We have like 14 GB free... so no Game Of Thrones for me. :| Don't feel bad... you're not missing much. Admittedly I'm just a couple quests in, but the game is really clunky in almost every aspect. Lags and pauses when loading, choppy graphics where things randomly jump when a new line of conversati...

Yeah, their $5 minimum has worked on me. "I've got $2 left in my wallet. I think I'll buy a game I really wasn't looking for, but is on sale for $3. Oh no! That means I have to add $5 more! May as well get this other game too." And that's exactly why they do it that way. I had to laugh tha...

Hound wants... and that's tiny, so we should be able to squeeze this one in, This Whirl sniffing has gone too far! Yes, Tokyo Jungle is 2.4 Gb, and super fun. It's hard to progress after a while, but still a totally unique game. And you can get some decent add-ons for free... at least I did a few m...

Someone says it's about 2.4 GB. I can check this afternoon on mine if that's incorrect. Just good fun being a housecat taking down a wolf or a Pomeranian with a clean kill. Not as fun being a pig getting eaten by a crocodile. :)

PlayStation Network has a bunch of games on sale this weekend for under a dollar. Tokyo Jungle is definitely worth it. I'm considering picking up the Game of Thrones Game of games of thrones for 80 cents. Figure it must be worth that at least. Back to the Future and Jurassic Park are in there too.

We spent two entire class periods in seminary taking one of those tests. On day three when we got our results, the shrink said, "Look on the grid to see what your results say, and if it doesn't match you, look around the grid for the one that does." I raised my hand and asked why we had wa...

When they changed it, they assumed that it would make a difference for US buyers, though, so I think that market had a good deal to do with it. But, like Clay, I'm curious if Phillip Morris has any presence in Japan, and if they have any of the legal limitations/qualms there that they do here.

GooglePlay had Beck's "Morning Phase" for 99 cents. Great album, but just not a Beck album. Very slow and mellow, missing that frantic craziness that I like about Beck. It does sound a lot alike on the first listen, but starts to stand out a little more the more you hear it. Kanye's a moron.

Don't know if this point has been made before, but I'm pretty sure that Marlboro could get in big trouble if their brand appears on anything like a toy. Tobacco laws forbid marketing to children in any way. I'm guessing that's why they're taking such interest here.

Happy Birthday to Clay and, apparently, Warcry!!

(So glad to hear that the site was apparently down for everyone. Isitdown and such kept saying there was no problem. So happy birthday to anyone else during THE OUTAGE.)

I saw Alpha Bravo again last night. I held him, put him in the cart, price checked him in the hopes that he was on sale, and then put him back on his peg. I looked back a few times as I walked away, and a tear slowly rolled down my cheek, but I just couldn't justify $15 for a deluxe, especially know...

No, Superman is doing good. I believe this thread is doing well. :)
I need to grab some time for more actual reading, though.
Earbuds and dishes have gotten me through a good number of chapters.

Website design

I think I asked this here a few years ago when I was doing a different website, but I'm sure things have changed since then, and I've forgotten what the responses were. I'm looking for decent, easy to use website design software, preferably free. I am somewhat computer literate, but not with program...

I know my friend listened to the audiobook version of at least one of the Game of Thrones books. He said it ran for about 33 hours or somesuch. EDIT: Found it! It's actually almost 34 hours... I think the shortest one so far has been 27 hours. I started listening about 2 years ago when I had a 16 h...

I'm on book 4 of A Song of Fire And Ice and this one is kinda boring at the start. Spoiler alert: It stays that way. But book 5 is pretty dang awesome so far. I think Grandpa Martin wrote both books at once, and put all the good parts into Dance with Dragons. I did read a disturbing quote from him ...

Having finished Lego Marvel, I started poking through my backlog of games. I started Puppeteer, which is okay, but the graphics are real mess to the point that it's hard to figure out what's going on fairly often. So instead I switched to Chrono-Trigger, which I had picked up for like $3 a while bac...

I do enjoy when kids' shows throw in a little something for the parents. Phineas and Ferb is loaded with stuff like that. I genuinely enjoy that show, and actually find myself watching it sometimes even when the kids aren't around.

When I first saw the picture, I honestly thought, "Hey, it's a blue Onslaught."
