Finally got Starcraft 2 installed and running. The game is pretty damn good. Blizzard/Sony can suck my sweaty balls though. Installation was a nightmare. The minimum system requirements are a joke. The game will not even install on a system like that. It would not even install on my system that was quite a bit better than minimum. Seems like they don't play nice with nVidia geforce 8xxx series cards. There is even a known bug that could fry your graphics card.

I frequently play yahtzee on my phone when i'm pooping at work.
What would a post from Aminal be w/o mentioning poop?
I was playing World of Warcraft yesterday (Yes, I know) and I thought, "I remember when I played Dungeons and Dragons with a pencil, paper, and a dice." I used to sit across the table from some friends, and there was usually beer, and Pizza involved too.
Progress, heh!
Didn't stop playing, just had a trip down Memory Lane, while tromping thru' Darkshire.

Yes I realize one is a die, and many are dice, my bad
I play on the Darkmoon Faire Server in the European Realm.
I'm currently working on a (Human) Warlock (Nemesia) who is in the Alliance.
Girthta and I have found ourselves playing WoW again, on Earthen Ring (US servers). Horde, of course.
Hrm...
LOTRO is one of the best RPGs out there, honestly. If I didn't freeze up so ridiculously much while playing it, I'd probably be playing it to this day.

well, lots of emacs over here, iceweasel and screen with irssi.
though I must admit, now and then some wii, mario, sports and stuff.

No, I haven't tried recently. However, I don't think it's the game. I think there is something very wrong with my system, as I seem to freeze up on many online games (not quite all of them, though).
It's rather irritating to me.
I used to run my system with an ATI Radeon 9800 graphics card. For the longest time, I couldn't figure out why my system kept freezing up until I realized that it would only freeze after playing a graphics-intensive game. Installing a beefier 3rd party fan and heatsink kit reduced the freezing dramatically.
I didn't elminiate the freezing entirely. I suspect part of the issue was a faulty motherboard. A new motherboard, CPU, and memory has gotten rid of the freezing altogether, although now I don't have a discrete graphics card.
The ATI Radeon 9800 is an AGP card and my new motherboard is PCI Express only.
