I was considering using a wet picture of Mars for a water Wednesday ION, but I was already so tired of all the astronomy-based tweets and jokes this week already. Instead, I figured we all needed something in the middle of the week that was quite and harmless, like kitty whiskers.

September 30, 2015 at 16:13
I kind of like Sonic Spiky Floof.
Pariah
September 30, 2015 at 16:14
You’ve obviously not played any of the games in the last decade or so. 😉
Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:17
I’ve been fortunate enough to only have played and owned the first two.
Pariah
September 30, 2015 at 16:18
I’ve never owned any, but played on friends Sega Mega Drives back in the day. Watching the games since, I cringe at what’s become of the Spiky Floof.
Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:20
Quite. Watched a video of the latest one a while back. It’s sad, really. If games like Trine can still pull of the side-scroller, and 2D games like Child of Light do so well, why should they try to reinvent these old side-scroller classics, trying to make them these 3D, multi-dimensional games? Just keep things simple.
DragonSpirit009
September 30, 2015 at 16:22
I started playing Child of Light last night! Really a beautiful game!!
Pariah
September 30, 2015 at 16:24
Man, good move! Loved that game. I still need to go back and finish it (I tend to never finish games, no idea why).
Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:24
I tend to always finish my games, but there are other things that I don’t alwa…..
Pariah
September 30, 2015 at 16:25
Well, I always let others finish first… So there’s that.
DragonSpirit009
September 30, 2015 at 16:27
I have this problem as well… I have some many unfinished games!
Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:24
It truly is.
With Cœur de Pirate doing the music you really can’t go wrong either.
Your next one to try (if you haven’t yet) is Transistor. Also great music, incredible visuals and a solid story.
Pariah
September 30, 2015 at 16:25
Also a solid game man. And Bastion (Same devs as transistor, and their first game) had a narrative voice-over that still sends chills of joy down my spine.
DragonSpirit009
September 30, 2015 at 16:26
I’ve been eyeing Bastion since I saw it sometime ago somewhere. It looks amazing!
Pariah
September 30, 2015 at 16:27
Best voice driven narrative of any game I’ve ever played. And Transistor as JJ says has a music score that’ll take your breath away. It has a tight combat system too.
Ottokie "Yahtzee"
September 30, 2015 at 16:27

I have to get a console first!
My laptop is a bit weak to play such games… But I will put it on my list.
Pariah
September 30, 2015 at 16:26
It’s on PC lol.
DragonSpirit009

Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:27
Transistor is very light, might even work on your laptop. Was dirt cheap a while back too.
But enjoy Child of Light. Was just listening to Cœur de Pirate this morning and it got me wanting to play that game now.
DragonSpirit009
September 30, 2015 at 16:30
I’ll see what the requirements are this weekend. There may be hope!
I regularly download soundtracks of games and movies.
It motivates me at work 😛
Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:30
Me too. Have the Transistor soundtrack in my car too. 🙂
DragonSpirit009
September 30, 2015 at 16:37
I have a mix of soundtrack music playing in my car. Play it full blast every time I have to drive from Strand to Wellington and vice versa
Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:42
Thanks to the pretty mountains your best route is probably through Stellenbosch.
I lived there for 11 years and I really do not miss that traffic (and I now live closer to the city). You have my sympathy.
DragonSpirit009
September 30, 2015 at 16:45
Yeah the drive is nice until Stellenbosch. Most of the time I try to pass through there between 06:50 – 07:00 but I love my sleep and usually only end up driving from home about 06:45 XD
So in the end a hours drive usually end in a hour and a halves drive
Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:47
Eish. My last job took me 10 min from Stellenbosch to Blackheath, but took me anything from 20-30min just in SB to my house.
DragonSpirit009
September 30, 2015 at 16:49
Well maybe in my near future I might not have to go through there anymore. Still waiting to hear if work are going to move us or not.
Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:51
I hope not for your sake.
You also need to join us crazy people at the next Lagz get-together.
DragonSpirit009
September 30, 2015 at 16:53
Will do for sure.
Already told my on friend that I need a place to sleep over and a chauffeur in the future 😛

Ottokie "Yahtzee"

As who ?
Commander JJ of the Normandy
September 30, 2015 at 16:56
We’re still deciding between a bunch, but if all four of us are going to, we’ll probably just do the PayDay thing. If only two, we’ll have to try another option.
Ottokie "Yahtzee"
September 30, 2015 at 16:57

The [TUBE] will fall away after the tournament
