Just think how great it will be.
No sleep
No games
no sex(for a bit)
no free time

Its gonna rock!



All kidding aside.
I hear kids can be fun. So good luck. If I hated you I would wish on you the curse of my brother and I on you. We probably aged my parents prematurly by like 40 years. My dads going on 120 now If my brother wasn't lighting the work truck on fire, I was making ninja stars out of razor blades and taking them to school and throwing them at kids I hated.
And that was just one week. Instead lets home they are Carl Sagan like thinkers with an unlimited amount of kindness and curiosity.

Hey, I get sex back, she was under doctor's orders for none since February, that's been HELL. The willpower it's taken on both or our parts is nothing short of epic.

Nah, it's really not going to be that bad. The twins were one of the main reasons I got the Vita, a portable system I can put in sleep mode makes gaming much more possible. Sleep will come, I already only sleep about 4 hours each night as it is, I got used to that with my first two kids.

@Krack: I'm beginning to recruit ADDGirl to eventually play Halo. Probably after we finish Halo for the first play-through but I think she must play Halo with you as a partner. It's a gaming experience everyone must have. Like dropping acid if you lived during the '60s.

I believe I speak for about 10 people on the planet Earth when I say that Halo 2 was my favorite. This may be because I haven't played it in like 5 years.

It used to be mine as well. But it hasn't aged well at all AND it really did have some fucking atrocious pacing. I recently played through it and as a fan of Halo it was painful.

Oh, believe me, the vasectomy is coming.

I have two kids with my ex wife that I have full custody of, then my fiance and I decided to have a child (she had none) and one turned into twins.

What sold me on the PS2 was that Dragon Warrior VIII and Final Fantasy X were on it. Loves me some JRPGs.

Metal Gear Solid 2 and Final Fantasy X did it for me. I think I even still cared about Gran Turismo at the time.

Wait, Purps...which Halo do you want to play? I own 3, ODST, and Reach - but if I need to go pick something up for a playthrough let me know.

I think, but I could be wrong. He was inviting you to our community Halo Anniversary play-through. Could be wrong though. We made it to the 4th level last night.

Which I never played hahahahaha

Watch out... I spent sleepless nights with Smurfette watching MST3K, and, well, she's turned into a music major with geek tendencies. If something as wholesome and intellectually stimulating as MST3K does THAT, I shudder what, say, someone who watches all night marathons of Storage Wars would end up with.

Oh, god, I'd rather rip my eyes out than watch something like Storage Wars. No, my Netflix Queue is full of Firefly, Arrested Development, MST3K (great minds think alike ), Futurama, a ton of documentaries (historical, space, ocean, etc...) and some movies I've been meaning to watch, like Thor and The Host.

Netflix needs to step up and bring in more MSTK3k episodes. My wife will only watch episodes with Mike, because Joel's voice annoys her. To be honest, it annoys me a bit too. We've exhausted our Mike episodes already, and Rifftrax releases are really slow, too.

Watched Sherlock Series 2 over the weekend, didn't play much other than some Quantum Conundrum.

Dunno if I'm going to be able to play much this week.

Well thanks to Karak, I am a new owner of The Secret World. Who knew that they could turn In the Mouth of Madness into an MMO and make it fun to slowly go insane.

So it's that on Friday (early access starts), with Halo: The Karak Chronicles, and Dragon's Dogma: Pawnbrokers , for the rest of the week.

Picked up the new Magic 2013 game after bitching about it a couple of months ago in another thread, ha ha. Ya it's on $10 and I do get my moneys worth out of it though. Pretty fun. Lots of time consuming achievements in the new one like getting all 30 bonus cards of a deck unlocked. So I gotta put in work.
