The long and the short of it is, the Thomp has permanently departed the hot, arid Phoenix heat, and will hereby be delivering opinions on gaming via a new home in Kirkland, WA, outside of Seattle. It feels good to be back up North, with the water, the cool air, the cloud cover... all perfect ingredients to get in the mood for gaming!
That said, while I've been away, I've still managed to reserve some time to play. In fact, I've finished quite a few games since last posting, and look forward to writing some thoughts about them soon.
Until then, here's a quick look at what I've been playing.
The Last of Us
Status: Finished. Review coming soon.
This game was really quite an experience. Some of the most compelling character development I've seen in a game. Expect to see a review of this soon.
Metro: Last Light
Status: Finished. Review coming soon.
Another dark, intense, story driven FPS from the team that brought us Metro 2033. I thoroughly enjoyed this game, perhaps even more than it's predecessor. Expect a review soon.
The Walking Dead: 400 Days
Status: Finished. Review coming soon.
Season 2 of Telltale's The Walking Dead will take place 400 days after the end of Season 1. This special transition episode is here to give us an idea of the happenings during this time, from the eyes of 5 separate protagonists. Expect a review soon.
Saint's Row: The Third
Status: Finished. Review coming soon.
In preparation for Saints Row 4, I decided I would give the highly acclaimed "Third" a try. Turns out it is insanely fun, and insanely ridiculous. Expect a full review soon.
Rogue Legacy
Status: Reallllly close to finished. Damn you last boss!
This game has damn near taken over my life since it came out. Super fun and super addicting. Looking forward to talking more about this game!
League of Legends
Status: It never ennnnnnds!
I'm ashamed to really say anything right here. Yes, I've been playing this game. Yes, I've been playing it a lot. Let's leave it at that for now.
Grand Theft Auto V
Status: Not started. Ready and raring for midnight release!
Super-duper stoked for this. There are 27 hours and counting until the release as I write this. This one looks bigger and better than ever with tons of new features and THREE main protagonists! Review will come eventually.
There have, of course, been other games I've been playing on and off, but none enough to mention here really. I've got a bit of catching up to do with these, but am happy to be back on the horse again.
Until next time, Thomp out!
