https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/images/smilies/hide.gif I'm perfectly calm, thank you. But could use a cigarette.

If it wasn't stupid it wouldn't be worth doing.

Nah I'm good. It's summer 2022 and the air conditioning never worked right anyway.

What a couple of dicks!

Well enjoy your time off before getting back to the grind!

My only regret is that this is interrupting me collecting anime dickgirl porn.

Usually I'm playing retro arcade games, here's my most recent:

Motos (like Bumper Cars but better, but should never be turned into a real thing lol)
Mr. Do's Wild Ride (little known sequal)
Ms. Pacman (can't get past the 3rd (Orange) maze grrrrr!!!!)
Battlantis (this is the hardest single screen shooter I've ever played)
Trick Shot (overhead Run & Gun...can't even beat the first boss haha!!)

Just finished another play through of the Mass Effect trilogy and it's been years since I did a renegade play through so I'm starting from scratch and thoroughly checking the codex which I probably haven't done since my first play through in 2007.

I'm playing Ghost Recon on Xbox One. Team killing online is fun.

I'm big into horror games, and one hit my radar called Madison that dropped about a week ago. Been playing it with the wife and it's actually incredibly tense. The atmosphere of the game is utterly oppressive. It's probably the game that's most impressed me with the PT concept since Visage. And yeah, it's pretty damn frightening. Of course, being a tried-and-true horror game, it's got some pretty funky and frustrating puzzles, but if that's the price of admission, I'm happy to deal with it. At one point, not to spoil too much of the plot (which is actually presented really well), you go back in time and listen to the confession of a woman in a church confessional - she married a German after the war and later found out he operated gas chambers - said he was dead behind the eyes - she was confessing to killing him and asking God's forgiveness - shortly thereafter, the ghost of this Nazi hunts you down through the Church as you go back and forth in time to try to solve a puzzle involving candles and biblical artwork. It's pretty cool and the graphics are amazing.

Played through Portal last night on my Switch. They had both Portal games for $20 on the Nintendo store so I decided to play through the first one again as it has been years since I last played it on the orange box for the 360. Never played Portal 2. I'll get to that this week I suppose.

Gotta say, what a fantastic game. Excited for Portal 2 which I heard is even better. Also, even after playing and finishing the game before, the feeling of accomplishment and glee I felt after getting to the cake and hearing the end credits song suprised me. So wholesome for some reason. Love it.

Man Orange Box was the ****! What a package that was.
