Monthly Summary - February 2011
By darkfury 1 Comments
Played This Month:
Started off the month the way the last one finished - with my Halo marathon. Finished Halo 2 and Halo 3 within days of each other, as well as Halo 3: ODST. Halo 3 is my favourite having gone through them all again, due to how it handles the story and how special it feels within that universe to see all the events play out. Put Halo Wars in and played a bit but it obviously won't grab me in the same way as the 'real' Halo games.Finished off The Penal Zone which I started in 2010, looking forward to Back To The Future. I'll probably jump back to Sam & Max when Im waiting for a new episode of that. Made some good progress on Stacking, really need to go back and play that more but I've had a fair few distractions later this month keeping me from even turning the console on.
Played some Plants vs Zombies whilst listening to music, bought both Space Invaders IG and Pac Man CE DX in XBL sales, haven't done much with either, a couple of games on each at best. Played some Halo Reach online but I long for the Halo 2 days playing matchmaking with a big group.
Lorena and I made good progress on ilomilo, got a new game called Tales From Space: About a Blob which is good fun until one of us wants to strangle the other for getting them killed or lost off-screen. I'm playing Bad Company to get it out of my backlog and will run through its sequel in March or April. Played and failed some more Hot Pursuit. Played Bulletstorm to the end in 2 sessions - already forgotten about it. Got Test Drive Unlimited 2 but haven't had time to sink into it, its very cheesy and sometimes janky but I like it.
Picked up Dark Void again to get through it and then on Level 7 it hung on the loading screen every time. Checked the disc and found a horrible dent that can't be wiped or buffed out. Not sure if I care enough to get another copy somehow, but guess I'd like to see it through as it wasn't offensively but, just average.
