My wife was playing her 3DS game last night (some game with a bunch of 'boardwalk' minigames), and she was still playing it when I got up this morning.  She also damn-near threw her system countless times and cursed every five minutes.

I take full responsibility for that.

Whenever I hear a politician speaking strongly for or against abortion, all I hear is, "I have no idea how to fix the economy!"

Sounds like too much work to put into minecraft, I just like to stick with the basics.

Yup, the basics.

Oh God, Starcraft II: Heart of the swarm... I haven't bought it yet but I'm watching an Let's play.

Yes, I do that. But I am planning to get the game (and Wings of liberty) when I am in a better financial situation.

It is so very very much better than I thought it would be.

I thought that I would hate the Zerg campaign like I did in the first Starcraft. I thought I would be waiting for the last part and would just try to make it trhough this one but instead: the story is decent, the characters... Some I don't like that much but others are just awesome. Including the chemistry between some of them.

Haven't seen the end but so far this is a good game with good story and although I still dislike the whole "you must be connected to net in order to play singleplayer" I am willing to look over it if other qualities are good enough.
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!

Pffft, fire is overrated. A pack of inbred dogs is where it's at!

I think so. But I've also not been buying a lot from XBL that isn't DLC for Mass Effect. ahah.

Hahahaha, but...Rube Goldberg machines are fun!  Shit, I'm trying to automate an entire production line just to fuel a fusion reactor.  Which I think I might find a way to turn into power to create nuclear bombs.  Why?  Nuclear deterrents against those DAMNED creepers, of course!  Creepers, I am your god.  Do not anger me, or I will annihilate your entire race with nuclear fire.  I'll find a way to make a nuke launcher, damn it!

Though back onto Saints Row 4, I could easily see any #5 playing 4 off as shaundi's drug fueled hallucination.

Steam started something called Early Access today which allows you to buy games still in development.  I imagine this is probably due to the bitching about Towns some months ago.

Another, looser category for The WarZ to fail at entering.
Still can't think of a signature a year later.

Fuck that game.  Who thought WarZ was anything other then an alpha.  Unless the game is finished and what we got is what hammerpoint thinks is gold

After a considerable amount of trading in and bargaining, I have a Wii U now.

I also got an Unusual hat for my Heavy, so I'm happy.

I just clocked 100 hours in Railroad Tycoon 3. I feel like I've really accomplished something.
