Lego Star Wars Ate My Brain!
Having an obsessive-compulsive personality can really suck up your free time, y'know?
Ever since I picked up LSW2, I've spent most of my time playing it. At this rate, I won't have any mocs ready for NWBC. My kids are PO'd that Daddy is hogging all the video game time. Blah blah blah. Whadevah. Talk to the hand, squirts.
I've gotten through the "story" mode, and am working my way through the Free Play mode, collecting all the goodies and building up my stud count. EpIV is done, except for the bonus and one stinkin' canister on the first level. I even bought a guide to help me through, but it doesn't have any maps (I wouldn't have bought it had I realized that) and the text is teensy - not good for my old eyes.
At this rate, I'll be finished with it just in time to tear away for the convention weekend. But at the cost of not doing anything else.
Who needs a clean house anyway? O_O
The same thing happened with the first LSW game - bloodshot eyes, staying up waaaaay too late, ignoring most everything else until the bloody thing is conquered. The first time it happened, with the Marathon series by Bungee, my wife about divorced me. So I'm not allowed casual video game time.
(Actually, I've spent quite a bit of time playing multiplayer with the kids, so that's good. They don't really have any room to complain, especially since they're better and faster at it than I am.)
