I recognise pretty much all of those games... but I've only played two of them.

EDiT: 15832

[Michen_S]

1 + 5 + 8 - 3 - 8 = 3

Oh yeah, also Never Alone.
I play a lot of games.

I've just been playing way too much XCOM 2 recently... and managed to complete the campaign! I mean, it went pretty horribly, but I won!

[Michen_S]

1 ^ (5 + 8) * -3 + 8 = 5

I'm not familiar with whatever that is.

Okay... so, it's turn-based tactical strategy, in which you are trying to overthrow an oppressive alien government, ADVENT, as a small resistance unit known as XCOM (Extraterrestrial Combat).

[Michen_S]

-1 + 5 - 8 + 3 + 8 = 7

Sounds like Codename S.T.E.A.M.

What is Codename S.T.E.A.M?

[Michen_S]

-1 + 5! / 8 + 3 - 8 = 9

A steampunk-ish turn-based strategy game where the world has been overrun by aliens and you need to get the aliens out of there.

Getting the aliens out of things is one of my favourite passtimes... c:

[Michen_S]

1 - 5 - 8 + 4 + 8 = 0

Can't we just get visited by E.T. or something instead?

[Brisky]

158391

I didn't say that "things" didn't include goverment captivity!

[Michen_S]

(-1 + 5 + 8) / (-3 + 9) = 2

Unfortunately, in Codename: S.T.E.A.M. are only out to kill... pretty much everything.

[Brisky]

158394

Including themselves!?

[Michen_S]

1 * 5 + 8 * (3 - √9) = 5

...You can trick some of them into attacking each other, yes...

Something really hilarious just happened...

So, I was testing out this new speedloader I got, filling a few magazines, and stuff. And the father figure randomly swooped by and started curiously inspecting one of the mags that I had just fully loaded.

Now, you have to understand, that the way these airsoft magazines work, is that there's a spring that pushes the BB's back out, but at the faceplate, there's a small switch that prevents them from leaving the magazine.

Once loaded inside the gun, the switch is depressed by a pawl, and the BB's are pressed into the gun with quite a lot of force.


So, my dad, looking at the face plate of the magazine, spotted the switch on the fully loaded mag, and actually decided to press it...


All I heard was this loud zip, and blast of BB's scattering all over the house, before I saw my dad sitting with the mag in his hands, staring at the faceplate with at least a day's supply worth of BB's riddled all over and under his clothes, and looking rather perplexed, to say the least...


Not to laugh at my ol' man's expensenses, but I bet he felt quite bamboozled!  X'D
