No, it's not up for grabs. I'm just banishing it from my bedroom. It ate 6 or 8 hours of my life, and I don't want to spare that much time, not in such large chunks, to it.

See, the 360 can be hooked up to a computer monitor. Thus, while I don't have a TV in my bedroom, I can still play on the 360. And I did. Halo 3 is a magnificent game. It's stunning.

Actually, it's more of a progressive movie than a game. You fight, you die (a lot) and eventually, you pass. Do this enough times, and you get treated to a cinematic, a small segment of pre-rendered video, with pretty good voice acting and stirring music.

At any rate, I originally set up a second wiring harness in my office / bedroom so I could play the M-rated games without raising Kitten's ire. That is fine - I did, and it was a blast.

I'm just not letting it spend the night here. I can deal with the added overhead of unhooking it from the living room and hooking it up here each time I want to play it. That way, the added overhead may make me reconsider losing myself into it.

So I can spend more time with my friends here.

I missed you.
