I apologize for the lack of posts lately; the post-holiday doldrums have settled in, apparently, and I haven't found that much blog-worthy news of late.
I've polished off the Anchorage DLC in Fallout 3, and I've decided that I'm not going to play any more Fallout until the level cap patch hits; I hit level 20 even before I started the DLC and the way I figure, I might as well get rewarded for killing things. It's odd - for the entire course of the game, I was always struggling with money, but now I'm suddenly rolling in cash.
Finished The Maw; it's a cute, fun, better-than-expected XBLA title, but I'm not sure I'm ever going to touch it again. I think I mentioned this the other day - I like my XBLA titles to be the sorts of things that I can continually play over and over again, be it something arcade-y like Geometry Wars or something puzzle-y like Puzzle Quest or Bejeweled 2.
Speaking of which, there's a Bejeweled mini-app on Facebook that I'd been getting obsessed with during my less-busy hours at work, and so I fired up my XBLA version over the weekend. Is there any other game in the 360's library with tougher Achievements? My God.
Finally, I had a friend over yesterday before the Superbowl who'd never played Left 4 Dead before, so we sat down and did the airport level from top to bottom. I think I'm still buzzing from the experience; it was absolutely thrilling and we could not stop high-fiving each other for the rest of the day. I keep forgetting how absolutely incredible that game is; I need to be playing it more often, especially in this dry release period. Maybe we'll put a SFTC L4D night together or something.

Okay, that's it. I really need to check out this Left 4 Dead game. Maybe you can show me the ropes online sometime. I don't think anyone else I know has it, and co-op seems to be a huge part of the experience.
Caro, are you friggin kidding me?! Get this game ASAP! You name the time, I'll be there!
