Having achieved detente with Dragon Quest VI, I think that I can finally put it down and get back into it with something else (seriously, that game just gets into your bones) and get into Phoenix Wright. Dude! Those games are fun! The general idea is that you collect evidence to enter into the record through interviews and digging, and then, in the trial, you figure out who is lying on the stand (it’s never your defendant) and figure out how what they are saying contradicts the evidence. “Oh, you say you heard the television… BUT I HAVE EVIDENCE RIGHT HERE THAT SHOWS THE BUILDING WAS IN A POWER OUTAGE!” (ooohs from the gallery)
Anyway, it’s a lovely little trifle and you find yourself hoping to catch every little trinket of evidence lest you screw up your trial.
So… what are you playing?

Very addicting. Very hard.Report
I have finished converting all of our old computers from XP to Lubuntu (a build of Ubuntu optimized for old, crappy hardware.) Mostly smooth, other than:
* It didn’t recognize the laptop’s wireless card. Some googling found the right driver, which recognizes and starts up the card, but appears not to do WPA quite right, because it can connect to one of our routers, but not the one it needs to connect to.
* There’s no linux driver for one of the older printers. (There’s also no post-XP Windows driver and no driver for the current version of MacOS. And it’s only about seven years old.) So, a perfectly serviceable printer is going to the recyclers.Report
Install XP on a box, and only use it to provide print services?Report

Portal 2. I’m loving the storyline and the gameplay concept is something I find positively innovating. Also, the characters are awesome.Report
Finally got the achievement in Arkham Origins for beating Shiva without taking damage. I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to do that. I had to restart that battle a few dozen times.Report
Holy crap. I can’t even imagine doing such a thing.Report
