PixlBit

Yeah, you just shoot constantly.

I'm always excited for free games 

I played a little bit of co-op on Halo 2 and I've never played the original, though I do have the Anniversary addition. I jumped into the series with Halo 3 (and didn't know what was going on!) but I hope to play the first two eventually. They certainly sound great!

No, it caps out at 5 but I'd love to see a picure of you trying that lol

I miss 1UP. It was a great site and I've never been so interested in the "official" content of a site as I was with 1UP. Still, I've become more active in the community here on Pixlbit. I'm glad we have this place, even if it isn't where gamers call home. 

I originally intended to do as you are and post my blogs to several different sites but it was just too much. I have a hard time keeping up here, though I'd love to repost on 1UP too.

I like the Silent Hill series a lot, though I've only played 2 and Shattered Memories. SH2 is such a great game but it's because of the story and atmosphere. Shattered Memories is good too. I played the Wii version, which is what I'd suggest doing. It makes good use of the remote. It's a very loose remake of the original. There's no cult or anything, for instance. I want to play more games in the series but I'm not sure where to go from here.

And yet another game I hope to get sometime 

I did! It's on my PSP collection. But I'm stuck on the boss of the fifth level  He's the demon-dragon guy that has two swords and walks along the ground shooting those fire pillars out of the ground. I don't think I upgraded my weapon enough, so I might have to start over.

I think I have this on a Capcom collection for PSP. I should try it out. Sounds fun! I hope the version I have lets you use infinite continues though.

I just listen to podcasts while driving too and from work, so I don't have a lot of time. The Giant Bombcast is therefore indeed intimidating with its length. My favorite podcast is Retronauts. The most recent one is about Yasumi Matsuno (of Ogre Battle and FF Tactics fame) and is really interesting. I also usually listen to the Touch Arcade show each week, but that's only interesting if you like iOS games. I've listened to NWP off and on but haven't recently. I should give it another go. I was following Backloggers Anonymous, though, until Asura's Wrath and will probably pick it up again after that run finishes. I really liked Digital Mystery Tour but I guess it didn't prove popular enough  But there are definitely way more cool podcasts out there than anyone can actually listen to.
