Prototype
I was having a good time playing Prototype but something was a little off, luckily I thought I knew what was wrong and I was right. I rented the game for the PS3 but really wanted it for the 360.
Why? The controller. To me the 360 controller just feels right. So I rented the game for the 360 after a long wait at the counter since I got the new guy, and I had a hard time putting it down.
I put in about 3 hours on the PS3 and had to replay but I didn't mind. I ended up playing Saturday for around 5 hours and played 3 more on Sunday so I am really liking this game now. The best part is running around the city, you are able to jump and glide throughout the city pretty quickly once you learn the controls. I did get frustrated trying to reach some of the orbs that were placed on top of an antennae until I learned you don't try to crawl up it just get at the base and jump.
I am only 12 out of 31 missions so there is still a lot to do and I hope to finish it this week. Once again rent this game.
Rock Band 2
I have spent and played more of this game than any other. It is my favorite game so you will see it frequently. I haven't bought any music in the last couple of weeks, I am still waiting for Skid Row "Slave to the Grind" album.
Sacred 2
Played with George for about 3 hours and had fun, it is a great party game and his Wolfie character has some impressive combat arts.
Angel
After the death of Andy Hallet who played Lorne on Angel passed away earlier this year I wanted to rewatch Angel. So I have finished about 2 seasons and the show is still entertaining and one of the best shows on TV. I am still upset at FOX for cancelling it for some Snow Mountain program that lasted 3 weeks. If you haven't seen Angel I do recommend it, it has action, comedy, and some pretty hot chicks.
I am tired of Networks, they have cancelled so many of the shows that I have liked that I am almost through with TV.

WIPLN:Red Faction Guerilla, Sacred 2, Archomage
Thursday Night is our regular Sacred2 game night but I did get some other titles in.
Red Faction Guerrilla
One of 3 free-roaming games that came out within the last month and it is a very solid and fun title. The destruction in this game is really good, the physics are well done and you must be careful when detonating explosives as the debris will fall and crush you. I would recommend if you are dying a lot set the difficulty down to casual it is still challenging and you can focus on destruction. There are a ton of weapons to use but the sledgehammer is still my favorite, there's nothing like a guy hiding behind a wall trying to shoot you and you just smash through the wall sending him flying. There are many cool moments that happen and I wish there was a replay function so you could save some of your best moments.
Sacred 2
We have been playing this one for around 2 months and I am still enjoying it. It is basically Diablo on a console. It isn't as refined as Diablo but great for getting loot and dressing up your character. We finally got unique mounts recently which are fun since you can use your combat arts while riding except for Steven who can't keep mounts for more than 5 minutes.
Archomage
Who knows what this game is?
It was a mini-game in Might of Magic and they turned it into a small downloadable PC title many years ago. I have since lost my copy, but a homebrew version for the DS is out there to play.
It is basically a Tower Card game where you and your opponent have a castle and you use cards to build your walls or destroy your opponent's. You have different resources that you must manage in order to use your cards so if you are into CCG then go pick this up. This would be a great Iphone game.
