I got very deep into it a few days ago. I'm really enjoying it. Did you see the Pikmin 4 announcement? Whoopie!

I'll take a pic. I just looked at both, and I can't remember which it was. 

Ha ha. Well, my first silver, ehem. . . I mean Mithral, PS2 died. I'm sure it was the laser wearing out. But, I had to get another one exactly like it and did. I only wish there was a Mithral OG Xbox and my collection would be complete. My precious - gollum, gollum. 

I got pretty deep into it before it started to beat me up. I think it's going to be like most other strategy games for me. I replay the first ten levels or so over and over. 

Right on! 

So, in the game we played, I had all the blue monopolies first, Baltic, Mediterranean, Oriental, Vermont, Connecticut and he had the orange. Then I got the reds but by the time I did, he had bankrupted me just on the oranges with houses and then hotels. The blues didn't help at all and it took too long to build up the reds because of that. But yeah, that corner around Free Parking seems to be the best spot on the board. Don't waste your money on Boardwalk, ha ha. 

I wish I could finish the first one, but the platform segments are really not great and frustrate me too much. Control issues, I think. I'll keep going back to it every so often though because I love the concept so much and the art style. 

Yes, for the most part. I looked up prices on ebay to see if I could sell a complete basic 32 figure collection for any particular game ('cause I have all those), but they are still not worth much. Only a few figures that were very rare because they were giveaways at conventions or whatnot are worth anything and I don't have any of those. 

I think his work is sometimes called "magical-realism". I find his novels sometimes very frustrating because I can't tell what's fantasitcal and what's real. But, I'm going to read more of his work because I want to figure out what he's doing exactly. I've read the "Rat Trilogy" (his first three books) but nothing else yet. 

I love Wargroove soooo much, even though it gets difficult. I was just thinking about it the other day. I should take another shot at it. 

ooo, I just downloaded TinyKin from Game Pass because I saw Pikmin-like gameplay in the trailer. I might get to it tomorrow - can't wait to try it out.
