BUT FOR ME IT WAS SIMPLY TUESDAY! Yes my fine chums, we have come to another part of the week that is now only technically 20% over. Go home to your families. Embrace your loved ones as the cold sets in. Await the eventual entropy that is the heat death of the universe. Realise that I’ll waffle on about practically anything.

In Other News: Iwata needs a get-well soon card, Ubisoft wasn’t comfortable with all those ninnies having a childish reaction to the Far Cry 4 box art, Gone Home to a Dim Bulb and even Xbox is having a sale.

Here’s the news that we didn’t post today, because we were too busy taping our nipples up for some weekend pain-ball.

      You really should , bought it awhile back and installed it last week or so apart from the steam/Social club link on startup, the game plays fine, plus multiplayer is still great to play espicially while waiting for GTA V on PC. was just confused at first as why was the game saying I was Lazy?, only to realize it’s due to the LG crew.

          One uses paintball guns with paintballs… the other replaces the paintballs with golf balls, or something similar?

            Those self defense pepper and plastic balls.

            I’ll put my money on Darryn he is used to getting shot and sprayed with self defense non-lethal weapons.

      I’m working my maths on a ten-day week. This makes perfect sense to me.
