She's Got Game

Thats right!  I finally got the new Xbox 360 Slim!  It is actually my first Xbox (I have been playing on my boyfriend's for a while now) so I am so stoked about having it!

I actually got it yesterday, but I played it all day so I could not really make a post about it ;).  I used to be more of a PC gamer, but since my PC is half crashed, I have been mooching on my boyfriend's Xbox... and became completely obsessed with it.

Anyways, I am so happy with it!  So much space on the harddrive, even the controller is a little different than the regular black Elite ones.  The headset is also completely black (instead of gray and black) and comes with a rather pointless clip.

Before getting the Xbox, I stopped by Gamestop for their super saver sale (go figure, since I work at Best Buy ><) and got a few old games to play.

For anyone who is interested, this is my current game collection now!
Battlefield: Bad Company 2
Final Fantasy XIII (I think that's the right one... whatever the newest one is.)
Bioshock 2
Dragon Age: Origins
Lost Odyssey (lots of fun for an older one!)
Gears of War
Sega Superstars Tennis
Forza 2
Limbo
Deathspank

So considering that is rather measly... help me out!  What game should I buy next? 

Why do some of us love the delicious plinking sound of 'Achievement Unlocked'? What is it about that magical sound that drives us to collect unending numbers of skulls, lunchboxes or small children all in the name of conquering cleverly named quests while threatened with the prospect of dying badly in the process?

So, I am completely obsessed with Battlefield: Bad Company 2. 

A lot of people get annoyed with the laggy servers and the developers, but to me... the concept alone of BF:BC2 completely overrides all of this.

I have played Final Fantasy XIII for a few hours now... so while I haven't finished it (I'll make another post whenever I do), I wanted to let you know how it was going so far!

So I think that everyone who plays games are familiar with "episodes." If not, it's essentially an addition to the game, usually you have the main game, then some sequels that are then called episodes.  They're usually shorter and not really a full game, and keep with the story of the original game. For example, the Half Life 2 series has a couple of episodes, and Fable II came out with episodes as well.  But what if an entire game came out in episodes?  Well that's what Fable III is planning on doing.

I like to hang out on some forums, and I saw a post about a quadriplegic gamer who is looking to get custom controller mapping for video games.  Basically what that means is that the gamer has the option to customize what each button did on the controller for his/her games (like instead of fire being right trigger, making it the A button).

Well If you are one of those people who love to have the power to control others lives, then the Sims 3  is the game for you.
