Geometry Wars²

I found this neat XBox Card Generator on MyGamerCard.net. One of the cool features is the Geometry Wars 2 scorecard. Prepared to be embarrassed or proud. Here, I'll post mine:





Here is my general gamercard which is interactive:

What I'm playing these days

I haven't blogged in a while, so I figured I'd write a quick bit on what games I'm playing these days on my XBox 360 in no specific order.

Geometry Wars 2 -- I LOOOVE! This game. I just purchased it for 800 MS points ($10 USD). It's even better than the first one with all the new modes. I've completed all the modes including sequence. I currently have 10 of the 12 achievements in the game and almost won the sequence "smile" achievement but was off by one (man if I just had 1 more bomb!). I haven't tried the 4-player coop yet which I know will be insanely fun, but I did two two-player coop with my niece playing "waves" and "king" mode. Great game.

Schizoid -- Another amazing arcade title! This does have online-coop so my friend and I are currently at about level 80. This game is simple, yet very challenging forcing you to really work as a team watching each other's back. I'm determined to beat this game with my friend.

Oblivion (Elder Scrolls IV)
-- Yes, I started playing this game in 2006 and I cannot put it down. I recently took about an 8 months break from this game but jumped back on it about a month ago. I finished the main quest line, but I recently started over with a brand-new character who I want to be the meanest, angriest son-of-a-bitch to exist in Cyrodill. I created a custom class specializing in sneaking, magic, etc. Think assassinator. I have the birth sign of an Astronach. I didn't realize that with this sign my magicka doesn't regenerate, but I like the challenge of gaining magicka through other interesting ways like making potions or just touching someone and absorbing their magicka :) Although I can't regenerate magicka, the amount I use up for spells is very little plus when I get hit with magical spells, I absorb some of it. I'm already in the thieves guild and the Dark Brotherhood. My goal is to become head of those guilds.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 -- I recently completed Rainbow Six Vegas 2. I had fun playing with a character which had my face. They did a really good job with and really looks like me. I've been playing online recently doing Terrorist-Hunt coop and also regular Team Deathmatch.

Shadowrun -- I've been playing some multiplayer Shadowrun. This is one of the most overlooked, creative FPS game of all times. It is really unique in how you mix and match magic and technology to do things like teleport through anything, fly, turn invisible, etc. Along with the player classes it makes for a fun match of combinations and teamwork.

Those are the games I've been playing. Some future games I will be playing are the following...

Galaga 3 -- This arcade title looks scwheet!

COD 4 campaign -- It's a shame that over the 100+ hours I put into this game, I have yet to touch the single-player campaign. It's been all multi-player for me. I've already been through prestige mode, etc.

Assassin's Creed -- I only played out the first half of the first Act.

Mass Effect
-- Yeah, shamefully I hadn't finished this yet. I'm about 80% done with the single-player campaign. I also want to download the FREE "Bring down the Sky" DLC.

Peace!
