Pretty much 100% of my former TV time is now spent online.
I play games on the way to work, on breaks, on the way from work, and when I'm doing other stuff.

Handhwlds are amazing, and there are so many great new games on the DS that i'm finding it very hard to keep up :cheer

The RDM is going to spend a chunk of his wedding gift money on a DS.

If that's not love, he doesn't know what is.

I'm bored.

Recommend me some GBA games, plz.
Don't bother with Pokemon, or the FF Remakes, since I already have them.

Oh, and I can't run Riviera.

Meh.

The RDM doesn't have time for console games now that he's practically married.

For the shower? WTF? That's extravagant and way messed up. You can milk it for way more than a DS.

The Cappucinno machine cost like half as much as a DS. It doesn't make very good cappuccino, from what the RDM can gather, but can brew up some good espresso.

Not that the RDM would ever consume such beverages.

He might actually be allergic to coffee.

It doesn't matter the cost. It's the statement that it makes: "I require so much luxury that I can't be assed to get out of the shower to make myself a cappucinno."

Well, I'm sure that some people have setups like that, and yeah, I should have made the connection with wedding and shower, but I.....

What would be the point of that!?

Your coffee would get all wet.

It's just not feasable(ible?).

Unless...




Nope. Still not.

Me no do handhelds. They make me travel sick if I'm on the move for some reason, and if I'm at home, I prefer to play on a big screen, my eyes ain't all that.

But theres plenty of good shit on the DS and PSP :check

Castlevania double pack. 2 great games in one, quite hard to find these days.

And on the topic of handheld consoles, the only consoles I own are handheld (PSP and DS) and I love them very much :) My own TV is too shit to play any proper consoles on it tbh.

Ninja Five-O is actually pretty entertaining: 2D Sidescroll platformer, You're a ninja, save people, cut other people in two... gets frustrating at times though, especially if you try getting through a level without getting hit.

Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars (I didn't even know it was on the GBA till recently O.o) actually plays pretty decently. No FMVs but you'll get all that classic point & click action and witty text that the original PC version churned out.

Broken Sword royally fucked me off, so I'm gonna have to decline that one.
The rest I'll look into, when I'm not in my freakin' parent's house with crappy PC. I forgot to bring any games consoles with me :(
