    Game Dev Story. It's ludicrously addictive. Spent around three hours staring at my iPod in a trance when I first downloaded it :pac:

    Although those bastard reviewers never give a full Famitsu 40 :(

    I can host on the 30th if anyone is around.

    I'd like to think that my place in Artane is slightly more central than most.

    30th of December?
    Hmm, we'll have to see...
    At least I won't have to give you a lift!
    And my Pacman Vs stays home!

    I like the escalator in there. It goes into a low power mode when no one is on it.

    At first I thought it was the most rubbish escalator ever but it sped right up as I got onto it.

    American Apparel reminds me of Bono. They both somehow make social and environmental responsibility look like a negative, assholeish pursuit.
