If you are with us, this mission should be no issue for you.

(Don’t spoil yourself!  It’s so much more fun that way!)

Agents deployed. Watch the static. The Secret War has begun.

The Secret World

“The same thing we do every night, Pinky – try to take over the world!”

Unlock in-game items and exclusive content, garner praise and glory, and crush your rivals.

Without question the most fun I’ve ever had waiting for a game.  The Secret War, for Funcom’s The Secret World, has begun!

Join us!  *evil laugh and hand-wringing*

Huh. Gotta be better than donating plasma...

There’s plenty of game quotes (sometimes mistranslated) that stick with you. The ones that invariably begin applying to important life events, or the ones you use to lure fellow gamers out of hiding at a party  (“Hey Joe, remember when the platform was sliding into the fire pit and I said ‘Goodbye’, and you were like, ‘No way!’ And then I was all, ‘We pretended we were going to murder you.’  That was great.”).

Or when we attempt to subconsciously control our fellow man (“Hey Bob, would you kindly take a long walk off a short pier?  Yeah, that’d be great, thanks.”)  Hmm, maybe that one’s just me.

SO! Test the First (shout-outs on the Link Dead Gaming Podcast for the best!):

What are your favorite video game quotes? And why?  Comment on this post and hook me up.

Ah, how I missed thee, Descent… let the nausea begin!

Anyone who has decoded my Bio on Link Dead Gaming knows that I loved Descent.

Well!  GoG.com has a Descent 1+2 package on sale right now for $2.99.  Let me tell you, I slid down ye olde internetz zip line as fast as my bandwidth could carry me and downloaded that puppy fast.

Gogogo!  ❤

(Props to JTM Games for the info 😀  )

I don’t look like a ghost, do I?

I must admit, life is just a little less exciting since I blew through Silent Hill HD so fast… although I suppose another play to get the Dog ending would be worth the effort.

Waiting around for The Secret World is just plain painful.  SO, it is my hope that someone can give me some titles to play in the meantime.  I have no idea why but I can’t seem to bring myself to get back to Heavy Rain – I ended up just sort of dropping it, which is a shame, as I understand the story is great.  I just can’t get used to the control scheme.

At some point I’ll be more inspired to post some deeply philosophical ravings about some other game – for now, I’ll just see if I can’t ingest a tremendous amount of coffee just to wake the hell up.
