Topic: The Weekend in Gaming
And so the wife has pretty much taken over the PS3 to play Assassin's Creed. This happened right after I finished my second assassination in the game, but it's been ok with me. Given me a chance to do some reading (yes reading) that I have been meaning to do anyway. Also, I managed to fit in Uncharted: Drake's Fortune between her gaming sessions, which while no easy task, was worth the trouble. It does continue a troubling trend of somewhat short, overpriced games that plagues this generation, however.
Prior to my wife's interest in Assassin's Creed, I was making good progress with games that I had picked up over the past few months. I finished Blue Dragon after around ninety hours of play, and also knocked out Conan for the PS3 in around seven and a half hours (another of the too short for the money games). Both of these games were a good time, depite the length issues for the Conan title. I was also able to spend an enormous amount of time with Call of Duty 4's (PC version) multiplayer games over this holiday season. More on all this stuff to come.
