Xmas 2010: Part 1

So far, I only have some of my Xmas gifts. We had to postpone some of the gift exchanging because my mom had her appendix removed right before Christmas. Ridiculous! Anyway, I've gotten Battlefield Bad Company 2, which is pretty cool, and Mount & Blade, which looks dated graphically but has some interesting things going on with it. It reminds me of some of the medieval combat strategy games I used to play back in the 1990s, except you get to control one of the guys in combat, and it has RPG elements. I'm still getting into it, but I think I'll like it quite a bit. Some people complain that it doesn't have a real story, but if you think of it more as a combat simulator, and not as a traditional RPG, it better fulfills your expectations. I'll report more after I log more hours with both games, as I think I've put in maybe one hour with BF:BC2 and three hours with M&B.
