I'm surprised at how popular Borderlands 2 has been, my whole friends list on xbox live the other day were playing it. I knew it would be one of the bigger games at the end of this year, but I didn't expect it to be that popular, I have only seen that with halo, cod, gta and fifa, just seemed really random.

I'm not a fan of FPS shooters, but I had fun playing the first one because it was different, original and it meshed a lot of different styles. I can see why it's popular if even I can get fun out of it, considering the genre. I think the release was just the perfect storm. It was long enough since the last one, and it's the first big release in months plus the start of the fall gaming season, which probably contributed. We just did a 1 hour gameplay thing on BWP's Youtube and it looks like a lot of fun.

Right now I'm on Ratchet and Clank collection, and I just finished Sleeping Dogs, my second platty on PSN!

Yeah I agree I think its a number of things conspiring in its favour; like you mentioned. I might wait for a GOTY edition for it tbh, reckon it would be worth playing at some point. Still haven't played Uncharted, reckon I will next week at some point.

The reason you see all of your friends playing borderlands 2 is because 1. Borderlands 1 was amazing. 2. Borderlands 2 is amazing. and 3. and most importantly it's probably the most fun you can have playing co op.

Prison Architect.

Currently in alpha, I have only played the introduction so far, but it's definitely interesting to see how a prison management simulation will be handled (Info: Incarceration Imminent: Introversion Releases Prison Architect Alpha - Fusion Web Network).

That game is insane and just keeps getting crazier as it goes on. pretty fun though and i haven't seen better animation in any cut scenes.

Currently restarting my Pokemon White game. I got nothing to do on break at work so this will keep me busy.

Vanquish

Not bad, fun shoot-em-up / mech game but it's short and the hard mode is way too hard for some reason. Like more than it should be. Typical platinum/sega game otherwise but if you see it for cheap (it's a couple years old now) worth checking out.

I just picked up Kingdom Hearts for the PS2. Once my memory card comes in the mail that will be my main game for a long time.

My roommate has it so naturally I had to give it a whirl.  TL;DR version?  Elements of BioShock meets Assassins Creed.  Only 5 hours in but I am enjoying it a lot.

eBay. There are always people selling ethernet cables for low prices on there.
