Yesterday I woke up to my family in a hysterical panic, our dog, Luke had been hit by a car one street over. We rushed him to the vet and thankfully, he's ok aside from a bit of road rash on his jaw a broken tooth and cuts on his tongue. He did have to spend most of the day at the Vet for tests and observation though. His Xrays also revealed that at some point in his previous home, he was shot.

Not being my personal blog I won't bore ya'll with the details, I'll just say that I want a refund for this week. Anything and everything that could go wrong has. Worst of all is the fact that I have a mild case of writer's block. I've got one measly paragraph written about Dragon Age 2 and its terrible. On the flip side, last night I did something I haven't done in ages, I drew something.

So I'm lying in bed with a horrible stomache watching my son play Dungeon Defenders and thinking about this blog. (dont worry I'm not gonna go into another one of my 'I quit!' rants) What I was thinking about were a few other things and I'd like some suggestions from you guys (all 5 of you, lol) First I love my template, but I feel I've outgrown it. Like it doesn't suit me or the tone of this

I'm working on my dragon age 2 review, but in the meantime I've been gaming my butt off. I've been trying new games, well not NEW games but, new to me as in, I've had them sitting around but never touched them. So, til I get that  big Dragon Age 2 rant out to you, I'll give a quick rundown of the games I've played. Dungeon Defenders both on STEAM and XBLA: Played it on Steam with a friend and

So after slacking off for a month, the kids will be returning to school soon and I'll be able to actually have the quiet time i need to write. I've already got a short list of what I'll be posting about: A review of sorts of my experience with Dragon Age 2 (there will be spoilers and maybe some hate in there) A review of the second Elder Scrolls novel (spoilers and stupidity will be present) and

I had to get a new rack for my games and then move them from their crowded corner. So here is my little ps1,ps2,xbox, and xbox360 games. With Godzilla guarding them. :) I've run out of space on my living room shelves for my ps3, gamecube and Wii games as well, time to buy more racks and put them.... I dont know where....

Hello my neglected blog! Told ya it would be a slow month. So Christmas is now over, YAY!!!! what did we all get? I got a very...non-gaming Christmas tbh :( I got...clothes....lots of clothes. I did get the FMA Pocket Watch I've wanted for over 3 years now, so that's good. I got a Kinect for everyone, kind of a waste of money really. Everyone tried it once and then went off to play with all

First my most recent addition: Catherine Love is Over edition. my not so impressive 32in. With my slim PS2 AND elite Xbox360 with my DeathSmiles face plate I got recently MY Xbox360 games with a few PS1 games thrown in and half of my PS2 games The Rest of my PS2 games My 46in with my second PS2, Second Xbox360, PS3 and Wii. On the sides are my Gamecube, Wii and PS3

I like to do random stuff with the kids sometimes and this week was one of those times. A while back we bought my son a little SWAT team set. Gun, vest, helmet etc. he loved that thing, but yesterday he comes to me sadly clutching his vest and telling me that somehow it ripped. He looked so sad about it and suddenly inspiration struck. I suggested that we tear it up a bit more, add some paint and

So, I've got a hell of a sinus infection and have been sick as a dog for a week..like death's door sick. How do I know I'm death's door sick? I not only felt an itch to play the PS3, I actually moved it from the living room to the bedroom so I could play in bed (got electrocuted in the process too). I started off playing White Knight Chronicles which was a lot less fun the second time around. I

too much turkey...omg.... just had turkey for breakfast. Just spent a fuckton of money too. Lost track of how much. Sales suck this year btw. I can't list some of the games I've bought cause they are joint gifts for the kids but, I did pick myself up a couple of things.... Enchanted Arms, because I've had that on my wishlist since I got my Xbox and figured "what the hell" Catherine CE because it

