 Over the weekend Sam and I picked up a new computer game called Psychonauts. It's quite funny, very creative in both art direction and story. Basically you're at a summer camp for psychic kids, all of which look like weird clowns with big teeth and funny hair. Your tasks are vaguely comical and typically involve delving into people's brains. At the moment I'm going into the mind of a mutant fish. It looks like a giant city populated by lungfish and you're an incredibly huge monster. Very amusing.
My favorite quote after learning to set things on fire: "Remember, use your abilities only when it's useful . . . or entertaining. And when trying to impress girls, make sure they don't have on lots of hair spray."

I played a little Knights of the Old Republic 2 over the weekend. Now I just have the urge to finish the game and be done with it. Fortunately I think I'm getting pretty close.
E3 has come and gone, the big gaming convention of the year. Nothing too excited appeared. I was really hoping for some NWN2 screenshots, but nothing showed up. There were some interesting games that look interesting: Alan Wake and Spore seemed very different.

 I haven't had much time to play any new games lately. Splinter Cell and Knights of the Old Republic 2 continue to sit unused on my hard drive.
Sam's been playing old games again, mostly Black and White, but also Garry's Mod for Half-Life 2. It's the one where you can play around with physics, spawning creatures, attaching wheels and thrusters to things, and launching weird junk in odd directions.
He spawned a creature to attack, and configured his rocket launcher to fire televisions. He started launching them at the creature and exclaimed, "Too much TV can be bad for you!" It had me cracking up and soon enough the beast had died under a pile of televisions.
