Uninteresting $#!% #16

Howdy folks. I'll be frank with you - haven't felt much like writing. With that said, I've also been playing a lot of games. Here, in short form, is a quick rundown of those games.
Dead Space Ignition
I had 400 free points from the Summer of Arcade promotion. Those points bought this game. It was worth it for that price tag of "free". The motion comic stuff is pretty bad, the voice acting is decent enough, and generally, all the different "choose your own adventure" paths don't have very interesting stories. The ending is pretty cool, but there's no real explanation how it gets to that. If you can get this for free...like when you pre-order Dead Space 2...then go ahead and grab it. It's not a tough S-rank either.Front Mission Evolved
The single player? Meh to bleck, only saved in any way by Nolan North and relatively easy achievements. The multiplayer? When you can actually find people online, and you've gained some ranks to get some more powerful equipment? Pretty damn fun!Super Meat Boy
Fuck you, Team Meat. Fuck you right up your stupid asses. My fingers hurt, you assholes. What kind of sadistic fucking people raised you? Huh? What kind of fucked-up nightmares do you have at night that you feel you need to unleash some of the sweetest and most excruciating goddamn punishment possible onto the world after they've been softened up for so long with games that don't understand the meaning of the word "difficulty"? Fuck you times infinity!!! Also, if you haven't bought Super Meat Boy, then you are missing out on what Alex Navarro himself stated best: Super Meat Boy is a game that will build character and make you a man.Fallout New Vegas
Hey, remember Fallout 3? Take that and put it in a different place, then add a shitload of great additions, and you get New Vegas. Yeah, it's buggy as fuck. You still need to play it. The story is mind-blowingly well told, the side quests are endless in number and scope, and all the improvements to mechanics are what Fallout 3 honestly needed more of. Moreover, try kicking that fucker on Hardcore mode. You want a tough-as-nails RPG? There you go. Buy it and enjoy.Costume Quest
Bought it. Beat it and S-ranked it in one sitting. Fun game. Combat got repetitive after a while, and I rarely went outside of the robot/Statue/knight combo, but it's got a lot of charm and good humor to it. Other than that, you'll finish the game, delete it from your hard drive, and then you might question spending $15 on it...but then you'll realize that Tim Schafer deserves your money, so whatever.NBA 2K11
Fuck, that game is good! I don't know what I like more: playing it or watching it. They really nailed the animations on this game, and it feels really tight on the control scheme now. I can understand why EA nixed NBA Elite 11 after looking at this behemoth.Dead Space
In order to prepare myself for the release of Dead Space 2 in January, I've decided I'm finally going to get the last achievement in that game. I don't know if you guys know this, but Dead Space on Impossible difficulty is pretty fucking brutal! It's an off-and-on thing right now because of all the new releases hitting, but regardless, it's going to happen before January hits.________________________________________________
That's it for now, folks. I'm up to my ears in patching right now.
