Beat that fat pig Melvin and got the steel smelter for me to use. I just wish I could get the arcanium smelter sooner.

Was bored at work, realized I still had saved Crimsonland content on my laptop.

Far Cry 2
After running some minor side missions for the weapons dealer, accepted a mission to tag a gold supply brought in by the former king of the now-fallen government. Before starting that mission, received a bonus mission from my buddy. Turns out the king's son is living high as an exile and will pay for me to assassinate his father, giving him hereditary rights to the family's swiss accounts. Ironically, right before killing the king, he threatened me saying his son would avenge him. Man, if only I could have told him the truth before slicing him to bits.
Continuing the original mission, tagged the gold supply and defended it and my buddy until mission complete.
Ran out of medicine so had to run another "humanitarian" job for the underground to get some more pills. Delivered traficking papers to the underground in exchange for pills

Sweet Zombie Jesus, Shinobu went down fast. I got in a few Dark Steps, and some wrestling moves, and she was gone in just short of a minute and a half.

Far Cry 2
This time, took on a mission for the APR. My job was to assassinate a corrupt police chief... not because he was corrupt but because he was going to blab about the APR. Figures...
Anyway, got a tip from my buddy Flora that I could avoid having to track down a motorcade by scaring him back to the police station. To this end, found his brother, threatened him into giving me his ledgers which contained a list of all bribes the police chief had taken. Upon finding that someone had the paperwork, the chief ran back to the police station to hide... where I was waiting. Mission completed. While this distraction was going on, Flora got trapped after attacking the original motorcade for supplies. I quickly rescued her, killed her attackers, and healed her. I've yet to lose a buddy.

Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness: Episode Two:
Replaying this on Insane Mode, where all the enemies have higher stats, and there's no indication of when to block.

It's great. It's like adding a bit of spice to an already tasty food.

Just killed Dr. Wolfington, Now I've got to go force Charles to shut his pie hole. (Bonus points to anyone who catches that reference)

EDIT:
BEATEN! With an 89% completion rate, I might add. I also got the bonus outfits, including a Murderous Safari outfit, the Mime Cult Garb, and, best of them all, the suit of the Cardboard Tube Samurai.

Yay me!

ff8-still going slowwwwwww. But i'm on disc 2 now

ff12-looking for Dr. Cid...badly need to level characters

Guitar hero World Tour-Don't really know how to report progress on this...so i'm playing it.

No More Heroes:
Well, all that New Game + Easiness vanished without a trace, some time between Holly Summers and Speed Buster. Even though I've almost got Dark Stepping down, that didn't stop a lot of bosses from being a total pain in the ass. (And I'm looking in bad Girl's direction on this specifically) Jeane was less of a pain, although Dark Stepping didn't work on her as well.

I really want to try Dark Stepping on Death Metal, though, and see how fast I can take him down with that.

Killed the doctor in Arce and completed all the save citizen and view points available to me at the time.

Got my green minions back, off to get my blue ones before heading for the Durium smelter.

Manhunt PS2
Just thought I'd try and get that finished, managed to get a few annoying levels out of the way. Nearly at the end, then I can buy Manhunt 2

Far Cry 2
Looks like I've cleared all the currently available arms dealer missions. Took on a buddy mission instead. Today's mission was to take out a pair of drug dealers. Luckily I just invested in a Dragonuv (sniper rifle). This was the perfect opportunity to try it out. Of course, when a target decides to hide or fight back, that's where plan B comes in.

*holds up rocket launcher*

Say hello to Plan B. There's no such thing as overkill.

Far Cry 2
More minor missions, primarily assassinations or stopping arms shipments. I'm finding my Dragonuv rifle to be very useful as long as I keep a rapid-fire cannon as my special weapon.
Ran one full mission for the APR. This one involved destroying a fuel and supply run that would have given hope to the citizens. This must not be allowed! The APR prefered the country poor so they could take credit for any good that was done, leaving the UFLL looking foolish. To this end, it was my job to destroy the shipment.
My buddy gave me a better deal, however. I hit the railyard and blew up the APR's own supply (secretly) then met my buddy as she derailed the shipment. We managed to weaken both sides with this one.
Oddly, despite my buddy calling me for support, she managed to complete my mission for me before I could even find her. Go figure.

Unreal tournament III
After having bought the game a while ago, finally got around to installing it. Played through the first 3 "missions" just to verify how well it runs.

As a hardcore oldschool UT1 fan, I loved the hell outta UT3. And the Blade Runner themed urban levels blew me away too, since Blade Runner's one of my favourite movies, books, and video games.

If you're having an issue with the 'focus,' you can change that in the options. I think by default there's something that set to half of the screen (some kind of rendering, or something). Increasing the value makes the image appear much more clearly.

Have fun and frag on, soldier.

Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards:
I never got a good chance to play this. My cousin had it, though...my cousin had all the best stuff.

Just cleared Pop Star, Showed that goddamn Recurring Tree Boss Whose Name Escapes Me At The Moment who is boss around here. Now onto Rock Star. Is it a planet with rough terrain, or is it a guy who plays guitar on stage for two hours, then goes into his dressing room with two floozies and a rock of cocaine the size of your head? Time will tell.

GAME OVER! Well that final fight was pretty fun and so was the game. The only complaint I have is that you can't skip the cutscenes and you have to go through the dialouge each time you fail a mission.

Overlord Xbox 360
Bypassed William and got the gold from the mine and went to where the dwarves were making a new temple. Both areas are done with.

Up to Neo Star. The boss is hella painful.

Fable II

Beat Lucien and took the noble ending, bought his mansion and ended up collecting all 50 of the gargoyles.

Taking a break to let rent build up, meanwhile been playing...


Fallout 3

This game is amazing, and completely disturbing at the same time. It has a completely dark sense of humor and a sick irony about it. Played it for maybe about 10-15 hours so far doing what quests I came across.

For anyone going to play it: Melee(Strength) is useless, Agi is your best bet.

Upon entering the deserted and desolate wasteland town of Springvale in Washington D.C., there is nothing but rubble, charred corpses, as I'm taking in this scenery of nuclear holocaust, I start hearing "America the Beautiful" playing.

It's that dark humor and a sense of irony about the game.

The game, like I said kind of disturbs me deep down. With other apocalypse games, it's zombies, demons, aliens. But this, it's because of something that could actually happen.

REmake on Gamecube

Back in the Mansion after getting past Plant 42 on normal.

By the way, anyone happen to know if I can unlock the special handgun and rocket launcher by getting the worst ending? Im aiming for 3 hours completion

Manhunt

Finally finished it yesterday, now am gonna get Manhunt 2. Now I'm gonna start Indiana Jones & the emperors tomb.

[1337W422102]

Now I'm gonna start Indiana Jones & the emperors tomb.

A solid adventuring platformer. Feels excessively 'consoled' in the PC release, though.
