Beat DmC and DuckTales: Remastered. Enjoyed them both a fair bit.

Started Revengeance, not sure it took. So going to start Modern Warfare 3 as a brainless diversion this week.

I am starting a new policy of not playing games on weekend. I am going to try and stick to gaming M-F and doing other things on Saturday and Sunday.

A nice stroll by the beach:

I'm trying to finish up Adventure of Link, and then because I'm a sadist I've restarted Persona 3.

I've been playing Dead Rising 3, Forza 5, Bioshock Infinite, CoD Ghosts, Bravely Default demo, and D&D: Chronicles of Mystara.

If you read this Bear I would recommend D&D: CoM if you enjoy the classic side-scroller beat em ups. This one is quite good and certainly worth the $5.

Watched a lot of tennis. Played a bit of this:

Kinda disappointing that there's nothing new in it, but Sam plays differently enough, and the environments can completely change big battles. That boss battle above is so much better than the normal campaign's version. Oh, and hard actually feels like an okay hard difficulty, rather than old school normal. Very hard scared the shit out of me, as one would hope it would. Well, there is the 2D platforming section so far as new content is concerned.

Very hard was impossible, I had to play hard. Sam just doesnt have the weapons Raiden did so you have to play way more careful. The 2D VR is super awesome though. The wolf is about the same but even worse with the move list.

The wolf has an all new final boss though, right?

I don't think it made any difference. You were meant to lose.

Yes which is cool but it is a pretty easy pattern boss.

Wow MS buys Gears, not surprising, I guess Epic was sick of doing them so this made sense. Who is Black Tusk?

Chess 2 lol. I assume its a bigger better version of Chess 2. Then Chess 3 will be too similar with few enhancements and be seen as a cash grab.

Eurogamer reported on it a while ago.  Basically, the guy who 'invented' it changed a few rules to keep things lively.  Chess is, apparently, a game that strives to end in a draw.  If no one makes a mistake, it'll always be a draw.  High level chess games became too boring, and that's why the game caught the attention of what-was-his-name-again.
