So, in case anyone pre-ordered Modern Warfare 2 or Left 4 Dead 2 via steam (FTP on a PC, not some console crap) your purchase can not now start pre-loading. w00t w00t! MW2 is just going to be BAD ASS (at least single player). Multiplayer remains to be seen.

BTW - The game is just FANTASTIC! The SpecOps missions are great, the graphics intense and the story (so far) is pretty cool.

so much for WoW... though only half joking... I am very interested in seeing Diablo III and hopefully it isn't MMO only

It'll have a single player campaign and online with much better anti-cheating security than 1 & 2, so I'm excited.

Glad to hear that. Doubt I will be all zero-day on it or anything, but I'll probably pick it up long before it hits the $20 rack. Have you heard anything about them doing a console version as well? The D2 console sucked so bad...

You mean D1? D2 never had a console version and if D3 is going to, it'll be years away.

wow, yeah, guess it has been that long... almost 10 years ago... I did wander on over to blizzard... There is some scuttlebutt about a console version. The only reason I care is that it will increase the profit for the gamemaker so that they aren't "required" to make it subscription-based. I fucking hate online gaming

For all the hate Facebook games get, they're some of the most played computer games in all history. Up there with minesweeper and such. I wish I had gotten on that train about two years ago, because Farmville's putting someone's entire extended family through college. Hardcore gamers aren't the only audience.

Besides you're in no position to judge since you think rhythm games suck. ;)

Man I had this huge snarky reply demeaning everything that internet one-liner zingers represent. But since you're my friend and not some pseduonymous internet ass, I'll just ask if you can reply again with something cogent, relevant, and reflexively accurate.

Well I appreciate that. I'm just saying just because a fuck ton of people do something doesn't make it awesome. Look at New Moon's opening weekend figures.

Haha, thats funny. Who here hasn't gotten a blowjob from a midget? Although, due to midget hookers being easier to choke for obvious reasons, I tend to run through them pretty fast.

I didn't say they were awesome, I said they were some of the most played. Anyway, "awesome" is a subjective measure. Remember, quite a few people here think rhythm games are "not awesome". If I were an author and all of you thought my vampire books and movies sucked but 1 million tweens (and their doe-eyed moms) bought each one, I'd keep taking "not awesome" right to the bank my friend.

as hard as it may be to believe, my wife and I use the same facebook account. After her fucking whackadoodle idea to "decrease her internet footprint," it took a whole week or so til she got sick of watching me play. So now I play like 3 games (which, is albeit, too fucking many, admitted), the rest are hers

haha... well, since Facebook has a TON of privacy settings now, decreasing the footprint shouldn't be so hard.

Well, I'm glad to hear that. Listen, I've been fatally poisoned, there's probably a psychopath heading over there to torture and kill you as we speak, but don't bother getting out of bed, I'll be there in a flash... Maybe you could fry me up a waffle or something, kay?

Ha! I had made a bet with myself on how long it would be, and she didn't last very long if it was only a week. I thought I was way off since she didn't join back up but now I see her "work around". ;)

yeah, its pretty ridiculous. Don't tell her I told you or my death will be swift in in my sleep, but she actually has a "game" account now. Mostly because I wouldn't let her load any additional games on my account and I hate when she posts shit like the aforementioned tulip bullshit.

So she'll make an anonymous game account to play games that could have security/virus issues, but she won't have a real profile for fear of the internet stalking and data leakage. Funny.

This is a really good cover story... I think you really did want to send us flowers.

Ok, I think I've got enough of a handle on Facebook now, I think it's time to break out some greasemonkey scripts so I don't have to see some of this crap. It's the wifes fault... pfftshaw!
