Recently was playing my little brothers CW GC ( :P ) On Felucia. We had Garrison bonus, which put the Republic (me) at about 30 reinforcements to 50. However, CIS had Enhanced Blasters, so we quickly got eliminated until it was one rifleman vs. 30 reinforcements. I won. :)

I'm with Fingerfood on TF2. Also finally broke 100 points in one round on Age of Chivalry. Yes, I'm still pretty new to it.

My friend gave me super mario galaxy. To keep. For free. I loved it when I played it in the hospital, so I can't wait to play it again.

I played through some Little Big Planet with my brother, was a lot of fun.

I also saw him playing FIFA 2002 on our PS2 (nostalgia); I walked in just in time to see one of his players kick a ball right into a defender's face. :lol:

I've been doing Metroid Prime 2 from the Metroid Prime trilogy for the Wii (beat the first Prime game over Christmas break) and I've just fought the Quadraxis boss. I forgot how much of a pain in the [Diet Doctor Pepper] that oversized machine was.

I was playing L4D2 today, mostly versus and scavenge. I started on dead Center Team Versus with Thire, his real life friend, and our friend Tachyon. After determining that the 4v4 Team Versus is impossible thanks to (rage)quits, we just went off and did Scavenge with randoms. We played two matches on Dead Center finale, both ending in the whole team leaving, then we moved on to the Dark Carnival Motel. We won there, barely.

Then we went off to The Parish's Hedge Maze. After getting 10 gas cans to the other team's 5, they made a comeback and reversed that score in the next round. After pulling off an impressive 11 cans thanks to Thire and Tachyon getting the ones by the CEDA tent at the end, the other team knew they had to get twelve to win. Starting off by trying to copy us exactly, we easily ambushed them and confused them quite a bit. They got 2 cans in, but then during overtime I grabbed Rochelle as a Jockey while she was putting it in the generator. A winner is us.

Funny Story: I was playing HL2:DM yesterday, and me and another guy were found ourselves running straight at each other, me armed with a 357, and he with a crossbow. We both fired when we were about 10 feet apart, killing each other at the exact same time. It was LOL-tastic.

Farmed weapons in Borderlands, killed some Super Mutants in DC metro area, then tore up the town some in GTA IV. mmmm sandbox fun.

Oh and spammed the Spas12 in CoD MW:2 quite a bit, it has very good range for a shotgun.

I've started playing BF2142, though a low end graphics card makes this difficult. I also can't figure out how to activate the expansion set. Oh well.

Anyways, while the game is fun, I can't see why the series or the game itself is so popular. It's all multiplayer based, and out of the dozen or so maps in the game, only four are single player. I simply do not understand why only four maps are SP while the other maps are MP. Why shouldn't those maps be in SP? Unless I know someone, or that person is in the same room as me, I do not feel like doing multiplayer at all.

There are quite a lot of SP-mods for bf2142 out there, which add to almost all maps SP-support (not only 16, also 32 and 64) and unlockable weapons. There is also a mod that allows you to play Titan-mode in SP (but it was kinda laggy on my system).

ON-TOPIC: I was playing Age of Empires 2 against a friend of mine who was plaing Britain (I was Teuton), I managed to build good defences while he was bulding outposts around the whole map and raiding me from time to time. At the end I had a fully upgraded army of teutonic knights supported by archers and two trebuchets. My friend had absolutely no chance and was swearing all the time as he saw my army moving towards his base.

Ah, thanks for the info. And your story...just lol. That's one of the funniest stories I've heard about AoE.

I recently bought C&C Red Alert from afriend and absolutely loved it, must have played one skirmish match for two hous but didnt get to finish it

Adventure 2

Bought a dinosaur hunting game from the same friend called Carnivores and thought it was a little bleh at first but quickly fell in love with the little game. Never realized how much fun it is to shoot an allosaurus in the head with a crossbow :)

Curiously the most expensive item in the game despite the fact that they are listed as worth 0. They are free pickups, and from that pickup you just feed it pick up food or bought food...either way a Tribble isn't worth 10,000. Once I get every breed I'll start breeding them to sell.
