Crusader Kings sounds pretty cool. I thought Call of Juarez about fight modern day drug cartels, guese thats a different game. And I'm still making my way through Bioshock Infinte and really enjoying it very much. The Volley Gun is my new favorite toy.

Sorry I haven't been reading your blogs as much lately. I'm at Bilbasaurs place, and she has limited internets, so if you're blog has youtube clips or too many pictures, I won't look so I don't cost her stuff. That said, I will be back soon and I'll TRY and catch up. I have holidays, so fuck it.
Anyway, let's talk about those things that this site is about. GAMING! What have I been playing?
Call of Juarez: Gunslinger
Yeah, this game is kinda fucking awesome. It's a Western with a narrator a bit like Bastion who responds to what you're doing. You're character is telling stories of stuff that happened when he was younger, and details change and things just appear as you're playing the game. It's highly entertaining.
The shooting feels fast and fluid, and it's a hell of a lot of fun, especially when you use the shotgun. That thing blows people back for like fucking miles in slow motion. Also, the game is about 20 bucks. Play it!
Civ 5
There's a new expansion, so I've been playing this game again like crazy. Late game is so much more fucking awesome now! There's so much more that you can do, and Civ 5 finally has the complexity of Civ 4 without sacrificing the accessibility that has made it so newbie friendly!
Crusader Kings 2
After sitting through a fuckton of tutorials, this game becomes amazing. Rather than playing as a country, Crusader Kings is about individual people, scheming and backstabbing. I like that to start a war you have to have a good reason or other people will hate you and set out to destroy you. If you just want their land though, get one of your counselors to fabricate claims, sow dissent among the kings people. I caused an upheaval in one country that lead to the king being assassinated by his own army, which lead to civil war. I then came in and claimed the throne when there were next to no soldiers left. Because that's how I do things!
There's also a game of thrones mod, which sounds FUCKING AMAZING! Except... I CAN'T GET THE FUCKING THING TO WORK! I think it's just because of the latest update for the game and I just have to wait for the dude to update the mod.
Guacamelee
You play as an undead luchador who can change into a chicken at will. The main villain turned satan into a GIANT PURPLE COCK! Rooster cock, not saints row 3 cock... YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!
Anyway, it's a 2D metroidvania-esque brawler with an awesome art style, great combat and wrestling moves that tie into the exploration. It's fucking amazing!
The Sims 3
Don't ask me why, but I just had a craving to play The Sims lately. It's addictive and it's fun, so shut your fucking mouth. However, one complaint about the game. WHAT FUCKING JUSTIFICATION DOES IT HAVE FOR TAKING THAT LONG TO LOAD? SKYRIM AND JUST CAUSE 2 LOAD IN LIKE 3 SECONDS!!!!!!! Seriously, it can take like 5 minutes to load, which is fucking abhorrent. I haven't had a game take that long to load since the PS1!
Anyway, that's me. What do you think of these games? What are you playing yourself? Let me know you beautiful tropical fish!
