Recently...

Took part in Valve's ARG and got the golden potato. Currently reviewing the 13 potato pack games.

Been replaying Fallout 3, good fun, but starting to stagnate. Will leave it for a while, though it's reaffirmed my belief that it's pretty much infinitely superior to New Vegas.

Played and completed Portal 2, both single and Co-op. Good, suffered a little in the co-op where only really one person was doing anything. Suffered from classic portal "oh, this is starting to get really, REALLY good... shit, there's the credits" syndrome. Especially the co-op where they finally started throwing decent simultaneous tasks at us and then it ended. Will try to do a decent in depth analysis again soon.

I'm going to knock a large number of other games off my list.Included are the original Fallout, Fear 2, Planescape Torment, and quite a few others. I'll probably do some quick-fire reviews.

Still not gotten DA2 despite (recently and briefly) reduced price, because I simply don't care anymore. GOTY maybe, but it doesn't look good enough to justify it.

Recently played a cute little game called Recettear. Good fun, I highly recommend. Might do an analysis of it soon.

I'm also starting to think that these big scary text dumps aren't neccessarily the way to go... The more I watch video reviews and quick-fire bits of info, listen to podcasts etc, the more I think I need to get some video software and start making ZP-esque exposition dumps. At least it'll only take 5 minutes and I can give you some nice bits and pieces of info.

 This is especially true for my "the way I play" which is starting to feel more and more like a fan-fic. This isn't what I want to do, I want to discuss my character, how they become who they are and why, based on the mechanics of the game and the environment they're in, I play them the way I do. Maybe a large biography a la a wikipedia page. Not this in-depth epic of story I'm currently writing.
I don't want to end up like tolkien and give too much info, you don't need to know every time I pick up a gold piece...
