Wasn't my first digital download, but that game is great and is probably the only game I played on the 360 for more than an hour.

Do you know which those are? I don't know what the title of the first library episode is.
Welcome to Night Vale is a strange mix of humor, semi-lovecraftian horror and a local radio station. You can download it on itunes for free and, for the most part, you don't need to know the history of previous episodes. The storytelling can be really interesting, there are some reallly good episodes I've enjoyed a lot. My only warning is that for maximum enjoyment you might want to skip the music interludes. They're (a) not required in any way and (b) the interludes from early episodes were really bad, I laughed out loud once.

Have you tried Our Darker Purpose? It's a twin stick rogue-like shooter much like Isaac but has enough of its own ideas that it's enjoyable on it's own merits, IMO.

You should play the last Deus Ex, the new one is in production and pretty hype. I almost never play shooters actually. Last one I played was probably RE4 or maybe one of the Metroid Primes. Is it a dislike or just playing other games? There have been a few pretty solid ones lately. Maybe I'll play some. I still have Spec Ops: The Line which I hear is really good. Not to mention all the Mass Effect games. I suppose a dislike? I dunno I don't hate shooters but I don't generally enjoy them much for whatever reason.
And Coma it's supposed to be well over 30 the day they go, even stopping for breaks is a lot of walking around/physical exertion, especially with a < 3 year old. It sucks because if this were last year after surgery I'd probably be able to handle it.

I've heard of/seen a little of Our Darker Purpose but the lack of exposure/popularity never made me feel like it was worth it from what I had seen.
Also lol for some reason I thought it was three episodes. The Library is actually 5 episodes with a 1 episode 'prologue' if you will (which features me being an absolute moron gameplay/RP-wise). Episode 18 'Book Burning' is probably where you want to start, which was a good one I think. The BEST was episode 20 though.

Yeah there's a lot of stuff to do, there's the giant food pavilion (which I wouldn't really be able to partake of), basic rides/games, but it's not on the same entertainment level (or price for that matter) of something like Canada's Wonderland. It's simpler.

The free shows were the highlight for me (parkour/x-pogo stunts/lumberjack challenge/carribian parade) spent ~58 bucks for me and my gf to go on like 5 rides. got a deep fried mars bar and the weekend we went was the food truck frenzy so i got a sick steak sandwich and poutine too. also was the craft beer festival but it was also expensive. I just ment overall it was like 5 fall fairs put together in my opinion.

We had that discussion months ago about games that aren't "meant" to be fun delivering a message--that game's probably a decent example of a game with a meaningful message that probably was not made to be all that fun.

@phyvo: I consistently enjoy Night Vale's weather. Did you happen to attend the live show in St. Louis or are you too far away for that?
Night Vale is excellent. The narrative doesn't really get going immediately; they start more as vignettes. But eventually it develops some continuity that is both terrifying and heartwarming.

I think that's interesting. There is a lot of commentary to be made about games as mindless entertainment or on media (not just games) and how it is desensitizing people. I've heard a lot about how the game hits people, which is why I jumped on it on a sale.

I feel like Wave should play Castlevania.
Or maybe he should put it to a vote. Not actually sure if he's actually done that before.
Also Soniv it sucks to hear that your Friday morning was as brutal as it was. Good thing it wasn't Monday though, otherwise I'm sure you would have gotten shot in the lungs as well or something.
Also I had questions about what are acceptable posting topics in this thread. Do you guys know which moderator I should take my questions to?
+ Show Spoiler +I'm joking about Wave playing Castlevania. Guy should be free to live life as he wants.

Depends which Castlevania we're talking here.

I enjoyed Portrait of Ruin a lot!

I've played Circle of the Moon and Symphony of the Night. I suppose I could play some others but meh
