Goodbye cool world

Yesterday I picked up the microbe from nursery wearing my black Heisenberg T-shirt (a thing I swore I'd never wear out of the house) and my glasses that are held together with tape.

G looked at me and said "I wonder where my girlfiend has gone?"

I blame all of this 'Rimming... It has turned me. I am now officially the anti-Twickermum.

Someone on LJ posted a plea today for people to join her 'guild' in the brand new online version of the Rimworld.... and I was TEMPTED... but, alas, it's only for people who play on a PC.  (I have always thought of PC gamers as thoroughbred geeks, far ahead of the Xbox dilettantism practiced by people like me.  But now my decent has begun... )

I played a bit more of Elder Scrolls Online at the weekend, and while it's fun I'm a little unconvinced. Mostly by the cost- it'll be something like £50 for the game and then £9 a month to play, which is a lot if you can't guarantee the time you'll have on it. But I have no idea how long it'll be before the next xBox game comes out- there was 5 years I think in between Oblivion and Skyrim. Though Skyrim is three years old this year.

That is insanely expensive. I have only ever bought single player games, so the idea of paying twice - once for the game, and again every time you play it - hadn't even occurred to me!
