I guess I am blessed with immunity to stuff like this. Of course it helps that I have CBS (Cheap Bastard Syndrome). My one son has spent at least a couple hundred dollars in Fortnite (He gets PSN cards for birthday/Christmas) and “I am like sooooo it’s just a skin?” On one hand I am like well cool, its not pay to win,…

It does not go into detail, but when I hear or read adult son (in a context like this), I think there may be developmental issues. If micro transactions were a thing when we were younger, I could see my sister spending a lot of money and not “get it”. She is in her mid 40s now, a fully functioning adult with a job,…

They usually end up in the used bargin bin at Gamestop. :)

I am super pumped about this week. Excited for Link’s Awakening and Untitled Goose Game. I played Link’s Awakening as a kid on an original Game Boy and my son, who is six and we call him Link (short for Lincoln), loves playing Breath of the Wild. He is excited for this game as well. Every morning for the past week or…

I am super excited about the Goose game. I have anxiously waiting for it for well over a year now. I generally don’t buy games when they first come out (I am cheap and wait for sales), but this might be an instant purchase :)

Isn’t this exactly what every manufacture does with sales? The best selling car in its class**

They must have just stopped offering then, because I thought they still were like a year ago.  They must have wised up. :)

The last time I checked my main character in WoW has well over month played, so literally over a thousand hours. That was just one character. I would have to dig in to find an exact amount, but I bet I easily have over 3,000 hours logged in WoW.......

I was tempted to buy the warranty when I bought my RAM about two years ago, but decided against (Nothing against the warranty, I just tend not to keep vehicles until they die). If knew I was going to have the truck for life, I would totally buy it (especially considering my air suspension completely died with only…

I can’t blame FCA for this one.

I read that wrong to start. I read “This week it’s just the oil pressure sensor” (implying that is the only thing that broke this week). I need more sleep....or to stop judging FCA. Ya can only pick one :)

I generally wait for games to go on sale because I am so behind on games (I still have FF15 in the package unopened), but I am with you. I remember my parents buying me a PS1 from Sears of all places with FF7. They gave out a t-shirt with it, and I wore that shirt out.  I may have to break my “wait til it goes on…

Not quite the same but this is similar to Napster and music piracy. If you make something difficult legally (or in this case unavailable) then people will find a way whether legal or not. Once Spotify and similar services became readily available music piracy dropped off quite a bit (at least to my knowledge it did,…

We used to have dogs before we adopted two children (now teenagers). I honestly miss coming home and having someone excited to see me (you know cause teenagers totally do that......). I have been wanting to get another dog, but the more I think about it, the less I feel comfortable about it. They would be alone for…

As a Priest I have declared it my duty to buff every single person I pass/encounter if they do not already have it.  It is my way of saying “Blessing upon you.”  Which now that I say that, I should make a macro so I literally say it out loud.

I am telling the urge is strong.  The only thing holding me back is a full time job, 3 kids, and college classes I have like a couple hours a week to play games.

That actually sounds really good.

I kind of hoped they would take the Starcraft/Diablo approach to WoW classic and have it be a one time charge vs behind a subscription.  When I found it is was a part of the regular $15/mo sub with no option on its own, I was disappointed.

I am seriously wondering how long this will last though? Assuming they don’t roll out more servers, will the active population be the same in a week? A month? Don’t get me wrong, I liked vanilla WoW, but how many people are checking it out, seeing the vastly different system, and saying, “Wow, this kind of sucks. I am…

Meh. Cam Newton did dumb hats first.
