Whoa, it's already 2012. Can't wait for that end of the world thing that everyone is talking about.
Like always, nothing special has happened since last journal entry, but it's been quite a while, so here's a small vidya gaem update.
So, I got Skyward Sword (Limited Edition) weeks ago. I was really dying to play this game, but now that I have it I just don't have the motivation to play it. I just got myself to finish the first dungeon couple days ago. I ordered it from a store that took their sweet time on shipping the damn game, so I had to go and buy some other game to play until it arrives.
The game I picked up was...
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, a game that I wasn't looking forward to at all. I was super skeptical about the game and didn't expect to actually like it, but with well over 150 hours of playing, I can safely say that it's okay. No, not just okay. It's pretty damn awesome. One of the most awesomest games I've played in a long time. I even went and got all achievements for it, which I have never done before.
I got Vanquish quite a while ago, before Skyrim and Skyward Sword.
It's a great third-person shooter, though I haven't gotten far in it yet.
Mad props for Platinum Games for actually including SDTV mode for it.
I also finally got Portal 2 yesterday. I was waiting for massive price drop, but it doesn't look like it's going to get one anytime soon so picked it up for 30 euros. It's a great game, but considering that I've already beaten it and gotten all single-player achievements, I don't know if it was worth the price tag. Haven't had a chance to check out the co-op though.
Also bought Contra Hard Corps: Uprising from XBLA since it was deal of the week. Tons of fun.
Go buy it now.
I also bought Humble Indie Bundle #4 which included twelve games and soundtracks for each of them. I'm not into PC gaming and I've only played one of the games so far, but it was for charity.
Played couple minutes of Killer 7 and I already hate it. Congratulations, Suda 51! It's a new record.
Got Pokémon Colosseum from my friend for free. I was just like "Hey, I'm going to steal this" and he was like "sure". Sadly I haven't had a chance to play it yet since my stupid memory card doesn't have enough free space.
I also bought this cool Metroid arranged album made by Bad Dudes. You can buy yours from here. Also available for digital download.
- Update: January 12th -
Dark Souls. That is all. I killed some giant skeletons, taurus demon and tried to fight this dragon. Decided to let him live for another day since I got nice sword from whooping his a** for a while.
I wonder if he'll give me more awesome stuff if I keep beating him up.
Also spent this day going around fleamarkets and found couple kewl things. Such as...
Naruto: Rise of a Ninja, which I have been thinking about buying for quite a while. It came with some bonus DVD or something, so that's pretty cool. I heard that Transformers: War for Cybertron was really good so picked it up too.
I also bought two old VHS tapes of Denver the Last Dinosaur.
