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.

Found a place to farm A-S Rank R&D Guys. Whipping customs left and right!

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.

Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning:
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".

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.

The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
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.

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

The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
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]:

>puts on animu t-shirt

>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.

Buying a Wii specifically for No More Heroes? Yeah, that makes sense.

Star Trek Online:
Went back in time, and met Bones and Scotty. Hit level 17, now I'm trying to stop a series of Klingon genetic experiments, trying to make some kind of Klingon KHAAAAAAN! KHAAAAAAN!

Thrift stores FTW and/or it fell off the back of a truck.

And there may or may not be an unconscious sales clerk tied up in alley near where said truck was last reported seen.

In that case, brofist for the assist.

Star Trek Online:
Finished the Klingon story arc, now moving on to the Romulans. Hit the rank of commander and got a new ship; it's a heavy cruiser, but I went all-out with the customizations, and it only barely resembles a ship with the typical Federation aesthetic. I named it the USS Vode An because I am a smart ass.

Man, that is some good trolling.

Dragon Age Origins: Just finishing up the last of the trio of storyline quests in Awakening.

Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer: Just leveling up my Asari Adept, so bloody fun

Assassin's Creed Revelations: Trying to do all of the non-storyline achievements and stuff. Done Sequence 4 Story and Desmond Sequence 2. Sofia =3

Halo CE Anniversary: Playing on Normal and two levels left.... for the life of me, this just feels way harder than the original and it's agonizing.

Gears of War [PC]:
Made my way through the rain, into the factory, rode the mine carts (nowhere near as fun as Donkey Kong Country), went down some giant-ass elevator, and now I'm in caves, or a mine, or something. I like how there are conveniently-placed people-sized slabs of rock just sitting around...

Can't wait to finish this crap and uninstall it.

Can't wait to finish this crap and uninstall it.

If it makes you feel better, the third game was written by Karen Traviss. It probably doesn't, though.

It doesn't, but I appreciate your effort, man.

Amazing how little you can get done in 2 hours. Cleared out a vampire nest with the goal of contracting Vampirism. It worked, but I cured it accidentally when I cured myself of a different disease. Whoops.
Did some major traveling just trying to get some malachite now that I can forge Glass armor. But it was worth it. I now have a full set of Glass armor, all pieces improved and enchanted. Whee!
Side-quest wise, retrieved a lost helmet from an underground forest guarded by Spriggans.
Random exploring found me a talking Goddess statue right next to a word wall. New shout sounded awesome until I realized it didn't work on enchanted or bound weapons (which is my entire arsenal). Grr.... Also working to build up my lately-ignored destruction magic skills.

Mass Effect 3 (Multiplayer):
So, I played the ME3 demo litteraly all day yesterday, got a level 17 Quarian Engineer, a level 12 Sentinel, level 5 Soldier, level 4 Vanguard, and other classes I don't remember, got ranked 75o something in the world and got inducted into an elite squad of players. All in one day of playing. Those 29 times I beat ME2 have definately paid off.

Posting this from my laptop. Got my web browser open so I can use images of characters as reference for making Mii characters. Currently working on a Niko Bellic from GTA IV so I can go BOWLING, COUSIN

The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
Took my nifty glass armor on a road trip. Cleared out a bandit's cave, a vampire's nest, another bandits cave (this time in a trapped shipping dock) and got paid nicely for it all. Also found an awesome Ebony mace, pre-enchanted with my favorite drain magicka power.
While travelling, decided to explore a ship. Turned out to be a Pirate ship so I slaughtered them all in the name of experience.
Got the second part of the gaulder Legend amulet and also found a word wall teaching me Frost Breath.
Turned off the solitude lighthouse. Now time to go explore the ship I just caused to wreck.

On a side note, when did this smiley show up?

When it was stolen from another site, or something? I don't know.

NBA Street V3 [GameCube]:
My brother and I are making teams of Street Fighter characters for fun. It's not so bad so far. Unfortunately this game isn't enough like NBA Jam, though. Still having fun with it.

Drift City [PC]:
The Drift, it be a-changin'. The car system's all different now. There are no longer level requirements on any of the cars, but as a consequence, nearly every vehicle in the game is now a useless Class 1 car (Class 1 having the lowest stats of any vehicle class). To improve a car's Class, you have to pay real-life money. Eff this ess.

One of the few non-unlockable cars that still keeps its Class is the Ferrari Enzo knockoff. This used to be restricted to Level 81+ characters and cost a million in-game dollars. Now it's only 100,000 and available to any Level player who can afford it. Since I got 300,000 during that New Year's event, I bought myself one and one for a friend.

Y'see, our guild is called "Troll," our guild icon is the trollface with a 9-point "U MAD?" under it, and jokingly antagonizing other players for humour is what we do. Being passed by (and losing to) a hot pink Ferrari driven by a character under Level 20 when it used to only be accessible to over 81s who had worked hard enough to earn it has to suck. And seeing the guild icon just rubs it in.

Story-wise, we just finished the first Station of the second city. The Enzo OM NOMS gas like there's no tomorrow. It costs less to buy a new one than to fill the tank up, so I'm not putting a drop into it. When it's dry, I'll sell it and get another set of wheels. In hot pink for trolling, of course.
