A continued thought, and a plan.

I like favorites lists. It's always fun to see what other people like. Sometimes I find something that I might not have played otherwise. Looking forward to this.

Musings

When my nephew was that age, we went into Game Stop and he wanted some game that had an M rating (GTA III, maybe?). I told him that he was too young to be playing M rated games and he threw a tantrum and told me that his daddy let him play GTA games. He then got to watch his aunt have a cow over that statement ("Your father does what?!"), but once I'd had said cow, we had a discussion about why some games aren't for little kids, and that was the last time he asked me to get him a game with an M rating. Now that he's 17, he makes his own decisions about what to play, and there's a lot of CoD and Battlefield, but he also likes RPGs and Journey, so I think maybe I had some good influence there.

One thing I have noticed is that gamer parents tend to be a bit stricter about what they let their kids play. I think it has to do with being knowledgeable about games and gaming and knowing that games aren't all kid-friendly. My nephew refers to me as the strict but cool one in the family, and one of the only family members he can talk to about games, anime, and books with. I'm also the only serious gamer of my generation or older in the family.

As for Chrono Trigger, good choice, Sidd. One of my favorite RPGs of all time. I even tried for all of the endings at one point. Good luck with the final boss, that may be one of the most brutal battles I've ever made it through.

My patience for watching Let's Play videos is non-existent, so I'll pass. I loved the demo, so I am sure that once I start playing the game, I'll enjoy it just as much. Since you've made a few changes since I downloaded it, I'll probably dump that copy and dl the most current version.

Can lids are evil. I have a scar starting midway between my thumb and forefinger on my left hand, running across the lowest joint of that finger and half-way across my palm from there. Did it when I was a toddler, and suffered nerve damage. My whole hand will go numb if I hit that joint too hard, kind of like when you bang your funny bone.

My misspent youth in arcades playing pinball instead of video games, lol.

Yeah, I'm feeling like Revolution may be going the way Lost did. It's like JJ Abrams starts a series, and doesn't really think about where it's going and then they start making weird shit up as they go along. I'm still pissed about Nora getting killed, by the way.

Same ones I was last month, lol. Kind of taking a break from gaming for a bit, the last six weeks were crazy busy with all kinds of other things going on. I still have AC2, The Last Window, and Tomb Raider going on. Also playing The Pinball Arcade every so often.

Holy crap, that's a lot of bottles! Here in Maine, we get five cents a piece for returnables. Actually, we get our five cents a piece back, as we have to pay bottle deposit.

Which 45s did you end up with besides We Are the World? I couldn't read the titles Frown, getting old and needing bifocals, I think.

Mountain Crime isn't horrible or broken, just laughably corny. I wouldn't pay full price for it, but if you see it on sale for around $5, it might be worth it. As for Dreamfall, if you play any games on your PC, it might be worth picking up both The Longest Journey and Dreamfall as a bundle on Steam.
