Gaming Update #13: The Unlucky Number

by natetodamax

I didn't think I was going to do another one of these, but since I'm a bit burned out on Dragon Age at the moment, I thought I would bring back to life my Gaming Update series. Wanna know something cool? I haven't had school since last Friday. We've had snow days all week, and we won't be back in school until Tuesday.

I didn't think I was going to do another one of these, but since I'm a bit burned out on Dragon Age at the moment, I thought I would bring back to life my Gaming Update series. Wanna know something cool? I haven't had school since last Friday. We've had snow days all week, and we won't be back in school until Tuesday. The bad thing is that my summer is now much shorter (provided we didn't use up all of our snow days in one week).
 

What I've Been Playing

 
If you've been keeping up with my Dragon Age diaries, you'd know that I'm on my second playthrough. I think I'm gonna take a break from that game for a while, since I spent several days playing only that. I decided to start my second playthrough in Mass Effect 2. In case you were wondering, I think that game is awesome. I was a little tired of it after beating it for the first time, which is the reason why I spent so much time with Dragon Age. But now, I'm switching it up and I shall be playing ME2 for the next few days, hopefully mopping up some achievements that I missed. I also got Bioshock 2 yesterday, and hey, that game is not bad. My first impression of the multiplayer was "This is absolutely terrible" but now after learning how to play it 'tis actually a blast. I'm currently in the process of working on a Multiplayer Guide (coonce inspired me), and so far it's looking really good. One of the things I got from single player was the very strong urge to play the first game. Since I traded it in for Left 4 Dead (a move I do not regret), I've always wanted to play through the game one more time. I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up buying it in the near future. I'll probably review the sequel in the near future, so I'll hold all my thoughts on the game till then.
 

What I Want To Play

 
Final Fantasy 13 still holds my interest. That's really all that's on my wish list at the moment. 
 

Things You Should Check Out

 
And so Gaming Update #13 ends. Maybe I'll get this back on a regular schedule. Maybe I won't. Who knows. 
 
Until next time, children.