Just a quick hello. since getting the Game Guide to Skyrim, I've been overwhelmed with a billion things to do in the game. Can't say i've made much progress in the game. I finished the first act but aside from that its all utter BS. Just me, running around finding locations and getting my followers killed, I'm on my 3rd follower now lol. I kinda miss the New Vegas thing where they dont die, they

So, as you know, I have found Skyrim a bit less than enjoyable. But in all fairness, it took me 60 hours to really get into Oblivion. Yeah, 60 hours. Funny it really didnt take me long to like Fallout 3, and even though I initially didn't like New Vegas much and still think its inferior compared to Fallout 3 it still didnt take me that long to appreciate it, DLC definitely helped with that though

So I had ordered the Assassin's Creed: Revelations ultimate bundle which came out to $111 and some change. I did surveys like a mad woman to get a $25 gift card which I used to knock the price down a tad. Today when my package arrived and I opened it...Surprise! I somehow ended up with 2 copies of the game. Awesomesauce! This weekend I'll have to get hubby to hang my flying machine above my

Oh how I've looked forward to Skyrim. I've read about it, watched videos, memorized Dan Bull's Rap, Pre-ordered it and the game guide months ago, checked the door every half hour on Friday like a puppy til UPS dropped it off. As soon as I got it I ripped it open and fired it up and it all began... My bouts with narcolepsy and love of the pause button. It started up and here I was sitting a

So, I've been trying to actually PLAY some of the games I own and what do you know...if you actually stick to a game, you'll eventually finish it! I had no idea. I think that writing out my unfinished game lists really made me realize that, damn I buy way too many games and they are really good games and I have no life whatsoever, no job, I dont do housework...so why the hell do I never finish

I've been quiet lately, I know. I've had the cold from hell. Seriously, deaths door til recently. Got lots to say, lots to play, but my batteries are totally dead. I need a few days to recharge, and nap...a lot. Hopefully I'll be up to writing by this weekend....of course, Skyrim drops soon and then i'll be occupied til lord knows when :p

So its been a good couple of days. I mean sure I've got a horrid cold but. Yesterday I got my Uncharted 3 CE. Today I got the latest issue of Nintendo Power and PC Gamer, a cool new teefury.com shirt (its a Mucha style picture of Sarah from Labyrinth in the white ballgown.) And I got my Deathsmiles LE. Now to decide which Xbox to put the faceplate on. Guess I know what game I'll be giving a go

Finally! UPS finally delivered my CE. Yay. It's so cool, now to find a spot for it. Now I feel like I MUST get through the first 2 games so I can play this one.

So this is it. Me in all my wigged, make-uped glory. I look nothing like me, or like Codex. I love the wig though. Those leg straps and knee pads were a nightmare. They kept sliding down and coming out. Grrr! No ones knew who the Hell I was, but I got compliments on my looks. I also had plenty of people ask me where my cans bucket was. That's it, next year I'm bringing a bucket and trick or

I apologize for the lack of anything interesting or even amusing in this post now, before I even begin, so that should you read it all, you can't claim I didnt warn you it was a big crapfest lol. I could give many excuses and reasons why, but I'll keep it simple. I have had a bad week, I'm extremely exhausted and my G.A.D. is off the chain this week. I was updating my apps on my phone last night

Ah, after so many long lists, this is finally the end of the line and its a short list. I admit that aside from the DS, Nintendo products don't really get much use in my house. I think that aside from the dusting off of Wii sports during parties or visits from friends and family, the only thing that has managed to clock some hours on the Wii is the Just Dance series. I've mentioned it before and

The Launch Bundle This is a very cool deal. 4 indie games at a starting price of $1.99. As more people purchase, the price goes up, you can also lower the price for the next purchaser by paying more than the minimum. Bundles will be released every 2 weeks. A sweet way to pick up some of those hidden Indie Gems and show support for the smaller developers.

