Dead Space looks stunning.
It looks and sounds stunning.
I've tried several times to rent Left 4 Dead
Also fun. Especially when you play online as a zombie.

Just beat it last night. Took me over 16 hours on Medium, but my brother had done it in about 10 or 11. It's pretty awesome from start to finish, and the story, while your typical sci-fi fare, is done well. It really feels like you're in a sci-fi horror movie.

We played the BSG boardgame yesterday. For about 6 hours. I will give a full session report when not on my new ipod touch, but I give it high marks. Especially if you think the setup for Puerto Rico is way to simple and short.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Looking forward to it. One of the things that attracts me ot the game is that the session report write-ups on boardgamegeek are just so much fun, the game seems designed to produce a strong narrative.
(No pressure.)

All of this has happened before; all of this will happen again.
