Bought a bunch of new games this week at a GameCrazy near me that was going out of business. It's a shame to see so many places closing lately, but this also happened when GameStop/EB Games started opening up branches.

I have about 6 hours worth of work to do, then will likely be so tired when I get home that I won't want to game. I think an hour of L4D would be good for me, though...

So, if you see me on Live tonight, you'll know I finished early.

All right, enough is enough. I need to crack down and finish some games that I've been putting off. There aren't backlog so much as games I haven't finished and have no excuse for. Please note that these are games I've wanted to finish - any games that I dislike, I just stop playing.

Games to finish by the end of the year, in order of importance:

Gun
Batman: AA
Fable II
Bioshock
Dead Rising
Lego Batman
Lego Indiana Jones
Spiderman: Web of Shadows
Cars
Harry Potter: OotP
Fallout 3

My news finally has come to fruition! I bought my first house, and will be moving in at the end of the month. It's a nice 1 story house with enough bedrooms and bathrooms to meet my needs. Funny thing is that it will only be $50 more per month than my current rent. I know I'll have to start putting a bunch aside for repairs and maintenance, but overall it's a much better arrangement long term.

Photos of my game room awesomeness should be posted in early September.
