Yes, I know, this blog is off to a slow start. This is only my second post and really it sucks. I haven’t really been inspired by anything to truly type in this blog but tonight, tonight was different.
I decided to type the word “strange” in Second Life places search. Yup, I sure did and the verdict was only 60 places appeared. Okay, so maybe I should be a little bit happier about this because I don’t have to go through page after page of stupid crap (or sex places).
Anyway, something really caught my eye, and I mean really did. A place called Halloween Town, and just by the name you should guess what this sim is based off of. Yup, you’re probably thinking “Oh! Tim Burton’s A Nightmare before Christmas!” If not you should be slapped a few times upside the head.
So, I took a little trip to this place to only find that visually the place was brilliant but otherwise pretty damn boring. Oh, and whatever music was playing was kind of stupid. Who wants to listen to some techno Goth crap (you will discover I hate most techno music) while walking around Halloween Town. The sim owners would have been better off playing “This is Halloween” over and over again (of course the Marilyn Manson version, hehehehe).
While on my visit, I also took snapshots (that’s what we call taking pictures in Second Life, just in case you didn’t know).
(This is when you first enter the sim, pretty neat, I had my setting up on high)
(Remember the toy duck from the movie? Pretty wicked huh?)
(Jack as Satan, I mean Santa)
(This is probably my favorite part of the whole sim is the fountain!)
(Yeah it was that boring)
(WTF??!?!?!)
(Okay now that's just silly)
(Jack again, near pose balls this time!)
(and Zero, we must not forget Zero!)
And there we have it, Halloween Town and all its glory (disappointing glory). Still a well put together sim although I feel more could have been added and some stuff could have been taken away but I guess beggars can’t be chooser right?
