The fucking telemundo/wanting to play with Hoobastank shit has me cracking up at work. WLEL PLAYED GOOD,SIR!? (I'm not into the whole faux-"sir" thing if anyone knows what I'm saying - I think it's a nerd thing.)
Yeah, this version of BB is fantastic and if Jon is actually able to do a PC version I saw Action Team goes that route. I'll most likely just rent it on the 360 to get some achievments and maybe play some games w/ a different crowd, but overall I'd feel better about getting the pc version for the possibility of mods/quicker updates/free online/etc. We'll see, when the heck is this even supposed to come out?
For Blood Bowl in general, it's just a hard game for me to keep focus when it's not my turn. 4 mins FLYS by when its your own turn, it's sometimes not even enough time, but when its the other guys turn, I hope they do something to spice it up. It's a good game for listening to podcasts to though because there's so much downtime.
There was a gnarly sale at Best Buy yesterday (well all week but comeon, shit was sold out pronto) of a bunch of 360 games for $10 bucks. I just bought a racing game and an rpg, but they also had some warhammer game (battle march?) I shoulda bought but I didn't.
Played a fuckton of the new Survival mode in Left4Dead yesterday and it is totally awesome. I just played with 3 random dudes but they were all pretty cool and good players and everyone was on mics so it worked. Survival is basically like the end scenes in the regular mode where you do something that starts the hordes and you have to survive. What they've done is just made all these different scenes standalone and it's wave after wave - so the maps are altered a little, and you're just trying to survive against a clock. When you start you've got as much time as you want to explore and come up with a plan (and there's always tons of explosives around) and then you start the event and watch all your plans fall apart.
It's fucking fun. Remember the level in No Mercy where you make your way to an elevator? So this is just that floor with the elevator. You can break all the little side doors down and theres projectiles and pills in the little rooms and then when you're ready someone calls the elevator and it start. OH MY GOD, it's so insane. Just for the guy who starts the events, trying to run back to where we picked as our room was insane. It got to where we were all in this little operating room, two tanks in there (both on fire from malotovs) horde rushing in the door, and hunters and smokers all over. JUST NUTS! So awesome. If you survive 4 mins you get bronze, 7 mins silver, and then 10 or more for Gold. We could usually get bronze, sometimes silver, rarely gold. SO FUN! Get a day pass or something eric and we'll get Jon and someone can dual screen w/ one of you guys for it.
