I can't decide... order D3 online, or camp out at the mall. Never been much of a mallrat (it's not the hot spot here as it seems to be in the movies... or maybe I'm just too poor to notice), but I don't think going a day beyond release will be possible here. Sure, I know, 20 some hours of excitement and the game's over, but you gotta live for the rush.
I was talking to Caleb last night at the movie... about TechTV... and it occured to me that The Screensavers has gotten really, really bad. Normally I wouldn't say anything about it, because I loved the show so much when it was 2 hours and shot in what looked like someone's basement, but I just can't watch it anymore. I don't know exactly what it is either. Does Kevin really annoy me that much? Was my attachment to the show really just some fleeting obsession with the duo of Patrick and Leo? Did I become a lost soul when Morgan left and the set changed? I don't know... but I hate G4 for doing this to my favorite channel. They aren't even gamers. They're some kind of highly paid poser wanna-be thing that doesn't play games unless there's a check attached to it.
I've also heard that Unscrewed (you know... the show that did a week long special on pot as well as an entire show recounting all of the porn stars that have been on) has been neutered. Looks like they can't give out web-addresses and have to do a disclaimer before their hazardous dark-tips. This is the same show that has melted countless pieces of hardware with thermite, designed a flame-thrower from a water gun (even learning the hard way that you have to replace the tip with something metal, or you get a very nasty bomb in your hands), and several wonderful electric shock pain inducers. All with no warning. Yeah censorship. I guess the warnings keep the kids safe, right? Oh wait... I've seen CKY so I know that's not true...

D3....for a moment I thought you were talking about Diablo 3 (obviously I don't keep up w/ game releases) and started to prepare to not see my husband for the next six months. Boys and their games :)
We have a guy at work that's also part of our LAN group. So far in the year we've been doing this he's been banned from going to the LANs by his wife until he started passing classes, been the guy at work everyone knows not to go to for anything important because he's always playing games on his laptop, and was recently in trouble with his wife for playing Knights of the Old Republic until 3am. Not to mention the only one to get it from the IT guys for using all of the universities bandwidth downloading game movies.
We're considering getting him some help. Seriously. Though he is one of the best players we have...
I don't have the power to ban my husband from doing anything, but there have been times I wished I had. Diablo 2 was new when we first got married...all I can say is he spent thirty bucks buying something "really rare" for his character on Ebay. I did put my foot down after that.
