Still plugging away at the Witcher. Unlikely to finish it this month with my gaming time limited and so much action on the TF2 front.

Already done with Eternal Sonata. I finished it on the Feb. 3rd. Just when it looked like the story was going to take off, it falls apart and dies at the end. A lot of plot points were introduced and then dropped. That led to an ending that explained nothing and completely ruined the experience. Bleh.

I have moved on to bigger and better things. I have moved on to God of War.

I'm going to put myself down for Command & Conquer 3. I stopped playing last Summer near the end of the Nod campaign. I'm going to get through that bugger this month.

Put me down for Assassin's Creed, The Darkness, and Company of Heroes. If I have time I'll play a little World in Conflict.

I have one more Colossi to kill in Shadow of the Colossus and I'll be finished with that.

Hemi, I finished The Witcher last week

Instead, put me down for getting the last 11 stars I need for Mario Galaxy, completing the last 29 events to get my Paradise license, and finally getting enough skill to beat the final mission in World in Conflict.

Or you could make the list not as bad and take off The Witcher from my name

I'm trying to finish up Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker this month. I've been making good progress.

Yeah, I can see how it might be taken like that. I meant it as, "Time for the next in the pile!"

Down goes Mario Galaxy.

I'm chipping away at Half-Life 2, but it's nearly half-way through the month now and I'm still not out of Water Hazard, so I don't like my chances of getting through it this month.

Put me down for Eternal Sonata...but with LO coming out tomorrow, that may not get done.

I don't think that ever gets old. I've done all the high points and all the save the citizens for all the assassinations so far and it does start to get repetitive, but the thing that really gets me is the counters that don't kill the person. Don't punch him in the nose and knock him down or kick him in the crotch, SLIT HIS THROAT!!! It didn't stat bugging me until it was 20ish on 1 battles. I can only counter so many times in a row and if he wont kill them with his counters my survivability plummets.

Crackdown update: I finished the second island (Volk) over the weekend. I'm trying to get 4 stars in Agility before tackling the last island in earnest-- there seem to be lots of ledges just out of my reach. And I love the exploration of searching for Agility orbs.

For those of you who've finished the game-- once you defeat all the gangs, how hard is it to level up your driving skills? I've been avoiding driving for the most part since the pedestrians always seem to run off the sidewalk, into the street, and under my car as I drive by =( . If I just do the races and stunts after the gangs are gone, will I still be able to get to 4 stars?

Driving is pretty easy. There's a spot on the third island where you car exits from the base that usually has some gang members walking along the street. Mow them down, wash, rinse repeat. You get the death squads, they jump out of their cars... you get the picture? You basically run up and down the same three blocks for quite a while.

Apparently I can't count. I just killed number 5 last night. Still have 4 to go. Number 5 was messy. I tried to do a "Death from Above" and ended up in a 20 vs. me battle. I actually killed the target accidentally with a counter kill.
