So I got Deus Ex: Human Revolution and it’s awesome. Well, at least the first part of it’s awesome.
I got to what I think is the first boss fight with a guy named Barrett and I’m stuck. I must have replayed that fight 20 times last night, and it ended the same every time. Dead in less than a minute. I start the fight with low ammo, and none of my upgrades are much help in a stand up fight. I hate to think I’m gonna have to start over and change my upgrade progression just for one fight, but it seems like this might be the end of the game for me otherwise.
The game itself is as wonderful as Sean says it is. Amazing graphics, rich environment and I really got sucked into the story quick. I just have to figure out how to continue it.

I’ve been playing Deus Ex: Human Revolution pretty much non-stop since it came out and for all the boss fights I have one word: Typhoon. That augment will help you out immensely for the boss fights, it’s worth the Praxis investment even if you are doing a stealth game and not killing anyone.

I’m currently working on trying to get the Foxiest of the Hounds and Pacifist achievements in Deus Ex and occasionally putting in a bit of time on Dead Island, which so far hasn’t quite lived up to my expectations but Deus Ex totally blew my expecatations out of the water. I’m now on my 8th playthrough and really don’t know when I will quit playing this game especially with the first DLC coming out next month. I’ve already put in more playtime with this game than I have ME2 which has really surprised me.

I finally got a copy of Dragon Age Origins, so I’ve been playing that on my laptop - I wasn’t sure if the graphics would work, but it seems to be going fine. Liking the story, but having a bit of trouble with the interface - right clicking is not intuitive to me, and the maps drive me crazy.

Also My Country and Words with Friends on my phone. And the occasional 1 hour free download of whatever new game bigfish puts up.

In between the time I’m putting in on Deus Ex and Dead Island I’ve added The Sims 3, The Sims Social and Resistance 3 to the rotation. For any PS3 owners here I highly recommend Resistance 3 so far. I’ve put in a couple of hours so far and it’s pretty frakking awesome. Deus Ex is still my top pick for GOTY at this point but Resistance 3 is not to far behind it and I generally dislike shooters on the PS3

Dragon Age:Origins on the PC and ME2 on the PS3. I am ashamed to say aI have never finished either! I get distracted easily I am loving the Sentinel on ME2, and am playing a Dwarf 2h warrior in DA:O which is very different to the mage I played last time, loads of fu t hough

I’ve really been enjoying Trine. I got it from the latest Humble Bundle. It’s a puzzle/rpg/platformer (that’s the best I can describe it) where you play as any one of 3 people, at any time. You can switch between a thief (with a grapple hook), a knight (with a sword), and a mage (with some powers) at will, and use their talents to solve little puzzles on your way to whatever the big prize is.

On the way, you gain levels, your people learn new skills, and the puzzles get (slowly) harder.
