I have never bought or sold anything on Steam's Marketplace. It popped up at one point when I was too busy to keep up with the goings on the Steam gaming community and when I finally noticed it I just had the same emotional response as Sonic from a Dorkly video. I looked at it and shrugged, "Neat."

Then they added new stuff to that, like gems...and I got even more lost. A few months ago I read through everything and just shrugged...it looked like the whole point, in the end, was to get badges. I don't care about badges, so the cards are little more than a collectible annoyance to me.
An annoyance in that I always think something's going on when I've got noticed on my steam account and it's just a new set of cards.
Supposedly, after a certain point, you get coupons and stuff.
I've set the "Exclamation/Asterisk/System Notification" noise on my computer to the phrase "I'm a member of S.T.A.R.S.!"

I don't think this will ever stop being funny.
Finally got around to finishing Deadly Premonition. Not sure if I should thank Twin Peaks for making me get through it or Deadly Premonition for making me watch Twin Peaks to make me want to finish Deadly Premonition.

It really started to pick up near the end. I was waiting for the game to actually go somewhere before I got bored of it. At least the conversations with Zach in the car, the comedic elements the game would sometimes present and the music kept me going for the first 3 episodes or so before it actually started to become interesting and good.

After reading up on stuff in the game, it turns out that no one knows who voiced York. All they know is that he's done other work, but the name was kept a secret. He also voiced a character that Detective Cooper off Twin Peaks voiced. It's been around 5 years so I doubt we'll be getting any confirmation on who voiced him soon, but it's still interesting to see.

I also finished Asscreed 4, but who cares about that.
My sister has a Wii U and Mario Maker. She invited my daughter's to spend the night Sunday and they had a blast. I've been watching some crazy videos on YouTube to get some ideas to drive her nuts when I finally get to play. I also watched a speed run of Kaizo Super Mario World at AGDQ. That is some crazy stuff.
Just got demo codes to the LoZ Tri Force Heroes game. Unfortunately it's multiplayer only(online and local). Thing is, I don't know a whole lot of people here who even have a 3ds so the local is pretty much thrown out. Also, it forces you to get a party in order to even play the game.

Great move, Nintendo, great move... *Sarcasm*
I hate lego games. You have very specific triggers you have to do to progress, and if you can't figure out what exactly it is, you're boned and have to look it up, but you don't want to look it up because pride and the fact that its a kid's game.
My brother showed me an e-mail from Gearbox. He has been selected as a game tester for the upcoming Borderlands game, if he chooses to do it. I thought that was pretty cool.
He is also thinking about joining vgfacts. If so, I apologize lol. He has the same since of humor I do (we take after our pop), so get ready for lame jokes and such.

60 pending submissions. Hope this doesn't make someone's job a living hell.

Did you know: When's Marvel?
Maaannnnnnnnnnn, Platinuming Deadly Premonition is a chore and a half. I have to do all 50 side missions and collect all the damn cards, replaying missions require me to actually finish them to be able to save. I can't just do a side mission and save. I need to finish the game chapter as well, along with the long loading times between sections, and the controls in general, it's so tedious to do everything.

Additionally, there are some annoying things you have to deal with, like weather specific events at specific times that sometimes never work for me for one reason or another, and so I'm forced to try again by sleeping until it's raining again. Along with chapter specific side missions, it's really really long.

I don't know how you do it Cody.

Hell, hearing York talk to Zach about films used to be my favourite part of the game, now it's become annoying since he repeats the same lines every chapter.
That was back when I could "achievement-whore" for hours. Just tuned out really. Listening to Podcast and stuff.

So it's confirmed we're getting a new Borderlands game?
New way of settling things around this house.

I gotta find my old copy of Starcraft 1. I told a friend with a bad laptop that he'd enjoy it and he got it really soon after. I wasn't expecting him to do that. Plus, he upgraded to a better laptop, which is cool as we now have some other options going for us.
