Heheh, yea, or Digimon World on PS1, maybe some Zelda 64, Pilot-wings or Turok 2, Syphon Filter 1,2 & 3, Tenchu etc. All "child-hood days" games that I'd probably enjoy a lot more than playing against some "leets" on COD.

Though in all likelihood, not everybody likes it anyway for whatever reason O_o.

Well on the bright side life always comes new, not used. Imagine being born into an old man, instead of a baby. You get maybe 5 years before you're dead. And 1/2 of those will be spent in a nursing home for the criminally insane. Well, on that bright note, at least you don't suffer from insanity, you are enjoying it too much.

Stephen King.

I never really read King before, outside of the first Dark Tower book which wasn't all that bad. Then I got an e-reader and with it a small mountain of mainstream popular fiction. At this point I've gotten down to the Ks, so here I am.

He's just so...repetitive... really really repetitive. He has some good characters but then he runs their characterizations into the ground in the next dozen books. He rarely if ever explains his supernatural whatever and when he does it's always a massive let down. Once you grasp his formula things become kind of like playing Madlibs.  I may be accused of being religiously intolerant at times, but even I find his unsubtle attacks on Christianity to be trite and tactless.

While I wouldn't say I hate King, I fail to see the reason for so many of his books to exists. He's like Goosebumps for adults.

I'm developing a serious prejudice against American pop authors, it's disconcerting.
