One of the higher-ups assigned me to take care of a new creature. It looks like a skinned gorilla to me. I was instructed to feed it live animals. When I threw in a pig, the creature seemed to play with it – tearing off the pig’s legs and pulling out the guts before it actually started eating.

At around 5 A.M., Scott woke me up. Scared the **** out of me, too. He was wearing a protective suit. He handed me another one and told me to put it on. Said there’d been an accident in the basement lab. I just knew something like this would happen. Those bastards in Research never sleep, not even on holidays, so it was only a matter of time before one of them slipped up.

I’ve been wearing this damn space suit since yesterday. My skin’s getting grimy and feels itchy all over. The ******* dogs have been looking at me funny, so I decided not to feed them today. Screw ‘em.

Found a big blister on my foot this morning. I ended up dragging my foot all the way to the dogs’ pen. They were quiet all day, which is weird. Then I realized some of them had escaped. Maybe this is their way of getting back at me for not feeding them the last three days. If anybody finds out, I’ll have my head handed to me.

A rumour is going around that a researcher who tried to escape the estate last night was shot. My entire body feels hot and itchy and I’m sweating all the time now. I scratched the swelling on my arm and a piece of rotten flesh just dropped off. What the hell’s happening to me?

Any historical significance to posting this now?
Because I've entered my gaming twilight.
Few games have captured me the way the games of my youth did. DOOM (PC) and Resident Evil (Saturn/PS), and later Half-Life (PC), were the high water marks of gaming for me.
The stuff that comes out now, like a Call of Duty 4 or a Bioshock, as good as they are don't capture me like those older games used to.
It's for a combination of reasons, but I can see a time in the very near future where I may not play video games at all.
And as the end draws near I'm remembering some great times.
Remember the very first time you read that diary in-game?
Wasn't that a great moment?

I actually had better moments in that game. Starting the game from the beginning because I was too wasteful of ammo was a much bigger memory for me. It made me feel that the difficulty of gaming past has come back.
If you still have a Saturn, you should try to pick up Dragon Force, (still my best RPG of all time) and The Horde. The Horde has a sim-city/rampart type feel, when you are protecting your town from invading monsters, all the while Kirk Cameron is narrating. Its not bad actually.
Are you getting married?
