Long Time No Post
It's been a really long time since I've posted and I apologize for that (just in case anyone is still checking out this blog). I've been keeping myself busy with my two kids and haven't been playing games as much. Here's what I have been up to when I have been gaming:
Back in March, I purchased a Playstation 3 and Call of Duty 3 and became wrapped up in playing the multiplayer games on makes like EderDam and Poisson against my brother-in-law and others. Call of Duty 3 became infested with cheaters and exploiters so I stopped playing that.
Had a brief stint playing Splinter Cell: Double Agent for a while on the PS3, but it just couldn't hold my attention to finish the game. It just wasn't an engaging enough game.
Off and on I've been playing Company of Heroes. Now this game is sweet! I've always had a bit of a tough time with real time strategy games as they can get very monotonous and difficult to manage at times. But this game rocks so far. The graphics are great (especially on my 7 month old Alienware rig complete with Geforce 8800 GTX and Quad Core 2.66 processor and DirectX 10!) and the gameplay really pulls you in. A big part of it is the dialog from the units. This is the first RTS game I've played that actually makes you care (ever so slightly) about the units. It makes them seem a bit more lifelike and gritty.
