Yeah, I was right about the ominous turn of the calendar that brought December upon us. MrsBlue informed me that we are braving the crowds to do some holiday shopping today. Okay, where's the eggnog?

Anyone been playing Blink this weekend? While I like the premise, I am finding the gameplay kind of crappy. I die all the time, and have no idea how, then spend 30s on my back waiting for some medic to revive me. Even for $5, I think it's a pass. Has anyone else had a more positive experience?

One of my biggest gripes with the game was the offense would capture points, but you couldn't respawn there. So you either laid there waiting on a medic, or you respawned all the way back at the beginning, and had to run back. This, combined with some obvious choke points on maps, really killed the game, I thought.

Yes, exactly. Thanks for elucidating exactly what I was experiencing.




Man is equally incapable of seeing the nothingness from which he emerges and the infinity in which he is engulfed.
