We did a little shopping yesterday. I had to get extra ram for the work computer to speed things up a little. It's a last-ditch effort; the next step is buying a new computer. Yay!
Also went out and got a mic/headset so we can coordinate and strategize in CrimeCraft since the previous patch has added daily tournaments. Nothing too fancy, a $30 Logitech thing, but it works fine, was easy install, and it got the job done, even though we came in second in last night's tourney.
Last night we watched House and
Four Christmases, the former being quite trippy and the latter rather entertaining with a few good chuckles.

Tomorrow, Ubisoft will release the
Splinter Cell demo. I bet a lot of people are excited about that; it's been long in the making. Not sure whether this demo will also be on the PC, but if not, then I guess I'll have to check out the X360 version.
I'm not terribly much of a racing game fan. I like the genre though I'm not good at the actual racing, but I'm kind of intrigued by the NFS Online game, so I'm going to try and mooch a
closed beta code off EA and see what it's all about.
Last but not least, I really hope the
Red Dead Redemption coming to PC rumor is true and not just a typo because that game is looking very exciting!
Yup, lots of interesting games coming up!
