Mark vs. the Monster: The Pile of Shame
http://markvsthemonster.blogspot.com/2010/06/pile-of-shame.html
Mark vs. the Monster. Monday, June 21, 2010. The Pile of Shame. So here it is the actual pile of shame! So it's about 10 less cases than actual games on the pile of shame. There are still advantages to physical copies of games though. I like having the manuals and being able to quickly look at all my games in one place. I am much more likely to actually play a game if it is someplace I can see. And UFC Undisputed 2010. And then try to plug away at Rock Band 2. If I have time. Posted by Mark K. Im still o...

http://markvsthemonster.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Mark vs. the Monster. Thursday, March 25, 2010. AC/DC Live: Rock Band Track Pack. I was totally in the mood for some Rock Band 2. Today after I waited for the bus for an hour this afternoon! But by the time I got home I had a headache. After dinner I felt better and did play Rock Band. Some AC/DC Live Track Pack. That is. It was after 10 (after 30 Rock. So it was too late to rock out on the drums. So I played a few songs on Guitar in the Medium Solo Tour. It's really regrettable that AC/DC Live. And play...

Mark vs. the Monster: August 2010
http://markvsthemonster.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Mark vs. the Monster. Sunday, August 1, 2010. Hey everyone, so I've gotten behind on this blog because my wife had the baby early! It's a baby boy and he and his mom are both doing well. For internet purposes we're going to refer to him as Mark Rypien Jr. He's three weeks old now and we're starting to settle back into a schedule. So how has this affected my pile of shame? During the hospital stay I did make some more progress on Pokemon Platinum. I've also still managed to keep playing Rock Band 2. It st...

Mark vs. the Monster: Where you at?
http://markvsthemonster.blogspot.com/2010/06/where-you-at.html
Mark vs. the Monster. Sunday, June 13, 2010. So, where have I been for the past few weeks? I haven't been meaningfully neglected this blog, but too many other things have gotten in the way such as work and life. I haven't chipped away much at the ol' pile of shame at all lately. I have been steadily attacking Rock Band 2. Slowly but surely. That campaign seems a lot longer than the original's or maybe its my lack of four hour play sessions. As excited as I was for Green Day Rock Band. I've only played th...
