Why is WinDirStat so amazing? :o
Because of pretty, yet informative colors.

Am I the only one perplexed by the size of those three .EXE files on the right middle?  They are bigger than some of the MP3 albums to the left (album I assume is [in blue].mp3s + [in red].jpg album art).  These could easily be 100MB+ executable files.  I guess I'm just not used to seeing them that large.

I guess they could be self extracting zips but three of them in such proximity and the same relative size.

Anyway back on topic...

Borderlands is 75% off this weekend. Not the best game I've ever played, but still a good time sink.

Yeah, I'd already used WinDirStat when I said that. It helped me clean large portions of my hard drive.

And re Borderlands: Boring. Not worth it at 25% of its cost, I'd say.

I'll heartily disagree with you there. I'd recommend it.

CrimeCraft: Bleedout is free. I don't know if it's always free or just for a limited time. They're also giving away a stuff pack for new accounts. I've never heard of it and I have no idea if it's good, but I need a change so I'm downloading now.

I played CrimeCraft during Beta. It was decent. Not great - the loading between instances was really slow, and it got pretty frustrating at times because you'd have to go into PVP-only areas to complete a PVE mission. Combine that with it not being sure if it's a MMORPG with FPS elements or vice-versa, and I lost interest and stopped playing after a few weeks.

EDIT: I liked Borderlands, but the thing where ALL the enemies in an area respawn if you do pissed me off. When I was fighting a boss and then had to go through all the dudes again just to get to the fat bastard got really annoying, really fast.

Suffice it to say, I find WinDirStat more compelling than Borderlands.

WinDirStat looks pretty entertaining, actually.

After an hour long firefight in the only mission I had available in which I refilled my ammo 3 times only to kill one large person by repeatedly shooting him in the head approximately 700 times I decided I didn't like borderlands.

What mission was that? I don't recall ever having that much trouble killing people in borderlands.

I don't remember, its been a while since I played. It was just after you unlock the vehicles and you have to go into some area to wipe out a bunch of guys (I know, that is EVERY mission). There was a big guy who absorbed every bullet from every gun I owned and that took him down by about 1/3 of his total health
