I haven't played a music game for over a year now. Probably closer to two. Feels good, man.

Finally finished the first Assassin's Creed, well worth the effort!

Have bought 6 games while stuck in Melbourne, Gothic 4 being surprisingly enjoyable if somewhat in a 'my first RPG' kind of way. Vanquish is spastically difficulyt even on normal.

About to crack open Fable 3 :D

I want to try vanquish. I heard its really hard.

Might give my hands a good workout. Or my "throwing controller across the room" arm a go.

Addicted to the custom maps in SC2, 'cause I suck horribly at 1v1 :(

Quoted for massive loads of truth. I remember playing the first mass effect and doing that mission where you go to that infected planet, anyways went down the sewers, back up, finished the quest and was on my way back to the ship and then boom....crashed. One hour of gaming gone.

Ive got heaps of games to check out after uni exams. Batman AA, Mass Effect 2, Fallout New Vegas, Assassins Creed and probably a bunch more.

Following sequential order is for suckers.

Also, I finished Assassin's Creed II a couple of days ago. Just got a little bit of mopping up and it's all done - same with the first one.

Feels good man.

Just beat Button in a thrilling finish on a sopping wet Catalunya. Came in one tenth ahead, and I absolutely hate that last chicane.

Looking forward to going home and grabbing the NFS HP demo.

/me goes back to Fable 3

Oh, Fable 3. I respect Peter Molyneux trying to be innovative, but there are so many annoyances about this game. Doesn't stop it being fantastic, though.

There are some elements it could go without but it's still a great game.

It's VERY easy (as were the last two), but this is Fable afterall, the joy is in the interactions.



In other news, i go crazy when I'm bored (I'm in Melbourne supporting an ill family member) and just picked up Star Wars FU2 and UFC 2010. That's seven new games in a week :-/

I guess it's that or what I used to do when I lived here...lots of drugs :(

Dead Rising 2 is dominating my nights, there's just something about zooming around in an electric wheelchair with SMGs shooting zombies that just makes me feel good.
I keep telling myself I'll get around to finishing Shadows of Chernobyl sooner or later, but I never get far into it, due to silly annoyances, but I vow to finish it post HSC, along with finishing all the Riddler riddles in Arkham Asylum.

And I'll probably get shot for saying this, but also on my list is Aliens vs Predator. I really want to finish the campaigns, albiet they're extremely underwhelming and repetitive.
