Another General Update.

Updates are slow because things are moving slow. We haven't finished Halo 3: ODST. Well, we've all completed the offline campaign. Neo, Magus, and myself all have six of the eight Firefight achievements. We still need the Vidmaster achievements. And we all need to go through the co-op campaign on Legendary difficulty. We still need to go back to Halo 3 itself for two of those Vidmaster achievements. This last Tuesday saw the release of Crash Course, the download content expansion to Left 4 Dead. We've spent a few nights there chasing achievements. That has slowed us down considerably. Crash Course is decent fun in and of itself. Too bad it had to be marred by strange server issues allowing you to walk through solid objects and doorways leading to portals of oblivion. It's also a shame that the achievements are glitched out considerably. We'll have to wait on a title update to finish those off. As I'm writing this it has just crossed over to Monday. Demon's Souls arrives tomorrow with its major campaign and some level of co-op play. Demon's Souls is apparently a game where one could easily sink a hundred hours or more. The question becomes when to start it. If we're going to be polishing off Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST, will there be time for Demon's Souls? Especially with Uncharted 2 arriving a week later. Neo and Magus are both raring to go with Uncharted 2 which offers multiple offline playthroughs for trophies, a couple of online co-op modes, and a couple of online versus modes. And Borderlands arrives a week after Uncharted 2. Borderlands might shape up to be the hidden gem of the season and is offering an enormous world and four-player online co-op for the entire experience. Are we going to have to delay starting games? Are we going to attempt to juggle everything? Are we going to be able to play any single player games at all? Are we going to all go insane? Has Magus already gone insane? The Magic 8-Ball says... "Count on it"
