I almost bought Bravely Default for download play today, before realising I was almost out of memory on my 2GB SD card. I decided I should probably google and find out how big the game was. It's, uh, about 3.5GB on it's own (25K blocks). So yeah, I might just wait until I can get a physical copy (or a bigger SD card...).

Also this doesn't even consider the download time. My biggest game is about 4.4K blocks and I think took well over an hour, probably closer to two, to download. So this would likely take the best part of an afternoon.

But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

I've been watching the new Cosmos series each week and enjoying it, but last night's episode seemed rather off the mark in its discussion of black holes.

Is this good?
Just about to start over here in the uk

The first two episodes were quite good.  I haven't had the chance to watch Eps 3 and 4.

Episode 3 is my favorite thus far.  My biggest complaint about Episode 4 is that they made it seem like crossing the event horizon of a black hole is some dramatic and sudden experience.  I don't know of a single physicist who believes that.  Also, there was some rather wild speculation of what is across the black hole.  There is already so much interesting stuff to say about black holes with better established physics.

I finally got a chance to watch Episode 3 tonight.

I want to reach through my screen and nut-punch Alan Silvestri and the entire sound-editing crew.  Turn the damned music down, if I want soaring music with my space I'll go watch Wrath of Khan again.

Yeah, do you have trouble hearing all the spoken words?  I have to turn the TV up to hear everything clearly, but then the background sound/music dominates and is too loud at other times. 

I have a similar problem with Hannibal, and some other TV shows.  I thought maybe it was just my TV or the settings, but I'm having a hard time hearing the spoken word clearly in Cosmos and other shows.

Hmm, I didn't notice any sound issues.  I don't have a television, so I watch on hulu with my headphones.  I'm already used to adjusting the volume on my laptop every time I watch a video.

It's a free update that adds a lot more content and has a lot of UI improvements.
Here's the trailer they released before the game

Also.... Grammar (or possibly spelling, dependant on what they were actually trying to say)

Unless of course there is a country ruled by King Collin the first.
