You get to keep the 360 backwards-compatible games forever when your Live elapses. You lose access to any Xbox One exclusive games (see: Sunset Overdrive, Goat Simulator, etc.)

But... can you still put baskets on vendor’s heads and steal all their stuff?

I have to say, nothing makes me enjoy things I hate more like fun accessories. Case in point: I hated packing my lunch for work, so I ate out a lot. Partly laziness, partly I ate like crap. So I invested about $45 into some adorable little lunch containers that all stack together and now I pack a filling, healthy…

I let my Prime subscription run out this month. As much as I loved Amazon Prime Music I found a really good replacement with Spotify (free version... waiting for a decent deal to go Premium or stick with free). They have the What’s Your Rashee soundtrack! Amazon Music didn’t have that! SOLD!

My all-time favorite unmarked police car in my area is the Ford Explorer (looks just like that one in video) with those silly family stick figures on the back window. It patrols up and down the same stretch of road and every time I see it I laugh. No ones suspects the family-friendly vehicle with the slightly ripped…

Aye. Thanks to a clever use of Audible codes, I managed to get about 15 free books through them. I got all of The Passage series by Justin Cronin - I’d read the first book when it first came out but in a month I re-”listened” to it, and am now almost done with the second one. I also got through I, Claudius and…

To be honest, the first time I saw a trailer for this game I laughed at the art style. Like Heavenly Sword had a baby with Tomb Raider. All flailing hair particles and weird creatures. Looking at it again last week when YouTube forced it’s trailer on me before another video, I really sat and looked at the entire game…

My first thought when I saw the first photo: I would kill for ANY room in my house to have that much natural sunlight.

Unrelated, but related: I finally beat Uncharted 2 (I’ve beaten 1 and 3 but somehow 2 escaped me over and over) and I learned the “pull them over the edge” trick. My boyfriend was in disbelief. I would just hang and the baddies would come over towards me and WHOOP OVER YOU GO. I did this for pretty much the entire…

Conversation Hearts are made (if you get the right brand) by Necco, who makes my all-time, 1847 candy... Necco wafers. My mother worked at a drugstore and when I would hang around with her there when there was no sitter Necco wafers were the cheapest available candy so she would buy me a pack. I’d sit inside the phone…

I bought this for my boyfriend for Christmas... uhhh, he doesn’t own any way to use it. I just got it because he likes Zelda and it was the only one left in the store. I just saw it as I passed by, sitting on the bottom shelf facing the wall.

I’m wondering if it might be more linked to the repetitive looking in that direction at the second monitor - vision is a frail, finicky thing.

Haha - it’s actually your “code name” in Zombies, Run! (http://zombiesrun.wikia.com/wiki/Runner_5)... it just kinda stuck out to me so I started using it everywhere. :-)

I find the idea of buying a home full of the previous owner’s items terrifying... but I am also a huge scardy-cat who thinks that they could be possessed by the angered spirit of the previous tenants or something to that effect.

I love Imogen Heap, since the first time I heard her in the end credits of Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe. I was fascinated by her Mi.Mu glove a couple years ago....

Aye - according to the executives music makes you “work harder”. I like music on my own terms, not constant... especially at Christmas when they played holiday music from December 1st until December 31st.

I’m not 100% sure this is entirely related, but thought I’d leave it here....

I did this in Star Ocean: The Second Story. The main character had to have like... Dexerity or something as one of his starter “stats” to be good at pickpocketing so I would restart dozens of times until he had it.

Every so often I scream out “FORESOOTH!” when my boyfriend doesn’t expect it. It’s the only thing either of us remember about the game - the horrible old English acting.

I was playing in Japanese, until my 6-year-old nephew started watching me play and he really wanted to understand what was going on.
