Friday night, spent well over an hour trying to explore and do all the objectives on Liberty Island, reloading saves when encounters didn't go well or was discovered. I had come off of Bioshock and the original System Shock on DOSbox, and I figured I could go for another 'thinking man's' shooter. I looked through my steam library looking for games I haven't gone through yet and noticed Deus Ex near the top of that list. The one spot that most players my age (almost all, maybe) would've done the same, and for good reason. Bought it, started playing, and went to something else after getting frustrated with Liberty Island, on two separate occasions. I had a bunch of money to spend, guess I had no excuse not to ignore this game and see what it was all about. A highly revered title by Warren Spector, and constantly put on sale for cheap prices. As of right now I finished my five initial buys during Christmas: Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, Bioshock, Mirror's Edge, and the last one Deus Ex. Only bought 10 games, a mix of huge and indie.

It's mid-January, and I still have not gotten to all the games I bought on Steam during the Christmas sale.