So i'm gonna be really lazy because looking at my PS2 list..its gotten pretty damn big and I really dont wanna copy pasta exactly the same thing as last year or think of good excuses for why I haven't touched any of the games I had then or have now so.....  PS2 90+ games that I have not finished , most of which I havent even started. Shameful list of unfinished games is HERE. PS3

So...last night I was playing Gears 3 on Hardcore with my 7yr old son and my husband. we quit after failing the Anvil Gate mission too many times...you know, when half of you stay on the wall and the other half go out in the truck... What does it say that the reason we quit was because my husband kept getting killed during the mission..not my 7yr old. I know who I want on my side in a Vs. match

Continuing from my post the other day... So, I've pretty much covered Xbox 360 games except for the games I've omitted for the previous stated reasons: Fighting, Music, Racing, games that dont have an actual "end". My Original posts did not cover XBLA or XBIG because at the time I really didnt have any games to speak of, therefore I wont bother starring new additions unless they are XBOX

So, at first I hated it and then it grew on me, and now its kinda boring me but one good thing has come out of it. I stumbled upon the Awesomeness of Fallout Nuka Break by Wayside Creations. Never heard of it? Well, we'll correct that right now. Its the tale of a courier and his 2 companions, a ghoul and an ex-slave as they try to survive the wasteland and find the perfect Nuka Cola Break. It

I've given it much though, and I've gotten much  lecturing from friends and family :) and I will be continuing my blog. Thanks to all you guys that do come and read my rants :) I'm still working on those Game lists and I've got a few actual game related thoughts I'm rattling round my head to maybe write about soon. So..I'll be back soon. I'm off to play MvsC3...I have a bizarre crush on Wesker..

Who has 2 thumbs, is adorably evil, will kill me if I stop blogging, wants to steal my closet and got massively photo bombed by Luke? THIS GIRL!! aka Ghanima, my spunky sidekick

Yay my costume is here! Didn't bother with all the other parts, just trying on the dress. Now to dye my hair and get the goofy look off my face... Luke seems to love photo bombing.

I've decided not to bother continuing my unfinished game list posts. They are incredibly long lists and really, no one really cares about what I have played or not. I enjoy writing this blog. I know that very few people actually read it, and i'm ok with that. After all a game obsessed stay at home mom isn't all that interesting. Not to mention that this blog was started for me to rant and rave

Over a year ago I wrote 3 posts listing the games I hadn't gotten around to playing or if I had played I hadn't finished them. Many games have come and gone since then, so I thought I'd do an update since I've bought many games since then and even finished a few. Much like in my previous posts, I'm not including Handheld Consoles, Music games or Fighting games. Handhelds because I own WAY too

Once upon a time I started doing Bellydance workouts apparently in those days I was also color blind. The workouts are long gone, but the fugly pink outfit remains. Here it is in all its pastel glory at my daughter's birthday party this past weekend. Its ok, laugh...I mean..wow, that's HELLA PINK! Lovely how my once red-now faded to hot pink on top, orange at the bottom hair matched so well.

Oh my, its been quite a weekend. Friday was a marathon run to 4 separate stores looking for Halloween costumes. Why the rush? Saturday was my daughter's Birthday party (though her Birthday is actually today) and she wanted a costume party. Saturday was the party...rambunctious 10yr olds being loud and hyper...great fun. Sunday was recovery. I'm still feeling Meh. Obviously I was doing a lot this

and Allergies. No, they have nothing to do with each other, I just wanted to have an excuse to post pics of Luke. Isnt he cute? He's a Border collie, Australian Shepherd mix. He's also a hyper little meatball. One if his eyes is totally awesome, its half brown, half blue. This weekend he woke me up by leaping onto the bed and landing right on me...35 lbs of fuzzy slobbery dog plopped down on

Yes, I like Country music...deal with it. (also this post will be HUGE with a billion pictures, just so you know) But moving on... I always talk about me, its my blog, its what its here for. Its basically my very own shrine to myself, because I'm awesome. I'm kidding...partly. Since I'm too tired and lazy to think of anything deep to write about, I'm going to be shallow, frivolous and pointless

