PC Game Night

I guess the last PC computer game I remember purchasing was Sim Tower (definitely one of my favorites of the Sim series) sometime around the end of middle school/the beginning of high school...so we're talking about 12 years ago. And thus as this anecdotal evidence demonstrates, except for the phenomenon that is MMORPG gaming like World of Warcraft, mass-market consumers have largely deserted PC computer gaming for the more desirable world of console gaming.

That being said, I highly recommend you download the following two PC computer games, ASAP. The first game is Popcap's Peggle, an incredibly addictive 'Snood meets Brick Breaker' type of game with tons of unique levels and game mechanics; also available is the equally fun expansion companion game Peggle Nights. The second game is Blendo's Gravity Bone (...must...suppress...immature...joke...), a fascinatingly quirky spy game that can only be appreciated by playing it for yourself; plus, the entire arc of the game takes about 10 amusing minutes to complete, classic dramatic ending included.

And, I've saved the best news for last...these games are absolutely FREE! The direct download link for Peggle is here, for Peggle Nights is here, and for Gravity Bone is here. There are full versions of Peggle and Peggle Nights available for purchase, but the free trial versions offer more than enough gaming fun to last a long while.

Go now and start downloading, you'll thank me later. Oh, I almost forgot to mention...Peggle involves a talking unicorn and Gravity Bone involves exploding birds. Like I said, you'll thank me later.
