Gaming Update - August Edition

What I recently purchased:

- Mafia 2 (PS3)

An interesting game to say the least. I never played the first one but the trailer for this one really got my attention a couple E3's back. Very fun game, especially if your a fan of the sandbox driving games. I'm also a "fan" of mafia related entertainment so I guess it was a no brainer in getting it.


- Zeno Clash (PC)

One of those hidden gems you miss on steam. Very wacky and creative at the same time. Also developed by Indie developers which was really surprising when it comes down to the actual quality of the game. The story starts out cliche like but as it progressess, there is a lot more depth to it.


- Terraria (PC)

Easily my favourite of the games I've recently purchased. You basically do what you want, build what you want, craft what you want, and kill what you want. A very creative game with new content coming out regularly. It's compared to Minecraft a lot but I haven't played minecraft so I have no say in that.


- Garry's Mod(PC)

Ah Garry's Mod. So much to say about this game because of it's infinite possibilities in doing whatever you want. Your practically thrown into a sanbox map and create what you want using thousands of different NPC's, items, and other things seen in Valve's games. You can also add things to your Gmod by downloading them off a certain website. But you basically build any contraptions or play however you like. Personal favourite of mine would include a lot of zombies and my car :).


- Borderlands (PS3) (Bought for the 2nd time)

I guess It's safe to say that I really enjoyed playing and beating this game twice. I've also abought all of it's DLC minus the last one and STILL find ways to entertain myself. Borderlands was my GOTY back in 2009 and still ranks pretty high up for me. Oh! And Roland FTW!



What I am playing:

- NHL 11

The last couple weeks of NHL 11 loom closer as NHL 12 creeps it's way up September 14. I've had an amazing run in NHL 11 by finishing two seasons of Be A GM, one season of Be A Pro, 10-1-0 Online record, and a couple days away of reaching 1000 points with my Club player.

- Demon Souls

Demon Souls and I have a love/hate relationship. I love when I win and hate when I die :P. I'm still playing this game on and off in hopes that I can complete it one day.


What just caught my interest:

Dark Souls

Alright alright! So I'm having trouble with Demon Souls, what makes you think I'm going to have problems with Dark Souls too? Pssh.

At first when I saw Dark souls, I just thought to myself that getting another game like Demon Souls would really not help my PS3 or myself so i disregarded it. Now as I started playing more Demon Souls though, I'm more interested in finishing it and playing more of the same game.

The new Bartholomew trailer for this game really caught my interest too.


Most anticipated game:

Dead Island

This was a very close decision between Dead Island and Battlefield 3 for the 2nd time in a row. Dead Island pulled through because it's closer release date and zombies. I've been waiting for this game since it's CGI trailer rocked the gaming world. A 4 player CO-OP, sandbox zombie game is a dream come true to many zombie lovers. I know it is for me!
