Since I'm Incapacitated...
exodus1925 | 7:13 AM on 04.17.2008 10 comments


...I might as well write a quick blog.

I'm on tour playing bass for an up and coming female singer songwriter and have sprained my ankle because I'm a douche. I'm pretty much sofa-bound but "surely thats a good thing because you can just sit with a laptop and play games all day?" Therein lies the terrible, terrible problem...





...brace yourself...






...everyone on tour has MacBooks.




Normally I'd load up Steam and be set for the week but NO, I'm stuck with online flash games which are entertaining for a while but do lack the depth and immersive distraction of PC games. Roll on Saturday when the girlfriend comes and sees me and I am reunited with my laptop.


I'm currently playing N Online and the World's Hardest Game, any other suggestions?



Also, if you're into acoustic singer/songwriter music I really recommend checking Hollie (who I'm touring with) out:

"we have a bearded bassist, enough said"

Cool gig you got there!

Hopefully your ankle heals soon!


As for Mac games... I got nothing...

Perhaps some emulation games from SNES or something? They probably have Mac OS emulators right?

I've got one word for ya: Bookworm.

Maybe you could check out some games on Adult Swim's website? I haven't really played any in a while, but they used to help me kill some time.
