I narrowly missed that bug. I had a "rich" friend that had an Atari when I was in college. I never got very good at it. The next time I tried was when my kids one a Nintendo 64. I was okay. Of course, it's not hard to beat 8 and 11 year olds. Then I went to work and when I got home they were kicking my ass. I never felt the time I would need to invest to catch back up to them would be worth it.
I'm like a crazy cat lady but with games. Or something. I bought a bunch at the Steam summer sale too. Ah well. Terraria is a good game for you Minecraft lovers, more combat/goal oriented but very similar in some respects.
We have SO MANY games! I've finished a lot of mine, with the exception of the scary ones. They get too scary and then I don't want to play anymore. In the last Silent Hill game we bought, my last save left me in the middle of a fog covered street where two inside out dogs wait for me ahead. In some Cthulhu game, I'm hiding under a staircase with no ammo while the fish people stalk me. There was also another one where I had to fight off a crackhead with a lead pipe because I didn't have a gun, but I don't remember what happened to that one. I might have finished it...
