Skyroads/Skyxmas is memorably challenging for me. I never beat the last road in Skyroads, and only beat the last road in Skyxmas once.

Yes, if you do not take good care of them. They are safe in a box after all. I made it a rule to never loan my stuff to anyone. Especially not to friends. If you want them to last longer then you should get rid of the disk check of the games you play or create an iso image of the disk and mount it. I still got my copies of Quake, Quake 2, Hexen 2, etc. and the data on them is fully intact despite some scratches here and there (At the age of 10 I really had no clue how to treat disks right.).

Disks. Only download when there is no retail release for a certain game. But I have been thinking about switching over to downloads: The main argument to choose disks over download is that you own the DVD and nobody can take away the data on it from you. Downloads depend on a remote server and if that remote server is not available and you experience a hard drive crash or do a reformat your bought copy of the game is lost forever. The disk's advantage is in reality a rarity nowadays. Most retail copies have malware on them that can make your copy useless with a killswitch (Limited activations for example.) and are also dependent on a remote server to work (Namely activation, and in Ubi games' cases activation during every single launch.). The only "market" where you aren't treated like crap for legally buying something is on piracy street. It is ironic that publishers always blame piracy when their agenda in reality is to gain control over people who use their products. Why else do they never release unprotected exes and libraries for games that are no longer profitable (After all, the critical sales period is only a few weeks or months after release.)? I am waiting for the GOG idea to extend to the main market instead of focusing on old games. I would pre-order or buy my most anticipated game at full price if I knew they were completely DRM free. So would many people who are pirates today exactly because they know they will get a quality product unlike faithful buyers (Not including me though. I simply buy from bargain bins instead.).

Is there anyone who doesn't hate GfWL? Except publishers that is. They are unbelievably stubborn to choose this giant pile of shit over something actually decent like Steam.

Pet Shop Boys - Luna Park This is hands down my all time favourite song, not just of PSB but of any artist I have in my collection.

You are either right handed or wrong handed, simple as that. Banned for being a sequel to Brian233.

I never really rage when Machinima is on slomo. I buy cheap DVDs every now and then that got multiple times more minutes of entertainment than a FM episode. Then I got games that can eat up a lot of free time, like Thief, STALKER and Deus Ex. It is however perfectly valid out of pure principle to criticize the biased queue, content should not be preferred in my opinion, it should get its place in line and stay there.

Did you know that the Dark engine uses a main loop function that uses up 100/n% of CPU time during rendering (Where n equals the number of cores.)?

Please don't tell me it has a stationary-turret-on-a-vehicle thingy. That is one of the worst gameplay mechanics possible. Right up there with die 'n try x n.
