We're all stuffed with turkey and locked and loaded to pass out, but Black Friday starts in a few hours and the in-laws want to check out a few stores. While there's no way I'm going to be standing in line with the masses, I'll be scoping out a few places for a new gaming computer. I saw a few decently priced quad cores a few weeks back, so hopefully I can snag one at a discount.
In between feasting on the poor oversized bird and eating eggnog cheesecake, we watched some No Ordinary Family and Blue Bloods.

In 2005, Double Fine released
Psychonauts, but while it was critically-acclaimed by the press, and won various awards, it sold poorly. Ever since Double Fine has been focusing on console titles only with

The day before Thanksgiving is usually the busiest travel day of the year, but we were saved any hassle since the in-laws are coming over to our place to gobble on some turkey.
The bird is brining as we speak, but most of the preparations will be tomorrow afternoon when we have to get all the sides ready. We do have to clean up our place to accommodate the horde that's camping out for the next few days.
As usual we'll be around and updating the site here and there, but don't be surprised if the news coverage slows down to a trickle.
