- Excellent Food and Terrific ServiceFoodyVIPDined on 11/25/2014My husband and I are from Denver where there is a dearth of really good Mexican restaurants. After landing in San Antonio, we went directly to La Fonda. Wow, wonderfully tasty food and terrific margaritas. Everything was fresh and seasoned just right. We will return!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Can always depend on excellent service and foodTejawatersVIPDined on 11/21/2014Was able to get a reservation at 6:50 PM for 7 PM after I parked out side. Appreciate they do not just off available tables 15, 30 or more minutes ahead of time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent!francesca123Dined on 11/12/2014Delicious upscale Mexican, taking this food genre to a new level. Excellent service as well. A must when visiting San Antonio.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A night at the TheaterPeggyDined on 11/9/2014My husband and I enjoyed a fabulous meal before heading to the Majestic. A great night!Special Features:
- service lackingOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/8/2014The staff attempted to dissuade me from my of seativoiceseastng great table on the patio because the table had , four chairs and there were two of us. There were v other open tables. We were persistent and enjoyed the better table. Food was delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- An old favorite updated....Foodie1VIPDined on 11/4/2014La Fonda has a long history in San Antonio. The newest owners have managed to retain much of the old--decor, charm, ambience--while adding a more varied menu selection. Fortunately, the La Fonda Special plate continues the best of Mexican food in the tradition of Tex-Mex. From chips and salsa to more contemporary selections this restaurant delivers an excellent experience. Dining on the patio, when weather allows, is an added bonus.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always very goodJPfourDined on 11/2/2014Food is always very good and service is never lacking. Great place to take out-of-town guestsSpecial Features:
- Oustanding food and serviceDynamiteDined on 10/25/2014The food was outstanding; only get to San Antonio twice a year and this one of the restaurants I look forward to eating excellent Mexican food. The service was excellent. Ashley attended to our every need and very pleasant. Can't wait to return to San AntonioSpecial Features:
- Friday Evening DinnerTejawatersVIPDined on 10/24/2014We were able to make a reservation 30 minutes ahead. Everything was perfect, as usual.Special Features:
- Very good Mexican off beaten pathNukeitout1Dined on 10/24/2014Wife and I had reservations for outdoor patio. Gorgeous, under large trees and surrounded by lush vegetation. They had big fans running to cool the diners. These were, in our view, unnecessary, and the fan noise and breeze were distracting. Temperature was 80 degrees in late October. Wife ordered fish dish, which she said was excellent. She out-ordered me, since I went with enchiladas that were good but not extraordinary. Chips looked home-made, and they and the salsa were excellent. A couple of miles north of downtown/Riverwalk district, and worth the trip.Special Features:
- Just as good, 70 years later!Traveler5708Dined on 10/24/2014LA FONDA is still the nicest and best Mexican restaurant in San Antonio. My wife, who first knew and liked LA FONDA in the 40's, introduced me to it in the 50's and we still schedule at least one meal there whenever we visit San Antonio, a long way from our home in Virginia!TravelerSpecial Features:
- Wonderful experiencefoodycatVIPDined on 10/23/2014We were celebrating 3 birthdays in our group of 6 and requested outside. The patio is moderate sized but very lovely and private. The little nuts/acorn that fell from the above trees hurt when they hit me (4 times) but actually became a joke between all of us and had us laughing when someone was next to get it. The menu combined the usual fav's with some interesting choices. I had the combo of marinated rib eye and seafood enchilada. The steak was OUTSTANDING, the seafood was good but not great. Margarita's were super good, salsa fresh and tasty, the special empanada's yummy. It was probably the best evening of our 5 day trip. We were treated to one piece of their tres leaches cake for the birthday girls, very yummy.Special Features:
- Not your average Tex-Mex RestaurantMichaelVIPDined on 10/21/2014La Fonda occupies a redone home in a nice residential district 10 minutes by car from the River Walk area. Well worth the drive. Lovely outdoor seating area; helpful, attentive service. But be warned -- this isn't Tex-Mex, but rather an imaginative take on Mexican food in general. Unusual dishes (a special appetizer the night we went was blue crab & Guacamole in small fried trumpets). Quality is great, but the variety and taste may not be what the average diner is looking for. If you are tired of the same old and looking to try something new (or if you are familiar with Mexican cooking and still looking for something new) you'll like La Fonda.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Superb brunch!TexasSourdoughVIPDined on 10/19/2014Met friends for Sunday brunch. Sat on patio. Busy but not crowded. The food was simply superb - Eggs Benedict over pulled pork and gorditas and an omelette with shrimp were both divine. Highly recommended.