Game List to Finish…WOW

Wanderlust — Sat, 10 Dec 2011 09:18:33 +0000

So I decided I need to start finishing games since I’m a bit meh about Battlefield 3. Hoping the Karkand pack will bring me back around but just doesn’t seem the same so my list:

PC:

Homefront (Most of the way through)
Crysis 2 (A ways to go)
Duke Nukem Forever (I got bored with the old-school boss fights, even though I am old-school)
Battlefield 3 SP/Co-Op (I may end up doing this on Xbox)

Xbox:

GTA IV, I got most of the way through but need to finally finish it.
L.A. Noir (most of the way through)
Red Dead Redemption (Not sure why I stopped this, loved it, I think Bad Company 2 got in the way)
Arkham City
Dead Space (Cyber Monday Pickup)
Dead Space 2 (another Cyber Monday Pickup)
Re-do MW and MW2 now that the series is ending.

Quite a list, we’ll see how it goes.

Assassin’s Creed: Revelations

I finally got into Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. I’m not that far into it, with a small amount of OCD and ADD I tend to get hooked on the little things like the training but I’m into it far enough to know that I want to get this and start moving early on with MP. I did some time with the first one but I’m primarily a PC gamer and this is very much a console type game, at least for me.

So until GTA V comes along, this will probably be my Xbox mainstay.

Pre-order at Amazon, release date of 11/15/2011!

Looks great! While IV was immersible and expansive, I hope the story moves along more in this one.

Logitech G930 Wireless Headset

I’m testing these out right now. We’ll see how they work out. 10 hours, programmable buttons, volume roller, flip up mic to mute. Lots of nice features. Still need to read more on the F540 as well. You can pick them up at Amazon for $109.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2: Vietnam WTF

Wanderlust — Fri, 31 Dec 2010 09:07:54 +0000

This was my most anticipated game of the year and has turned into the worst game of the year. I personally thought this would do circles around Black Ops and it’s fallen flat on it’s face. Even Black Ops multiplayer is 100x better than this game. Apparently the developers were still in the Medal of Honor mode when they developed this add-on. It feels like CoD/MoH meets vehicles… I know MoH has limited vehicles but even Operation Hastings, which was released tonight is a pile of shit, plain and simple. I don’t know what they were thinking other than to compete with Call of Duty and WHY? They’re distinctively different games and people play them for those reasons.

They changed the dynamics where rather than defending a base that you own, you’re attacking a base you own, in most situations. You don’t spawn at the defensive point as you do in BFBC2, you spawn at the base next to it while, generally, the opposing side is humping your objectives by the time you get there. The best one tonight is spawning in Hastings and being killed almost immediately by a helicopter at the spawn base, which again, isn’t the attack point. So basically you can be base rapped and there isn’t a boundary.

I had grown a bit tired of BFBC2, it’s been nearly a year and I’ve put a lot of time in the game so it’s not a surprise to me and this was suppose to be my deliverance but instead of being my most anticipated game of the year, it’s become the biggest disappointment of the year for me.

If you like Call of Duty/Modern Warfare and the retooled Medal of Honor, you should love it, otherwise don’t waste your money and keep playing BFBC2.
