Red Dead Redemption
I said, "I wish John Marston wasn't so much dumber than me."
F said, "Yeah but can you shoot like him?"
You know the mission where the guys says
he'll trade you Zhou for a white stallion? After he rode away I quick climbed the ladder to the roof of my adobe, got out my sniper rifle and picked him off when he was just out of range. In the morning I whistled for my hungarian half bred and he came.
It cost me 50 honor but it felt so good.
Finally got caught up here. Being able to tear through the BSG game posts in about the speed the game would be played tabletop was pretty cool. That was some high drama (and some nice wise-cracking from both teams as well) in that game.
Yep, that was a pretty exciting one. You are of course welcome to join in the next game too. (I have an exam on June 10, at the moment I'm thinking it'll start after that.)
You guys you guys you guys.
You have to watch this real-life Portal skit.
A while back, I supplied the following quote from a BSG game on boardgamegeek:
I can't be a rainbow princess if my horsey smells like the grave!
That same player has now provided this vignette:
This administration DOES NOT tolerate Care Bear vigilantism! The perpetrators of this death by love will be caught and hung!
This is one of the strangest games I've read.
So Catwoman is going to be a playable character in Batman: Arkham City [link]
I wonder if you're going to be able to play co-op or just pick to play her or Batman solo.
I would have loved to be able to play co-op with Batman and Nightwing or Robin.

Um. Hello. Work has kept me super dark grey on the boards. BillyTea has twisted my arm, broken all my fingers one by one, and dislocated my shoulder in an attempt to get me to play the next round of BSG. OK, maybe I exagerate. He asked. I said yes.
Sadly, that means I skipped about 2500 posts.
But! In the interim time, I've started playing CivRev on the Xbox, (loving it), and completed Portal2 (Loving it more!).
Anyhow, hopefully work will calm down now that Summer Break is approaching. And give me a chance to hang out with y'all again. Wheee!
So? When do we draw lots of what character we pick?
So? When do we draw lots of what character we pick?
You can just draw them the once if you want. I'm not a slavedriver, dammit! (I have a Corolla.)
I'm trying to decide if I have time to play. I'll be on a cruise ship for two weeks in July with spotty internet so that would slow things down.
Our guideline has been, "can you check in once a day?"
It's fun when we can all be here at the same time and the game moves quickly but it's not important to me.