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Mexican food I have ever hadjapickarDined on 10/17/2014Excellent dining experience from appetizer to dessert. The la fonda layered dip is just awesome, steak fajitas were melt in your mouth tender, and the pumpkin flan was great as well. Would highly recommend this place to others.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Favorite78212PJDined on 10/17/2014There is no better patio dining than La Fonda on Main.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great San Antonio introduction!WandererVIPDined on 10/17/2014We had just arrived in town and La Fonda was on the list of "must go" places suggested to us. We were impressed! The receptionist suggested outside seating, which was outstanding ... on the verandah, beneath the limbs of one of the huge trees, enjoying the warm evening. Our server was helpful, guiding us through the dishes and checking in with us throughout the meal. We didn't feel rushed and sat back to enjoy the experience plus the ambiance of a great restaurant in a great city ... bravo!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing lamb enchiladas!LoveTexasFoodDined on 10/11/2014Someone told me that LaFonda's good days were over, but I went anyway when I was in San Antonio visiting for a weekend. I'm so glad that I decided to go ahead! The food was delicious! We all especially loved the chips (not your usual Mexican restaurant chips!), the lamb enchiladas, and the margaritas (on the rocks with top shelf tequila). If I go back to San Antonio, I'm going to make sure that I go to LaFonda for dinner and I think that my friends will agree.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not the usualOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 10/10/2014The reservation was not quite as helpful as hoped. There was a wedding rehearsal dinner in the other part of the restaurant. The service was not great. Had to ask for water, never received the tortillas/chips were late to the table. They seemed busier than they could handle.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent service and Great food!Geo14Dined on 10/10/2014Great place to take out of town guests. This time food was exceptional and service was over the top. La Fonda on Main rarely disappoints.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The legend of LaFonda lives onoldmanbellVIPDined on 10/10/2014One can be thankful that some things continue and continue to be the best. LaFonda was the best sixty years ago and continues today. It has changed a little with the times, but the atmosphere and the service remain top notch. Using Open Table assures planning for the "rest of the evening", and I appreciate that, as well. And if you're in doubt about what to order.... "old number 7" will never disappoint.Special Features:
- Great Mexican food on MainDrewsDined on 10/10/2014La Fonda has enough range on the menu to satisfy anyone; we had enchiladas, steak fajitas (thick, juicy, and delicious), and fish tacos. We would go more often if they had more variety in the seafood on the menu; the usual Veracruz style and La Playa style were the only choices. What we had was perfect. When we left for the Playhouse at 7, it was packed and people lined up out the door. Prices are reasonable.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not to be missed in San AntonioGeorgiaGirlVIPDined on 10/8/2014This historic restaurant has kept up with the times, and is one of the best places to dine in San Antonio. The atmosphere is fabulous, as is the food!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Superb mexican diningBilyuDined on 10/5/2014This mexican restaurant was the overall favorite of a recent trip by me and my wife to San Antonio. We had determined to eat almost exclusively Mexican or Tex-Mex on this five day trip. We dined at two other Mexican restaurants, both of which were memorable, but La Fonda on Main rated a return visit. Though relatively quiet, that quietness combined with the traditional adobe and wood to create a very enjoyable atmosphere. The food was excellent, fairly traditional tex-mex but a step up in quality. Best of all was the service. Our service person the first night, David, was superbly informed as to the ingredients and preparation of each dish, and was helpful to a fault. We highly recommend this experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great experiance like always.AcuribeDined on 10/4/2014My family and I have been eating at La Fonda on main for years and they have always had great service and food. Their drinks are reasonable our favorite is the jalapeño magarita.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Can't wait to go backmightymouseDined on 10/4/2014Mexican food that's fresh and inventive, on a beautiful patio.Special Features:
- Very overpricedOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 10/1/2014I ordered a lunchtime Cobb salad and glass of iced tea. For San Antonio, $ 18.00 is very pricey. I have had Cobb salads at Alamo Cafe that would put the one I had to shame. Not only was the Cobb overpriced, it was way undersized. The menu description says there is chicken in the salad. Really? 6 half-inch cubes of chicken does nt make it.
