Seussian. Yea, it totally is. Ha!

IGN's Podcast Unlocked today mentioned Minecraft just hit 10 million in sales on Xbox 360 almost reaching the 13 million on PC right now. Add to that it being put on next gen systems soon and I think we could start calling the Xbox One and PS4 the Minecraft Machines. It's incredible the popularity of that game based on nothing more than the ease at which you can alter its environment.

"veiny arms" ha!

After learning it, I don't even think about my keyboarding anymore. It's effortless. 

That's why it's so hard to tell what will be good or not. The Cave was no graphical powerhouse, but I loved it. I played the demo almost at random and realized it would be good. I could've easily missed that one.

You just hit on two games in my backlog that I'm dying to get to: Fire Emblem Awakening and Dragon's Crown. I'm still working on Mario & Luigi: Dream Team and will be playing Halo: Spartan Assault when it drops on XBL on Xmas Eve.

Oh wow cool. Halo Mega Bloks. 

Guess what I want for a stocking stuffer this Xmas.

Even for furries at Anthrocon!

Whaaaaaa?

I wonder if you can buy it too if you have a used copy.

I get swayed by graphics, but it's good gameplay that keeps me interested. Oblivion turned out to be a very frustrating game for me and I never finished it. I ended up enjoying Crackdown way more because it was so much fun, graphics be damned.

And they got a lot of people to get HD TVs. Mine is 1080i and I always felt I needed something better, but now I don't much care. What I got is just fine.

I know. I'm scared for them. One of my podcasts was talking about price differences today and why Steam can sell games for so cheap and MS and Sony have to charge full price for downloadable versions on their consoles. Something about the lack of retail presence for PC games and their inability to be resold at stores like Gamestop makes the publishers more willing to make deals to sell cheaper on PC. A Steam machine could really pull the rug out from under MS and Sony. The machine will be more expensive than consoles, but the games will be so much cheaper.
