Well, here we are again on yet another rockem-sockem-robot-blog on the old 2old2play big blog board of blogging. The last time I put something here was back in March, right before I had to go on a pretty major tour through Europe and hadn't had too much time to game, so I do want to get you guys up to speed on my latest gaming shenanigans. I'm listening to the 2old2play community podcast and girdling up my loins to relate to you my XBL "exploits". Actually more like XBL "explosions". :D

Alright enough nonsense. Here's what's goin' on in my alternate life in TRON-land. Finally worked my way through all the HALO single player campaigns (HALO, HALO2, HALO3) and HALO: ODST in progress. Also completed the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 campaign with all the achievements, working on all the multiplayer achievements on this. As far as BCO1 goes, I'm only short about 8 cheevos to complete the game, so I'd like to spend some time over the next month wrapping this up. Other than that, not much really going on that's keeping me engaged.

Short poll, do you play one  game until completion, or do you mix it up? I'm torn between the two. Anyway, other than that, I'm looking at a stack of games like Mass Effect, Orange Box, and a couple of others, and I'll get to them soon and give you my report, I promise.

Thanks for reading,

P.S. Drunk blogging is a bad idea.

Depends on the game. Some games you can play to completion, and some you can't. Sometimes games come out too frequently to finish the last game you bought. Sometimes you just get frustrated and don't want to touch a game, and when you get back to it, you're playing something else. SC

I mix it up... Sometimes I play through to completion sometiems I let it go for something else... I am a very emotional gamer: I play what feels right to me at the time

If the game peeks my interest, I will play it through on normal or hard (what ever is one step down from the highest difficulty) single player until its done and I see the credits. Then it goes in the Achievements pile. I will go back and forth through all the games in that pile, getting as many Non-Public Achievements I can, until the next interesting game comes out.

It depends on if I rent the game, own it and how much I like it. If I rent it I usually play through it once not going out of my way to get achievments, then if I like it enough it goes on my buy list. If I own the game and like it enough to do multiple playthroughs I will attempt to get ones I missed or did not get due to choices in I made in the game such as in "Dragon Age" All in all though I play the games for fun not for the achievements.
