I missed the Weekend Gaming post for last week, which is unfortunate since hopefully most people had a nice long 3-day weekend. So what’s on tap for gaming for everyone this weekend?
After I finished Fallout 3 a few weeks ago, I decided to hit the backlog of games I’ve had piling up for some time now. I’ve been touring the 2007 greatest hits, finally finishing Bioshock and then starting Mass Effect over from the beginning.
It turns out that I stopped playing Bioshock about 30 minutes from the end, so that one was easily to cross of the list. What was surprising to me was how easily I remembered the controls. The ending didn’t make as much sense as I hoped it would, as I was two years removed from the story. I still enjoyed that game thoroughly. I started Mass Effect over from the beginning because I forgot everything about that game. I’m about ten hours in and really enjoying it. I just wish there weren’t so many friggin elevators.
So I’ll be spending my time on Mass Effect this weekend, with a little Fight Night Round 4 sprinkled in. Oh, and there’s a little football game tomorrow evening. If you’re a college football fan, you probably heard mention of it.
What about you?
The Beatles Rockband (Don’t ask–even after I said I wasn’t getting it)
Batman: Arkham Asylum. (Those challenges just keep extending the life of this game)
Splosion Man (I think I can finish this.)
Shadow Complex (Same here.)
Dawn of War II (All this new DLC talk has got me playing it again.)
That might be it.
I rented Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. I finished the Decepticon story in one sitting (or was it two?) and now I’m working on the Autobot story.
Other than that, I’ve got nothing planned.