Sure, I admitit, I'm solidly in the Xbox360 Fan club, but I appreciate awesomeness in all its forms and this is awesome... So who did you spot in the video? "Michael" - PS3 Long Live Play -- Full Length - YouTube: 'via Blog this' (I realize this came out a few days ago, but I've been in a coma induced by lack of sleep and too much Gears 3)

Yeah, I've kinda forgotten to update this place, I've been busy listening to Baird's smart mouth and shooting many many Locust. I've also been fighting a cold...yes, the same one I've had for 2 weeks. While I've been fighting this cold my kids keep passing it around to each other. Today my daughter went back to school after missing 3 days and before that it was my son who was home with it. This

So, I have played Gears and i've finished the campaign. I laughed, I cried, I cheered...i'm madly in love with Baird..yeah, that shocked the hell out of me as well. Man i hated him in the first 2 games. Last book, he grew on me, so I was able to appreciate his brand of "asshole" in a new way this time around. Way back when, I bought my Xbox360 because of Gears of War commercials, which is

I apologize for the lack of anything worthwhiles soon as i find my phone's cable to hook it up to my pc I'll upload the hilariously bad video of me opening my Gears Epic Edition that my daughter has plastered on her FB to embarass me lol. Apparently she was holding my phone upside down so I need to correct that before I post it. I have finished the Gears 3 campaign and I am truly (I swear this

After 2 stressful days waiting I finally got my Gears of War 3 Epic Edition and its...well its Epic! Since I'm gonna be getting my Gear on soon I dont have time for a full blog post but. In a few days come back and I'll have a decent length post about my Journey with Gears. I promise to keep it spoiler free...and...asa bonus you'll get to see the hilariously silly video my daughter took of me

First off I want to say that this is not going to be some huge involved post. My allergies are killing me and I can't go more than 5 minutes without a sneeze attack, which makes it hard to type and see. Second, I noticed on Amazon that the sequel to that POS Elder Scrolls novel is being released soon, I'm pondering if I should buy it just to rip on it some more but then figure that I could be

So, I was lookin around on Gamespot and decided to see what people were saying about Borderlands 2. If I haven't made it clear by now I LOVE THE HELL OUT OF BORDERLANDS!!!!!!! Like 500 hours worth of love. Like, I'd gladly trade my eldest child (sorry Ghanima) to get Borderlands 2 now,  this minute, completed, in all its glory. uhm... sorry about that.... As I was saying, so I go to the Gamespot

No, I dont like Jersey Shore. It just happened to be a cute hairstyle and i'm tired of the fugly limited hair choices. So there you go... I just wanted to throw that out there.

I'm a mess...totally. But you probably knew that already. No, I'm not talking about my disastrous personal life, which is Soap Opera or at least Lifetime movie worthy. And i'm not talking about my crap health, I have more issues than my grandma and she's in her damn 80's. But no, this is strictly all about the games. You guys probably have the same problems as me...too many games, not enough

So I think I had a reason behind the title of this post when I typed it last night, but it was like 1am and i was half asleep and too lazy to write anything else and now I dont remember what I meant by that phrase. .....

Warning, this post might be a bit biased because I had a bitchin' migraine yesterday. Gaming with a migraine is probably not the smartest idea but I was really bored after spending most of the day in the dark, with a pillow over my head waiting for Athena fully grown and armoured to pop out. When I was seriously starting to consider ramming my head into a wall to knock myself unconscious I

I know its been a few days and I'm not falling back to the whole "write one post every 3 months" thing. I've just been busy and ill, and gaming. Can't write about games if I don't play them, right? This weekend I spent it playing XBLA games mostly. I picked up Bulletstorm for $20 at Best Buy and spent a few hours playing that and laughing my ass off. I played it on PC when it came out and while I

