Actually, I just wanted to post something so the loyal readers knew I was still thinking of them. Here are a few bullet points from my gaming world:

- Finished Fallout 3. Didn't do all the quests, but I hit the point where I was ready to wrap it up. Interesting ending(s...played to three different ones), though I have to side with the folks who can't understand why your mutie friend can't help you out in that one spot. At least the DLC will resurrect you (sorta).

- Played around with Burnout Paradise. Now there is a fun game, and a great revival of the franchise. Loved the first couple iterations of this racing classic, but then it got to be the same old, same old. Somehow this one reignites the fire, at 120 mph. You also gotta love the support they are giving the game, with the free bikes, and other looming DLC. Also, it was a good move to make the bikes not really crash per say, so that you can stay in the flow of the game. This game will remain in the library for a long time, as it is a great pick up and player. Steven Totilo has a good review of it here.

- Also did some Call Of Duty, World at War, but not much. This was after watching an episode of Brothers in Arms. Haven't decided about it yet. It might be too much on rails for me, though that's not really all that different from Gears of War 2, and I love that game. Any thoughts?

- Saint's Row 2 is waiting to get some time. Seems pretty fun so far, more like what I wanted out of GTA IV. And my chick is pretty hot, in a video game sorta way.

- Finally there is the new MotorStorm, but it hasn't left the packaging yet. Racing games often get pushed back in the pile, but I find I have tons of fun with them once they slide into the CD slot.

That's about it. Nothing major, earth shattering, insightful, or even very interesting, but you've come to expect that.
