4 weeks!?

Wow, a month since I last updated this.
I finished Overlord, I still need to try and get some of the online achievements. Overall I was really happy with the game and will recommend it. It has a good length, decent story, some of the bosses are better than others (final boss was a bit disappointing). Pick up Overlord if you want a different game experience on your 360.

I got back into GRAW2 and started getting the co-op achievements. Great game really and I'm disappointed I hadn't tried some of the coop missions earlier. My disappointment with the coop levels is that it's not really obvious on how to complete some of the levels. Not a huge issue but if you're playing with people who are in the same boat as you you can spend hours trying to finish a level and fail because you didn't complete everything "just so". I still have a few achievements here and I hope some of my friends will actually try the coop because it's really fun with people who aren't asshats

I bought Bioshock and am blown away. What a great game, this is why I play videogames. The voice acting and graphics are the most interesting parts for me. The game seems really long too since I've been playing pretty diligently and considering my prior knowledge about the title I'm surprised I haven't even seen some aspects of the game. This is the kind of game that I worry will disappear if the Wii is successful. I don't like mini-games.. I don't like Japanese-centric games so if games like Bioshock disappear then I will likely retire from gaming.