I got Dark Soul's for Christmas and added on to my pile of shame ( a pile you could lose a toddler in). I've read the manual, looked at the cover, think I even took the disc out of the case once, then put it right back. For a time I forgot it existed. Everyone talks about how hard it is and I remember watching Yahtzee's review of it and going "f- that", I like my games to be fun, dying a million

"I'm going to have to give you a ticket for doing 30 in a 12." Confused? Yeah, me too. So, you know, this blog is called "our mom games" but I don't talk all that much about the kids or how my gaming affects them. I mean, I do, but not often. Probably because its just something that is. Its just normal life here. Every so often though, it makes life a little...weird. Like this week. A few days

No, I don't actually feel that chipper, or have anything earth shattering to write but I thought it would be good to at least drop in here and say hello, get me in the habit of updating regularly. So, I guess this will just be a short "what's up with me" type thing. We got a dog over the weekend. Kinda cute, not very bright. Kids love it. He's an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix...and about

Yesterday, somewhere around the part of my post where I make sense and get to some sort of lucid point I totally lost my mojo, Seriously, One minute I'm typing away furiously and I have this brilliant and hilarious thought in my mind and the next minute I'm like a deer in the headlights. Mind utterly blank. I was already having doubts about the quality of what I was writing and losing the "punch"

Long before I became an obsessive gamer, I was an obsessive reader. As a kid I rarely played video games, preferring to read and to this day I still treasure the very first book I remember reading often during my childhood, Robert Louis Stevenson's A Child's Garden of Verses. Since you aren't my therapist we won't discuss my life growing up but I will say that books got me through most of it with

Ever notice that whenever I say I'm gonna be brief I end up writing an essay? Why is that? I usually set out with some sort of point to make, but I'm like a 3 year old, shiny things distract me. Even with my insanely verbose posts I usually notice after the fact things that I've forgotten to say that I had planned to-*ooh pretty butterfly* ... ... Where was I? Right, things i forget to say.

I was driving the kids to school this morning and since my CD player only works when it feels like it (very sad, can't listen to my blast from the past Mortal Kombat The Album) I was playing music on my phone. No, that isnt the geeky part. Lately I'm pretty much exclusively listening to Miracle of Sound. What is Miracle of Sound? Well, more of a who...Guy named Gavin Dunne that writes songs about

  Long ago when FO:NV was announced I pre-ordered the game from Amazon. I started my adventures in the Mojave Wasteland on release day and I HATED them. I found a lot of the game cumbersome and pointless and a step down from Fallout 3. At the time Fable 3 was more my cup of tea than FO:NV.   Times change and so do opinions....   While I still find Fable 3 to be a great game, after completing the

Just testing out this whole blogging from my phone thing so, here's a pic of my toys to test it out. My studio is a bit of a mess as usual, I apologize. However its bound to get even worse soon, since I'm planning on taking up painting again.

   So as usual. I forget to update this damn thing. Its not that I don't want to, its not that I don't have stuff to write about, its that I'm a lazy procrastinator. Not only that but, for some reason no one needs me until I either sit down to write or decide to draw.   So lets see...where to start..its been a while and there's so much....     Ok, well lets start with games I've been playing.

  I have been gaming a lot more these days and I have managed to complete yet another game. I feel so good finally finishing a few games. Not that it diminishes my "to be played/finished" pile all that much but, gotta start somewhere.   What did I finish this time? Something I should have finished ages ago, Gears of War. Currently I'm working on getting through Gears of War 2, so I should be done

   I've been so quiet haven't I? What have I been doing? Not a whole lot.    I've been spending most of my time playing Pokemon Black. Pokemon is one of those games that I play for hours and hours on end and when i finally stop I look up and wonder "Why the hell did i just blow all those hours on this?"    I do feel victorious because I FINALLY...FINALLY finished Mass Effect the other night. YAY