- La Fondamikey43040Dined on 9/29/2014We went to La Fonda on a Trip Advisor recommendation and boy we were not disappointed. Nick our waiter was more than gracious and helpful. Not only did he point out La Fonda specialties on the menu making recommendations he provided us with a lovely conversation on San Antonio and what the city has to offer. The food was outstanding. If you in for a margarita try the cactus pear very good. We look forward to returning to San Antonio and going to La Fonda again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Wonderful evening in San AntonioTleeeeeDined on 9/14/2014We just loved this place. The atmosphere is fabulous, the architecture is special and the food and service was excellent. Diverse menu with fair prices and a beautiful courtyard. Our waiter Zeke was very professional and knowledgeable about the menu and how to serve. I enjoyed a chorizo and potato soup and the house salad and my husband ordered and loved "The Old # 7" We also had a fried cheese plate that was neither greasy nor breaded. The dipping sauce that went with it was delicious. Great margaritas and art on the walls. Comfortablke chairs and tables and plenty of free parking in a lot across the street.Special Features:

- jamieSATXDined on 9/12/2014Wonderful server and great food -- everything was wonderful except for our arrival. We made a reservation on Open Table at 7:25 pm for a table at 7:45 pm. When we arrived, I said "we just made a reservation on Open Table." The host responded that we should never say that, because when we say that we **just** made a reservation, they can put us to the back of the line and not honor the reservation. That seems like such a bizarre business practice. Why allow people to make reservations if when you show up, you threaten to not honor them? And why does the restaurant keep taking reservations if there are already people waiting? We were seated very promptly and everything else was great, but the interactions we had with the host were bizarre.Special Features:

- Quality food and drinksdiningdivaDined on 9/6/2014I would put great for dining outside, but maybe not during the hot summer time. I had the special steak dish for the evening and it was the most tender steak with great flavor. Great quality food and representation. I highly recommend La Fonda for special occasions and gatherings. A bit pricey, but would go again for a great meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Western expats in UAE spend most on luxurious lifestyle
In comparison to Singapore and Hong Kong, western expats in the UAE are ready to spend more on luxurious lifestyle choices, and only a few seek independent financial advice, a new survey has found.
About 97 percent of the UAE-based western expat spend majority of their disposable income on luxurious life style, in comparison to just 51 percent in Singapore and 47 percent in Hong Kong. However, 94 percent of them, did agree that they also keep away some of that income for investment and savings, revealed the latest survey conducted by Standard Life International, together with Insight Discovery.
But the numbers of expats seeking advice from independent financial advisers were just 31 percent in the UAE, in comparison to 49 percent in Singapore and 53 percent in Hong Kong.
In comparison to 71 percent of western expats in Hong Kong investing in equities, only 9 percent in UAE did the same. But, 70 percent of UAE group said they do invest in mutual funds and 46 percent said they invest their disposable income in long-term investment plans. About 47 percent said they put away part of their income towards retirement plans.
There is both good and bad news when it comes to UAE western expats. The good news is that a high percentage of population in the survey is saving money on regular basis, while a higher percentage is saving for their long-term future and particularly for their retirement. As for bad aspect, only a low percentage is consulting independent financial advice.
About 80 percent of the respondents to the survey in the UAE were aged below 45.

Saints edge Eagles in NFC Wild Card game
The New Orleans Saints finally came up with the right plan for outdoor playoff football in cold weather. It got them their first postseason road victory.
Shayne Graham's 32-yard field goal, the fourth Saturday night for the recent addition to the team, won it on the final play, 26-24 over the Philadelphia Eagles. Drew Brees, who threw for a touchdown and guided the 34-yard drive to the winning kick, didn't need to be a big star because the Saints' running game and defense - along with Graham's leg - provided the heroics.
"It's just, man, believing in each other, ignoring what everyone else has to say," Brees said.
New Orleans (12-5) will play at NFC top-seed Seattle next Saturday. The Saints lost there 34-7 in the regular season.
"It's loud, it's crazy, they've got a good thing going there," Brees said of the next challenge.
Graham, signed by the Saints just over two weeks ago to replace long-time kicker Garrett Hartley, also connected from 36, 46 and 35 yards.
Brees threw for a touchdown, Mark Ingram rushed for 97 yards and another score, and the Saints' defense slowed Chip Kelly's up-tempo offense just enough. New Orleans had been 0-5 in postseason games outside of the Big Easy since entering the league in 1967.
