For those reading....

You may or may not have noticed my lack of GSAU activity in the last...so many months. In short, I've just been busy and a few other things since I stopped posting.

I guess the main thing that substantially limited the amount of free time I could dispose of on GSAU forums was that during my Uni holidays (when I would traditionally become a lazy, do nothing, game-playing, forum posting, lazy, do nothing drain on the economy) I instead, a much to my disappointment, did rather well at a job interview and worked full time for about 4 months at my local DSE store. Surprisingly, I actually quite enjoyed it. Well, I enjoyed the constant flow of money which was more than enough for me since I live at home. I didn't enjoy some of the less informed questions that sometimes got asked though. Better not go any further than that since it seems nowadays anything you write on the world wide webs can be used against you unfortunately.

And then Uni started again so that's kept me busy, but at least I have a bit more time off.

Gaming wise I've just been playing through GTA4 again. Got KZ2 as well, but was pretty disappointed with it. It looks amazing, but the aiming is just horrible and laggy. I invested in a new laptop as well which is nice as it allows me to play some PC games again, which I've missed since my old PC became underpowered and thus redundant. It's also amazing when hooked up to my Full HD TV. So on that I bought Mass Effect, but am finding it a bit slow to start off with. I also got Empire: Total War which I'm really enjoying now that they've ironed out most of the bugs and glitches.

So what's changed around here? Anything I should know before I consider posting more regularly again? Mutinies? Rebellions? More of those awesome competitions? You get the idea. Let me know!

Great to have you back buddy! Uh... anything you should know... not really. Just be cool!

It took me 5 hours the first I played Mass Effect to reach the first major plot point, but then it picks up from there. It depends how much you want to explore.

Turbo: Thanks mate, nice to be back. I don't know if being back is necessarily a good thing, or whether it means I'm back to having nothing better to do. Nice that I seem to still recognise most posters on the forums though.

bacchus: I've played about 6 hours, and was exploring quite a lot when I first went to the Citadel, but then I got bored and just started playing. Story seems like it has potential, but it hasn't drawn me in totally yet.

leo: what I mean is, if you're standing still and then you push the right analogue stick all the way to one side, your character will start to slowly turn in that direction. After about half a second, it sudden;y starts moving a lot faster. This, along with the overuse of motion blur, makes aiming very difficult for me.

Nice to see you're back. Pity you didn't like Killzone, but the aiming does take some getting used to. I personally liked the control setup (you actually felt as if you were moving a person around, as opposed to the COD's and Halo's), but each to there own. It seems a bit less prevalent in the multiplayer, though.