I'm so ashamed of myself. I've been so caught up in other things that I havent bothered to update. I feel guilty now... I have no idea where to start... I guess I'll go with Christmas. it was a very Gamer Christmas his year, as it is every year. Let's see..what was the haul this year: On 360 Blur Lost Planet 2 Spiderman Web of Shadows Chronicles of Riddick Assault on Dark Athena Vanquish

  what have I been up to?   Well, once again I tried nanowrimo and developed massive writer's block. 8k words. that's all I got. I cant write on a deadline, but I'm not losing sleep over it.   I played a bit more Fable 3, which I love and will eventually finish.   I also gave New Vegas another spin...a LONG spin...a 70+ hour spin. Do I still hate it? No. Do I love it like I did Fallout 3? No. I

   As promised I'm sneaking in the time to write my Fable 3 impressions and AW my Halloween costume of course.  As I suspected, I like Fable 3 far more than I do Fallout New Vegas. So now, where do I begin....     I got the game early Tuesday morning and proceeded to play for 11 hours straight. I got the CE and while the playing cards are a little underwhelming (New Vegas did have that one over

    So today is going to be a dual post day. I was originally just going to make it one post but its just too much stuff and too confusing to smush it all together. So, I'll cover the personal stuff here and Fable 3 in my next post.     Halloween seems to have brought up the repressed perfectionist cosplayer in me. I apparently spent the weekend driving my family crazy with trying to get my

Hellos.   Another sporadic post from the queen of the procrastinators lol.   Work keeps piling up and I keep putting it off. I need someone to stand behind me with a whip and make me work.   Tuesday I got Fallout New Vegas and Wednesday I got my lovely Xbox back. I missed it so much.... So I've played a little under 20 hours of NV since getting it and so far, the best part of it was the

This is going to be related to Halloween.... So, growing up, I was not allowed to celebrate holidays...so I missed the joys of dressing up. I started dressing up not that long ago, and it seems every year I get more into it... So..I felt like going down the line of my most recent outfits.... Lets begin with my first time dressing up....this was about 6yrs ago I guess...I had just had a baby and

Ok, I freely admit this is a lazy post. Its a c/p from my GS blog..sorry. Started playing this yesterday...its... you ever play a game and you cant decide if its good or not? I spent hours playing last night and honestly...I cant really say why I kept playing, but then again, I have no argument for turning it off either. so far its got just enough going on to keep me playing but not enough to

While I own all 3 consoles, I do not love them equally. My eldest child is my pride and joy, my 360 Elite. We've had good times, (like that one time we played Oblivion for like 8hrs straight and the 16hr Ultimate alliance Marathon and most recently my all night Borderlands session in the Circle of Duty) We've hit a rough patch as well...like the time right before (like a week) before fable 2

The joy of having kids...they are little germ incubators.... August 31st I had oral surgery that didn't go too well...just as I was starting to recover from it I got sick...really sick. One of my lovely little monkeys brought me a gift..Strep throat. I'm just now starting to feel a little better. I've also been making a lot of changes to my life which has me running around like a loon trying to

So, I've been thinking about all the stuff I want to write about and all the things I could write about and realized...I still love the name of my blog, but I don't talk about the kids all that much, do I? I decided that I'd look at whats going on between our family and games. How my opinions and viewpoints and feelings on certain points have been utterly knocked on their ass by my opinions

So yeah, I've been quieter than usual haven't I?   I didn't forget this place, I've just been super busy believe it or not. Shocking I know...Me...Busy, but its true. Back to School time is always crazy at my house. Supplies and clothing to buy, nervous kids to reassure, sleep schedule to adjust to...I've had plenty of thoughts but no time to actually sit down and write.  I'll be honest, School

so I've been on a bit of a binge. No, not a playing binge. A buying binge. Last week I bought a second wireless mic for lips, Singstar Vol2, FF13, Yakuza 4, Dynasty warriors Strikforce and Dynasty Warriors 6 for PS2 (I already have it for Xbox360). This weekend I bought Odin Sphere and No more Heroes 2. I also bought the game guides to Last Remnant and Red Dead Redemption. Of course I bought the

