That bear has its own teddy bear!

My buddy was laughing at me after I didn't get an achievement from these supposedly easy games for several hours. When I got to Open Season though, it redeemed me, and I ended up with the last laugh.

Ha! I couldn't resist asking you that.

Wouldn't it be awesome to have wildlife tag along with you like that though? It's silly I know, but it's adorable. 

     I looked up someone's games played on Xbox Live one time. She and I became friends through playing Monopoly. She had complete achievement scores for every single Lego game. I was shocked.

      I've played the Indian Jones ones and demos for the rest. They're fun but not a game I would buy day-one by any means. I'm excited to get to play them on my Monday lite gaming days though.

You can't fool me. Flying through those rings was silly bad. The races in Returns are at least possible to complete.

Exactly! Plus its just fun to zip from game to game sometimes rather than sticking to one game for weeks on end like the Mass Effect series I'm working on.

I sense a Def Leppard parody song called "Pour some chievos on me" invading my brain.

The Mako's controls did get annoying to me after a while. It goes where ever you look which is not what you want it to do sometimes. Looking should've been independent of direction of movement.

Fighting with the Mako came down to less manuevering and just sitting in front of the target, shooting, and then using the lifters to hop over incoming missiles. This is much easier than trying to drive around during a fight since you can't target while going in another direction.

I read all the descriptions of every planet I came across. I love hearing about all the history and scientific data too. I noticed there are a few jokes thrown in there. One says a cult saw their leader's image in the ice cracked surface of one world. Another is a moon that has etched in its surface various insults to humans. And several others have various urban myths attached to them suggesting some inteligent force behind a world's strange composition and weather. I enjoyed reading all of it.

I got that thing and killed it after a lot of shooting from the Mako. I have the game on easy, so I imagine that thing would be hard to kill on normal. 

Yea, my "away" TV (meaning the TV at my friend's place. My "home" TV is much better) is kinda lame, but I shoot it with my pocket camera anyway.

I can't believe they dropped the Mako after ME1. I'm tring to play through all 3 games this month, so I'll be missing that sharky rover soon.

I can see why some people think it's boring, but being a huge astronomy fan, I get so excited imagining myself landing on alien planets and driving around, even if it's some ugly desert world like many of them are in Mass Effect.

Hum... no achievements for finding stuff on planets. Oh well, I still like searching for that stuff. I think you get some experience and money for doing it though.
