Looks like I'll be online shortly after midnight. I may just open the game and smell that cellophane. Mmmmmm...

I have an extra day of vacation I have to use in the next two weeks. Tuesday seems like a very logical choice.

My longtime dream of setting Michael on fire is about to come true online.

Finally got around to BioShock. Beat it this weekend.
It was great. Probably the best game I've played since Twilight Princess.
I loved the Plasmids and the Big Daddy battles. However, I found the ending too easy. I took out Fontaine w/ full life, and tons of refills, and didn't use any plasmids besides Decoy.
Still, overall, it was incredibly awesome.

Anyone else playing Gears 3? I'm having a blast playing it.

Barely scratched the surface and it just keeps getting better.

People, setting Michael on fire in GOW3 is worth the price alone. Last night I had bullets whizzing all around and heard, "Let's keep it friendly" over my headset. And I turned just in time to see his character shooting the outline of a smiley face into a corpse on the ground.

1 Week to Forza 4!

I finally got to try the demo this morning before work, with all the assists off and sim steering it feels great. Can't wait to hook the wheel up later this week and give it a go.