Philadelphia wound up 10-7 in Kelly's first year as coach. He guided them from worst to first in the NFC East, but they were only 4-5 at home.
Nick Foles hit rookie Zach Ertz for a 3-yard touchdown with 4:54 remaining as Philadelphia rallied from a 13-point deficit to take a one-point lead. But Darren Sproles had a 39-yard kickoff return and a horse-collar tackle brought New Orleans to the Philadelphia 48. Using mostly runs, the Saints ate up the clock and set up Graham's winner.

is 40 watts loud enuff to gig

It depends. I've gigged with 30 watts but it was a Matchless dc30. I've also miked a champ. My Markv boogie can do just about any gig. You just have to experiment but if you don't have time or its a new stage it helps to have an amp that can fit into many situations.
I'd say in general 40 watts is enough but sometimes it isn't. And when it isn't life can suck.

Convenient, close to what we needed to be close to. Price OK, but should have handled change in stay triggering a discount better. Good to be able to cook in room kitchen.
Shower drain was clogged. Water stopped up almost immediately upon running water. Acts like typical hair/soap clog. No way cleaning staff should have ever missed this if they run water to rinse the tub. Booked us in room across from elevator so we could clearly hear the elevator dings during the early morning hours (even though most of our floor was unoccupied).
Portland location was overbooked. Sent us to Crossroads at Salem. Room was dirty. Carpet was nasty. I am almost 70. Won't stay that place again ever.

With the update to OASIS-C1 the WOCN Society has a new guideline, Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nurses Society's Guidance on OASIS-C1 Integumentary Items: Best Practice for Clinicians.
OASIS-C1 is a modification to the Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS) that Home Health Agencies must collect in order to participate in the Medicare program. This is the second update of the OASIS since it was implemented in 2000.
This update includes changes to prepare for ICD-10 implementation in 2014. The system for wound classification uses terms that lack universal definition and clinicians have verbalized concerns that they may be interpreting these terms incorrectly. The WOCN Society has therefore developed the following guidelines for the classification of wounds. These items were developed by consensus among the WOCN Society panel of content experts.

NEW YORK Royal Dutch Shell Plc is planning to reduce its onshore drill spending in the United States by 20 percent in 2014, but remains bullish on liquids-rich shales, deepwater and heavy oil.
We are taking stock of our investment opportunities and operating positions. ... This approach is driving hard choices on todays asset base, new opportunities and disposal plans, where we have recently announced exits from Australia and Italy downstream, Wheatstone liquefied natural gas (LNG) in Australia and U.S. gas-to-liquids, chief executive officer Ben van Beurden said in a statement.
Onshore investments with the lowest-cost gas acreage and the best integration potential will be favored, The Hague, Netherlands-based Shell said.
The move comes after profitability in the companys upstream Americas segment was crimped by losses in resources plays such as shales in 2013, the company said, but industry analysts cautioned against interpreting Shells action as indicative of a broader trend.
Overall, I havent seen projections of a reduction in spending, so this probably has more to do with what their prospects are rather than whats going on in the industry as a whole, Kurt Minnich, manager of Tulsa, Okla.-based Pipe Logix LLC, told AMM.
Houston-based pipemaker TMK Ipsco recently signed two long-term agreements to supply Shell with seamless and welded oil country tubular goods, line pipe and premium connections for onshore and offshore applications (amm.com, Jan. 22).

'Redistricting' Considered for Liver Donor Maps
If it were up to him, Mulligan says he'd like to see a nationally coordinated allocation plan for donated livers in place within the next few months. "But realistically, I would like to see the first step of Phase 1 of a redistricting plan in place and out for public comment and going forward with board approval for implementation within the next two years," he says. "That is going to be a bold undertaking, but that is what we are trying to achieve. It may take longer, but I am going to do everything possible to make it as short a time as possible as I can."
If the coordinated effort works for donated livers, Mulligan says it could serve as a distribution model for other donated organs, which often have their own unique distribution networks.
"If this is successful in liver [allocations] we will need to study to see if there is something we can do to improve the way hearts are distributed, because they do a whole different system," he says. "They are distributed based on circle distribution from each donor hospital, how many hundreds of miles they go out and how sick they are. We would look to applying these types of mathematical models to all organs and maybe adjust the models to factors that are necessary for each of these organs to make the process better."

