I should probably go to bed at this point. I typed up a short story of my arduous attempts at defending an outpost in the STALKER modpack GAMMA and how my game crashed when I turned in the quest. Sent off that post and woe-is-me, the entire text didn't get submitted and I didn't have it saved in copy-paste. It's just so ironically fitting.

So ya, what's something you'd like to ramble a bit about?

You brought up a deep memory of watching these two guys playing House Of The Dead in an arcade back in the day. It was a difficult as nails light gun shooter, and these guys were further into the game than I’d ever seen anybody get. There were areas and enemies I’d never even heard of on the screen. I was part of a small crowd that stopped playing our own games to watch the spectacle.

Games designed to eat your money deserve to be gone, but still I can’t deny what a spectacle they could be.
