So got through the entire holiday glut of games just in time for my 360 to die. This next one will be my fifth 360; no joke. So now I have time to catch up on work, at least. Maybe upload some crap here.
Only downside: RE5 demo drops in about a week, and I'll almost certainly not have a 360. Yes, I am quite excited for RE5, despite the fact that I hate HATE the female main character. Hate. Will probably write a Militant Feminist Game Review on it.

Mini Reviews:
Fallout 3 - 7/10. Large game. Time consuming but rewarding. Basically Oblivion with guns and a timed battle system, no matter what anyone says. Legendary items encourage exploration, but are only stronger versions of already existing weapon models (LAZY).
Mirror's Edge - 6/10. Overall, fun. Artistically impressive, and major kudos for innovation. Short length, and HORRIBLE, UNINSPIRED STORY ultimately drag the game down.
Call of Duty: World at War - 6/10. A lesson in flawed multiplayer game balance. Also, basically CoD4's multiplayer only in WWII. Single player exceeded expectations, but was short. In the end, at least worth playing.
World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King - Wrath/10.
Left 4 Dead - 8/10 (+1 point for my blatant Valve bias). One of the best co-op games I've ever played. Long story short: awesome, but unfortunately awesomely repetitive at times, despite the, frankly, excellent AI.

Things I need to buy: World of Goo (Wii), Frisky Dingo on DVD. That's about all.
