Back in high school in the early aughts, I read halfway through The Fall of Reach. It was a far away football game and I borrowed it from someone that had brought it with him but was more social than me lol. I never finished it but I liked what I read. I've since picked up a copy and anothe of Nyland's books, First Strike, (thanks, Goodwill!) but I haven't read them yet. Hard to believe there are thirteen already. That works out to, what, one a year?

Whoa, nice! It can be hard to balance work, life, and games. Sometimes blogging falls by the wayside.

I certainly have an idea of what I'd call the game of the generation, though I suppose it could vary wildly depending on your criteria.

I read an article about it a couple weeks ago on USGamer and I must say, it sounds pretty amazing.

Don't feel bad, Joe. Goaztecs basically has cheerleaders built into his name. He was bound to win.

I had written off Asura's Wrath but you guys have convinced me to give it a try...sometime. I don't have it right now but I'll get it sometime. Hey, I played Mirror's Edge and El Shaddai along with you guys and I had previous played Lords of Shadow, so I'm feeling pretty good about myself lol. I don't want to spoil things for myself, though, so I'll catch up with you in a couple podcasts. And though I'm not very anime savvy, I'm glad Ghost in the Shell got a mention. I love that series.

You hit pretty much all my criticisms and then some. It's a pretty good game even though it borrows all its mechanics from others and is too long. It's just not a good Castlevania game at all. I'm interested to see what the sequel will be like though. Could be quite different from what I hear.

I'm not even aware right now of what's coming out soon. I've had a lot to play as it is. A wealth of games, you might say 

I'm hoping to get Blood Dragon and Killzone Mercenary. Gotta wait till I get paid though.

Hmm, I should probably play the game first. Well, I'll need to buy it then. Well, I should probably play my copy of P3 Portable for my PSP 

Nice
