I'm just playing single player, for fear of social interaction.
My world is a series of mountainous islands. I cut my house into the side of a mountain, and I have a strip mining operation in the back.
So, during the day I boat around and gather food, wood and souvenirs (lava & snow), and at night I mine and craft.
I'm so dull. :facepalm:

that's one the most awesome things i've seen in awhile.

and for some reason it reminds me of Vincent Donofrio's scene in Salton Sea where he makes Val Kilmer "put your pecker in the box" so Captain Stubin, the rabid hungry ferret, can chew on his junk.

Limbo is AWESOME. for the first 3/4. gets a little out of it's wheelhouse near the end. but way fun, and really spooky for a bit. cool existensial story too.

I downloaded the demo but haven't played it yet. The side-scrolling kinda reminds me of Oddworld, which I freakin' LOVED!

Played through Limbo on Xbox a while ago, loved it. The design was sublime really, even a few parts that made me jump.

The puzzles don't take a genius to solve but they were a solid challenge, it's really a great game.

The more I see of this game, the more I'm excited. And Classic Sonic is still cute as hell.

y'know.... i never really got Sonic. it was fun for a minute, but the whole "explore every nook and cranny of a level and find the weird/good shit" platform idea seemed to clash with something designed to be fun 'cause your just zooming your ASS off. every time i got through a section i'd feel frustrated, like i missed a buncha shit i shoulda found but couldna go look for now.

Mario Trained Me DIFFERENTLY.

i'm reallt escited about the third Resistance coming out next month. the first was.... fun. i thought the second was really cool, and i liked the ending. rarely do they do that to a main character. curious how the next will turn out.

I've heard good things about it, it's garnered quite a following for starting as a relatively unknown indie title.

I'll let you know if I cave and get it :thumb:

Dunno why they had to ef with Sonic so much over the years...they kinda totally missed the whole point of sonic games until this one.

I was thinking about getting on Steam, as I'm a big fan of Black & White.
Picked up Deus Ex: IW off of Steam. Playing through stealthily. So much fun.
