I've been using this site a lot lately. I've also been keeping records on how long I've spent playing each game. I've been doing it for several years now. That's some information I could add to their database. There were some games there that I played that either didn't exist on their site yet or didn't have any play time data for them. I thought I'd fix that and add all the data I've accumilated so far. I have the same user name over there as here. I'm going to explore their site a bit more over the next few weeks. They have a forum too. Here's the link: http://howlongtobeat.com/user.php?n=KnightDriver

Think about it as the last year for a hundred years you will have a date like this: 12-12-12. I'll do this like the previous year: I'll list a favorite one I experienced in that year, and one I missed and most want to experience now

I started today thinking I would start EDF: Insect Armageddon and probably give up on it pretty quickly, but I played the campaign on Hard online and managed to find a few players who made it really fun. Mind

Played a whole bunch of Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon today.

Today I went to Gamestop to take advantage of their buy 2 get 1 free sale on all used merchandise. While I was there, I was told there was a buy 2 get 3 sale on Skylanders figures. Well, well, how could I resist. I was just thinking of getting into Skylanders. Now was the perfect time. See pic below for all the goodies I got for the price of one new game:

Short gaming session today. It started with me helping Mark setup his new TV. Then we played some Ticket to Ride, that Alan Moon train tycoon board game on Xbox Live. It's always the same with that game: build a coast to coast railway and you will probably win. I just connect destinations and see where that leads me. Today it led me to dominance of the east coast of North America, but I also lost every single match because I didn't go coast to coast. 

Sales started on Thanksgiving day this year. BestBuy opened at 5pm and so did Target and probably a lot of other places. I couldn't get there until about 9pm or so, and so I missed the TV deal I was looking to get for my gamer friend, but I saw the PS4 sitting there for $300 and couldn't resist it at that price.

It be 2011. Wah happan? I dunno, just a few things. . . Here's one favorite that I experienced that year, and then one I want to experience now for each media type.

Yes I finished Stacking today, every last little bit of it. I completed all the challenges, collected all the unique dolls, and did all the Hi-Jinks. I left not a stone unturned in that game, DLC and all. So fun.

Not stacking games on top of games like the last couple weeks, just playing the Xbox Live downloadable game Stacking, by Double Fine, all during the football game, and then the rest of the day.
