(Still no header image. I'm debating as to whether I really need one or not, considering the frequency of my updates) I'm not really surprised that it's been over a month since my last blog, and neither are you, I'm sure. Whatever, I write when I have something substantial to write about, so stop complaining. First things first, a couple of things tangentially related to playing video games has...
(One day, I'll make a header image for this thing...) Wow, I haven't done a R&R blog in over a month. But hey, you need time to blog ( or an unhealthy amount of alcohol ); these last few weeks have been killer and it's not going to get any better until June. You see, my sister is getting married. It's kind of a big deal. Anyway, on to games. First up is: Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destr...
I've been playing a lot of Kick-Ass recently. I am tired of playing Kick-Ass. Well, despite everyone's warnings , I went ahead and got it... for science . Turns out, it was pretty much exactly what I expected - a mediocre brawler that'll be more fun co-op... and possibly inebriated. Regardless, Frozen Codebase did a pretty good job for a eight-month project. They said they had to narrow their f...
I'm thinking about finishing Persona 3 . Saying it like that might not sound crazy to you, but you have to look at it from my perspective. I haven't touched it since last summer for a good many reasons, but recently it seems like there's also a good many reasons why I should try to finish it now. Reason #1 : I just finished watching the Persona 4 Endurance Run A little late, I know. The funny t...
It's been awhile since I've updated. Stuff has happened. I beat some games: Turok Bioshock 2 Battlefield: Bad Company 2 GTA IV: Lost and Damned Trine N.O.V.A. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat Freedom Fighters Metro 2033 I'm not going to write about all of these because, frankly, I've forgot some details, but I'll give my thoughts on a couple of them. I guess I should update a little more often. T...
Well, my journey toward gaming bliss is on its way: Tonight, I finished Batman: Arkham Asylum and Condemned 2: Bloodshot. And, like I said in my previous blog post, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and Bioshock 2 are in the mail as we speak. Net gain: 0. Oh well. Thoughts on Batman: AA First of all, absolutely amazing game. I totally understand why it was one of the top 5 games of last year. One thin...
Today I made two lists, mostly for myself. The first is "Games I Need to Finish" and the second is "Games I Need to Start." Both of these lists include AAA titles, classics, and games that are all generally considered "good" from this and last generation. Each list is about 30 games long. Now, I consider playing games to be a hobby and with that comes a certain amount of "collection" but holy j...
