Bah, you rich kids and your NES. My first console was a Famicom clone. Also my last console, not counting handhelds and PC.

[Art Vandelay]

I believe my first console was the N64. Though it's hardly the first platform I regularly played games on. That honour goes to DOS.

[Shane for Wax]

My first console was the NES, I believe.

Also, I finally got the newest Tomb Raider. It's pretty nice so far. Granted I'm not far into the game itself yet.

If anyone was dissappointed with Civ 5 back when it came out, once you toss on the two expansions it's become a rather wicked game. Trade actually requires a bit of thought, and going to war with the wrong person can utterly hose you. Religion can cause you to dominate the world(Something I do quite a bit for an atheist, the stuff has plenty of use if you're in control). Oh, and they unfucked the combat quite a bit in the first expansion.

Gold upgrade for civ V is only 5 dollars

Speaking of civ, I apparently have two copies of 4 randomly appearing in my inventory. I have disks for the game and it's expansions so I don't really need either of them. If anyone wants them let me know, but they don't include the expansions.

I'll take one, if you've still got it. My Steam name is Hesusio.

If you want, I can give you a 20% off anything voucher for Green Man Gaming in exchange.

Uh shit... seems it was the windows version and mac version, which means the person I was using to split the pack now has both of those. Sorry about that.

[Art Vandelay]

Well, poop.

[erictheblue]

So who else has hit the Steam sale? So far, I've picked up Civ V with all the DLC and will snag Heroes of Might and Magic VI (with all the expansions) sometime in the next 24 hours. My wife got Bioshock Infinite.

[ironbite]

Grabbed Hotline Miami.

Ironbite-think I'd be better at it with an actual controller.

[Commissar Kaz]

I just got a new computer, and one of the parts came with free copies of Crysis 3, Farcry 3: Blood Dragon, and Bioshock Infinite, so I'll be playing those. I'll also probably pick up ARMA 2, since it's part of the Steam sale.

[Distind]

Considering blood bowl... for the third time... well, fourth if you count the xbox version I got when my PC was toasty, but that was so hacked together I don't even try. For what these guys can do, optimization is not one of them.

All I've bought this week is B17 Flying Fortress: The Mighty 8th on GOG. As it turns out, that game really does not work too well with a mouse and keyboard. Especially not with a keyboard that doesn't have a numeric keypad. Ah well, live and learn I suppose.

Yeah, it's hard as hell. Even if you've got a stick, though, you'll be spending most of your time at the keys.