Award-Winning Documentary BREAKING THROUGH Comes to DVD/VOD Today
Breaking Glass Pictures and QC Cinema are proud to present the award-winning documentary Breaking Through on DVD and cable (Comcast, Time Warner, Verizon) and Internet VOD (iTunes) today, June 3, 2014. A documentary about people, pride and power, Breaking Through features several openly LGBT elected officials and their journeys from self-doubt to triumph. The Special Edition DVD of Breaking Through (SRP $19.99) will include an extended director's cut, the festival cut, a music video and a featurette on the filmmaker's journey.
Directed by Cindy L. Abel, Breaking Through profiles elected officials who represent "firsts" in their respective positions. Featured officials include Tammy Baldwin, the first openly gay U.S. Senator in history, Alex Wan, the first gay man to serve on the Atlanta City Council, and Kathy Webb, the first openly gay Arkansas State Representative. The documentary reveals their past struggled with poverty, bullying and religious expectations, in addition to their sexual orientation and gender identity.
"We made Breaking Through to encourage people who are wondering if their life is worth living," said director Cindy L. Abel. "Now it is accessible to all those that want to see real-life examples of overcoming obstacles and living authentic, fulfilled lives. I'm thrilled these surprisingly vulnerable, deeply personal stories will be shared with a national audience." Breaking Through is director Cindy L. Abel's first full-length documentary. Abel formed Atlantis Moon Productions in 2007 to create film-related projects that impact popular culture. Abel also directed shorts Disturb The Universe and Back to Salem.
Praised by The Huffington Post as "a rich, fast-paced, spelling binding film," Breaking Through has been a hit at festivals nationwide, including Philadelphia QFest, Sidewalk, Little Rock, San Diego, Oxford, Out on Film and the Miami Gay and Lesbian film festivals. Breaking Through was awarded a Remi at WorldFest Houston and the Audience Award at QFest Ft Worth, and was a jury award finalist at Moondance Film Festival.
Founded in 2009 by Rich Wolff and Richard Ross, Breaking Glass Pictures is a
Philadelphia-based film distributor. With sister labels Vicious Circle Films and QC Cinema, Breaking Glass Pictures has released over 200 films to date.

KTSM should have reported that the identity of the person who reported drugs was being withheld to protect her. I want you to take responsibility when you have her demise to report in relation to this story. If you don't have one, then, you need a policy that makes it your responsibility to protect informants' identity. Really KTSM? REALLY?

Many of us possess lamps in our homes yet precisely how many of us in fact pay attention to these kinds of? Because they've been section of the daily life from the time we all were created, many of us tend to accumulate illumination regarding of course. Could you think about if you failed to have just about any lights in the home? It could be very difficult to operate, to read, to nibble on or speak to other folks. The truth is, it will likely be very hard to complete just about anything. Just about the most typical kinds of residence lights could be the incandescent light bulb, any technology conceived around 100 rice. Your downside of such bulbs can be they may have a quick life along with consume lots of electrical energy.
The actual incandescent bulb is actually gradually staying exchanged simply by new technological innovation including Small Neon Lamps as well as Gentle Emitting Diodes (BROUGHT). The main advantage of this specific new technologies is actually the table lamps have a lengthier lifestyle and are a lot more power efficient. This information will look at led dimmer.
LED limit lamps are generally becoming a lot more well-known and also a lot more residences the world over get changed their particular standard ceiling bulbs using this type of fairly brand-new technological innovation. There are many causes of adding these at your residence yet one of the main causes which convince property owners is the cosmetic price it enhances a room. That they are available in various types, the most common getting the actual recessed lower light that will fits eliminate towards the threshold. Your lighting they give off can be very enjoyable and also increase disposition to the space. Because of their longevity they're not going to have to have updating for many years ahead.
Though first cost associated with setting up LED lights can be reasonably large, the savings about electricity bills may outweigh this kind of.

Dec 1, 2010Super Meat Boy revives the painful old days of restricted technology that forced game developers to make unintuitive and difficult games to make their products last longer. On top of that, it adds silly "features", which might as well be called gimmicks for what they're worth, such as "boss battles" and extra playable characters. The boss battles are nothing more than a regular level with a big object following the character, while extra characters work the exact same way as Meat Boy, with silly, gimmicky "abilities" that nobody will ever use, at the cost of speed.
