    Computers do only what they're told.

    Well that's just not true. My computer delights in doing whatever I ask it not to.

    "Hello computer, would you like to start up so I can do some work?"

    "No, I'd rather die slowly and painfully, just to remind you how much I hate you."

    I wish that my computer knows that, because sometimes it is acting weird. Also, you don't have to worry I had the same problem when I played 'The Devil Inside'. I was that close to finish that game, when suddenly the game freezes up.

    Is it just me or do you blame the terrorist for everything that went wrong? Now, go and play the game, I think that you will be more lucky this time.

    Technically, if the terrorists hadn't attacked the WTC, it would have taken longer for the war in Iraq to take place, and the economy would have had more time to develop better computer technology before we went into recession.

    Probably not true, but just a perspective, you know?

    That could be technical right, because everything started to go wrong, when the WTC was attacked by the terrorists. Also, we should blame the greedy bankers for the recession.

    No everything started to go wrong when the Americans decided it was a good idea for the banks to lend money to people who they knew couldn't repay them.

    Valiant effort. It is by no means easy to accomplish. I made it thirteen hours before I got killed by 6 or so swat team members with 50 cals. Good luck on your second attempt.

    I prefer to blame the bankers AND the government for the recession and their broken window policies.

    The mentioned the food hall in the mall had a lot of food in the last game, was asking about when you plan to hit that.

    Hey, let me know if you need any help on that front. Feel free to tag a brother in.

    You know, so you can concentrate on your game.

    I've been playing for 10 hours now. I think I'm going to win this.

    Only if you can guarantee to keep her occupied. The last time I was focused on a game and she needed my attention she would not take no for an answer and thus my daughter was conceived. Of course she had to choose the moment I was fighting Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts.

    Edit: It has now been 12 hours. My kids are now awake and the threat of one of them messing with my game has gone to Orange Alert.

    Re-Edit: 13 hours complete. I have enough food to last 2 real time hours and also a 50 caliber rifle, a sword, and a hunting knife. I'm also locked in a zombie free room. As long as my game doesn't freeze or I'm stricken with a power outage I shall be victorious in 1 hours time.

    After 14 hours of non-stop gameplay I have finally beaten the Dead Rising challenge.

    Now I'm going to get at least a few hours sleep before work.
