Say hello to my new baby!

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

My friend Fury sent me a Sega Dreamcast, this week. For the moment, I have no games to try with it. This would be the 27th system added to my collection. Forgive the low quality of the picture. My sister just has her baby and my parent went to see her, which mean that they took the camera with them. Well, that would be all for now. End of line.

New addition to the family…

Saturday, May 1st, 2010


Say hello to my brand-new PlayStation Portable. I’ve bought it Friday night, along with two games, LocoRoco and God of War. I also uploaded the first three Resident Evil games on it and a few wallpapers. Therefore, this console is going to keep me busy, in the weeks to come. The next step would be to find a carrying case for it. That would be all for tonight. End of line.

PlayStation®Home

Friday, April 9th, 2010

Are you wondering where I’ve been in the past weeks? No? Well, I don’t really about the answer. The reason why I haven’t updated my blog recently is the next one: I was on PlayStation Home! I spend the whole time chatting with people, playing virtual bowling and visiting Home’s different chat rooms. In other words, I was hooked on Home. I made some friends, made some enemies and found peoples to which I can play LittleBigPlanet. I even crashed my PS3, but that’s another story.

Anyway, the reason why I like home so much is that it’s the greatest interactive chat room ever. One of my favorite features is the camera, a tool that I can use to take screenshots on Home. At this moment, I may have taken over 200 pictures.

Finally, that would be all for now and for those of you who are also using Home, my handle is AtomicAmelyn. End of line.

More fun with Legos.

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

This time I’ve built the Shovel Buggy from the Classic Space series.


Booklet’s model.


My version.

I didn’t have most of the required grey pieces; instead, I used black and blue blocks to compensate. Well, I think it’s also great that way. That would be all for today. End of line.

Lego’s Space Shuttle

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

When I was a kid, one of my favorites toys were LEGO blocks. Thanks to a friend of the family who gave me, a bucket full of these famous blocks, as well as my very first ColecoVision system. Well, let’s get back to LEGOs! I could spend countless hours building houses, towers, vehicles and other things. Most of the blocks were from the Classic Space series and, as it often happens when you get used LEGO sets, the instructions booklets were missing. So, I spent all these years not knowing how to build space shuttles and lunar scooters. It was until recently, when I’ve decided to look for archives of instructions booklets, that I’ve found this website. This place contains scans of several building instructions from the Space series and others as well. I’ve decided to give a try on one of the easiest models and here’s how it came out:


The model as pictured on the booklet.


My version of the Space Shuttle.

Well, when I said I owned a used set, this also meant that some of the original pieces were missing. So, I had to improvise a little. Anyway, I had a lot of fun building this shuttle and I’m planning to build another model soon. I fell back in my childhood and that was great. End of line.

Dark side of the Triforce.

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

Justin Buonvino, best known as NES–still-the-best, is a DeviantArt user who makes astonishing 3-D interpretations of popular NES games scenes. Today, Justin decided to gave us these cool mashup wallpapers the Legend of Zelda and Pink Floyd‘s most popular album’s cover, The Dark Side of the Moon.


For those who don’t get it, instead of having Link holding the Triforce, like he does at the end of some of the games, he’s the triangle-prism from the famous Pink Floyd album cover. Well, now I know which wallpaper will be featured on my desktop, this week. End of line.