But unsatisfied with the state of their game, Team Meat has also shipped the game on PC without testing it on different configurations, resulting in missing graphics elements, glitches everywhere, frequent crashes and a lack of support for direct input controllers. Talk about a lack of polish.
The rest of the game consists of jumping, running and avoiding saws. and holes. That's basically it. Story? No big deal, let's just make a short animation at the beginning of the game and call it a day.
There's also the fact that the main character is a piece of meat trying to save a girl made from bandages from a fetus in a jar in a suit. Tasteless. Also reminds me of Super Mario. This game is original, too.
I added two points to it for tricking me into buying it in the first place. But ultimately, Super Meat Boy is an incredibly disappointing "game" (or should I call it a "chore"?).… Expand
Jun 17, 2011There is an easy mistake to make when making a game to be 'challenging' unfortunatly team meat made this mistake. The games difficulty is definitly for the masochists, which is a good thing, because i love platformers, and im something of a masochist myself. however i know that this game will not appeal to the masses. However even i cant take the pain of laggy controls, jumpy graphics, and all together glitchyness.
To this day this problem occurs! its been a while since the game was released, so why am i still having these problems?
I know not everyone is having the problems im having, but the game should run perfectly on ALL hardware out thereat this stage, its nothing short of a flash game really...
the proof: cheap laptop with intel graphics accelerator on-board, celeron processor and 1GB ram runs perfectly...
laptop with ati radeon 3200 graphics, amd athlon x2 processor and 3gb ram, buggy as hell, and completely unplayable!..
my gaming rig with ati radeon HD 5770, amd athlon II x4 and 4gb ram, laggy and buggy, pretty much unplayable!
why is it that on a rig where i can play crysis on high settings with 40-60fps, i cant get 15fps on a 2d retro-esque game?
the answer: bad QM and lazy devs
there have been numerous updates to the game and still no fix for me!
On top of all that this game is nothing like the classics that we grew up with, anyone who says it is obviously didnt grow up with the classics, you see on the NES the controls responded when you input something with less than a 1 second delay… Expand
Jan 6, 2011Whoever said this game is fun is a masochist. It's fun if you like replaying the same bloody level 40 times because there's no way to beat it aside from trial and error and mind-numbing memorization of button sequences until you could play the level blind-folded. Oldschool my @$$. What is up with people's obsession with "oldschool" anyway? Oldschool sucked. Mario sucked ... sure, it was great at the time, because *there was nothing else.* While I'm at it, guess what else? Goldeneye sucks too. It's not "the greatest FPS of all time." Try playing it on an HDTV? It looks like garbage and it controls even worse. It was just the best of what was available. People's over-bloated infatuation with nostalgia is beyond puzzling. People always want to think "the good old days" were better. Really? In the "good old days" people used to die from diarrhea. The "good old days" blew. This blows. Stop pretending it's awesome just because it references gaming in the 80s...… Expand
Apr 18, 2011I was very kindly gifted SMB on Steam by a friend so I had no reason not to like this game, I paid nothing for it and I'm a big fan of platformers dating back to the original two Oddworld titles.
My first problems arose with the game when it very rudely tells you to use a gamepad rather than a keyboard. PC games are designed for PC and therefore should always play better with a keyboard+mouse with a gamepad being a player preference on some titles.
The game is literally IMPOSSIBLE with a keyboard so it loses points for forcing you to own a gamepad and even then it didn't recognise my PS3 controller and struggled to register my 360 controller.
The game takes place in several stages such as a Forest and a Hospital. Sadly you see little of these good tilesets as most of the game takes place in subterranean passageways.
However now we come to the games big problem, the difficulty. This is a game that tries to hard to be hard. The game certainly is not hard but merely frustrating. You shouldn't have to repeat a stage over and over to complete it using trial and error rather than observation and technique. A good platformer is hard due to it being complex and clever, SMB is hard due to frustrating controls and enemy placements.
I liked the soundtrack but sadly it does little to save the game, I really wanted to like SMB but due to the controls and the frustrating nature of the game it comes off as a rather bland and outdated platformer.
If a Platformer fan is considering getting SMB I would recommend instead the free N-Game or the two excellent Oddworld platformers which are available through Steam.… Expand
Jun 2, 2014I'd been meaning to pick up Super Meat Boy for a while so when I saw it cheap in the Steam sales I naturally decided to download it. For those that don't know Super Meat Boy is a difficult, fast paced, 2D platformer that challenges the player to complete a series of short levels in order to reach the goal (The goal being Super Meat Boy's girlfriend) each time.
