And I do actually turn on the Wii at least once a month for game night. Maybe even more than once a month now that I have a hankering to play my copy of Dead Space Extraction, complete with its tentacle loving cover. Seriously, what is up with that cover? Who thought it would be a good idea to have a cover with a female, and a tentacle surrounding her? Maybe EA wass marketing to the wrong audience. Maybe they should have gone after the lucrative tentacle porn market. But I digress. </p> http://www.aeropause.com/forums/topic/gamertag-playstation-id-steam-id-and-friend-codes/page/2#post-2341 Tue, 16 Feb 2010 17:28:20 +0000 Stephen Munn 2341@http://www.aeropause.com/forums/ <p>My 360 Gamertag is SJMDracula.

We are looking for community members that would like to help out like the last time. So far I have three people, and could use two to three more.</p> <p>Post here with your gamertag if you would like to assist with the game night.

No. I have found out that I buy an XBLA game and play it for a short while, and then it just wastes space on my Hard Drive. I can count on one hand, how many times I went back to Bionic Commando Rearmed, Gauntlet, Xevious, Heavy Weapon, Hexic and countless other titles. The only ones that really have had any staying power are Cassarcerone, or however the hell that game is spelled, and Peggle. Defense Grid is doing well for me now, but I wonder if I will tire of it eventually like all other XBLA games. </p> http://www.aeropause.com/forums/topic/shadow-complex#post-1708 Thu, 24 Sep 2009 16:47:20 +0000 Shane 1708@http://www.aeropause.com/forums/ <p>I finally finished this last night, does anyone else think this is an awesome game?
