FFVII:AC on BD! ZOMGBBQ!

So I guess now is as good a time as any to let you know I'm not strictly a tech nerd; I also love a lot of other nerdy things (video games, comic books, anime, you get the idea). So for this post I have decided to combine two of my nerd loves: technology and video games. How can you go wrong with a combo like that!? It's like swirling chocolate and vanilla ice cream together: good things are bound to happen. (Mmm... I love me some ice cream...)

You know how you can tell when nerds are really excited? We start spewing long strings of acronyms and jargon. Example: "Dude, I just bought 2, 2gig sticks of PC1066 for my new quad-SLI, C2D machine.". This incidentaly drives my family and friends insane... but I digress. My point is that from the title of this post you should be able to tell that this is a big deal!

So without further ado, I give you: Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children ... wait for it... ON BLU-RAY!!!













Oh yeah... that just happened.

(If you pooped yourself from sheer excitement, then you are breifly excused so you can go "freshen up", but hurry back.)

That's right kiddies, the awesomeness that is Advent Children can now be uploaded into your grey matter in glorious high definition. And as if that wasn't enough, they've added 26 more minutes to flesh out the story. It's going for 22 bucks on Amazon and I am seriously thinking about selling and organ so I can afford to buy it (I'm broke OK, back off. What I do with my body is none of your business). If you want to read more details and see some screen shots, check out the write up on blu-ray.com:

If you haven't seen this movie yet, then: (A) shame on you! Go put your not-quite-nerdy-enough nose in the corner, and (B) BUY IT!!! If you are even half as enchanted with the world of FFVII as I am, it'll knock you right off your chocobo. Seriously, this one is a no-brainer.

So... anyone interested in owning an extra kidney :-D
