I played Lords of Shadow about a year and a half ago and have some definite opinions about it but I'll save those for the second podcast 

I was way underleveled when I got to Lucifer (funny how you, James, and me all ended up on the Law path). I had to grind in the palace for awhile, which is a good place to do that at least. I gained at leat 10 levels and fused a bunch of better demons. I don't remember what my final level was, though, and it's too much work to dig out the game to find out lol.

Ugh, ticks. That's lousy news. I'm glad you caught it so early. Hopefully you'll be completely better soon.

I have Space Marine on the PS3. It was a free PS+ game not long after I joined. Still haven't played it lol. I like the Warhammer 40k universe but I wish they wouldn't focus so much on the Space Marines. I always thought the Eldar were really cool.

Personally, I prefer when they put PSN games on PS+ rather than full PS3 games. It's so much easier to play through the shorter games.

It's really tempting to look up what to do sometimes (I've done it; sometimes it's not quite logical what they want you to do) but it's really satisfying when you have that "ah HA!" moment when you figure it out, so definitely try to use a walkthrough as little as possible.

Nice list, Cary. I played quite a few games thanks to PS+, so for me the service is worth it. Renegade Ops, Outland, and Bloodrayne: Betrayal come to mind. I still need to play The Cave though.

Congratulations! And going to Belgium too. Very cool. I also got a laptop when I graduated from high school. It was the first gen MacBook, which will tell you about how long ago it was lol. Anyway, enjoy your new stuff and I hope you like Phoenix Wright. It's one of my favorite franchises from the DS.

I had a busy November too, though it looks like we didn't play any of the same games lol. I definitely wanna play Black Flag eventually.

I have no delusions about how many new games I play in their year of release, except first-party Nintendo games. I often pick those up right away or at least as soon as I can. I played BioShock Infinite when it first came out. What else...? Usually I get to the end of the year and am not sure what I played that year anyway. That's one of the reasons I'm excited that I kept up with my backloggery. I'll actually be able to see everything I played this year.

Nice tunes. I think that Winters sounds, well, the most wintery to me. That is a cool variation on the Dark World theme though. Man, I hope Nintendo makes another Four Swords game eventually.
