    How does that stupid game still have the ability to keep me up until midnight on a work night? It's been out for like 6 months now!

    The fight with Lautrec and his henchman was pretty cool, but you'll probably find it super easy now since you're a much more experienced player.

    Demon's and Dark Souls are modern masterpieces for me.

    Some serious difficulty spikes suddenly, but lovin' it. The sense of survival is profound.
    My like for that game turned in to pure, unadulterated hatred in the end.

    Like bac0n, the moment I went to Skyrim I never played Dead Island again. Honestly, it was becoming a little repetitive for me, anyway.

    FYI, if anyone picks up GT5, set aside an hour to install it. Max install requires over 10GB of space. Basic install is 2.2GB.

    Picked it up at Gamestop today for $25.

    "Rage" has one of the worst endings I've encountered in a medium that's not exactly known for its quality endings. What crap.

    Back to "BioShock 2" to play "Minerva's Den". I've played for about an hour so far and it's already better than the entirety of "Rage".

    Microsoft is offering the Xbox 360 for $99. The catch is you need to sign up for a 2 year XBL Gold plan at $14.99 a month.

    You're essentially paying a subsidized $460 for what you could buy for $320. Straight up.

    Wait, $15/month for something you can buy for $45/year. What kind of sense does that make?

    It sounds like a financing option without calling it one.

    It's basically a financing offer complete with interest, but without credit needed. It's silly to me, but so is renting furniture, and that business seems to be doing well enough.

    A year of live now costs $59. Of course you can find deals if you look. I just got two years for $35 each.

    Sony's E3 booth is titled: "Join PlayStation executives as we announce the future of gameplay and innovation". A strange headline when you're not announcing any new hardware....

    Wow.

    "Minerva's Den" was better than "BioShock 2".

    It could be, as you suspect, a PS4 announcement. But it could also be standard issue company speak.

    I've heard some people say it's better than Bioshock 1.

    I'm guessing the latter but the former would be fantastic. I'm all for new hardware.

    In other news EA said today it plans to invest $80 million into game development for next-generation consoles. :|

    Why announce this today?

    I may be inclined to agree with "those people".

    "Minerva's Den" was like a great short story - briskly paced, tightly written, full characters. It was awesome.
    "All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"

    "Rick...it's a flamethrower."

    Demon's Souls is pure white world tendency right now. For one more week. Then it's switching to pure black for the last two weeks of May.
