Don't expect frequent updates, I only post when something strikes me as particularly interesting...

  Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

  Hey, everybody.

  You might have noticed I've been away for about 3 months. How has everyody been this past... quarter of a year? Real life has been calling, so I decided to quit GS cold-turkey for a while.

  It's been a busy time, including, but not limited to:

  • A birthday.
  • Looking for (and finding!) work.
  • College transfer shennanigans.
  • Family troubles.

  ... and many other things!

  For now, I'm just back to keep an eye on all of the E3 news.

  The DS Reccomendation Thread is still going to go unattended and unloved for now, which is just as well because the posts are over the character limit and it would be easier to just start from scratch. If somebody wants to make a new one to pick up my slack, that'd be fine too.

  I do plan to come back eventually, but being a grownup keeps you busy.

  Gaming progress, and more.

  Blargh. Time to get back to classes tomorrow.

  

  Oh well, It's no big deal. Just less time for games again. On that note: I got a lot of gaming time in. During the Summer, I started tracking all of the games I had unfinished, and have been trying to finish them. Much easier thanks to Backloggery.com, by the way.

  • Over the summer, I finished 6 games.
  • Started 3 playthroughs of old games, which I didn't finish.
  • Nearly finished 3 others.
  • Made some progress in 4 others.

  
  

  Overall, not bad. Any other Gamespotters out there get any quality gaming during the hotter months?

  *Ker-Snap*

  ...is the the sound my computer made. It seems that it was a little off-balance, and the fan over the graphics card got caught on something, causing it to snap off and break the plastic frame holding it in place. It still works, but no more graphics-intensive games for a while I think.

  It was a pretty competent Nvidia GeForce 6600. I don't do too much PC gaming, but I'd like something comparable.

  Anyone got a suggestion for a relatively cheap replacement?
