As you probably read the title you going to wonder what I mean by just one day to go, well tomorrow is the launch date for Borderlands 2 in the UK. This game to me signals the start of the huge end of year line up of game launches. Starting with tomorrow we have Borderlands 2 then next Tuesday Mists of Pandaria hits the shelves and will be keeping me busy for a while. Saturday sees Angry Birds Trilogy coming to the main consoles as well, I'm very addicted to that game and adding achievements just screams to me to get on day one.
Goes slightly quiet for a week then it goes to hell in October and November, in fact there is one to two games a week coming out in most parts. I've had all the launches that I know of so far into my calendar and it's shocking how little time is between each one. I wonder if any of you guys have a long list of "must buy" games this year.
Anyway I need to go through some of my gaming and get some more trade-ins sorted, thinking some of the games I said I would play need to go. I did like most of the games but since doing the test posts I've not bothered with them and I don't see myself playing them this year now with all the new stuff coming out which will take up all my time. Plus it would save me some money which is always a good thing in my books.
Completely going off topic I did try out the pre-event for Mists of Pandaria (World of Warcraft) last night, well I tried to anyway since I found to my horror that my gear is too low level so the event was locked to me. I thought I could upgrade a few of my items and that would be enough to get me in but to my horror my complete set is massively out of date. It need a full brand new set which would take some time to do and since it's like five or six days to the launch it won't happen. Will miss out on the feat of strength achievement and tabard reward but oh well, my own fault for not playing properly.
This is what happens when you pile up too many games and don't give them the proper time, you miss out on a lot of stuff. Another good example is I'm working on Borderlands right now since I've never really got past level 7 before, currently playing four player co-op on the PlayStation with some mates and single player on the Xbox 360. I want the second one tomorrow but I cannot play it until I'm done which is annoying because no doubt someone will try to ruin the story for me. I know I really should wait to buy Borderlands 2 since I've not finished the first but I really want all the nice pre-order bonus items, the extra class and golden key stuff looks awesome.

So yeah not sure what else to talk about now other then I plan to play Warcraft to get a few things ready for the launch of the expansion, also work on Borderlands on the side as well. Oh yeah the Tokyo game show is currently happening and I'm seeing a lot of game announcements that I'm interested in so I will be posting about that soon so stay tuned for that. Think I will end this post now and go take a look at whats happening, see if anything else is coming out at Christmas.
Have a good one folks,
