Towel day

Lest we forget.

Well im finaly getting the hang of shooters on the 360! Hurray! Iv'e been playing through Borderlands as a soldier and hit 19 today but just cant be arsed to push on to 20 to even it up . I do have a little OCD possibly, I like things symmetrical and neatly numbered. Only 15 or so levels and I can grab the Zombie island of doctor Ned DLC.

So far i'm really enjoying writing this blog especially as i have told no one at all about it :) It makes me feel all smug and warm to think I have a blog and no bugger reads it. I recently deleted my facebook page due to the sheer amount of stupid groups people want you to join and the endless beer, flowers and other assorted digital crap they send each other.

In all I think its fair to say I am a friendly and chraming person that just really doesn't like 90% of other people due to to inane bollocks that they like and want me to find facinating too. I fully realize the irony of posting that on a public blog but hey i'd prefer noone reads it any way. Please come again and have a nice day.

Borderlands

YaY finaly got my copy of borderlands for the 360 today, I have it for the pc and have completed the first play through with the soldier class and boy was it fun. This time i'm trying the brick class, a melee and explosives expert that im not to sure about yet but i did manage to down the first boss 'nine toes' (also has 3 balls apparently!) first time with great ease. this could be my l33t skillzor or its more likely its just been dumbed down for the consoles control method. Yes I am an elitist jerk when it comes to PC v's console.

Games

I recently got back into X3 Terran Conflict a space trading game, I've been a fan of the series since the start and can loose many hours to it slowly building up my fleet and trading empire. The deploying of stations and with x3 whole complexes is great fun and I have finally figured out using wings of fighters to take on pirates :)

That was befor i managed to pick up a copy of Forza 3 for the xbox 360 a great driving sim where they have even taken tire temp and pressure into account for the handling. You play through seasons with a championship race every sunday and play 1 of 3 offered races during the month. The races offer either using your current car, a new track to try or a new car class to drive. Its sucked

up about a week of play non-stop so far and I feel i've found a reason to play xbox over pc for a change!

This was one of my first custom car designs.

The wife has got back into Cities XL a city building sim similar to the old simcity franchise but with greater scope and allows for curved roads and some spectacular cities.
