I don't usually update so soon, it's only been a week since my last post. But what the heck...

As expected, I dropped Rock Band: Beatles off the list. I haven't played it for a few weeks now. It doesn't help that what I want to play next is the drums, but my two-year son seems to have lost my drumsticks somewhere... I did start playing GH:Metallica again, figured I would at least finish the Expert bass career since I was about 2/3 through it before I burned out.

Also,...

Minor changes to the list since last time.

I'm giving up on Oblivion. I wisely finished up the main quest before my Windows 7 upgrade, for fear of problems with the slightly "older" game on the new platform. Turns out those fears had merit, I'm experiencing random mouse-freeze/game-hang issues after no more than a few minutes of play time. Probably not Oblivion's fault per se, but I don't really feel like investigating too deeply...I finished the main quest, logged over...

I broke down and bought Halo 3:ODST last night. I had no choice...Toys R Us was giving a $20 gift card with purchase, and I can't turn down a free $20 for a game I know I want to buy eventually anyway.

I played for maybe half-an-hour last night. It's basically the same Halo experience, just some different mechanics that require a slightly less aggressive posture. Having fun, expect that to continue. Haven't tried the new Firefight mode yet though.


Updated list:...

Holy crap, it's been over three months since I updated my gaming list?!? I could have sworn it wasn't that long ago...time flew over the summer I suppose, I must not have done as much gaming as I thought.

I'm still playing Oblivion, but I'm going to take everything else off the list. I finished both Guitar Hero:World Tour and Metallica's guitar mode on Expert, and I'm not sure when or if I'll go back and play any of the other modes. Mass Effect continus to languish in "I'm Not...

I finally added a PC game to the mix, and it was Oblivion. Old game to be sure, but it was on my "to play" list...and it's not the oldest game on my "to play" list by a long shot! I have all the graphics cranked up at 1920x1200, including HDR in the game plus lots of AA in the driver...so even with my new rig, frame rate can drop to just under 30fps in the wide open outdoor areas.

I've got to tell you though, the game I'm probably enjoying the most right now is...
