Borderlands 2:
'Cause there ain't no rest for the wicked, until we close our eyes for good.

JUST bought it, JUST bought Gaige, JUST starting as her. Played a bit as Maya first, though. This game is the first game, but 1000% more awesome.

If I've never played the first Borderlands before, would it be confusing jumping into the sequel. While I won't be buying the game any time soon (planning on getting Hitman Absolution first), I like to keep a list of potential games to get at a later date.

A little. The first game was pretty light on story, but the second one drops tons of references to it. I would definitely recommend you play them both in order.

Thanks for the heads-up.

The first Borderlands is pretty old, so I'm not sure if I can find it. Which puts me in a quandary. If I bought the sequel and can't find the first game, playing the sequel could confuse the hell out of me. But if I passed on both, I might have trouble finding both when the sequel gets sold out.

Might have to pass on both altogether.

Thanks, anyway.

Was not a fan of Borderlands 1, even though I played it all the way through. Nothing else need be said.

Dragon Age 2
Still trying to build supplies for the Deep roads run. Main story points are that I've encountered both anders and Fenris but haven't run their missions yet. Working on an on-going quest to track a lost mage boy.
Went for variety in my character design. My Warden (locust) was a male City-elf Warrior templar spirit mage. My Hawke (Buggina) is a red-headed Dual-weilding rogue. Let's see where this goes.

FEAR3
GAME.BEATEN!
Finished the game as Point man and earned 'favorite son' status. Ran a mission as Fettel to try it out. Fun, but not worth replaying fully. Moving on.

XenoBlade Chronicles
Still in love with this game. My battle in allahad fortress brought an entire chunk of the Mechonis crashing back to the world below. In the process, I rescued a lost comrade but have become separated from the others. Time to get searching.

New Super Mario Bros
i keep forgetting I have a DS. yeesh.... Played up through world 5. All star coins so far and found the cannon to world 8.

No it isn't, it came out in 2009.

Borderlands 2:
Made it to Sanctuary (A town mentioned repeatedly in the first game, but never shown) to meet up with Roland, only for Roland to drop off the map as soon as I got there. Working with Scooter to make Sanctuary (Actually a mining ship) fly, learned the finer points of elemental weapons from Marcus, and learned about Eridium from Dr. Zed, Tannis, and Crazy Earl. Yeah, the gang's all here.

Where I'm at, it might as well have come out in 1940. The maximum availability of a game here is approximately three weeks max before it becomes sold out. Don't ask me why; it's just the way it is.

I don't like buying online either, as it's usually a hassle to get a defective copy exchanged, having to mail it back and all that.

Steam is digital distribution, they can't give you a defective copy because there is no copy, it's all downloaded right to your computer. And if you don't want to play on PC, PSN also has the game for download. (As well as the GOTY version) Xbox Live Marketplace...maybe? I don't know.

Borderlands 2:
You know how in the first game, it was all you in a fight? And NPCs would stand on the sidelines? Yeah, met the Firehawk, oops, I mean freakin' Lilith and teamed up with her to fight off a wave of bandits. And yes, teamed up, as in, she actually fought them as well. Apparently she's got her Phoenix perk, which is pimp. Found out, no, she hadn't kidnapped Roland, but she's gonna help us get her boyfriend back...yeahbutwhaaaaaaa?

Rayman Origins

the old memories of Rayman, this is the best 2-D platformer i played since Sonic Generation's Classic Sonic Stages, and the only Rayman game i played since the ol'Playstation 2 games...finished 2 levels, rescued some fairy that gifted me the power to punch stuff (?)
