EDIT: I totally had the Giant Bomb banner thing here, but for some odd reason the image is now broken. WTF
Hello Bombers and welcome to another Gaming Update, fueled by Coke (since Mountain Dew is narsty). I'm gonna talk about games and..... other stuff!
What I've Been Playing
What I weekend I had. First of all, I finished Bioshock 2 at twelve in the morning Saturday night (or would that be Sunday morning?) Rather than tell you what I think about the game here, you should go read my review. TL;DR version: It's a good game. On Sunday, Toys 'R' Us was having a sale where you could get Assassin's Creed 2 for $39.99. Originally I was going to get that since my mom was being nice and was willing to spend $40 on my that day for no reason. However, since my brother owns the game and I figured he's probably send it to me once he's done, I went and got some Microsoft Point cards, 2 to be exact (both 1600). I spent some of those points on...... Bioshock! This really isn't surprising, since I knew I was going to end up buying the game again. I just missed it so much, and I've been playing that for a good portion of the past few days. I think I may actually like the first game better than the second. The controls feel tighter, and the shooting is much better than the sequel in my mind.
What I Want To Play
The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom totally comes out tomorrow, and I'm totally going to buy it. Maybe even review it? We'll see how it goes.
