I got myself (not saying how) the new Deep Silver game, Secret Files Puritas Cordis. It's the sequel to Secret Files Tunguska and it's a point and click adventure where you have to solve riddles. And no, it's not that easy.
Last time, I had thought that I had played excessively by playing it through in a couple of days with doing other things in between, but still being through quite fast. I blamed it on the full walkthrough I had at hand...
So this time around I played 7.3 hrs - yes, you guessed right - nonstop. I only stopped to eat and pee. Don't get me wrong it's not that great a game, I just couldn't stop. I wanted to solve that riddle and then the next and then it was a change of scenery and of course I have to know what happens. I only consulted the walkthrough 3 times and I'm quite proud of myself for that...
Spoler Alert: In the end the world was saved and the heroine and her ex/again bf are alive and well.
I wish you guys a great weekend. Spend your time wisely!

Don't you just hate it when tv does that to you?

Finatella Portace beat the game!
against better knowledge I simple couldn't stop and I so agree with xkcd:I defeated jojo's fashion show. a lethal yahoo game that will make you stop working, eating, drinking, and peeing until you've either laughed your ass off or finished the game. In the case of jojo's it's especially funny because neither McC nor I are exceptional fashionistas with fabulous sense of style. Well, I at least can distinguish between black and blue ;)
that kinda always happens to me. I download the trial version of something (or gf does) and then we try to get ourselves the full version (I'm not elaborating on how we obtain it) and end up playing until our heads fall off...
side info: I spotted two computer games in the sales corner of Libro and of course I bought them only to have them lying around on the table, mocking me.

gamedom
since gf discovered the existence of x-men legends II pc game and acquired it we are both hooked on it.
we sit at our dining table, facing each other hoping to survive the combat part of the game and solving the quiz part of it.
it's probably fun to watch us, usually non-gamers, surprised by every turn the game takes and screaming at every enemy attack as if to scare it away.
we sleep and dream about the game, we walk through life thinking about when we have time to play on again...
we derived into cheap copies of 14 year olds who have their asses glued in front of the screen.
finn, out.