 I'm still sifting through all the E3 info...Games, commentary, critiques, controls, etc.etc.etc. But as I read about Kinect and Move and the complaints and shortcomings about them, not to mention the Wii comparisons, I'm left with one question...     What happened to fun?    Its a question I've been asking for a long time actually. I'm not going to run down my history of gaming (yet again) but I

As I've said before, Gaming is kind of new to me I started "seriously" gaming in 2002. My husband on the other hand, being ancient (kidding honey!), played Pong when it came out though he doesn't game much these days. He played Pokemon back when it was new and there were only 100 Pokemon to catch on the lovely dim green and black screen of a Gameboy. I on the other hand remember the

my blog is dead...seriously...I've done NOTHING in ages. I go through these weird internet cycles where first I'm everywhere posting all the time and then I just..stop. For like months, then I start again. I guess I just get burnt out. Its the same with gaming. First I stopped writing because I was gaming a lot. Then I was catching up on some reading and now its reruns and Pokemon. Its not

What have I been doing throughout this blog silence? Playing games of course. Have I finished writing...ANYTHING? Of course not. How can I write when I can waste most of my times singing off key in Lips, being annoyed by Claptraps in Borderlands and now killing horse after horse in Red Dead Redemption? I've got a list of things to do but...gaming is so much more fun. I'm starting to think I'm

Yes Yes...Still no damn Inferno..I know. Beat me with a wet noodle. You know me, I like to go on and on and on forever and beat you down with Wikipedia and a dictionary...so though I know I can probably shoot this thing out now, I won't be happy with it cause its not as researched as I would like. Its quite a daunting task I've given myself this time. But, I'm not here to talk about that today.

So, I know, I know, I've written more excuses than a teenager with a report due... But you know what? I have a REALLY REALLY good one this time.... My laptop got a really ugly virus...and it is now looping on the startup screen. I'd fix it but, I need to use the windows disk... Which I have and I'd use it if... my husband hadn't forgotten to screw in my disk drive the last time he took apart my

   I know the natives are getting restless, I've been asked by a few people where my damn Dante piece is, I've actually been asked by more people than I ever figured read my blog (in other ways more than 2). I promise, I have not forgotten. Not only have I not forgotten but I've also had quite a few other topics for future posts pop into my tiny over-worked brain. So, its still coming...I did say

   How're ya'll doing? I am currently undergoing the Sisyphean task of  note taking.     Note taking you say? How hard is that? I currently have between 7 and 10 tabs open and 3 separate notebooks that I'm jotting notes on.     Why three? Well, to keep everything in order. I know, I know, seems very disorderly but trust me, it'll make sense after I explain it.    Notebook  number 1 is for Dante

Hello hello.    I must apologize for my laziness. Got a bit overwhelmed with life the past few days and had to put the rest of my post on D.I. on hold. However, I have not forgotten about it. Not only have I not forgotten about it but I'm hard at work with my trusty pen and notebook taking notes for the continuation of my views on D.I.    Not only that, but I have run into my old notebook from

     I live a life of sickly leisure. Meaning, I don't work, I do very little housework and I lounge around popping pain pills like candy in between popping anti-crazy pills most of the time. For this and many other reasons I live the life of a virtual hermit, avoiding daylight like I'm one of Dracula's brides  and preferring the week long wait for a new game ordered off Amazon to actually

So I was chillin on a forum I frequent when a cute post about someone's nieces playing with handhelds somehow led to the mocking of certain games and that inevitably led to the whole Casual VS. Hardcore discussion.   Since these days my blog is a lot of "fluff" I decided to tackle the whole "defining you as a gamer" drama to help my "blog cred"  (yes, I'm smirking as I write all this).   In
