Wow, been a while since my last journal.

So anyway, have I ever mentioned that the marketing department at Valve is full of geniuses? They came up with a way to introduce people to a bunch of fun games, possibly release Portal 2 early, and naturally, make a whole lot of money.

The basic idea is, Steam is selling a pack of indie games at a super-cheap price (seen here: [link] ) , and each game that is played this weekend will go towards charging GlaDOS up for her return. Even running one of the games alt+tab'd will contribute towards the total, so even if you don't have time to play, you can still add to the total. I can personally attest that Super Meat Boy is freakin' awesome. Or, if you want something more cerebral, Cogs is giving me wonderful headaches right now.

So anyhow, I can't wait for Portal 2. It's going to be awesome, and all you have to do to help me get it earlier is to fool around with a few games this weekend.
