    I started playing Kings of Amalur: Reckoning yesterday. Far too early to say whether it is good or not.

    I've been playing Metroid Fusion on the 3DSXL. Haven't played it in 10 years since it came out, so I've forgotten everything. It's such a great game....

    Installed Bioshock last night after getting it from the Steam sale. But by the time I got it working properly on Windows 7, I figured it was time for bed.

    Decided to start playing walking dead today. Finished first episode and OMFG how good it is!!!!

    One thing I hated: after you finish episode one you get that ****y "what's on next episode". I ****ing hate that! I always skip that on my tv shows as its just a huge spoiler alert...
    I will just walk out of the room when I finish episode two. You ca skip that shiet.

    Anyway. What a flipping great game! I am so disappointed now that I did not bought back to the future fro these guys. :( they know a thing or two about such games. I haven't been so.... Stressed or swallowed by game for ages!!!
    Whens the next episode out?!?!!

    When The Walking Dead: The Game -- Episode 2: Starved for Help arrived in June, developer Telltale Games said fans could expect the next installment in August.

    Telltale looks primed to deliver on the promise with The Walking Dead: The Game -- Episode 3

    I am not proud of this, but here it goes:

    I levelled up from lvl 1 to lvl 15 night elf Mage last night... A few lads came back to it too...

    It was fun to be a gamer for awhile, but all good things have to come to the end. :(

    On PC, Spec Ops: The Line. Nearly finished, should be done by tomorrow.

    On PS3, God of War 3. Made some good progress but got distracted. Honestly just want to get it done so I can move on to Silent Hill and Metal Gear Solid collections.

    Deus EX: HR and DiRT 3

    Dirt was a free download, if you bought a AMD gpu last year. The deal was meant to run out on Dec 31st last and I got the gpu in Jan. Found the voucher Saturday when cleaning up and took a punt. Deal extended to next Dec. FTW

    Really? I'd have said it was vastly superior. I didn't care for inFamous 1 at all and didn't even play it to the end but everything I disliked about the first was gone for the second.

    Plot wise and antagonist wise it is weaker. There was a real challenge to infamous that was not present in 2, I found. They fixed the gameplay issues and made it a smoother package but lost something, in the mix

    Spending my time between Super Mario 3D Land, Binary Domain and co-op Borderlands and the expansions in anticipation of the 2nd one coming out soon!

    Super Mario 3D Land is classic Mario. Finished the first half and was easy but very enjoyable nonetheless. Looking forward to getting stuck into it again, it's very easy to pick up and play.

    Binary Domain was picked up cheap after seeing positive things about it here. I'm not very far in, but it's very very generic so far... Hoping that it will pick up. Camera is annoying at times and the voice recognition is poor enough.

    Borderlands is Borderlands. What's not to love?!

    Playing mostly FF4 on the PSP, have the main game finished and moved on to the After Years which isn't that great. Also a bit of Dragon Quest 9 which I'll devote myself to once I beat the after years.

    On PC I'm playing Thief 2 and moving on to Super Meat Boy since I finished Bit.Trip Runner.
