Whats up Gamespot, long time no see? Been swamped with school, and just got a break today, so I though I would update you guys with what I have been playing for this month. 
To start it off, Geometry Wars 2 has been probably the most played. Its the type of game that I will just play for five minutes, and then turn off the console. Its also really a great game to play while listening to a podcast. My faviorte mode has to be Pacifism, where I have 211,455,735 points in it. It is such an awesome game mode, that is just loads of fun to play. I am second on all my leaderboards, behind Caddy in everyone...
I also have been playing alot of Burnout Paradise. Since it seems that the Sunday Drive gang rather playing Rockstar Table Tennis, or Lego Batman(
) I have been playing it myself, and trying to get the acheivments out of it. I have only two burning routes left in it, and they are for cars I have not yet unlocked. I also have around 38 more races in total to do before I get my Elite Lisence. Collectible wise in the game, I only have 7-8 to go for either Super Jumps, BillBoards, or Smashes. I hope to finish this game up soon, so I can get my online acheivments then.
I also just got Civilization Revolution in the mail a couple days ago, and have been loving it. Its the type of turn based strategy game that is just tough enough to give you a challenge, but not so tough that it makes you angry. I have always loved Turn Based Strategy Games like Advance Wars, or Final Fantasy Tactics, but they always just get very hard at the end, and I never enjoy playing them after a couple weeks time. I dought that this will happen with this game.
Anyways, I got some French and Geometry Homework that needs doing. Anyone want to help me study for my Quaderlaterals Quiz tommorow?
Note: Check out the Trigames.net podcast, have always enjoyed them, and a intresting take on whats going on in gaming. Plus, they are very funny. Especially that Tony aka Guy who tortures himself with Phantasy Star 2 or Patapon.
I just finally decided to make the plunge, and go get Rock Band 2, well, when it comes out
It seems that I have always trying to decide whether to get the first Rock Band with the hardware issues that I have heard about, the the ok song list. But after hearing from the Sunday Drive Guys, I decided to research Rock Band 2 a little bit, and was very happily suprised to see a couple new things. First, they are creating better hardware for the sequel, something that really makes me warm to my heart, seeing that I don't have to worry about another gaming thing breaking, aside from my 360. Secondly, the setlist, is just amazing. I mean a completly diverse set of songs, that absolutly rock. One of my faviortes, Living on a Prayer, from Bon Jovi is also included in it, and I can not wait to sing the hell out of that song. And last but not least, I realized I can just get Guitar Hero World Tour, the game, without buying the crappy Guitar Hero hardware, with the gimmicky symbals.
So with this big purchase coming up, I will have less money to spend on other games coming up. Meaning, that I will probably have to cut down on my anticapted games list. Anyway, please tell if I am making a good purchase on Rock Band 2 in the comments box, seeing that I got a resounding two comments in my last blog. Good effort guys
Just posted my Geometry Wars 2: Retro Revolved 2 Review here on Gamespot, and think its one of my better reviews. If you guys can check it out, and give me feedback, constructive critiscm is always helpful, that would be much appreciated. As always, the review is at the bottom of the blog.
For some reason, my review was not showing up at that bottom of the page, so I just posted a link for your guys.
