I'm sure you are helping out a TON then.
LOL?

Shut the fuck up. For one, you don't even know me.. For two, I'm actually a big help.. For three, I work part time, most of my classes are being done online (planned ahead, who woulda thunk??) and lastly, I game about 30 minutes to an hour a night... (when the baby is sleeping??!?! MY GOD!

Fact is, there is a lot of time in the day for a lot of things to be done. I don't know how good you guys are at managing your own lives, but mine is going pretty damn good.

Thanks for the concern though.
Wow... Get defensive fast. I was joking, Jebus. Anyways, I got TONS of video game time in for the first few months. It goes away, trust me. Big difference between 1 month old and 8 month old. My kid barely naps.

Couldn't justify having two systems at this point.
I actually didn't realize that Wake was an exclusive. I wonder if it will release for PS3 down the road?

If it does it won't be for a while. A PC version is probably more likely seeing as they were making one initially but scrapped it mid-development.

I think it's automatically applied to your next video game purchase, but I don't know if you get it until Red Dead Redemption actually ships.

Yeah, not until it ships. Amazon won't actually charge you for Red Dead until it ships. I went through this process with God of War.

Sorry, I can't always detect sarcasm.

I still love you, no homo.

Don't think it has anything to do with 'managing your lives' as much as it does 'priorities'. Not judging you or anything, so don't get defensive. LOL Just sayin'.

I used to game all the time as well, but I haven't touched a video game in probably a year. Get up at 4:30, go to work at 6:00, get home at 3:00ish, then my wife and son come home around 6:00. Then it's husband and father time. Of course, my son is 8, and not an infant. Then to bed around 9:30. So I have a couple of hours to myself every night. But that's when I have to do yard work, etc.

Just can't justify picking up a video game when there is so much shit to do. Just thought I'd share that I for once agree with snot about something. :)

Just checked my amazon tracking # ---- Delivered, woot.

Sucks that I'm at work until 5, though.....Then Lost is on tonight. I'll probably get in 1-2 hours late at night from 10-midnight on the PS3.

I still play MW2, MLB 2k10. Is RDR a must have?

The videos/screens look sick. I'm on the verge of going out to buy it now. If it is as good as I think it might be, I might just sell MLB2k10 back.

IGN gave it a 9.7/10

Everything I have read say it is a must-have. I plan on getting it next week probably.

Just got done trying it out. I'm hooked. It is fucking bad-assed! Now, how the hell am I still gonna play MW2??? I think RDR just kicked the MW2 to the curb, and I haven't even tried multiplayer yet.
