First, I need to thank Jpmadrox, Rross9013, and NeoJedi for great games of Uno this weekend. A screenshot of the action: Yes, we used every card in the deck (without picking cards up by ourselves). It was insane! And, as you can see in the screenshot, I broke down and purchased the PGR3 Uno deck. It's ok. For some more screenshots and info on the new deck, go here. Also, Chromehounds had a bit of a revival this weekend for some reason. People in my squad were actually playing! It was kind of nice to get back in the game.

In other news, I finally got around to "repairing" my Steel Battalion controller today. I switched the brake into the slidestep pedal spot. You don't really need the brake to play, so, although I'm not at 100%, I can get back into the action! I will, however, continue to look for used copies of the game at local game stores, and harass Sega/Capcom until I get my parts.
