We all just lost...Anyway, because not all of us play WoW 24/7. After seeing the title mentioned about a gazillion times in the GameFAQs' Top Ten lists, I finally got a copy of Elite Beat Agents. What can I say, this thing r0x0rz uR b0x0rz. Imagine you just lost your job, you got dumped by your girl/boyfriend, you have a huge loan to pay, you have no money and your house has just been evicted. You stand there looking at the door of your apartment with your jaw dropped on the ground and shout from the depths of your lungs: "HEEEEAAAAALLLPPPP". And what do you get? Three black-suited sunglass wearing agent guys hop from out of nowhere. And what do they do? THEY START FRIGGIN' JAMMIN right next to you. And they dance sooooo haaard by the time they're finished you've got a better work, reunited with your girl/boyfriend, got your apartment back, paid your loan and now own many many riches. The thing that makes this game seem harder than it is, is the thing that you're laughing/giggling through most of the stages. Only from Japan.

Wow! I had no idea The Game was on the Internet! I've been playing it for a good few years, got it from my brother, but I've never met anyone else who plays it (of course I mention it to everyone whenever I lose it, which isn't very frequent... thanks Grail!)
Currently playing: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King
Great game, combines a little Sim City with some classic dungeon crawling, except without you having to actually do any dungeon crawling. Instead, you send the adventurers with the best stats to do it for you. You get money depending on population, which you spend on adventurer abilities and items... Probably the best game anyone will ever play at about £10, £15 if you want to buy a few extras.

eh guys you've not seen the game prices here...
Even the official copies of many games cost like 6-10 euros. That is, for they have to compete with the pirates, which actually make very good quality products with CD boxes and all that, with a complete printed instruction if cracking is needed (usually it is not), and their CDs are often better than the official ones. I gave up playing Sims 2 when I uninstalled my pirate copy and bought myself an official one (and itwas expensive, like 30 euros something) and one of the CDs there was bad and didn't work. And I couldn't get a refund coz 2 weeks passed.

The girlfriend and I got quite a lot of money back on our heating bill this year, and decided to spend it all on ourselves immediately. This resulted in our very first console ever. This is the copy/pasted receipt. Guess which two games I've NOT chosen!  1 x PlayStation 3 Console 80GB 1 x Guitar Hero III With Wireless Guitar 1 x Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 1 x Assassin's Creed 1 x Race Driver GRID (TOCA) 1 x Virtua Tennis 3 1 x SingStar Vol. 2 (incl. microphones) 1 x Buzz! Quiz TV (incl. wireless buzzers) |

They ought to, the greedy bastards. But no, we simply paid too much on our bills, and therefore got a lot of money back. Money that we didn't calculate with having, so we hurried and spent it all before reason set in.

That thing you mentioned, Grail, is it multiplayer or single?
Can't say graphics are very good for a single player game..

Single-player. The multiplayer/net mode is planned to be added sometime during November, I think.
The graphics on units are meant to be flexible (meaning it's easy to change whether they're really horrible or really good - I'm not playing at full settings) so that you can play fights with 100 fluid units + a lot of spilling blood + weapons on the ground + ragdolls ("realistically" moving corpses) + lots of static dead corpses on the battleground at the same time without your computer exploding. I've heard some people tinker the game so that they can have a 1000 troops on the field at once.

Slightly before and now still after returning from vacation I somehow found myself playing other games apart from WoW. Somehow when I log on, everything seems boring, and after running on some of chars here and there I log out and go to my old favourites like GTA or Civilization IV (that occupied yesterday's evening and will probably continue)...
Weird, for 1,5 years I didn't play basically anything apart from World of Warcraft.

Or if not, then you start playing some game that you can't let go off for a long while before returning to WoW. Last time it was GTA IV that I played like a madman 24/7 'till it was through, then returned to WoW. |

It seems I've created myself a new morning routine of cup of coffee and a game of Tropico before going to work.
I just like being called Presidente I guess...
