Unlocked the part of my brain that allows me to make responses that are more than a sentence long. Today hasn't gone exactly as planned. I was supposed to go to Universal Studios because hey, it's my last day off before regular work schedule and summer quarter starts up so I may as well end it on something fun. My car battery ended up dying on me at the gas station and I had to call AAA to get a jump so I could drive home and set up a service appointment for my car on Monday. So I had to construct this whole plan around borrowing someone else's car while they borrow a third car that we conveniently have access to until Monday and then using the borrowed car to jump my car's battery to get it to the appointment. I also ordered pizza because there's nothing to cook and I can't leave and found out that Advanced Warfare is buggy as hell. I got two infinite death loop glitches and at one point the game straight up froze.

Get into The Long Dark.

It has a quote from The Road at the beginning. You actually feel like you're struggling for survival. It's p amazing even in its current alpha form. I lasted one day and five hours. It's brutal. Get into it.

latest


I didn't know Log Lantern Lady was in Alan Wake. She even holds her lantern in the same way that Log Lady holds her log. Also, lots of talk about how great the diner's coffee is.

The Twin Peaks homage is strong.

Really?? I might just have to check it out... but paying for an alpha version puts me off...

Spent $62 on this steam sale, and I'm not regretting it.

Here's what I got:

1) Murdered Soul Suspect
2) GTA Collection (San Andreas, Vice City, GTA III and GTA IV, some DLC)
3) Sleeping dogs definitive edition
4) Ultimate Saints Row Collection (Saints Row 2, III, IV and all the DLC)
5) Resident Evil Franchise pack (RE4, RE5 and RE6).

That's 12 games and DLC for $62!

I remember paying $60 just for one game when I was exclusively a console gamer. I look back and think of all the games I could have bought instead on steam and how much I would have saved. Never again!

Bless be Gaben! \o/

(though to be fair, Naughty Dog, GG and pretty much all Sony first party titles are worth the 60 bucks - I will gladly pay $60 and even more for U4 and Horizon on launch day!)

Games I bought

Wow Jake that's a lot of games. I didn't know Amazon was also having good deals.

I'm all out of money. I had to buy another xbox controller for my PC because my Xbox One controller right stick drifts up by itself. Apparently it's an issue with many xbox one day one controllers. I found out that a lot of people have experienced this problem. I was already getting used to the controller, darn...

There are ways to fix it apparently but I'm not that savvy. Ended up getting a gamestop xbox 360 wired controller. Let's see how long this thing lasts.

This gamestop controller sucks... it feels so cheap and poorly made. It's day and night in comparison to the original xbox one controller.

It'll have to do for now.

For all of you who play pc games, do any of you use a controller outside of the xbox one/360 controllers?

I use a logitech gamepad. It's okay as far as PC controllers go but is completely subpar compared to a console controller. I should probably get the xbox controller working.

Okay, as far as Pizza rankings go for me: Costco Pizza > Pizza Hut > Dominos > My local pizza shop.

I really like Costco pizza, the combo one because it's cheap, tastes good, and decent size.

Papa Johns is out reach for me, but their Pizza is alright.

Local Dominos is not half bad. Definitely better than what Pizza Hut used to be before they got taken out to the back of the shop and put out of their misery. Now that was trash. Last week I had some Bourbon BBQ and Spanish ham and they were pretty decent.

That feeling when you go to adjust your balls and accidentally move them in just the wrong way with a little too much force and want to die afterwards.

Make it stop. Jesus didn't die for this.

I'll be watching Prodigy and Florence live in just a couple of weeks, and shortly after I'll have my internet connection upgraded to 200/200 fiber-optic, plus free cellphone and landline calls at €30/month.

God is real.
