WOW!!!

Age of Empires 2 is so popular even now that they actually made an expansion for it... 16 years after its release.

That's because AoE2 is awesome.

AoE1 was also awesome, but seems to get less love though.

That is great! Less surprising since they released that HD edition last year, but that was remarkable itself. Good to see a classic getting love like this (:

There's one coming for Age of Mythologies, too, which I'm looking forward to considerably more :V

Those games were the best. For some reason, word of mouth seemed to be enough to spread it, irrelevant of age. Glad to hear they're still ongoing.

I just wish they hadn't halfassed the HD rerelease.

One of my first gaming memories (though not the first) was playing AoEII on a computer so old that I got about 5 FPS. I learned more about history from that game than from any class prior to taking 400-level stuff during my bachelor's.

When did StarCraft come out?  I suspect that sucked up all the oxygen in the RTS room.

Surprisingly, the original release was in '98, one year before AoEII.

I suspect that it helped that they were pretty radically different as RTSes went.

... that's unusual for you? Ever since there's been the space to spare, my hard drives hover in the 20-30 gig range (sometimes lower if I'm not paying attention), regardless of how large the actual drive is. Currently at 22.8/451. Nature abhors a void, but there needs to be some space or the computer will start freaking out :V

Nature's abhorrence of a void increases exponentially as the volume of the void increases.

Computers just compute.

Toothache, major one. Ouch

Was taking apparently expired Ibuprofen. Either I was in an unimaginable amount of pain untreatable by any medicine or that stuff didn't work. I looked on the label and it was expired in 2012. Things still aren't perfect but I can already see some improvement. That is to say, any improvement at all.

I'm kinda happy that there's some relief from pain as opposed to zero. And I thought everyone said expiration dates didn't matter. Wow.

The Ibuprofen probably degrades over time and the expiry date is probably when it stops being properly effective.

Just my guess.

Well another Adventure Time season...

I dunno it feels weaker and more depressing the longer the show goes on. I almost feel like the show should just end with Fin committing suicide.
