    Sorry, it took so long to post, but I couldn’t find the song from the game I wanted…but this will do. This one is from Ninja Gaiden (a.k.a. Shadow Warriors).

    For lack of a better name, we’ll call it “Stage 1″.

    We cut the phones, now I have a standalone line…much cheaper than Wi-Fi.

    I know I haven’t posted an 8-Bits of Goodness for February – I wanted to post a song from a particular game – but I’ll have one up before the month is over.

    Compaq Presario

    The phone lines are coming out and I will be upgrading my DSL to Wi-Fi, so I’ll be temporarily offline. I’m not sure exactly how long, but it’s anywhere from – and I’m being conservative with my guess – tomorrow to a month.

    This 7 year old Compaq Presario 5000A is killing me! I can’t view too many flash enabled content, ’cause it will freeze the computer. Plus I hate Windows ME…*yuck*! I can’t wait to start using my Dell with a Wi-Fi card.

    ============

    UPDATE (Feb, 5): I’m using the Dell with Windows XP, now I’m waiting for the wireless adapter.

    The Nova Saints

    I could copy and paste this band’s info/bio/whatever, but I’d feel like I was cheating you. So, I’m going to write some info about this band…Ronie style.

    The Nova Saints hail from Hereford, but their sound is straight from Heaven. They are heavily influenced by the bands of Creation Records and you can tell. Listening to these guys will take you back to when ‘emo’ was just an underground scene, Home Improvement was in it’s second season and Pepsi came out with their version of ‘New Coke’, Crystal Pepsi.

    Their EP, The Draft, was produced by The Verve’s guitarist Nick McCabe. And the four songs of straight-up goodness are so good that it’s hard to believe that these gents are unsigned. Shame.

    I’m in a tired, cool kind of a mood. I feel like listening to an acoustic version of the Replacements’ “Can’t Hardly Wait” — an acoustic version that was recored in an echo chamber.

    What’s that, you say? There’s such a thing?! Suhweeeeet!!!!
