76% Done w/ my ACIV run so far.

I have a LOT of Animus bits to collect as well as a Galleon-load of buried treasure to find.

Good news though: I managed to get the Hunter's Outfit, the Stealth Outfit and The Mayan Outfit tonight.

Many more Bothans are gonna die tomorrow to finish out the rest of the Assassinations during my next broadcast

I hope that everyone here that owns a PS3, VITA or PS4 plans on buying Rogue Legacy on the 30th. One of the best games of last year.

This is a really cool story:

I also started up my 360 copy of RDR thanks to both Swarley and Handle. I beat it on PS3 and had only done the co-op stuff on 360.

I would also add that thanks to Swarley I'm back into NCAA. I fired up my Terps dynasty in which I'm in Season 2. The last three games I've played have been epic. I'm ranked #2 in the country and barely squeaked by unranked BC 24-10. That was with a late TD to seal it. I lost my starting QB for the remainder of the season in that game but my backup has stepped up huge. Then I had a crazy shootout vs Syracuse where I squeaked my 56-49, again with a last minute TD to take the lead. My last game was against another ACC opponent who escapes me right now. It was a thriller. I was down by 10 with under two minutes left. I was able to score an amazing TD on a long pass where my WR had to come back to the ball at the five yard line and then barely muscled into the end zone. I then went for the inside kick because I only had one timeout left. The ball bounced around for what seemed like forever and I was able to recover. I didn't even know I had it until Nessler said "And the Terps recover". It was such a crazy scrum. It was one of maybe ten onside kicks I've ever recovered in Madden/NCAA. I was able to drive down and rush a TD in with 14 seconds left to get the win.
Man I love NCAA. What a damn shame it's the last one ever.

Thanks to Swarley, I started up another Red Dead Redemption play through this past Sunday (haven't played the game in over 3 years).


Entered Mexico last night and it is STILL one of the greatest gaming moments of all-time.

With only Shadow Broker and Arrival to do before moving onto ME3, I gotta say that my trip through ME2 was decent.

I've played the game to DEATH since I've originally bought it so it didn't take me too much time to beat it.

*I skipped some side missions that weren't DLC so Zaeed, Kasumi, Overlord and Firewalker stuff filled in the gaps to get me to the LvL Cap.

...can't wait to dig into ME3 again by the end of the evening.

After playing Banjo Kazooie, Ive played Banjo Tooie for about 2 hours and I really dont like it at all.

Kazooie >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Tooie

Fundamentally tho Tooie is better

I actually really enjoyed Seths list but it came at a negative. I didn't become a gamer till the late stages of ps2, so while I enjoyed reading about all of these smaller games Ive never heard of, it was a bit hard to talk about simply because I didn't play most of them.

I really don't think they were that they were that far off base. McCaffery kept saying that it does matter, even if it's just the perception.

I'll have to locate the video version

Everything but the top 10 are on here, somewhere. Go nuts. I'm not really looking for views though. I like talking about this stuff and/or arguing about them.

I know it's not about views, our hope is that we can catch some people with content like this so they are interested in coming here for discussion. You have to use stuff like this to get people interested in a site, it's more difficult now to recruit for forums but not impossible. I appreciate you letting us use them.
