    Actually if you type in google "Escape The Room Games" you might find a lot of options Mon. :p

    But I saved you the work and found one site for them just now. I don't think I've tried any of these ones, so hopefully there is something good :).

    Have fun, and try not to get too worked up about them :D.

    I can't get Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata out of my head that I listened to three days ago. For an "earworm" it's one of the more pleasant.

    I also have a love-hate relationship with PC point and click games. I guess for it depends on how humorous, witty, or original the story is. I especially liked Grim Fandago, The Longest Journey, Space Quest VI, and Trace Memory (technically a DS title, but still cool).

    Get this my local video store didn't have any copies of the 80s sci-fi classic Dune, the hell ? It's a classic they should have it.

    Funny you should mention Dune, it was on TV here a couple of days ago, so I recorded it.

    It's a cult classic at best.



    And cult classic most often means piece of crap :shake:

    You mean like 2001: A space odyssey? :D I was staring at changing colors for 20 minutes... Still glad I've seen it (it is a classic afterall), but not much entertainment.

    Dune ... STING .... I remember parts of that movie :D. I loved the books. I think the Fatboy Slim lyric in his Weapon of Choice song was referring to it. "Walk without rhythm and you won't attract the worm."

    @ Mon - did you check out that page of Escape the Room games?

    Stop it, Dune was a great movie! The book was better, yes, but the movie is still good.

    Yeah, I tried some. I guess I prefer adventure games with more character interaction. Or maybe I misunderstood the whole concept of "click & play"... :s

    But thanks! :)

    LOL it's ok Mon- I play those rarely. They do get pretty old fast :smash:

    I wasn't saying that Dune was not a good movie! I was just saying that Sting was of particular interest to me :p.

    ThaiKiwi?

    I'm from Taiwan, not Thailand, if that's the reference you're making :lol:

    Stuff is not bad. It's been a cold two days. We have snow! And, I finished my Honours degree in April (First Class Honours in History). And I'm working now - an unglamous Document Wench job, but at least it's got a fancy, CV-boosting title ("Information Assistant at the Canterbury Earthquake Royal Commission").

    I feel the Royal really sells the proceedings. Makes me feel like a spy.

    Uuhg! Yeah... My bad. :o

    Weather's nice here, warm. Not too sunny, though. But better than last week, when it was rainy. But you won't hear me complaining. We had Great weather before that and felt like my shoulder caught fire at the swimming pool. Got a nice sunburn.

    Congrats with the job! I'm currently without one, which shucks. So... Royal, eh? Does that mean we have to call you Ser Deathmage, now. Or Lord Arrr? :D

    Well when I say local I meant "within walking distance", but in reality it's a Videotron store, part of big company who's also an ISP, a cable company, and since this year a cell phone carrier.

    Anyway, as if I haven't bored you lot enough already, here's some baby pictures!
