Yeah, barking and nervous/upset.

A dog I had when I was a kid was absolutely terrified though.

Did the last Scarecrow sequence and escaped Killer Croc in Arkham Asylum. Pretty cool part of the game.

It's taken me most of the game to place where I know Oracle's VA from, and she's Ashley from Mass Effect. Good to have finally gotten that figured out!

Beat the Poison Ivy fight in Arkham Asylum, and based on the trophies list, I'm guessing I'm almost at the end of the game now. If I'm wanting to find all the Riddler stuff, should I do that now, or will it be easy to go back and do it after I beat the game?

Arkham Asylum beated! Pretty good game. Playing as Batman just feels really good, kind of like how the Insomniac Spider-Man made controlling Spidey feel natural. Being confined to the one location the whole time got a little old by the end, but I imagine Arkham City fixed that problem.

I'm glad we're just now asking what a HiME is halfway through the show. Also, how do they know there are only 12 of them? I must have forgotten that part.

All right, I completed all the riddles in Arkham Asylum. Unfortunately, there was a glitch when I was collecting the Spirit of Arkham files (it played the same one twice for two different locations, which I noticed early on, but didn't think it would wind up being an issue until it was too late, whoops!), so I wasn't able to get all of them on my file and so I missed out on the trophy for that one, which was kinda lame.

Wheel of Time book 10 beated!

Like I suspected, this didn't really move the narrative forward much at all and there was an awful lot of Aes Sedai scheming and plotting, but there were some good character moments, at least.

I saw that the prequel, New Spring, was released after this book, so I'll probably read that one next. Looks like it's only about half as long or less than a normal book, so it shouldn't take too long.

4 > 6 > 2 > 5 > 7 > 1 > 9 > 3 > 10 > 8

I didn't finish book 10 but this is about as far as I got in the series. (Partially because book 10 was kinda boring and partially because I was moving at the time and just never picked it up again afterwards)

Pretty similar to my rankings overall, though I think I liked book 3 a good deal more than you. Not super confident since it's been years, but I'd probably go something like 5 > 4 > 7 > 3 > 6 > 9 > 2 > 1 > 8 > 10.

I need to get back to this series at some point in my life.

Wow, a person who doesn't rank 10 last! Very nice. New Spring is solid, but I feel like it's mostly worldbuilding (though it does have a couple cool scenes).

I think 8 having zero Mat after how book 7 ended is kinda unforgivable and I hold that against it!

They're both clearly the weakest, so the order doesn't matter too much.

It's possible I might have 10 above 8 if I had finished it. I'm sure the parts later on are better than the early parts just because that's how the books are in general, and even as-is 8 and 10 were close-ish (and clearly below everything else)

Book 10 not having a real climax might be its biggest sin. At least book 8 tries to have something.

I went ahead and started Arkham City. I like the premise, but man, they've already thrown a bunch of side content and new techniques at me and I'm barely into the story. I'm guessing it's like Asylum and I can tackle it whenever I want, but it already feels like a lot.

Up to the point in Arkham City where I have to locate Mr. Freeze to find a cure to Joker's Titan poisoning. Having playable Catwoman segments is pretty neat, although I hope they only use them in short bursts the way they have so far.

Huh. I wonder if the anime continues past that movie or not. I always felt like where Season 3 ended or where this movie looks to be ending would be the ideal "early stop" points. If they continue adapting past here I feel like they should really try to be in it for the long haul. Though the manga did just announce the end is near (something like 13 chapters away now?)

TWEWY2: Finished Week 2 Day 6. Here I was waiting for what I thought was the inevitable Kanon betrayalton and it was Matoi all along. Dang, Kanon might be legit because I don't know we're going to have back-to-back betrayaltons. Also Shoka got demoted and will presumably join my party shortly because the game doesn't even try to hide the fact that she is an eventual party member lol.
