Just finished the pitt add-on for fallout 3 (felt like shooting for a bit(long story)). I was just about to leave the area when the game crashed. Normally that isn't that bad but due to it crashing the auto save got corrupted :-s I do use the normal save once in a while only the one i had is from an hour before :(( (now i have to do the whole end part again.

About the add-on still feels not like Fallout 3 itself but at least it is better then anchorage (although i liked the change of pace for a bit). Can not wait for the last bit (at least my character is getting closer to level 20(the first time i fisnished it my character was around level 14))

I have just finished Pikmin. It was awesome.

However, apparently my impression of the "Pikmin dying" sound is a little too accurate. Which means I may or may not have thrown a mind-boggling amount of little plant creatures to their deaths.

Nothing quite wins a game like mass genocide.

Edit: Now playing Tak 2: The Staff of Dreams. I was not expecting this game to be so absurdly fun.

I'm pissed that only the PC version is getting the G.E.C.K. I understand doing that kind of thing on a console is difficult, which is why if Spore ever gets ported it'll probably suck, but still. The one thing missing is a Thunderdome type battle arena. Sure, they put something like that in the Pitt, but it was crap. Three rounds, big freaking whoop. I'd turn the Capital dome into a Colosseum. See how many Little Lamplight children (with their god mode disabled) it'd take to bring down a Super Mutant Behemoth. :))

I'm playing the DS version of Lego Batman. Almost finished, in fact. Really good game.

But...

I'm really annoyed by certain characters abilities - primarily the fact that Scarecrow has toxin immunity, but Harley Quinn doesn't - which is the opposite of the characters' canonical abilities. (Harley's been immune to toxins since she first started hanging with Poison Ivy in the comics, Scarecrow's not even immune to his own fear gas - though some takes allow him to deal with it psychologically. He's certainly not immune to Smilex, Ivy's toxins, or so on.) I've been slowed down by not realizing Scarecrow was toxin-immune, or wandering blithely on, thinking Harley WAS...

doesnt help that she looks pre pubescent with a butt like that and melon chests.

and is basicly right out of Gunguro Girl with the tan, hair and eyes.

oh and the times your fighting the monsters is the best part! Thats when her bodies in action.

Have come and gone or are just barely limping along.
Ah, yes, Star Wars, the only other CCG I ever invested a bit more money in (I also have some Vampire cards [just extension sets, after it was renamed from Jyhad], and quite a few from the (World of Darkness) Werewolf CCG which I got really cheap, including to foil ultra-rares...). I only ever bought Premier edition cards, and have blackboarder Luke Skywalker and Han Solo at home!! :D Alas, no Darth Vader... Back then, that card was worth about 60 bucks. A guy I knew from Magic stole (!!!) a booster pack from a store and had Vader inside... :-l X(

:ympray: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DON'T OPEN IT!
If it has any value, at all it will become WORTHLESS as soon as you break open a pack. That set has like Zero cards with any value! Sell it unopened and you might be able to get like $30 USD on Ebay for it, open it and it will be worth nothing.
Ahhh, Homelands. The bad old time when they overcorrected Magic after the powerful Legends... Probably the suckiest set ever. A few nice large legendary creatures for casual play (Autumn Willow, Baron Sengir, Ihsan's Shade) but nothing else... I think I'm missing a single card to a double complete set.

Thank God for Alliances. :D Now that was an awesome set, and I have tons of it!
