Short gaming update

Not much new right now. I am enjoying The Force Unleashed but I got distracted this weekend with Burnout Bikes and the double XP event on PS3 Call of Duty 4.
I really like playing COD4 online but I’m really not that good at it. There are some stages where I can do pretty well, but others I just get my ass handed to me. I don’t think I play it enough to develop real good skills at it. There are just too many games I want to play to stay with it. I’m glad though because I was able to jump up a few levels this weekend. Had a fun time.
Also, I really enjoy Burnout Bikes. These are the best motorcycles I have ever played in a racing game. Just the right mix of arcadey and sim style handling to make them immensely fun. I’ve already completed all the Burning and Midnight Rides for my 100% license. I’ve completed about 45 out of 70 online bike challenges, and now I just need to work on the Road Rules.
I decided to cancel my Force Unleashed reservation at GameStop and get the game at Toys R Us instead once I found out they were giving out $20 gift cards with the purchase. I used the gift card to pick up Disgaea 3 with it. I am looking forward to Mega Man 9 and Wipeout HD this week but I don’t know if I will be able to afford them both this week. We’ll have to wait and see how the money goes.
That’s about it right now. My progress on Condemned 2 and The Simpsons Game has been slow this weekend with Burnout and COD4. I’ll probably play some more Force Unleashed and Condemed 2 this week and hopefully finish them both so I can start on either Mega Man or Wipeout. Oh, and I’m pretty excited now that we can buy PSN gift cards at Blockbuster now! I’m still boycotting Blockbuster but I can’t imagine they make much money on them; at least not directly. And I’d still rather shop there than GameStop.
