This week I decided to crack open Dead Space. I bought this game about a year ago and never really took an interest in it. With the second being released last week and seeing all the coverage, videos and reviews on the sequel I decided to give the original a try. I am currently on the 6 chapter and I love it, I am starting to wonder why I never played it all this time. The game did leave me to wonder why are these type of games and movies always set on mining ships. There was Alien and the doom games just to name a couple. Just seems quite strange of a general setting to me. 

I have also been a little ill lately, nothing too serious. My asthma flared up and I was finding it hard to breathe last Tuesday but after going to the docs and getting a stronger inhaler and some steroids things have gotten better. I haven’t been able to go to the gym though which is really annoying me as I like to do at least 3 sessions a week. I am going to try and build that up next week. As for the steroids oh how I hate those pills. 6 a day as soon as I get up. Taking them at 7 am still kept me awake till around 5 am the next morning. They also gave me crippling head aches every so often and I tended to have a shorter leash while on the pill. At times I seemed quite angry over nothing at all. But everything seems to be back to normal now so it’s all good.

That extra time awake did help out over the weekend though as it was double xp weekend on Black Ops. I spent all Friday night a little Saturday (girl friend duties on Saturday) and most of Sunday grinding Black Ops to get to the 2 sweet prestige. I managed to get to level 48 from level 22 which isn’t bad and I suppose in a few days I will blast through the last 2 levels and prestige again. I also played a little of Ilomilo. It’s a quirky little puzzle game, its allot of fun and quite challenging later on. I am now on the 3 chapter of 6 and slowly making my way through the game.
