Gaming.

I was a little bad and spent some money I shouldn't have. I downloaded Scrabble for Hasbro Family Game Night, intending to stop there, then snagged Peggle, it's addicting, and then snagged Dig Dug for the awesome price of 200 ms points. Wish there were some more games at that price.

Anyway, I love Scrabble. I was playing the demo like crazy despite the fact it timed out. I can just pick it up, play, and score a few hundred points a game easily. What's nice is that I now have 120/200 for just Scrabble and 120/1400 for Hasbro Family Game Night, a little under 10% for that one.

Peggle, honestly, is just addictive. I'm on the second to last master in the adventure mode and enjoying it. The strategy in it is great despite the randomness. I'm working on being able to clear each board completely, only have two or three mastered right now. I've got 50/200 in Peggle right now, definately not as hard to get points in as some of the other Pop Cap titles.

As for Dig Dug, just like with Anime I know my roots when it comes to gaming and appreciate many of the older games. Pac-Man took many a quarter from me when I was younger and Dig Dug got a few of them too. It's fun working through the levels and getting the various pickup achievements, simple but fun, and I even got the 2 Enemies achievement without trying. Dig, where I have to dig through the entire level, is going to be much harder. Currently standing at 70/200.
