In Other News – 10 February Weekend Edition

Well, I hope everyone is ready for a great weekend of gaming. We’ve got two major releases out this week, The Darkness 2 and Kingdoms of Amalur, so there’s bound to be something that will suit your tastes.

Me?  I’m going to kick it old-school, and finish Borderlands with a character that I haven’t used yet, or try and an attempt at playing a game of Gears of War 3 that doesn’t end up with me finishing a match with a lancer rifle stuck up my colon.

But what I’m most looking forward to this weekend, is the chance to see some family…And play with the chocolate labrador puppy that they’re bringing with them.
