Ahh, never went to any of those creepy organisations and I'm not sure even the ones we have in the UK teach that sort of thing, especially as there are no camps anyway, just organisations that meet in Church halls and the like. :P

When I was a kid, we played all kinds of money games. We even floated money; hold a crisp $1/5/10/20 bill up and try to guess which side it'd land on. Winner got to keep it. :P

Well, they didn't' teach it, and ours were Church sponsored. It was just sort of something you picked up on your own. :wink:

Scouts is a 'creepy organization' ? O.o
Some people talk because they have something to say. Others talk because they have to say something.

Well, the boy's brigade and what-not in the UK were always creepy in my mind, sitting around in church halls being taught about why the monarchy is awesome, then going on marches. . . .

Ah. See, over here we sit in Churches and learn how the monarchy were/are a bunch of idiots, then go on long marches.

The Indie Story pack today is a very good deal, for those who haven't seen it. A bunch of games I found interesting but never enticing enough on their own, bundled together and discounted 92%

Ohhh and now with delicious corporate secrets. So many small, delectable indie games.

I bought the Story pack for Recettear alone.

...and judging by the leaked list, I'll be buying the indie packs every day. :0

Given that I have pretty much every entry in the list that's of any interest to me (and at least one item in every list), I'm likely to get, at most, the pulse pack :P
And even then, I doubt it.

Same here. Man, I hate Steam sales.

Also, XBLA took a cue, curse them. Among others, 'Splosion Man for 160 points and Trials HD for 400.

Got a chance to play a couple levels of Sonic 4 today. And wow they really messed up the physics.

Seriously, if I'm tossed out a high speed minecart I should not stop in mid-air and fall straight down. That's just weird.

Minutes after it's released on Steam, so many people on my friends list playing Super Meat Boy and I'm still about 10% downloaded...Damn, I need better internet. :(
