Honorable Mentions
I didn’t do much yesterday. UPS didn’t arrive with Mass the Fect 2 until around 5:30pm, and I kind of just sat around my room until then. So, I know what you’re asking, “Zach, you handsome lump, what did you do after you got out of class at 2:00pm up until the obese UPS man dropped a steaming pile of goodness in my mailbox?”
Well, I decided to try a few things out.
First, I had a three way.
Second, I decided to download a gem of an Xbox 360 Indie Game. I was scrolling through the top downloaded indie games, when our very own Geoff Pado noticed one he recognized called “The Impossible Game.”
By now, you all should have a good idea of what I like. If not, let me say that I like to be punished when I play video games. Now, some of you may be taking that the wrong way. I like to be punished when I do things wrong, like not pull the trigger when I should have, or jump directly into a master robot. I really hate it when I get punished for unreasonable things, like die by the hands of some unreachable NPC manning a turret in the distance during a mission in Modern Warfare 2.
The Impossible Game only has one button that tells some red block to jump while the level’s terrain, riddled with spikes and pits, scrolls beneath you. It’s a new form of frustration that I want you to be experience, so do me a favor and drop eighty Microsoft Points ($1.00) to play this sadistically difficult game.
Third, I decided (just now) to tell you all about our new amazing comments system. Chances are, if you stumbled upon this web-thing, you were directed here by Twitter or Facebook. Well, now you can sign in to those web services in our comment section, and tell me I’m wrong about Mario Kart 64 and Asshole the Hedgehog.
It couldn’t be simpler, just click on the comments after every post, and follow the obvious instructions.
This new comments system really excites me, and I guarantee I’ll post more if it increases feedback.

P.S. You can expect many Mass Effect 2 related posts in the nearest of futures.
UPDATE!!!
Just a quick notice of a deal I’m sure Zach would have linked to if he’d been awake:
Critically-acclaimed “sleeper hit” Psychonauts is available on Steam for only $2 today. Get it here.
