I beat the story mode in Super Bomberman R (a Games with Gold freebie) and then got all the Stunt Rings in Crackdown 3 for an achievement. Between the two, I experienced quite a lot of boom.

As I was shooting at some enemies, a civilian car crashed and blew up - giggle.

Super Bomberman R is pretty darn good. In story mode, you even go up against bosses. I was going to play some multiplayer with Mark, but when I tried to tackle the last level of the bonus world, I kind of burned out on it.

I managed to convince Mark to play Crackdown 3 co-op with me instead. We used are veteran players (I’m Chapman and he’s Terry Crews) and started a new world.  We are both total bad asses now. Both of us are maxed on all abilities. On easy difficulty, we are nearly gods. Only a very large VTOL gunship, a tank, a mega robot, or an artillery barrage can do us any real harm. What we were really after, anyway, was orbs and the last of the stunt rings.

I’m down to about 4 agility orbs. Those last ones are very tricky to find. They are all in the center part of the city with all the giant skyscrapers. There is a lot of vertical territory to explore. But both Mark and I got our last stunt rings for an achievement. We had to hunt for those too because they are not marked on the map. I used a walkthrough for my last one. It’s great that I can bring up the Edge browser in the middle of a co-op game, watch a youtube video and get right back in the game without dropping the connection.

Mark and I both helped each other find these things too. That’s the beauty of co-op. F’n blowin’ things up is good too.
