GAMURZ! Check out this amazing list of online games and addictive puzzles! I mentioned this in Specklet's thread yesterday (the one about the Tower Defense game) but it deserves its own post. Bookmark it! And if anyone wants to start a collab game (there are a bunch), give a holler.

I love it when I read things incorrectly.

I read: give a hollar as give me a dollar.

Oh, good grief... as if my productivity hasn't been around nil, lately, already. This looks like way too much fun waiting to be had.

*gives iconomy a dollar*

*pats dollar bill knowingly*

I've had this site bookmarked for well over a year now. In fact, that's where I first out about Jay is Games.

Oh no, I must resist... It's like crack cocaine, don't try it, not even once.

WolfDaddy, have you played Zelda yet? I've been thinking about it all morning.

Ico, I didn't get a Wii, but am playing Zelda on my 'cube. I'm, I don't know, about 20 hours into it and ... enh. I don't know why I'm not as into it as I have been all other things Zelda. I think I'm going to hold off playing it til I'm fully moved into the new house, and there I'll start over. Too many distractions right now.

Did you play FF XII? I thought it was tremendous fun gameplay-wise (even though I was so good at the gambit system that I was pretty much able to defeat the final boss without doing anything myself at all), but not nearly as engaging character or story-wise as FF X. I didn't cry at the end, that's for sure. :-)

I clicked on "Pen and Paper Games" and it turned out to be a MeFi thread. Now I'm knee-deep in awesome-sounding, quirky, open-ended parlor games like "1000 Blank White Cards". Love these kinds of games.

And Eat Poop You Cat sounds awesome! And so does Ex Libris, which we could actually play here!

Miko: 1000 Blank White Cards is awesome!

posted by Daniel Charms 19 January | 16:34

I've wanted to play 1000 Blank White Cards for ages! Everyone I suggest it to looks at me like I'm insane, though. *sigh*

BoringPostcards, I WILL PLAY THIS GAME WITH YOU, WHEREVER YOU ARE! I just read the instructions that Miko linked to and I'm crying because I'm laughing so hard.
