I haven't really had a chance to play on my computer much. It's typically focused on working on my own games, which isn't always entertaining.

I recently ran across a mod for Half-Life 2 called Garry's Mod. It's a small but flexible mod that lets you play around with the physics aspects of the game. There's no plot to speak of and only one open level to mess around with.

Still, it's been loads of fun for both Sam and I. I had my dad laughing out loud as he launched endless floating robots to stick to each other and create this huge monstrous thing. Well, the funny part was when I switched his weapon to a balloon launcher and he floated the creatures away.

I even made my own car using a big block, oil drums, and a propane tank for thrust. It didn't work out very well, though, as you can see by this picture. It's all fun and games until someone launches the car into the water and catches everything on fire.
