Maybe it's telling how infrequently I update this website. I've been meaning to, but I can't decide now if I had a lack of time, energy, or dedication. Certainly I've had enough to talk about. 2k Games announced that a new XCom game is finally coming. First off, notice that it's XCom and not X-Com. That alone should be some sort of telling sign. It's definitely not what we hoped for. Instead of strategy, it's a first person shooter. Instead of being near future or future, it's set in the 50s. Instead of being an X-Com agent, you're an FBI agent. It remains to even be seen if the familar X-Com aliens even are in the game. At some point, I wonder why they even bothered to keep the name. Nevertheless, it's announcement has been met with mixed reaction. Those of us who played the original are either pessimistic or simply going to wait for it's arrival, but it's hard to believe any X-Com fan is excited. Sorry 2k Marin, but that's just the truth as I see it. Maybe I should explore the X-Com 'scene' and see what others are saying. I suppose I should update my X-Com site. I suppose with the originals being on Steam now, and for so cheap, I shouldn't complain. It's what I do, however.

| llamalicious has been created by myself, Pete Nolen. It serves little to no purpose other than to amuse myself and a few other people who happen to know of it's existance. It has been built with a various amount of tools over the years, which include Frontpage, Netscape Communicator, Notepad, and Textpad. This web page is best viewed with either telepathy or a
computer monitor with a resolution of 800x600 (preferrably 1024x768 for decent viewing). I am not responsible for any wasted time or brain cells by the viewer of this page. If you die while reading this web page, then I am in no way responsible and will neither pay you nor your relatives money. All pictures that I made are were made in Adobe Photoshop, JASC Paintshop Pro, or Paint.NET except in cases where otherwise noted. If you want to steal this page then you're dumb. If you are offended by any media, I offer my most sincerest apologizes and hope that by some manner of coorespondance throughout several years, we can come to the heart of the matter and find an acceptable solution that allows the offense to be removed without me having to do anything. If you do not understand a piece (or pieces) of this page, please do not feel bad. I don't really understand it either. This page is Year 2000 Compatible, but only on Commodore 64s. I would like to thank all the people who put up with me throughout all the years. My friends, my family, my classmates, my coworkers, and the vast majority of online avatars and the people in the real world that they play. I also would like to thank all the people that didn't look at this page. It keeps more people from laughing and pointing.
