Back In Rotation
I am finally back to blogging. It has been a busy couple weeks for me so hopefully things are properly settled down now. I spent Christmas at home in our with Rynala and the two of headed to her parent's house for New Years. From there I flew home to Idaho to care for my mom for a week and a half while after she had shoulder surgery and then the last few days I have been sick in bed.
What is amusing out of all of this is that before my long holiday, I figured I would be able to get in a good deal of gaming time. Sure I had some chores and responsibilities to fulfill, but without having work and school I thought I would have more time to game. I was actually surprised by how little gaming I have done over the last three weeks.
Rynala and I have been playing through Titan Quest. We just started the third act and are about 20 hours into the game. I am enjoying the game even if it does get a bit repetitious. Play this game is getting me really hyped up for the Clash of the Titans movie in March.
I have tried to get back into Borderlands but I do not know if I will ever be able to. Besides how much the game just feels like a bad port on the PC, the way the DLC is being handled is infuriating.
I recently picked up Darksiders for the 360. The game is essentially a mixture of God of War and the Legend of Zelda in a post-apocalyptic, demon infested world. I am absolutely loving it.

I know what you mean about Borderlands on the PC. If the option is available to you, I found it to be a much better experience once I ditched the keyboard/mouse combo and plugged in a USB Xbox360 controller. You still have to use a mouse to pan around the map, which is irritating, but other than that I get on much better with it pretending it’s a console game.
The DLC situation for the PC is still very irritating, however.
