Christmas Games

I'm torn.

There are so many video games that I'd love to get before the year's out. Some of 'em are super cheap on Steam, but the problem is, so many are that it's difficult for me to decide on just one. Also, I'm going to have to wait until after Christmas to get any console games, mostly because I know I'm getting something from someone and there's not much I hate more than getting the same gift twice by accident, or buying one before I receive it. Imagine you adopted a kid and it turns out your wife was pregnant but you didn't know because she's fat as fuck and the baby was hiding somewhere in the rolling hills of her overflowing pudge. Only in my case, the pudge is wrapping paper and family sentiment. Red Faction Armageddon? Garry's Mod? The Binding of Isaac? Speaking of that...

I definitely still love Super Meat Boy, so it doesn't really matter what I'm going to get for Christmas because I'm probably going to set aside money for The Binding of Isaac anyway. It's an Indie game on Steam that's designed by the same people as Meat, only it's an arena-style dungeon shooter that changes every time you load it. That means the game is different literally every time, and for what, three bucks? It's retarded to me that EB Games and Gamestop (aka the same shit in a different, rapist package) can charge $20 for a game that's a decade old, but arcades with a huge amount of gameplay sell for less than ten. Smarten up.


Everyone seems to have some sort of dealy-deal on, but I know for a fact that everything's going to be cheaper on Boxing Day, so it's just playing the waiting game. I was never good at the waiting game. It's like hard core monopoly without the board, pieces, money, cards, or jail. Well, maybe jail, if I go on a killing spree form lack of patience. At least I know who I'd target.
