So many games on the back burner. In my drawer and on my computer I have: Ninja Gaiden DS Radiant Historia Dragon Ball Origins Some DBZ game Red Dead Redemption Final Fantasy XIII Okamiden Portal 2 (for 360 but I don't really want to play it for 360. Couldn't imagine playing the first one on a console) Grand Theft Auto 4 Castlevania: Lords of Shadow Bayonnetta (played a bit of it but the opening of LoS interested me more, I guess super mega over the top with little story isn't my thing? Gameplay looks like it has potential but not the second coming like everyone implies) Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 Skyrim Half-Life 2 Left 4 Dead 2 Bastion

I used to play Skyrim but then I took a patch to the knee.
I got about 20ish hours into Radiant Historia, got stuck (refuse to use guides on a game like this) and I lost interest. Ofcoarse that wasn't the first time I lost interest but it's surprisingly an easy game to pick back up and play despite it being so story heavy.
I can never get myself to finish Half-Life 2. I always lose interest. I've tried many times throughout the years. I had no problem finishing the first. I just don't see why people think it's so amazing. Like Ravenholm was alright but there was a lot of wasted potential and it got old long before it was done. Still fun but nothing too special. I think the furthest I made though, was the complex after you get the pheromone bomb things.

Anyways, I've been playing a lot of LoS lately. The camera is bad but I've gotten used to it. There are still a lot of annoying parts aside from the entire swamp level. The platforming / repelling / cliff hanging could have been done a lot better. The music is nowhere near as good as the older Castlevania classics.
I mean it is a very enjoyable game and it's probably going to be the first game I'm beating since I got back from Afghanistan, it's just that this is the first Castlevania I've been excited for since Circle of the Moon (well I was pretty stoked for the Wii fighting games till I started seeing some of the previews / reviews pouring in). Harmony of Dissonance was a dissapointment and I can not for the life of me see why the Aria of Sorrow / Dawn of Sorrow games have such a large following. I just never gained enough interest to give the other DS games a spin.
Definitely a good purchase though (got Bayonnetta, FFXIII, and LoS for under $50 at Gamestop).
