Rainbow Six: Vegas 1 - (Online co-op Terrorist Hunt mode) - 8/10
Metal Gear Solid 4 - Just defeated the second Boss - 12/10

I played Ironman last night. A rental from Gamefly..

You should definitely check it out, I started playing it again recently and love it. Here's what Wikipedia has on the PC version:

A PC version of the game was released 28th May 2008, with aspects of the game rebuilt in order to address criticisms of the earlier Xbox 360 version. Early reviews of the PC version by Ars Technica and PC Zone have hailed it as the "definitive" Mass Effect, and an outstanding port to the PC platform. The PC port was created by the company Demiurge Studios. The game entered the U.S. PC game charts at No.3, beaten by 2 different versions of Age of Conan at 1 & 2. The first mainstream print magazine review of Mass Effect for the PC was from PC Zone, scoring 92%. PC Gamer gave the game a 91%, stating that its main flaws were its horrible inventory system and the fact that it only has one ending.

The cool thing about beating the game is you get a class skill if you create another character. For instance, I beat the game as a soldier, so then I restarted as a Sentinel (biotics & tech), BUT, I am also able to use an assault rifle since I beat the game as a soldier. Talk about the best of all worlds!

I went through as an infiltrator (pistols, sniper rifles, and some tech stuff), and I'm replaying with that character to get the level 60 achievement. He looks a lot like me, and it's quite fun playing with him (I held a mirror up next to the PC and spent 20-30 minutes tuning the guy ). I also started a Vanguard too.

Info on Mass Effect 2 from Wikipedia:

Casey Hudson, Project Director for BioWare, has said that players should keep their Mass Effect save-files[citation needed], because decisions made by the player in the first game will continue to have influences on their character in the sequel.[citation needed] Players who have not played the first Mass Effect will start a new character in Mass Effect 2, and will be brought up to speed on the story elements that have taken place thus far in the series.[2]

It has been confirmed that the same team that worked on Mass Effect will be working on Mass Effect 2.[3] Furthermore, senior manager Matt Atwood at BioWare stated that Mass Effect 2 will be exclusive to the Xbox 360 for "at least a short period of time"; however, he also mentioned a PC version of Mass Effect 2 would eventually become available.

I can't wait to see how the trilogy works out!

I just picked up Dark Sector and the glaive rules.

Just finished Metal Gear 4. Highest rating there is. Great freaking game.

Borrowing my friends 360 while he is moving so I got to try Skate and GTA4.

Skate - 8/10 The flick-it controls are a good idea. I would love to see this implemented on the wii. I also would love to see the wii with a better graphics card, but I doubt that will happen as well.

GTA4 - 7/10 Pretty good. I like the updated environment graphics, but it seems like the character models could use a lot of improvement. I will definitely be getting this when it is released for the PC. However, while I was playing it, it really made me want to load up GTA3: San Andreas by far my favorite of the franchise.

I just got GTA 4 a couple of days ago. Looking forward to trying it out. I preferred Vice City to San Andreas.

Well, I'd tell you how NCAA '09 is, but the ******** still haven't gotten it to me...7 business days later...and...they can't tell me where it is, either.

I bet they are. ******s. The worst part about it is there is no customer service line, so I have to wait 24 hours for them to answer my e-mails, so on Monday, I sent an e-mail, and the response was, "that's not enough information," so I sent them all the stuff they wanted, Order No., date ordered, last four digits of credit card, yada yada, and I get an e-mail this morning, "I'm sorry, that's not sufficient enough to figure out what the problem is, but we'll look into it."

This really sucks. No phone number. You can't contact them in person, and now I know why.

Who did you order it from?

I try to never order shit through the computer...Being in Los Angeles most everything is out here or is decent driving distance away.

Usually people on Ebay cut A LOT of corners to sell cheap shit, and advertise it as original or authentic. China made crap.

Plus I have found a lot of problems with shipping...

Internet buying is usually a last resort for me...Especially for things I can go to the store and buy.

Can't beat NewEgg. Too bad they don't have a storefront down there.
