That thing sounded like a damn lawn mower when we would turn it on. He's been playing more Fallout New Vegas than sleeping lately, so he's pretty bummed, as I guess it ate his character.

I know this game has been out for awhile but the awesomeness of Gran Turismo 5 w/ a good steering wheel and a big screen tv must be known.

I don't know that I've really been that pissed at my house burglars until the other night when I realized all my progress in Fallout 3, Red Dead Redemption, and Oblivion went *poof*. Got my new Xbox and really wanted to play Fallout and thought "Oh Sh__"

Had to go through the whole thing with Liam Neeson pulling me out of the womb, and picking my name and face, which I'm just obsessive compulsive enough about that I have to get it just right, have the birthday party, get the useless BB gun, etc...

Yeah. Good God.

I'm saving up to redo my PC for it and the next wave of Mega games (that, Skyrim, d3)

I want it to look flawless as I run it thru my big screen.
