I really try not to be negative and give the benefit of the doubt, but I remember being given The Abduction by Mette Newth in high school and thinking that it had to be the single worst thing anyone has ever convinced an actual publishing house to release. I don't remember why it was so bad, but it has stuck with me for 15 years as being the epitome of awful.

If you can look past some of the dated vernacular, Web of the City by Harlan Ellison is a pretty good read for a more pulpy crime novel.

Although there is technically PS3 in my living room, my 3DS has been the sole console I play games on for the better part of 2 years. Most genres are well represented outside of shooters, sports and racing, so if you can live without those, you're golden. I would never be able to get through a game anymore if it wasn't for being able to play on the subway, at lunch, on the couch while the wife watches tv, etc. It's definitely doable, and being able to get most games on the eshop (or PSN) makes it even easier.

Fellow Philly Bomber here. There's a place in Drexel Hill called Game & DVD Exchange that will professionally resurface a disc for pretty cheap. It's a pain to get there, but worth it. Hope it works out.
