Technically, there is a game plot within the story. The video game talk was kinda born out of trying to spot differences between the show and the games. Believe me, games today are a tad bit different than Space Invaders.

Nothing will ever top playing a game as a kid. But I will say this, nowadays games are like cinematic experiences. I've played games with 1 1/2 hour long cut scenes.

Never? Oh man. If you find yourself with time, buy it if you enjoy RPGs.
I find myself watching the show and wondering how you get 2 games out of this. The current season of Diablo has received a pretty tepid review. I think I’ve played about 4 hours in the last two months.
You still have a Boxer? Mine passed a couple years ago.

I wish I had the time. I think my GF would probably shoot me if I spent any more time than what I do now.
This season of TLOU is basically the second game of the series (there's only two games). It's weird because I hear they're looking at going three seasons with the show. Not sure if they're just stretching it out or what.
No boxer here. Might be someone else on the forum, although I'm looking at getting a dog soon. Preferably a German Shepherd. My next door neighbor is a former K-9 officer, and she's brought some home to foster. Such a great breed, as are boxers.
