Borderlands [PC]:
Reached Level 42 in the Underdome, of all places. Finished a Challenge worth 20,000 XP in Hell-Burbia. Unfortunately, one of the Waves had the low-gravity mutator and skags. You know how monsters infight ala DOOM in the Underdome, and how skags have leap attacks?

Well, a skag lept out of the damn map, so I couldn't progress. Eff emm elle.

At least it gave me a chance to explore/get a good look at the map in low gravity.

Me and a friend of mine were doing one of the Larger challenges, and one of the enemies, while clearly still on the compass, was nowhere to be seen. Same situation.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim:
BEA--no, we've been over this. It doesn't end that easily. Completed the main story. Kind of unsatisfying, actually, but then Oblivion was the same way. Don't get me wrong, the Climax of both games were great, but the aftermath just kind of fizzles. "Yeah! I just saved the freaking world like a boss!" "Yep, great job. Well, see you around."

In any case, now I have unlimited access to Odahviing, my own personal dragon. Who is invincible, can't hurt friendlies, won't be attacked by friendlies for any reason, and will not leave until all enemies present are dead. The ONLY drawback is that he can only be used outdoors.

I decided to continue with the Civil War storyline, since I only did a few missions. (Imperial side; if I didn't ditch the Empire after the Oblivion Crisis, I'm not going to now) First thing I had to do: The Battle of Whiterun, Empire vs. Stormcloaks. I decided, just for giggles, that that would be Odahviing's debut for the good guys. Screw being a trump card, he's my signature weapon now.

Metroid Prime [GameCube]:
Went back to Norfa-- Magmoor with the Wave Beam, got another Energy Tank courtesy of that "power up these three coloured doors" room," went back to the Overworld. Detected some kind of meteorological fluctuation. Saved at the gunship; time to investigate.

I got to a dungeon and killed a bunch of monsters so far...and got my Mass Effect armor. The game would be a lot of fun, if I didn't have a crap load of other stuff to do. Can't wait until the weekend...

Have any of you played fan games? Because I've been playing a very special one, an 8-bit conversion of Mega Man 7:

Rockman 7 Famicom (PC)
Because I've already played with the original (kinda), this one went fast. The Wily stages aren't too tricky this time around, though I had real trouble with Bass & Treble. Right now, I'm in a lot of trouble. Not because of Wily Machine no. 7, but its Wily Capsule! Inafune wasn't kidding with "making this really hard".
Top 5 Priorities: 1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha 2) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor 3) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow) 4) BW Neo D-35 Magmatron 5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also in the market for an Arms Micron Firebolt and Pinpointer.

Motto: "May God have mercy on my enemies, because I sure as hell won't."
Star Wars: The Old Republic:
Finished Balmorra for the Republic, got my own jerk-ass sniper Twi'lek (Voiced by Troy Baker!) for it. Next up: Quesh. Unrelated, but my Consular's fling with the scientist was short; his AI girlfriend found out and started electrifying his bed at random intervals until he agreed to break it off. That was fun.

Meanwhile, my Inquisitor now has her very own cult. They are currently collecting money so that she can get solid gold robes. I am so happy I didn't make that up; she just said "Bring me presents! I want to wear solid gold robes." Then, bam, everyone was dead-set on getting those robes. Mostly because she had just blown up a sizable portion of Nar Shaddaa and then killed a ton of people with Force Lightning just to prove a point. Seriously, Sith Lords are fun.

Knocking out more side quests. Finished clearing out Northwatch keep. pretty sure this won't come back to bite me. Coincidentally, got attacked by a disciple of Boethiah. He's dead but I've got another quest to play with.
In Markarth, went exploring in the Dwemer ruins. The Falmer didn't like that, but I turned on all the Dwemer robots and left them to figure things out. :twisted:

Oh, and in response to the comment about Sam Guinevere, completed said mission. what a night that was. :mrgreen:

Still running side quests. Traveled to Volskygg, took down Volsung and found a dragon shout. Have run pretty much every mission in Markarth so headed north. Found Dragon Bridge and then moved on to Solitude. Acted as walking advertisement for a clothing shop, witnessed an execution,and got missions in the area. Went to a cave and found a group of necromancers performing a forbidden ritual. Killed them and interrupted the ritual.
Was approached by an Argonian to cause a shipwreck by taking out a lighthouse. Sounds fun. :twised:

Decided to quit doddling and preordered Xenoblade Chronicles today. It comes out the day after my birthday, so that's nice. Nicer than the fact that I have a big-ass paper due on my birthday, anyway.

No More Heroes [Wiiiiiiiiiiiiii]:
>Travis gears up for battle
>puts on animu t-shirt
>lovingly caresses weeaboo poster
>breaks fourth and says, complete with subtitles, "MOE~"
I laughed so damn hard. It's little touches like this that make this game so, SO good. And yes, I did buy the system specifically for this title. Suda 51 is my homeboy. This is, without a doubt, the greatest Star Wars game of this whole damn generation.

Right, progress. Just got booted out of Sylvia's limo. Time to go do some odd jobs to earn me some pound-dollars. Gotta make dem quickbucks.
