Good morning Shackers, your Friday looking good? Good. So EA isn't so happy with the used game situation, I'm not really sure how much consumers will appreciate their plight however. Speaking of plights, analysts don't think Warner Music has much of a chance of raising the cost of game-licensed songs. And Crytek wants you to know they're still grumpy about pirates. But hey, how about some explosions ?

  I'm about to move out of my depressing place into one a bit more expensive, a bit smaller, but not so depressing. The move will suck as I'm mostly on my own and have little sleep and what with classes and all I won't get any sleep in time for volleyball late tonight.

  Yeah, nothing. If any philly shackers want to hang in my house please do. I have this busted ankle and my gf is leaving me for the weekend. So I'm stuck at home being pitiful.
  
  We can watch some college football, phillies/cubs, play 360

  Hmmm I dunno.. I picked up Devil May Cry 4 so i'll be playing that. Saturday my friend is hosting a Settlers of Catan game (which means Catan, BBQ and beer), and his gay brother will be there, who is a really funny guy so that'll be fun.
  
  That leaves Sunday and Monday which will probably just be me playing video games, watching movies and enjoying a bag of greens

  Tonight: dinner with my gf, gf's brother, and their mom. Then I'm going to lie in bed with the gf until she's asleep and play TW muted. Kill me.
  
  Tomorrow: Ikea and then 85 mile drive and help my gf pack up her apartment, no video games or shack
  
  Sunday: Helping the gf move.
  
  Monday: Not profiting.
