Better Late Then Never

Good morning all, I've decided to do the blog posts first since I've got the day off and I'm planning for a huge gaming session with several movies in between. Hope you all had a good week and Friday launch day was a good day for you, buy anything nice? give a shout on the comments would love to hear.

Once again for me I had a huge spending spree and now a proud of owner of a Aqua Blue 3DS, also did pick up Samurai Warriors Chronicles for it as well (was the only game on the line up I liked). Had a mini go on Friday and that was it so need to get some time in today on it, bet you wondering why I've not played on it much. It's called Lego Star Wars the Clone Wars, not been able to stop playing it. Loving every minute of the game and really impressed with how its turned out, will do a review later once I've finished it. I've also got Crysis 2 sitting wrapped on my desk waiting to be played, my friends on twitter are raving on about how good it is so I'm quite looking forward to giving it a bash.

So that was my launch day and the week before was a bit of a waste, I did pick up Homefront last week and traded it in on Monday lol. Completed the story and it was just ok, nothing special which is a shame really but I will go into detail again later in it's review. In fact I just realised I've got a huge list of games I keep saying I'm going to review, think it will be a busy week. Anyway back to the story, so the reason I felt it was waste was because I kept putting off gaming since Lego and Crysis where coming out. Thanks to my job I can pick up games early and I did not want to start something that would be put on the shelf again when these new games come out, of course my luck ran out and was not able to get the games until Thursday night.

But there was a silver lining in the clouds, on Thursday I decided to go through the collection and see if I had any games to finish off with a few levels and one stood out. I remembered I was on the last level of the story for Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 (actually found out I had two levels) so I dusted it off and after a few hours I had another clocked game for my list, so happy days. And that was it for me this week, boring really but now everything is out it dies down now from the looks so hopefully a few weeks/months of catching up is in order.

Time to end this post, again give a shout with your updates and keep checking back for more updates. Before I go here is the up to date stats for my 2011 progress, next post will have the challenge details so stay tuned.

P.S. Sent back Gray Matter, it's not a bad game but it was looking to be a very long game which I really don't have time for right now. Will rerent it later on or buy it when the price drops.
