte just blows my mind. Earl Grey is tea. How can you have a coffee that is tea flavoured!? *explodes*

Train-station has one now. I'll go over later this week and have a look.

Teas can be made into lattes too. Starbucks has a Chai tea as well as a green tea latte (which I LURVE) on their regular menu.
I have to say though that an Earl Grey latte sounds kinda yucky to me... the bergamot flavoring would probably clash with the milk.

I only tried the Earl Grey because it sounded so weird, but I really do like it. I don't let the tea steep very long, so it's a very mild flavor. I normally don't even like lattes- something about steamed milk tastes off to me.

It's actually technically not even a latte because it doesn't have espresso. The recipe is half tea, half steamed milk and 2 pumps of vanilla. Very mild and good for a wake up call.

O rely? Despite the fact that you have 50 million other games to finish, plus the fact that Silent Hill: Shattered Memories is coming out for the Wii? I highly doubt you'll be playing Okami anytime soon.

Hush you. Also, I want to finish Okami because you gave it to me.

Of course. I knew you had to have it. It is the best.

Okami is a whole lot of love in one wolfy package.

I've only just gotten on the sunken ship last night before I had to give up and sleep. I need more time and fewer distractions.

I'm playing Condemned 2 at the moment. I never played the first one so I have no idea what SONIC DEVICES the fuck RABID BEAR is going BOMBS on. It seems on par with the shitty first person horror crapped out by Monolith with their other series, FEAR (Flickery Evening Alleyways Retail).

The doll heads in there will really cause problems if you don't slash them immediately. Just a tip, I regretted it later.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. Smile

Forget the dolls. I tried to run past one of the ghosts guarding the doors and nearly peed myself when it swooped right into the camera and grinned at me.

I nth the Okami love.

What I love about RE4 is the horror, the zombie shooting and the puzzles. That's why I'll be getting Silent Hill when I'm done with finals. Is Eternal Darkness or Left 4 Dead like that? Any more moody horror games look out for?

Anyway, my local Starbucks always sells Dark Cherry Mocha, Gingerbread Mocha and a Third X-Mas themed out that I like but can't for the life of me remember by name right now.

Not a tea fan, though. Iced Mocha Frappuchinos are my crack. And I'm starting to believe that the local Starbucks crew already knows my face. I'm so ashamed of myself.

Eternal Darkness is a brilliant game and you'll be hard pressed to find anyone who doesn't recommended it. It focuses on plot, eldritch abominations and "sanity effects": when your sanity gets lower, crazy shit starts to happen on screen to both your character and you. My personal favorite was the one that made it look like the game crashed or your power went out. Several seconds of EXTREME panicking later the game goes "lol j/k" and make you want to pitch the controller though your screen.

Left 4 Dead is a zombie shooting game made by the glorious Valve (Half-Life 2, Team Fortress 2, Portal). No puzzles, you don't have time. It is literally survival horror, if you aren't quick on your feet/witted you WILL die. The characters you choose from are awesome and funny without ruining the atmosphere. It has an awesome AI for both the zombies and the "Director", who is the AI that determines how many zombies to throw at you (if you're doing well, expect a swarm. If you suck, he goes a little easier on you). Every zombie is slightly different with 5 special zombies with some abilities to trip you up.

...Like The Witch. :unskilled78: When I hear her music start I freak out.

The second one is supposed to be crazy awesome. It's set in New Orleans during Mardi Gras.

Oh GOD now I have to go buy another copy of that game so I can play it over the holidays. THANKS FOR REMINDING ME, MAFI. FFFFFFFFFFFFFF- that game.

I think the best, most subtle thing about Eternal Darkness is the gradual tilting of the screen as your insanity rises. You usually only really notice it when your meter drops and all of a sudden everthing is back to normal—no bleeding walls, no listing hallways, nothing out of the ordinary.

I didn't notice a problem with the doll heads in Okami, but I did just about pee myself when the ghost flew past the screen while I was trying to draw. *shivers* Being inside the Emperor's body was notably creepier, though.
