A not so gifty gift is knowing my mom is getting some help. I also bought HL2 Silver Pack via Steam last night, so I played CS:S with Kegwen for a while and got pwned hardcore. But it was fun, and that is all that counts(1:2 K 
ratio is better than the 1:4 I was sporting in DoD last week, I'm starting to break even in DoD, can't wait for Source).

and an Ottoman for under my computer desk to replace my dead subwoofer. I've wanted something like this for two years now.

GamesContract JACK (NOLF was great, I must play more in the series)
No One Lives Forever 2 (awwwwww yeah)
NOLF 2 is a great game. The EXP system is awesome, and really makes you think which way you want to play - stealth, sneaking, gadgets... or guns, ammo, health, armor, etc... the funny isn't there nearly as much as in NOLF1, but it had its moments - like when you're chasing a Midget Assassin on a Unicycle, by riding on the back of a Scotsman on a tricycle.
Contract JACK, I have heard, is just crap. It's not NOLF-y. It's not sneaky or stealthy, it's pure action. Nothing but run and gun the whole game Khyron fucked around with this message on 12-25-2004 at 11:03 PM.
