I've been keeping a very close eye on my 360 repair status. They repaired it and sent it out Wednesday and it's already in HODGKINS, IL, which is roughly 3 hours away from where I currently live. If I don't have it by Saturday I will cry.
Anyone using Twitter yet? I put an update on there saying I had put up all of my video game posters. I counted 25 but I'm betting I forgot a few somewhere. The posters actually covered up one wall and so I continued covering the next wall. Half of my room is covered in video game posters! Cool!
I have a love/hate relationship with Resistance 2. The single player campaign was ok. The giant boss battles were a thrill to play through, but the rest oddly continued to try my patience (it's worth noting I have the most patience in the world). I won't lie, I was playing on casual because I was nervous. I died, a lot. Like, a lot a lot. I didn't expect it to be so tough! The new health system works great, but the thing I always seemed to forget was that most of the Chimera guns can shoot through walls/cover. I would always hide behind cover to recharge my health, but continued to get shot through the cover. Cool but annoying.
With Resistance 2 beat and no 360, I've been bored. So bored that I bought Wrath of the Lich King. Ewww gross. I know I know, shh. *Shocker Alert* I'm impressed by this expansion! Northrend has been a complete joy ride so far. Hijacking horses from the Alliance never gets old. What's most impressive is probably the Death Knight. What was shocking to me was some of the quests actually have scripted story elements to them. One of the Death Knight quests had you joining up with an army of ghouls and other Death Knights to battle this human army. It was really something seeing all these ghouls rise up from the ground and rush into battle with us. I swear there were over 100 characters on my screen in that battle. After that battle came lots of talking, with real voices by the NPC's! It was pretty neat seeing this level of NPC interaction with each other and voice acting in an MMO.
I should do a video blog soon. I guess all of this would of made a good one. Oh well, maybe next time.