My first impressions were that the controls, particularly for the vital skill of wall jumping, weren't exactly intuitive and made even the most basic of levels more complicated than they would otherwise be. Hoping that a bit of practice would help I played through a good few levels but quickly became frustrated at dying over and over again as a result of struggling with the controls. Perhaps I gave up too quickly but I play video games for enjoyment (and a decent challenge can be part of that) and I simply didn't enjoy Super Meat Boy.… Expand
The game-play in Super Meat Boy deserves a solid 8. But I'm going to give it a 4 anyway. Why? Because the PC port feels horribly unpolished.
An XBox 360 controller is (understandably) the recommended method of controlling Meat Buy. But does a it work out the box? No. The buttons mapping is completely mangled with no way of reconfiguring in-game. So fixing up the input config file I eventually got the stage controls to work but the menus are still buggered.
Whatever, I can deal with that; except that there are parts of the menu that are unreachable with a mangle button setup. Oops. Fortunately having done a bit of game-dev specifically controller input I got the feeling that it was a Human Interface Device gone wrong. Fine, found it and removed it from the Device manager and everything worked.
I should be happy. No, I've spent my time fixing issues the developers should have dealt with. Added to the controller woes: SMB does not start on some machines (screen remains black) and the graphics are messed up on others (mostly black textures) making it unplayable.
A good concept? Yes. A good implementation? No.… Collapse
Aug 12, 2012This game pretty much epitomizes everything that is wrong with video game development today. There is only frustration to be found here. When people talk about video games making kids dumber they are talking about games like this.
May 13, 2012Yes, that's a true, honest platformer game, but come on... "game of the year", "biggest surprise", "awesomeness" and "charm", "a story so moving", "epic boss fights"??? Perhaps I've bought another Meat Boy, the one with a tasteless story and nothing-special-gameplay. As for the "tough as nails platformer difficulty" idea itself - didn't we have IWBTG since 2007 or something like that? I definitely don't understand what all the hype about Meat Boy game is about.… Expand
Dec 17, 2012Another stupidly hard "indie" platformer. Ugly, ridiculously hard and unfun, shoehorned boss battles, stupid "meme" garbage and poor PC support. The only positive thing I can think to say about it is it has a lot of levels but I don't want to play them. You'd have to be a real masochist to play this trash; there are better platformers out there that you haven't played yet, I guarantee it.
Dec 28, 2012This game certainly takes a lot from it's newgrounds origins; and not in the good way, so there's occasionally good ideas that could have gone somewhere in the direction of interesting, the devs had neither the intelligence nor the technical skill to pull it off. For all the hype I'd heard about its controls, I found them to be nearly unusable (and by the way; insulting PC gamers who don't own a XBox 360 controller? real grown up, Team Meat), if there's the slightest clue that you might be near a wall, the game will interpret every action you take as something to do with wall jumping. The levels are also badly designed: the platforms are always the exact distance apart to make the timings of the dash and jump buttons incredibly fiddly, destroying any flow the level had, and the graphical design on the level is just plain idiotic, as pretty much everything is the same colour on each stage, so the "hectic pace" is slowed down by you squinting at the screen to see if you're next to a crumbling block or a sawblade launcher… Expand
Nov 1, 2013This game relies solely on luck. I'm only playing it to get the achievements; otherwise, I wouldn't waste my time. Leaderboards are a joke, as players have found ways to beat levels in 0.00 seconds. This game was also clearly made for the Xbox as some menu buttons don't even work (space bar to accept option changes is completely unresponsive, for example) and Xbox controls are shown in a few areas. I'm not having any fun playing this game anymore—it's more of an assignment now.… Expand
Jun 16, 2013Nice atmospheric fast game, but too buggy (Linux version from Humble Bundle seems like stable, but Windows version from steam is full of bugs). It's annoying when game freezes or crashes on "hot" moment. And it makes me angry, when saves are broken. Again.
Jul 29, 2013perfect for the masochist 12 year old. Difficult for the sake of being difficult, unintuitive controls (on top of that insults non-gamepad users).
There's little variation in game play, obstacles, etc. and the story is cookie cutter.
Still feels like a flash game.
