It was free...
Normally it would have gone for like, $10.00 I think, cause it was turbo. It sucked major ass though. You know that ps3 controller transformer? It was almost as tiny as he was! I'm not exagerating either!

Damn, that explains why it was free!

Well, I didnt have a controller at the time so...
some controllers better than none!
Around the first i'll get an official sixaxis PS3 controller, then I'll be playing back in time with my usual schedule.
Theres a pun in there...

I got a 360 controller on loan from a friend of mine. Microsoft was really thinking ahead with this one, since it can be used as a PC gamepad, and a good number of games will switch over to their 360 interface to match it. I have no idea why the Dual Shock 3 and SIXAXIS can't do this, though.

Fallout: New Vegas:
Completed Old World Blues, the only DLC to bring me to tears from laughing so hard. (Stop the evil Dr. Mobius and his army of Robo-Scorpions from conquering all of science) The downside is that the enemies are hella tough. it said it was for level 15 and up but at level 40 I was struggling. I went in with a rather large compliment of 80-something stimpacks, and I had exhausted that by the half-way point. I even had to resort to god mode at one point! I am not happy about that.

The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
Finishing up my current quests. Led the companions on a quest to cure a dead friend.... which seems pretty random. Still, a dungeon crawl, a wicked axe, and a ghost wolf battle later, he's free and I got a promotion. Neat.
Finished Azura's quest. Retrieved the Star, entered it, booted out an evil soul, and got to keep the star for my trouble. Decided to take Azura's advice and left the gem as a white star, which means it's going into a trophy room as it's useless for my purposes now.
Ran 2 random dungeons and obtained 2 more shouts.

Sonic Colors
Cleared Planet Wisp. Only a level and a boss left on the aquarium world.

Gears of War [PC]:
Finished the game, and by extension, its two sequels. Without exaggeration one of the most disappointing games I've played and a huge leap backwards for Epic. In many ways, this game embodies so much of what's wrong about this gaming generation. Uninstallation felt great.

Thanks to the Aimon XB Elite, I can now play shootan gaems on my 360. Having wrapped up my playthroughs of Halo 1 and 2 a while back, I jumped into ODST.

Halo 3: ODST [360]:
Got to the part where you can choose between four missions. I finished the one in the park and the one at the police HQ. Working on the train station one now.

Red Dead Redemption [360]:
Drove Ms. MacFarlane to Armadillo and took out some clowns with the Sheriff. Still working on finding a good control scheme for my Aimon for use with RDR.

Assassin's Creed II:
BEATEN! A few weeks ago. Forgot to mention it.

Beat the Pope is a fistfight; I had no idea the Pope is trained to be proficient in hand-to-hand combat. Got a message from Minerva...well, Desmond did, Ezio was just confused as hell. Well, the day is saved, so there's that.

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood:
It begins like an epilogue. The villa is turned into a straight-up fortress, Ezio goes on about "Well, we're done here, yeah? Sure, the world is going to blow up, but that's in 500 years, I'm sure this Desmond guy will figure something out, the Gods themselves seem to be on his team." Then he goes and has a sex-bath with Catarina.

Then the Borgias show up and blow the goddamn villa up. Well...damn.

Ezio escaped, obviously, but it went off on sort of a cliffhanger ending. Took a moment to play as Desmond for a while, which is cool, I really wanted to play as him. Siphoned power from the villa to the Sanctuary, and the Animus 2.1. Back in Rome, kicking ass, taking names, and telling Machiavelli what a jerk he is.

It doesn't help his name is a synonym for "Manipulative douchebag" these days.

Batman Arkham City:

Got it yesterday, finished it about an hour ago. Such a short ass story, while the side missions aren't interesting enough to make me want to do them.

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
Made some new friends, all of whom were old friends. Met up with La Volpe and Thieves Guild up and running, while helping get Bartolomeo and his mercenaries get out of a jam. Also, Ezio's sister Claudia is running a brothel, which happens to be a front for hooker-spies. Ezio didn't want his sister to do that, either because he didn't want her involved in the war, or because the idea of your sister running a whorehouse is enough to make any man throw up in his mouth a little bit.

But enough about single player, I've been doing some MP as well. It's hard to tell if I hate it or not. I scream and swear and rage when I play it...but I can't stop playing it. Doing good feels great, losing is maddening. It doesn't help that half the people run around as fast as they can. (Which makes them hard to catch, but at the same time means they don't get nearly as many points for a kill; I've come in second behind people with twice as many kills as me, as well as ahead of people with more kills than that) It's so annoying...but the Hellequin's ass is sooooooo fine.

Which brings me to my next point: If Ubisoft really does hate PC gaming, they got a weird way of showing it. Achievement point values, like Microsoft uses, actually have a purpose; you can spend them on various rewards. Usually something small, maybe a new outfit or an ammo bonus, sometimes even an unlockable character. (Such as the Hellequin!) They give you something other then a little picture, a golf clap, and a half an inch on your e-peen, they give you actual rewards, it's the way achievements should be done.

EDIT: Wow, that was way longer than it should have been. tl;dr version: Multiplayer is fun and annoying, Hellequin is sex-flavored hotness, Uplay actually does achievements right.

The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
Ran some minor quests for the companions but didn't get the option to cure them. So instead took Aela on a hunt for a totem. After that, decided it was time to hit Riften. Reached riften and didn't want to bother with the guards at the door so headed around back to find a skooma-addicted argonian. Gave her a little health potion to ease her pain.

Sonic Colors
Cleared the Aquarium planet. 2 stages into the Asteroid coaster.
