It's pretty cool so far. The gameplay is pretty solid, and I like the art direction. I also have Borderlands to try.

I can't wait to get my 360 from repair so I can finish off the campaign in ODST and do some firefight. I also want to play the new Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City.

Oh yeah, Bioshock 2 is not that far way 02/09/10 and Modern Warfare 2 is right around the corner

Yeah.. I'm still waiting on my xbox360 to return from repair as well.

I am looking forward to trying out borderlands too...

I think I will give it a rent on the PS3 (or 360 when back from repair) and see what I think. If I like it maybe I'll have to buy it.

Borderlands is way too addictive.

I'll modify my statement now that I've played most of the day. It's addictive, but it's also getting frustrating. The missions are getting harder, and I can't seem to get ahead of the curve. If I was playing co-op, it would probably help. I also keep spending too much money replenishing my ammo and health packs, and the really good items cost a ton. Also, I spent a lot of skill points upgrading my turret's firing power, but even maxed out it's not all that effective anymore. I suppose it does still distract some of the enemies when there are a ton of them, but it would be nice if it was dealing greater damage. I can pay to reset and reassign all of my skill points, but that costs a lot, too. Respawning also costs money, so yeah, there are always things keeping me from getting the best items available.

I don't really know where the story is going. So far it's just a bunch of missions with no discernible connection, but there's a Cortana-like female presence who communicates every once in a while, so I know it's going somewhere.

My character is only up to level 16. My nephew is at level 32. He and my brother-in-law have been playing it a lot, I guess, and it sounds like they're getting as frustrated as I am. Here's hoping we find ways to make it easier.

I'm thinking about getting Dragon Age Origins. It comes out tomorrow and looks pretty good. I liked the old Baldur's Gate games by Bioware.

Not sure how much gaming time I'll have coming up though with only 7 weeks left until the baby is due.

I just recently finished Uncharted 2 and really enjoyed it. A lot of fun and great characterization. I loved how the characters interacted with each other.

Next up, I think I'm going to try to actually finish Metal Gear Solid 4. I got up to the last part a while ago, but never finished it.

I think my next purchase will be the Batman game. From what you guys have said it looks good.