Aug 20, 2013A platformer that breaks rule number one for it's genre and of course I mean DON'T MASSACRE THE CONTROLS! On top of the god awful control scheme the game is just boring. They wanna be like retro platformers but they failed to be even as interesting as the original Super Mario Bros. It's sad because I absolutely loved the Binding of Isaac.
Nov 5, 2013Someone in the reviews actually said this game is "fair". They ought to be a politician. Anyways, Super Meat Boy. It's another faux-retro hardcore platformer because you know, we're in short supply of THOSE.
First thing you'll notice when you power it up is that it has messages like "Anyone who says Keyboard is better than controller get shot in the face", because you know: showing contempt for your audience gets you a 90 on Metacritic. Good.
The next thing you'll notice is that "indie sense of humor" which consists of toilet jokes and references. Always makes me laugh when nerds slam Epic Movie (which don't be confused, is awful) for "only making references" then turn around and praise things like Scott Pilgrim and Super Meat Boy for the same thing because it references things they like. But anyways, it's not funny, but most indie games aren't.
Super Meat Boy's graphics are awful. It's literally a Flash game. Anyone could code it and put it up on Newgrounds for free. Also, since it's coded in flash, it's inconsistent. Here's an example of why the programming in Super Meat Boy is crap: There's a custom level hub (also janked) which includes "auto boy" levels, where the intent is to stand still and not move and the level architecture will carry you to the goal automatically, kind of like a "DDA" map in N (An example of a hardcore platformer done... I wouldn't say "right", but at least "better"). The problem? The results are completely random if you'll make it or not because Flash is more unstable than Syd Barrett. Also, glad to see that Edmund McMllen includes characters from all the other bad indie games (Minecraft, VVVVVV, I Wanna Be The Guy, Braid, etc). I love indie circlejerks. Game sucks. Never play it. Make Edmund McMillen get a real job. 1/10 because it has good music… Expand
Jan 27, 2014One of the worst games I've ever played, very stupid, without humor, you only need to click buttons quickly and aptly. Game is difficult but success depends on luck because beyond stupid clicking the game has nothing to offer. I don't recommend it unless you have nothing to do, and nerves of steel. I bought it for a little more than 1€ so it isn't a tragedy, according to me this is the real value of this ****… Expand

Sarasota National Cemetery breaks ground on new amphitheater
Date: December 6, 2012
by: Nick Friedman | Community Editor
The Sarasota National Cemetery will be the recipient of a significant enhancement during the course of the next year.
The Patterson Foundation, in partnership with the National Cemetery Administration, broke ground on a new ceremonial amphitheater Monday, Dec. 3.
The project, dubbed the Patriot Plaza, was conceived as part of the foundation's Legacy Initiative and was intended to enhance the cemetery and honor the service of veterans.
The $8 million amphitheater, which is fully funded by the Patterson Foundation, is anticipated for dedication in spring 2014. The project represents the first time the National Cemetery Administration has partnered with a private foundation for an enhancement to a national cemetery of this magnitude.
"We wanted to honor the Patterson Foundation's rich history of military service," said Debra Jacobs, executive director. "We wanted to look at the philanthropic opportunities available to us and see what wasn't being done."
When the cemetery was dedicated in 2008, more than 3,000 people attended, and Jacobs says there was a noticeable lack of shade and seating, and she saw an opportunity for enhancement.
In 2010, the Patterson Foundation began working with the NCA on the design and construction of a ceremonial amphitheater to fulfill this need. Jacobs hopes the project will set an example for philanthropy on a national level.
"The idea was enthusiastically received," she says. "We wanted to capture our journey and the way we partnered, so that we could share it with the other 130 national cemeteries, which might also want to make enhancements. A national cemetery isn't always the first thing people think of when they consider philanthropic opportunities."
The 1.83-acre facility will provide covered seating for 2,800 people and will offer a location for larger ceremonies and military holidays. Other features include a 20,800-square-foot glass covering, 48,000 square feet of walkways and gathering areas and commissioned artwork, to be announced in January, which will be both commemorative and educational.
The NCA is leasing the plot of land to the Patterson Foundation, which will then donate it back upon the project's completion, and an endowment fund will also be put in place to fund replacement maintenance in the future.
"We view this as a gift that will become a treasure in the region," says Jacobs. "It will be a project that will honor veterans, inspire patriotism and embrace freedom. Cemeteries are a final resting place, but they're also a place for the living, and the Patriot Plaza will offer a place for added reflection."
