Random question for you guys. How would you consider a game without an end beaten? Like Atari games/pinball games/games impossible to beat without HUGE year long time sinks like Tetris? Do you have a try limit, time limit, personalized score limit? Or is there some other method/metric you use?

For games like that, I just stop until I've had enough. For example, I'll play Kirby's Pinball Land for as little as ten minutes or up to 45 minutes. It just depends on my mood.

Well, I went to Too Many Games. Primarily, I went just to be able to say that I've been once. Overall, not bad. Not that much better than your average gaming con, aside from having a few YouTube personalities there, which is kinda cool. We listened to Mike Matei and Bootsy talk for a while and then James Rolfe popped in the door and sat down pretty much right beside us, trying to disguise himself as an audience member to the panel.

The marketplace however, was yet another eye opening experience and testament to the ever rising cost of games.  Lots of titles that used to be $20 or $30 last year and now commonly priced at double. As a the most notorious among them all continue to soar closer to and over $200, there are now a lot of new "heavy hitters" that have entered into that $50 - $80 range that you'd have never thought would make it there a few years ago. I didn't buy much, but still spent a lot of money. That's the nature of these cons.

I usually play Jetpack Joyride Deluxe (vita) probably about an hour a night before I go to bed. That game is so mindless but does help me settle before I sleep.

(What's your PSN id? it's in your signature I'm stupid. I sent you a friend request!)

On a side note, you seem to be house sitting pretty often. That sounds both boring and awesome at the same time  Being paid to play games is the dream.
