Had a bit of a break from games; I haven't wanted to play anything for a couple of weeks.

I'm going to play gears of war co-op with my boyfriend starting tomorrow. This should be ... ah, memorable. He's not much of a gamer, and he's never played a third or first person shooter on a console. My hope is that he will manage to get the hang of the controls, and then we'll tackle hardcore and maybe insanity. Um, yeah. I should also add for the sake of fairness that I'm not very good at shooters myself. The only reason we're doing this is because we've run through the lego games co-op and now he wants to do more. Gears was one of the few I could think of which allows co-op on the same console. I shall do a runthrough on casual by myself starting today so I can familiarise myself with the game.

Dragon Quest IV and Neverwinter Nights 2 still need finishing.

At the start of the month I downloaded the xbox version of puzzle quest plus the plague lords expansion; it's as addictive as the PSP version I played last year. More polished, more features, more content - I hope the sequel, galactrix, is as good.
