What I've been playing (September)

Oct 3, 2011

Now that my girlfriend is back at school, I've had a bunch of free time to finish some games that have been teetering atop my pile of shame for a while: Borderlands (360): Finally wrapped up Borderlands with jimmah7 (co-op), but we still have a mountain of DLC ahead of us. I played through the PS3 version back in 2009 (and it became my #5 game of 2009), but I never really got into the DLC, so I...

What I've been playing (August)

Oct 3, 2011

I didn't end up playing a lot of games during the month of August, mostly due to moving my girlfriend into her apartment and spending most of my weekends there. However, during the month of August I did pick up an iPad which has since replaced my laptop as my web-browsing device of choice. I also use it for gaming while watching Netflix, which comprised most of my gaming this month: Death Rally...

Jul 28, 2011

Here are the games that have kept me occupied during the month of July: inFamous 2 (PS3): It feels like it's been so long since I wrapped this one up. I felt it had a pretty weak ending, considering how much I enjoyed the rest of the game. Also, some of the powers I earned near the end of the game could have been spaced out better, considering I barely got to use some of them. One of the better...

Give Me Input: My Future "Arcade Machine"

Jul 15, 2011

Ever since I was a kid, I've dreamed about one day owning an arcade machine. Listening to the latest Giant Bombcast about California Extreme has me all excited about getting some sort of arcade machine set-up for when I get an apartment next spring. My main uncertainty is whether I want an HD LED-LCD for modern games ( MvC3 , SSFIV , Mortal Kombat , BlazBlue:CT / CS ) or an old-school CRT for c...

Steam Summer Sale: Round Two

Jul 12, 2011

Steam once again had their big summer sale and for the second summer in a row, I spent more than I should have. The sale lasted from June 30th - July 10th and the following chronicles my purchases, so you can once again laugh at me for how much I spent on PC games that I may or may not get around to playing: $16.74 - Frozen Synapse (Already worth every penny!) $ 2.50 - Bit.Trip.Runner $ 3.24 -...

What I've been playing:

Jul 3, 2011

Since I'm getting to the point that I'm only updating this once a month, I figured I'd mention games I played in June first: Just Cause 2 (360): Played through all of the story and many of the side missions, totaling around 19 hours of play. However, since Just Cause 2 is such a big game, I completed it with a mere 28.15% completion rate. Much, much more to do. I really enjoy messing around wit...
