Jack Thompson is an asshole. I wanted to put in references to being right-wing, conservative, Catholic League ties.... etc but I don't want to suggest there are no good right-wingers or conservatives out there; That is not the issue.

So now that I work at a gaming store I play video games again.
Just not new ones.
Contra: Shattered Soldier is excellent. Frustrating, but excellent. And not quite Metal Slug 3 frustrating. That one was more like when I was 6 and I would get so pissed at a video game that I would bite my own hand in rage to keep from shattering anything nearby made out of glass. Metal Slug 4 5 come out next week, let's see how I fare with those.
Other thoughts:
Star Ocean: Till The End of Time has dropped to $20. It is also an awesome game. Final Fantasy-vein, Square-Enix produced, and damn long enough to keep me happy til Final Fantasy XII comes out at the end of the year (hopefully).
Chaos Legion is underrated. It's a decent update to the brawler series that came on the heels of Devil May Cry a bit too soon. A bit easy and repititious, but fun.
Tetris Worlds is not Tetris. Tetris Worlds is, in fact, the devil.
