Gaming Stories

This past week I've been playing quite furiously on the Xbox 360. Sadly, although I haven't been able to afford any new games to write reviews about (although there are quite a few which I have my beady little eye on - see my series of "New Games To Watch For"), I've been keeping my range of games played wide open. A friend got me interested in Fable 2 again, so for the last week I've been swapping between Albion, a post-infection Earth in Left 4 Dead, Worms 2: Armageddon and Gears Of War.

Fable 2 is a good game. Definitely not as emotive or special as its' predecessor, but still a good game. This week I tried to round off those last few pesky achievements which I still hadn't unlocked yet - The Gargoyle, The Dollcatcher, The Completionist and The Hoarder. By chance, I bumped into a friend of mine which I hadn't played with in a long time that was handing out free stuff. Stuff like dolls. I also managed to score The Enforcer off him, which I had lost after I gifted it to my ex-girlfriend foolishly.

The Gargoyle and Hoarder achievements were easy once I enlisted the help of the internet, which led me to Arkon's Knot in Brightwood and behind the Gypsy Camp in Bower Lake. The Completionist followed not long after with the last upgrade of my Inferno spell. Contrary to popular belief, you do not need to get all expressions in order to unlock the achievement. While I was at it, I decided to gift my wife another baby. Imagine my surprise when I returned a few days later to find the grown boy was in fact black. My wife had a very guilty look on her face...

Well guys, stick around for some more upcoming game previews, a look at some interesting new movies and of course, hilarious videos for you to laugh at. I'm pretty busy of late with new job opportunities, but keep your eyes out for new updates.
