I told NotStyro 'Hey man, it is time to play games' and YAY! he listened! Gamer score is 5,130. That is a boost of 150 points over last time! That puts us above 5,000 points! He played Rainbow Six® Vegas 2 finishing an amazing 6 achievements, and NotStyro won't admit this, but I had to force him to stop.
I'm now in the solo missions in the campaign - the meat grinder, aka the refinery. This mission(s) force you to effectively use stealth, area analysis, cover and fallback cover to try to stay alive. Damn enemies pop-up/spawn into the areas just when you think you've cleaned the last of them. And of course, the checkpoints are spread thin.
Wanna watch something, here's some pocket reviews...
Wristcutters: A Love Story - Drameda, fantasy, romance. What?! Am I watching romantic/chic-flick movies now? Not quite. The quick rundown - "Trapped in an alternate world populated by suicide victims, a band of souls tries to find an escape route in Goran Dukic's quirky fantasy." Let's see, I guess it is comparable to Dead Like Me but with low-budget indie film cred. I liked it and that is all.
Steep - Sport, documentary. Could have also been named '45 degrees and above'. Documents the legacy of extreme skiing from Briggs descending the Grand Teton in '71, to Chamonix in the French Alps, visiting the awesome Valdez range in Alaska and wrapping things up in Iceland. The slopes and ranges that these people ski is just insane. I would recommend renting the Blu-ray version over the SD-DVD to fully experience the great visuals.
