Mega Thread The Random Thoughts Thread Part 1

Just got back from our first cruise. P&O on the Pacific Dawn. From Brisbane up the top end. Had a ball. It was a party boat for sure. I recommend it to anyone that wants a few days of indulgent leisure. I wouldn't do it in the Queensland summer, this time of year is the time.

Call into some exotic ports. But be prepared to have you're sea legs. It can be rough and boaty out on the open ocean. And it can be calm. You get what you get out there. Mrs got sea sick. I didn't. The food is fantastic. Do it!! An oppirtunity to see the top end of our beautiful country if you wouldn't otherwise drive. Done and dusted on the bucket list and loved it. Will do it again. Next time across the Tasman Sea and say hello to New Zealand.

Glad you enjoyed it but if I ever book a cruise I want someone to shoot me.

Should I post something special in acknowledgement of my 1000 mediocre posts, Sly?

Damn right.

Recently picked up a swag of older PS3 titles. I've just finished Uncharted 2 and wondering what to play next: Red Dead Redemption, Portal 2, Elder Scrolls V, or Deus Ex - Human Revolution. Recommendations?

Just "finished" RDR and moving onto Deus Ex - Human Revolution.

Thoughts on both?

Edit: Misread. Thoughts on RDR then?

GTA with a denouement. Finished all of the missions and nearly all the stranger side quests (can't find enough beaver to finalise one - boom tish), picked all the flowers, shot most of the animals, collected a few bounties, and haven't bothered trying to unlock all the outfits. This gets me to 79% complete.

Pretty impressive - 9/10. Would recommend.

The only game I've made it to 100%, at least in the modern era. I love it. My favourite game of the PS3/xbox 360 generation.

You're meant to start from a random page, not one you visit 2-3 times a week.

BTW, did you know that Punky Brewster had gigantomastia.

Now that's random.
