Downloaded Perfect Dark for the 360 since my N64 broke and I lost the game during my last move.  Last time, my now ex unlocked everything, but now I have to do it myself, and it's frustrating as hell.  Really?  Bots walk right through balls of fire and shoot me from across the room with pistols?  UGH!  I wish there was an easy way to unlock all the weapons.

A couple of good (IMO) articles about Diablo 3.

Based on the above and other stuff I've heard, I'm quite happy I didn't buy the game.

It's kinda funny, was discussing this last night.

Take a look on steam, and see how many people finshed the first level of a game. I mean Civ 5, 15% of those who own it haven't settled a second city. Barely over half have completed the most popular civic track, another key part of the game, something that should happen in the first half of one, if not earlier. A quarter have won a standard game.

People just don't play through things.

I WANT THAT FUCKING FLAMETHROWER!

Knowing Valve, that flamethrower WILL be released.

And it'll set opponents on... joy?

I dunno, what will it do?

I'm very content because I just got Tales of Monkey Island from GOG for 60% off. I can't wait to complete it.
Guys, this is getting creepy. Can we talk about cannibalism instead?

So fellow Minecraft players, any of you used the Tekkit mod pack? I'm strongly considering installing it, simply because it looks fucking amazing. Is it really as good as it looks?

I bought the first two parts of "On the rain slick precipice." The Penny arcade game series and although the games were really short I did enjoy them. (Besides they are really REALLY cheap games so I can't really complain about the shortness.)

I'm probably gonna get the third one as well.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!
