I very rarely played video games until the mid-2000teens because I mostly just worked constantly until the kids were born. I can probably list almost everything I played up until that point on PC (I played a lot of console when I was young): Wizardry Bards Tale II Papyrus Racing 2003 Need for...

Where is Brian? Ireland trip?

New levels of questionable publisher behavior. Playway released this game on Nov 5 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3073580/Aquatic_Store_Simulator and then one week later released it as a DLC for a different game https://store.steampowered.com/app/3073590/Aquarist__Aquatic_Supermarket_DLC/

I haven't played most older games so my list would be too long. I'll just hit the highlights (note, I've played at least a few minutes of all of these, but that's all) System Shock Bioshock Deus Ex all GTA Thief original Doom Dishonored I have a hard to describe standard as to whether I've...

Thinking about this some more, I think RE4 remake should have had commentary from the original devs. I remember when the 2nd game was remade that people asked them if they were going to keep the campy dialogue, and they said that at the time they didn't realize they were doing campy dialogue...

I agree with this. I guess the my one exception are these weird remasters people are doing of games that really aren't that old.

I found the wiki to be really helpful. It even has the mission walk-throughs in a lot of cases.

It's amazing how apparently clueless I am about women. I was at the pharmacy. They are always getting new pharmacists, but I'd seen this woman before. She asked how she could help me, and I said, "Didn't your eyes used to be green?" because she wore colored contacts and the other times I saw...

Bought this on sale https://store.steampowered.com/app/784150/Workers__Resources_Soviet_Republic/ I've read a lot of very glowing user reviews, including one from a friend of mine, and there are a lot of people touting this as the best city builder game, even over Cities Skylines 1. Too bad...

Call to Arms looks really interesting. I'm going to keep an eye out for it in the Winter sale. I just bought Last Train Home (50 percent off), and I'm hoping it will help me get used to RTS a little more. I've never played them much (Total War doesn't count to me), but all of them look so good...

I meant to check that out, too. I'm not really into PvP, but I'd like to play a few rounds and see what it's like. I'll hand it to Fatshark. They may release broken, half-completed games, but they keep working on them for years and years.

In the days of yore, MFS used to be MSF for Microsoft Flight. I thought I knew what PoE was, but couldn't think of the name :) I'm kind of looking forward to MFS. I think the jobs thing will add a whole new area of interest for me. Now I'll be crashing planes with a purpose.

They are more comfortable than they look...I mean...I don't know either.

Well, somehow I broke those nice cables for my IEM and possibly broke the IEM in the process. I've got new cables coming. If that IEM is broken, I bought the $10 insurance for it on a whim, so I can send it back. No idea how I managed to bend the thing. I'm beginning to think that I wasn't cut...
