The Daily Grind - Day Nineteen

Morning all,
Got to say wow! cannot believe I'm doing the 19th post for this, don't usually stick with things normally. So going to be spending the morning finishing off the collectibles for Batman AA so I can post it back to Lovefilm this evening when I go to work. Also need to update the challenge stats as well to include this game. So not going to waste any time and jump straight in, not going to go into detail today about the collecting since I found reading that bit yesterday a little boring but will be ranting when I cannot find a Joker Teeth again lol

------------------------------------------------------------

PlayStation just booting up, tell you guy's one thing I've had a huge temptation while at work to buy some of the super hero movie tie in games. I know they usually terrible but some reason I really want to play Green Lantern and Thor, thing is I need to save my money for the end year and from the looks of releases there is nothing now until August so plenty of time to save. Well there is Dungeon Seige and Zelda this week, going to hold off on Zelda and very tempted to get Dungeon Seige since I've heard the limited edition with the extra items is the same price as the normal edition. Need to behave! anyway time for some Batman.

------------------------------------------------------------

Feck got it wrong yesterday by the way, I did find the teeth in Medical instead found the West area ones. Anyway I've just started off well with finishing off the North Area so I'm only left with Medical (teeth), Caves (Chronicle and Trophies) and thats it! Think I will go to the medical since that will be hardest to find.

Found the bloody thing, read up on a guide and it mentioned there was some on the cat walks in the toxin room when you saw cash. I could not remember it very well so thought that would be the best area to look and I was right, one was sitting on top of the office out of view. Nearly missed it as I was about to leave. So going to head to the caves now and finish up, will do a few challenges as well then call it.

And that's it I've found all the stuff and Riddler is now been captured again, just realised I got to go solve the Chronicles of Arkham which is pretty easy so will only take me a minute or two to go there.

Sorted, ok going to go get a drink then will do a few of the challenges to earn a few more trophies before I send this game back. Really enjoyed it and I swear this game gets better every time I play it, cannot wait for Arkham City now.

------------------------------------------------------------

I'm back, so going to attempt a fighting challenge first where you take no damage. So going to spend the fight just countering, wish me luck.

Dang failed on the second wave, forget this I'm going to do the challenges I love, the silent knight! Going to do the all silent take downs in one challenge first before I try doing all the goals set. hmm did not get it? wonder if it was because they saw me, *Sigh* not having much luck just going to work on the goals and call it.

That's it then did three challenges and got the Predator Bronze, going to stop there now and send this back later. So time to update the challenge stats to include batman so be right back.

------------------------------------------------------------

Well according to my stat that was the 28th game I've finished this year, very please with myself and I would like to think I would least complete 50 games this year. That would be amazing for me and quite possible with the rate I'm going at.

Anyway just watched the Dungeon Seige 3 trailer and it looks good, to be honest I really do want to buy it but I think I'm going to hang off. I can see it dropping in price in a few weeks, same for White Knight Chronicles 2 and Origins. Really want them but I just won't play them yet and no doubt a price drop later on. Here is the trailer for Dungeon Seige anyway...


So going to go start Uncharted, keep putting it off and not sure why I do that. But I'm determined to give it a good shot and if I do like it, going to finish it!

------------------------------------------------------------

Just an heads up but I will be talking about playing Uncharted so spoilers!!!!

So on a boat with pirates, a empty coffin and a mysterious old book. Sounds like an awesome adventure is about to begin and so far it's not bad, graphics are nice but the controls are slightly weird but I can live with them.

Poor media girl oh well, so looking for El Dorado then :) should be good. The waterfall and river is pretty impressive. Really feel like Tomb Raider right now with the exploring old ruins.

------------------------------------------------------------

The story so far is starting to get interesting with the fact that they going with a giant golden idol not a gold city. Done a few puzzles on the way through the rooms and I like the diary guide, gives you hints on what to do in each room. Got to say I'm liking the game and about to hunt down the tracks to see where the idol was dragged too.

Ohhhhhh giant waterfall with a U-Boat? ok the plot thickens. Going to save and quit for now since I need some dinner and a drink, could do with doing a few jobs as well before I start playing again.

------------------------------------------------------------

Blimey it's late but I am determined to get this post up tonight but of course I've come home to plenty of new announcements. Cannot believe it's nearly midnight

So Batman Arkham City cover art as been posted up earlier and the PC version is showing Windows Live supported, so possibly another game that will stack! very happy if that is true and will gladly buy it on the PC as well. Also in the news department there is a Halo Stats app out now for the iPod and iPad which allows you to login and see your bungie stats for Halo Reach. Free of course and gives you a cool blue flame helmet for in game, might download that tomorrow.

Finally Ubisoft as announced a ton of special editions for Assassins Creed Revelation, check out Xbox360achievements.org for all the lists and photos. I really want the Animus edition since it looks amazing but cannot find anyone stocking it so far, everyone seems to be doing the 2nd big on so might put a order down for that for the time being then upgrade it once the Animus makes appearance.


Scratch that, adwil24 just made me aware that Ubisoft store is stocking the animus edition, guess its their exclusive and its just £10 more then the collectors. Pre-ordering now!
Never ordered from the Ubisoft site before so hopefully be ok, can always cancel if I have doubts anyway. Did notice they selling the Assassin Creed 2 hoodie that I saw a Ubi rep wearing the once, might have to order myself one of those when it's pay day!

Right going to check my 3DS stats and then call it a night, so lets see how many hits I had today. Three hits so not bad but seems someone turned off the store DS, dang! have to remember to turn it on tomorrow. So fingers crossed for some new puzzle pieces, wow all three had stuff I need! thats awesome. Just finished street quest for the night and only finished off the one room with just one blue ghost defeated. Least I'm in the tower now so not long now, so anyway time to shoot off. Have a good one and thanks for reading today's madness
