I mean in the sense that it's making me want to buy a PS4 before I originally planned because I want to play it.

I'm a big fan of most COD campaigns. I thought Ghosts was one of the best to date.

recently saw a video of this bearded a capella guy do a version of One-Winged Angel from FFVII and it just made me remember how badass that song made that final battle. I mean, the final boss has opera singers singing his name!

FFVII has some amazing musical moments like that. I remember the Jenovahs having really unexpectedly creepy music for their boss fights. Best game ever.

You guys should have a listen to the OC Remixes if you've never checked it out before. They've done some really sick tracks for that game.

I'm tempted to get Alien: Isolation. The IGN review says it starts out great, but dissolves into a shitty game of frustration.

Did anyone play Colonial Marines? Was it really that bad?

I pre-ordered it, played it for maybe an hour, and traded it in. Yes, it is really that bad.

My other half had been playing Skyrim since about 9 this morning. He quit at six O'clock when Simpsons was on and I asked why he was so tired. It was because his shoulders were tired from too much... something. I don't know. Magic spells I guess.

Skyrim is like World of Warcraft, a veritable life sucking vortex. I could've come over to your house and spent all day bonking your brains out, and your other half wouldn't have noticed.
