Morning Discussion

The greatest mystery of human physiology is, without a doubt, that Friday feeling. Debate has raged throughout the medical establishment as to where exactly the sensation originates, and what it even is. The two current leading hypotheses are Dr. Ike's view that bran muffins forced down during the week as a concession to the societal pressure placed upon one's self-image as a manifestation of the collective unconsciousness purchased by fizzy drink giants and twisted into a talisman for the Illuminati, clearing nicely on Thursday night to leave adrenal glands gushing freely, while Dave Down the Pub posits "Ahhhhh come on, gis a kiss ya miserable git."

This Friday, Shacknews, be sure to scrutinise your feeling with laser precision. Your discovery could revolutionise medicine as we know it.

            WTF no. I beat it 6 times on PS3 and it's even more awesome on PC. Why do you have to be so horribly wrong? :(

            Yes, I know it isn't "classic" Residen Evil. I have the whole series on GC and PS2. But that doesn't make RE5 bad. It's just different. I NEED A HURRRRRB!

          I've been terrible at sitting down and finishing it. I'll play a chapter, put it back on the shelf and leave it for a month. Last night I finished chapter 5, and my goal is get to 8 by Sunday.

      I'm going to friggin' finish Final Fantasy IV on the DS, then Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition. In and around that will be League of Legends, maybe some DoW2 if people are up for it. Perhaps UT3? I'll be grabbing it on the cheap from the steam sale we should get a thing together.

      Halo Wars and Beyond Good & Evil. Trying to whittle down the backlog before the holiday season starts in earnest. But I'll be picking up ODST next week so.. yeah. It's a battle I'm constantly losing.
