Ah, it's been long, friend. Too long. Let me spin a tale of my travels...
Or not.
NEW PHONE
Last week I scored a new phone - the LG enV Touch. This is a step up from my old phone - an LG enV (1st version). Honestly? Gigantic upgrade. My father footed the bill on buying one for me and getting a free one for himself through Verizon's new every 2 program. Without going into a full-blown review, this thing is awesome. Seriously. I have almost no complaints. It's that good.
BB KING IN CONCERT
I was lucky enough to be able to attend the BB King Concert in town. Amazing show. 84 years old and he still brings down the house. He can still sing and play as well as ever. His interactions with the audience were priceless and humorous, and the music was amazing. I was also so lucky as to be able to get his signature on my guitar through some connections. While I did not get to meet him, I got his freaking signature on my guitar. I'm really excited about it.
BORDERLANDS
Okay, this came out a while ago, but we were using this is hold us over until L4D2 to came out. It's fun, all though the replayability is questionable. The loots are where it's at. Not much else to it. The difficulty was a little disappointing, however.
MODERN WAREFARE 2
I got my hands on this. The single player is extremely well done. While there are a few small feasibility issues contained within, it's overall extremely well done. The controversial "airport" scene was not as bad as I thought it would be when I saw it in context. Still terrible, but not as bad. The ending opens it up for a 3rd game, however.
LEFT 4 DEAD 2
Okay, Valve, I get it. You really did improve it. But is it $50 of improvement? I don't know. My disappointment with this still holds out on the fact that you never really gave us the DLC you promised for L4D1. However, I bought it as apart of the 4-pack, so I only payed $35 for it in the end. With that aside, this is my new favorite Valve game. Really.
FINIS
I've got dinner ready, but I will hopefully return with more content soon! I hope, at least. I'll give a fuller review of L4D2 when I've gotten through the campaign and all the game modes.
Until next time!
