Just Another Day at the Office

When you work at a game company, there's always a risk of a Nerf ambush. That's why I always carry one of these:


I've been playing a few new games for the DS lately - Age of Empires, Brain Age and Lost Magic. I'll be posting some impressions, reviews, etc. in the coming days. Let me just say this - I'm really digging the stylus. Well, that's all for now. Until I see you again, watch your back.

Wow... that's sharp! Skip Squirrelhard should keep a 'working' version in the trunk of his car... =)

Yep. Evidently it was an exclusive made just for Toys R Us. Like most things in that store, it's probably long gone now. It can fire off 20 darts in less than a second, then it takes a 100 times that long to find them all and reload! :)

...if I took one of those to my workplace, I would be fired. Bunch o' uptight pansies...

Why bother finding the expended ammo? Just buy a 1,000 pack of nerf darts. Hours of fun, and there will be so many darts on the floor that it will always be easy to reload.

And where, pray tell, would I find that? Details, Jeff, I need details!

...they used to carry packs of 20 or 50 at Fred Meyer's Grocery, but I haven't seen them in awhile.

Well let me know if you see any - I'm going to need spares one of these days... ;)

Holy Crap...

Nerf markets to kids who are around the age of 9. How the heck are they supposed to hold that thing?

You need some of these, for tracking down the Vampires in sales:
