The dueling minigame. Seriously Valve? What a horrible idea; you should fire who thought of it. Also Mann Co. Crate. $2.49 to buy a key. I'm still unsure if I'll buy a key or if I'll trade the crate. And finally I got a Degreaser, which I don't want either. I take that back, it's awesome. I also got a Holy Mackerel, but I'll stick with my Sandman. GIVE ME A HAT ALREADY PLEASE
Games for Windows Live has Age of Empires III: Complete Collection on sale today for a mere 10 cents. While I have yet to play it, you have no excuse to pass this sale up.
Beat Batman: Arkham Asylum on Normal Difficulty today. It was more challenging (better AI, Batman takes more damage), but it went quicker cuz I knew what to do. Getting the "Bigger Bang" achievement puts me at exactly 2000 Gamerscore on Games for Windows Live. Hard Difficulty here I come. |-|\/|
Five dollar Assassin's Creed. ... Okay, so it doesn't sound as good as "five dollar foot longs." GET OVER IT. plzkthx Ultimately, 5 bucks for AC was too great (or rather too little ) to resist. It's currently downloading at a rate of about 90 kb/s on my amazingly horrendous DSL connection. Oh how I wish I had a faster interwebs... |-|\/|
I returned to the College of Winterhold to see if Arniel's experiment was a success. Upon arrival I and several mages fought an Ancient Dragon. I talked to another mage who said that a rift had been opened by the Eye and I need to close it. I made it to Arniel; turns out he was missing yet another item. The courier had gone missing, so I went out to find him and the package. I arrived to a cave full of spiders. Surprise surprise, he's dead. I grabbed the item, a dagger, and returned it. Arniel s
It apparently only took me 6.6 hours to beat. It seemed like longer, mostly because of some of the ridiculous parts I had to redo several times. Like those droid dispensers that have INFINITE DROIDS. And there's two of them. And it takes 20 seconds to plant an explosive. And the Super Battle Droids take exceedingly large amounts of damage to destroy. And your whole squad is incapacitated. Also, the ending was a perfect setup for a sequel. WHY ISN'T THERE ONE
I JUST GOT A NEW COMPUTER I DO NOT WANT TO SPEND TIME IN SCHOOL. *sigh* It hasn't even been a month yet and I'm already tired of school. I guess having a new, uber-computer doesn't help, either. Played some Burnout Paradise. It runs fine on all settings maxed, but I don't really find it fun anymore. I also played some more Arkham Asylum. Got a bunch of Riddler challenges. I also got a 39 hit combo in a Challenge Room. THERE IS AN ACHIEVEMENT FOR GETTING A 40 HIT COMBO. Stupid counter not w
So when I recently got Windows Vista, I got a code to get Windows 7 free. Today I ordered my free Win7 online. It's estimated ship date? DECEMBER FOURTH. |-|\/|
I solved all 240 Riddler Challenges in Arkham Asylum. By myself, with no help at all. Only at 88% completion though. I still have to get all three achievement/challenge/bonus/whatever-they're-called bats on each challenge room. |-|\/|
I'm so excited! But I'm worried that it'll end up being like the original: blah. I really hope it doesn't, but there just doesn't seem to be enough new stuff to make the game a lot better... I guess I'll find out tomorrow, won't I? I kinda don't want to go to school so I can play. Then again, I never want to go to school anymore. :/ I feel as though there should some concluding sentence here but I can't think of one. Oh well. |-|\/|
Far Cry 2 had one. it wuz dum!!1 However, I loved the game. I love how they handled the gunplay. I wish more FPS games would use a gun system similar to FC2's. Uh... not much else to say. It was a great game and I'd recommend it to any FPS fans. Sooooo...now what? Back to TF2 maybe?
^click for huge image I'm so excited for Brink. (My desktop image is from some concept art.) Essentially, it's an FPS/RPG, a la Fallout 3 and Borderlands, with free running aspects, a la Mirror's Edge and Assassin's Creed. It also features a nice, stylized art style and online co-op with up to 8 people. (here's the full image of the concept art for anyone who's interested) man oh man I can't wait
