Notes From The Bunker
- 12 Comments

First off, I’d just like to say happy birthday to the rest of the VE3D December birthday crew: Ensaine, Red-Cell, and Species8472. Furthermore, I hope that you all had a (merry/happy/illuminating/ debauched) celebration of (Christmas/Hanukkah/ Kwanzaa/ Dies Natalis Solis Invicti/ Jól/ Midwinter/ Boxing Day/My Birthday)!

So what video games have you all bought or received this holiday season? I’ve snagged Anno 2070, Batman Arkham City, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, Space Marine, Skyrim, The Witcher 2, and a plethora of other games in the past few weeks.

I also picked up a copy of SHOGUN 2 to replace the press version that I used to review the game for Gamespot. I can’t play multiplayer or get achievements with the press version, so while it has sentimental value to me as the game that introduced me to Ohm, I’ve decided it’s time for an upgrade.

Anyway, best wishes to you and yours from the holiday bunker!

'Twas the day after Christmas... yeah that's right, it's Boxing Day! Happy shopping to those that plan to brave the malls. So, how was Christmas? Eat too much? Play too much? Yeah, same here. I'm not a huge fan of holidays but I am a huge fan of presents! I got some prescription drugs. Santa knows me so well.

Hey, have you ever noticed that it's always MEN picking their noses in the car at stop lights?
