Games you're playing

I've tried this but tbh i get more with SKS/ QBU (4x sight, silenced, foregrip). I'm playing Rush BTW (just for clarity), its the only way to play battlefield.
Suppression isn't something that interests me. Any Bozo can set up a bipod and spray down a corridor for points. Also I'm OCD about keeping my KD above 1.
And reloading. After an engagement with LMG I'm constantly aware that I don't have a full clip. This will nag at me for the next 30-40 seconds until I give in and reload.
Thats usually when the enemy pops up.

This doesn't come under the description but I have a documentary series I'd like to recommend.

A Life Well Wasted by Robert Ashley is a really great serious of podcast documentaries about the games press, fans and a whole range of other related topics.
They are edited together using music from the creators band "I come to Shanghai". Production quality is really brilliant, second only to WA.

Take that as you want. Just trying to share something thats really great and FREE through Itunes.

Resident Evil 6 and the latest Halo.

I like RE 6 alot so far, the multiple stories are a nice touch. Right now i'm playing through Ada's story line. Halo is just..eh. Never been a big Halo fan, but my wife likes it.

Since I don't have my xbox in Germany, I'm playing android games... Empire Defense II is played a lot. Of course, I did bring my DS, so I'm funneling through replays of the Advance Wars series for some kicks.

Took a break from Halo in the last month, need to go back and finish the last 2 episodes of Spartan Ops. Currently playing a classic in Dynasty Warriors 7 and the new Naruto game. After both, going back to halo, madden (get the last few online achievements), and start Anarchy Reigns.

I was NOT happy with the storyline for Spartan Ops. And I feel like they cheapened the second half of the 1st season by upping the difficulty to legendary and tossing in way too many elites to make the game any fun for online play. But I did get a ton of XP and maxed out my level, but I don't think it was worth it.

I'm currently forced to take a month long hiatus from Halo (and anything Xbox) until the beginning of April.

I have to be in disagreement: I thought the entirety of Spartan Ops season one was excellent, and upping the difficulty to Legendary made it feel like it wasn't a complete cakewalk. I mean, come on, Heroic (or anything below) with four people on a team isn't even fair, unless they're all first time players or something. And I'm fine with Elites as long as I don't have to fight the goddam Prometheans; I prefer Covenant combat any day.

Also, Bioshock Infinite is in six days and I'm starting to shake from anticipation.

I thought the whole concept and storyline was fairly original and interesting in a way. Though I agree on the gameplay of it, I felt it was a bit repetitive and long on some parts. But it's easy to get through especially on Legendary since you can respawn over and over until you finish the mission as compared to story mode, it just meant I died a decent amount of times (7-15 times a mission going solo). But with Halo, it's all about multiplayer. It's what most people get it for.

Don't get me wrong; I'd rather fight Covenant than the Promotheans as well, but it felt cheap to bump the difficulty to legendary and set a high elite every five feet in some of the sections. Especially in cooridors. Yes, I respawned a lot, and that alone took away a fluid playing experience for me. It didn't help that I had people dropping out when I played too. I think I only had a full 4 party Spartan Ops team about half the time after January. Also, as for the plot, the biggest problem I had was what they did with Dr. Halsey at the end. I've never read the books, but what she did and said just goes against my grain... And Roland was annoying sometimes.

Multiplayer is fun, but... yeah, I'm going to leave that alone for now.
