Farewell, my tool of masochist delight...

We had such a good time.

You swallowed a lot of crap and only bitched about swallowing it fully once in a blue moon. I never blamed you.

You never cared about Spider-Man 3, Avatar, The Golden Compass, Alone in the Dark, Guitar Hero: Aerosmoth, Def Jam ICON, A-Train HX, Turning Point, Dead or Alive Xtreme 2, that terrible Dark Messiah port, Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom, Crash of the Titans, History Channel: Battle for the Pacific, Kane & Lynch, Blacksite: Area 51, Timeshift, Cabela's Trophy Bucks, Medal of Honor: Airborne, Transformers: The Game or Pirates of the Caribbean 3.

You just licked them on the inside, and you liked it.

Then I decided to do away with my resistance for playing Half-Life 2 after having tried it up to three times and uninstalling it again from my PC. For all the bad vehicle control, the terrible waiting periods while npc's talked and didn't let you progress, the sometimes terrible platforming sections, the epic bore of not touching any sand in Sandtraps... I genuinely liked it this time around.

Of course, that's when we had our differences. I shouldn't be playing HL2, I should be finishing that uni stuff. No, I'm not from the UK. You thought I should give up on HL2 again, I thought otherwise.



You won.



May your deformed body survive the scrutiny of overbored service people at MS repair centers, and come home to me shiny new. Or I will break you open like Irreversible's Monica Bellucci and apply rubber sex toys to your clamps and call you a $12 whore.

I'm just waiting for the inevitable, when mine finally craps out as well. Here's to hoping for a speedy recovery.

Well, at least now you don't have to sit under a shadow of fear, nervously anticipating when the moment will come.

The time is now.

We should start a 360 obituary section.

Alas poor Pew's 360, I knew him. Now is the summer of Pew's discontent or should I say, disconnect.

You're not alone friend, my beloved 360 also faced the RROD just the other day. I too am in mourning. (sigh)

Sorry, I was just imagining Monica Belluccis wandering around my garden until I smashed them open with a shovel and sold the delicious candy insides at the village shop.
