    It has a kusoge sort of charm to it. I will only play that game for streamers, because I'd go crazy trying to enjoy that alone.

    That line is a running joke in our household. Anytime shoes are brought up, someone is obligated to make a crack about seeing Jesus.

    okay, Santee. The last of your gifts arrived today and they are SPECTACULAR. So, once I get this all wrapped they should be heading your way. Hopefully, you'll have them by the end of next week, depending on how much blood UPS demands for their services.

    Going to be posting my santas gift on Monday. Im pleased with it, I think I covered all the bases. One gift I know they'll like, one gift Im pretty sure they'll like, one gift that im unsure about but is totally different from what they are probably expecting but I feel suits their interests and a few little bits and pieces.

    @cj iwakura yeah there's an English release too - it's actually the last Saturn game ever released over here.

    Unfortunately that version is crazy rare, and I wasn't sure you could play PAL anyway. ;D

    So the creative thing I did for Santee, I had my daughter with me and she did a similar project. When Santee get's his gift (which should be shipped Mondayish), I think I'm going to post images of her efforts. It could be just proud dad mode, but for having little practice, it turned out pretty good.

    I was going to post something about people being way too nervous about not getting their Christmas presents out in time, what with it only being thanksgiving week. Then I remember that I did it so quickly because I was in a panic about them not getting out soon enough. So, yeah.

  • crucialityfactorcrucialityfactor Registered User regular
    I have all of my Santee's stuff assembled. But I'm not sending it out until at earliest the 1st. Gotta let the tension and anxiety stew for a bit.

  • AaronKIAaronKI Registered User regular
    A second GoGbomb showed up in my inbox today from @Elkatas. Along with a PM from him telling me to check my inbox, which is good because I'm a moron and forgot to remove the filter that automatically marks GoG emails as "read". :P

    I'm going to have to leave in a little while so instead of making a rushed gift post, I'm waiting until later in the day so I can do it right the first time.

    Okay, I might have drank too much eggnog last night, which prompted the video of the song-that-shall-not-be-named. As a way to apologize, I present you this one;

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vD2V6VvmBEo

    My girlfriend introduced me to the movie a couple of years ago, and it's become a yearly tradition to watch it on Thanksgiving to get us ready for the Christmas season. This year, even though we're in two completely different states, we're keeping the tradition alive by watching it and keeping Skype on.

    I love all those movies, but Love Actually is THE MOVIE, guys.

    I mean, it's got Bill Nighy as an aging rock star with the best Christmas song outside of Father Christmas. It's got Hugh Grant as the Prime Minister hooking up with his cute intern. It's got Liam Neeson not murdering anyone. It's got the dude from the Walking Dead also not murdering anyone. It's got hardcore pornography. It's got, well, everything.

    It has the sweetest love story ever written about two people filming a sex scene. It's just adroable.

    The only reason I don't put it on the TV in my shop every day is because one of the many plot lines is about two porn actors falling in love. A good 15 minutes of the movie is set on a porn set.

    I'm more partial to the hardcore pornography in the Muppet Christmas Carol.

    Plus one of the porn actors is Bilbo Baggins.

    I think they only recognizable British actor they forgot to add was Michael Caine.

    Another haul of GoG Goodies from Santa @Elkatas!

    Darwinia
    AaronKI-2012-11-21-GOG1_Darwinia.jpg
    I think I'm going to win some Darwinia Awards while playing this! Because those little guys are probably all going to die embarrassing deaths under my command. I've never actually played an RTS before unless Brutal Legend counts, but Darwinia doesn't look too intimidating.

    Symphony
    AaronKI-2012-11-21-GOG2_Symphony.jpg
    Music Lasers! Looks like Beat Hazard meets Galaga. I already know what the first song I'll be trying with it is.

    Torchlight
    AaronKI-2012-11-21-GOG3_Torchlight.jpg
    The art and colors in this game look gorgeous. Being one of the three people in the world who have never played Diablo or a Diablo clone, Santa decided to correct this. :P

    Alan Wake's American Nightmare
    AaronKI-2012-11-21-GOG4_AmericanNightmare.jpg
    He's got a battery powered nail gun with a broken safety guard and he's not afraid to use it! I've been interested in the Alan Wake franchise for a while.

    To The Moon
    AaronKI-2012-11-21-GOG5_ToTheMoon.jpg
    I've heard a lot of good things about this game. And it's got a lighthouse! I like lighthouses. (This game is going to make me cry, isn't it?)

    Thanks again, Santa! These are going to keep me busy well into the new year.
