The Great B-Ball Purge of 2041, a day so painful to some that it is referred to only as the "B-Ballnacht". Thousands upon thousands of the world's greatest ballers were massacred in a swath of violence and sports bigotry as the game was outlawed worldwide. The reason: the Chaos Dunk, a jam so powerful its mere existence threatens the balance of chaos and order. Among the few ballers and fans that survived the basketball genocide was Charles Barkley, the man capable of performing the "Verboten Jam"...
Flash forward 12 years to the post-cyberpocalyptic ruins of Neo New York, 2053. A Chaos Dunk rocks the island of Manhattan, killing 15 million. When the finger is put on the aging Charles Barkley, he must evade the capture of the B-Ball Removal Department, led by former friend and baller Michael Jordan, and disappear into the dangerous underground of the post-cyberpocalypse to clear his name and find out the mysterious truth behind the Chaos Dunk. Joined by allies along the way, including his son Hoopz, Barkley must face the dangers of a life he thought he gave up a long time ago and discover the secrets behind the terrorist organization B.L.O.O.D.M.O.S.E.S.
A tale of zaubers, b-balls, and atonement; brave dangers unheard of, face spectacular challenges that even the greatest ballers could not overcome, and maybe... just maybe... redeem basketball once and for all in:
Tales of Game's Studios Presents Chef Boyardee's Barkley, Shut Up & Jam: Gaiden, Chapter 1 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa
just in case you haven't downloaded this masterpiece yet.

Just started Tell Tale's Walking Dead, digging it so far!
It's like a giant interactive cutscene, but it's pretty well done.

Anyone feel strongly about Civ4 vs Civ5? Thinking of picking one of them up during the steam sale. Of course there's always the Civ Collection pack that I could get, but it would be good to save some money...

I'm also trying to figure out which one I want to get. One of my friends plays Civ 5 constantly and says it's the shit, but it seems like some people prefer 4.

PSP IS SO GOOD
UNLIMITED GAMES
Just loaded DJ MAX onto it, so awesome. Used to play the Japanese alpha where, if someone could tell that you were typing in the non-Japanese font, they'd freak out and start practicing their broken English on you. Good times!
I'm DJ Gaydad.

Ended up picking up Civ5: GotY when it was on flash sale for 75% off. Figured I might as well get the one with the newest graphics and all that.

We should get a game going. I haven't played since the whole world declared war on me.

Definitely! Although I won't have time to play until August. I have a ton of music to learn for a tour at the end of the month...

I never should have looked at the Steam sales. I was doing so well until today. Now I'm pretty sure that I'm going to buy Train Simulator 2012 and Farming Simulator 2011 by the end of the day. And the GTA collection. And maybe other things.
BUT DUDES
TRAINS
AND FARMS AND SHIT
