The Wii keeps asking me if I want to log-on to the internet but I keep saying no.
Who was the real power? The Captain? or Tenille?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Anything for a weird life.
amych, the alchemy garden from the Frostcrag Spire add-on would be much cooler.
the physically aggressive plants might be hard to find, though, so perhaps venus flytraps instead of harrada?
(also, for a true Oblivion garden, put in some pitcher plants and then ignore them.)

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
After a great many hours playing the latest GTA, I'm pleased to report I've completed 25% of the game.

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

I've never played this. Does that mean you've stolen 25% of a car?

I've gone back to play older video games and been a little startled at how quickly they can be completed. I think length of game play has steadily been getting longer, to the point that we mostly only notice when we go back to older games.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Am reminded of this, that I read just yesterday: In Praise of the Three-Hour Game

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
40 hours for the average game? Huh. Wow. I really do suck. No clue how long it's taken me to get through Assassins Creed, but I'd venture to say more than 40 hours. Eh, I have fun, that's what matters.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Assassin's Creed takes way less than 40 hours if your goal is just to finish the game and not find all the flags and kill all the Templars. I think it took me 14 or 15 hours, maybe 20 at the most. But that was playing till 5 or 6 in the morning for three nights straight.

God knows how much time I've got into Dungeon Siege II , but Hubby pointed out that I missed half the secondary quests in Act I, so I'll have to do it over. Oh, well, gosh darn. Killing pixels is fun.

move out and draw fire
I got Fable II for my birthday. Love it so far. Even Captain Curmudgeon (the DH) is now a fan.
Me: We could play co-op. Him: OK. Because it's your birthday. But I'm going to quit when I get all Diablo-ed out.
That was 4 hours of gameplay ago. Now he's making his own character so we don't squander XP while playing co-op.
