That's cool that you got the soundtrack redone. Also, for a game that probably will get (or already has) the...what the hell was Mackey's girlfriend's name again?...up in arms, check out the game I just reviewed.
Driving in snow and ice is a learned behavior. You guys don't usually have to do it, so it's not something you learn to do. I actually took my driving classes in late fall/early winter, and my uncle took me out on the worst roads he knew of to teach me what I needed to know beyond what my driving instructor taught me. And there are still plenty of people up here who ought to know how to drive in snow and ice who end up in ditches and median strips. Glad you didn't crash the car and you got home safe.
Not me. There will be no blogs from me on the weekends. Last BaD blog I did on weekend was when my previous cat died.
The real question is how soon it devolves into cute cat pics.
I hear ya on the motion sickness thing with FPS games. The original Tomb Raider on the PS1 gave me motion sickness, too. Funny thing is, the only time I've ever been motion sick in real life is after two hours of plowing the parking lots at work, back when I was year-round. That has to do with the round and round and bashing into things non-stop.
You'd be grumpy, too, if your face looked liked you'd just ran head-on into a door!
I HATE Windows 8. Whoever came up with it needs to be drawn, quartered, and have his head mounted on a pike for public display. Microsoft just doesn't get it - if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it!
But don't you bad mouth bacon. Bacon is heavenly.
I love snow. I'm glad we got more of it today. My depression isn't as bad when there's lots of snow in the winter for some reason.
I missed a lot of the ads because the game was so painful to watch that I was busy on Facebook. My favorites were the Budweiser ad with the puppy and the clydesdales, the cowgirl doritos ad, the Bruce Willis one, and the Pepsi one you mentioned.
My first gaming memory is playing Asteroids in the arcade with my step-dad to be when I was ten. A few years later, my step-dad borrowed a friends Apple II to do some work and the friend loaned us a few games, as well. The one that hooked me and made me a gamer was Wizardry: Proving Ground of the Mad Overlord. My first console was a Genesis and I racked up so many late fees playing Landstalker that it isn't funny. I was working 2nd shift at LL Bean and living alone at the time, so gaming made my late nights less lonely.
