Check out this hot new game.

Also, for fun times when you're sitting at your desk and have no work to do, which is always, consider some of these games:

Stoggerello,

I couldn't get into "Cat Got Lost," but I clicked on the other link and enjoyed playing through one of the games, "Every day the same dream." It was my kind of game - incredibly easy, but thematically weird and rich.

You are so coy, my cat.
Cat, you are the best cat in the whole world.

"Every day the same dream."

I liked this game, too.

[Prescott Dandelion]

Yes, that was actually the first of those games that I played. The screenshot compelled me to it. It was interesting, and I wish it had gone on just a bit longer.

Another kind of fun, easy game is from the November 9 page. It's called Small Worlds.

On the completely opposite end of the spectrum, I have something that I think might DELIGHT one JACK BOETTCHER. I have recently taken to TIME TRIALING on MARIO KART 64. However, I am only GOOD at one stage thus far, because I have concentrated my efforts on it ENTIRELY over the last 1.5 weeks. That stage is KOOPA TROOPA BEACH STAGE, and I have recorded a 1:26.68. That places me in the MASTER F category on mariokart64.com I play with TOAD. I aspire to someday reach your RANKING OF 511 IN THE WORLD (http://www.mariokart64.com/mk64/pl.cgi) in terms of GENERAL SKILL. I say this as a COMPLIMENT rather than a CHALLENGE. I will likely GIVE UP before I even learn all of the STAGES. I am achieving BLISTERS on my FINGERS. I am no MICHAEL JONGERIUS, aka MJ.

(Imagine that I had put a humorous, yet slightly irrelevant smiley here.)

That web site does NOT indicate my final level of Mario Kart Time Trialing expertise. I eventually reached the Elite level. I just never sent it in. You gotta believe me. I eventually got down to a 1:43.77 on Luigi Raceway. I can't imagine there ever being a comeback, but you never know.

[Prescott Dandelion]

I also recall your inclination toward comparing your time trial times to track events, i.e. nice 800.

The best part is how the game lives up to its title.

Here's a real game, for PS3. JC, play it and tell me if it's cool:

i have been looking at reviews for it. it seems nice.
currently in my lineup for the next 2 months are:
white knight chronicles
dante's inferno
demon's souls (own, not playing)
darksiders (own, currently playing)
final fantasy xiii
god of war iii
dragon age: awakening expansion
nier

i may throw heavy rain in there, but i imagine once 13 hits the shelves early march, i may be preoccupied...

This just got posted on AVC, and I haven't yet had time to play it. But tomorrow I'll definitely play all of these games to alleviate the vacuity of my working life. They look promising:

@ home with the flu, so I will give most of these a try. I have already beaten balloon in a wasteland, and it was very easy, but still worth playing. I started playing sushi cat a few days ago, and it was fun,too. Like playing plinko with a cat.
