Personal issues kept me from working on my planned 3rd year-end entry. It was intended to look ahead at what had my eye in 2010, though now that I think about it, my preorder list pretty much sums that up. Even as I write this, I’m uncertain ... (read more)

Saw your post on Duncan's page...so RB2 takes away the solo mode for Vox/Guitar/Drums that the original RB has, and makes the only career mode band oriented? That would seem backwards...especially considering that GH: WT and GH 5 you can do all 4 (add Bass), and I would imagine the Co-op (multi-instrument) career as well (haven't tried).

Thanks. It's much harder than it has any right to be.

Now I have to go through the boring summer league...

So how's SMB on the Wii? Are you playing solo? They kinda pushed the co-op aspect of the game in all the previews but I don't really see me spending much time co-oping the game.

Oh man, that's too bad about your 360. I really hope mine never goes through that trauma...

After just about 2 years of dedicated service my 3rd 360 has at last shown me the 3 red lights.

Did you play the first Sacred? I'd like to try Sacred 2 but I never played the first one and don't know how much I would be missing if I just jumped right into Sacred 2.

Go grab it! So far I'm having fun with it, though I'm not very far.

Yeah, you're going to need that shield. I'd grind until I can afford it. Fringe benefit is that you'll get some good exp as part of the deal.

Once you obtain the sword, it's basically a hop, skip, and a jump until the end.

Yeah. It's a grindy game. I'd recommend going after the Erdrick Armor. By the time you get that, you'll probably be around level 18. Then, you can do a probing raid into the Dragonlord's keep to get the Erdrick Sword. Once you get that you should be level 19-20. Once you are around level 20 or 21 you should be able to beat the final boss no problem.

Yay, Dragon Quest progress! You should just sit down and finish that one off, you're almost there.
