Gamefly Update…
So Strangehold took about 4 days to get to me, and another 5 days for it to be marked as Returned. Then NBA Homecourt took 7 days to get to me. I'm returning it today, how long will it take this time?
Stranglehold…
My first game from gamefly redux and it’s a stinker. Boring and redundant, Stanglehold offers nothing new to the genre or my gaming experience. I didn’t even finish the game, not even the benefits of easy achievement points was enough to lure me into playing this game more than 2 levels. Don’t even bother renting this turd-a-roo.

Gamefly…
Gamefly recently opened up a distribution warehouse in Pittsburgh. So in theory this should me faster turn around time on shipping. As such I'm giving it a second chance. We'll see the experience this time is better.
Mass Effect…
Beaten. That game was fucking bad ass. Easily one of the best and most addicting games I've ever played. I can't wait for the sequel.
Assassin’s Creed…
So I just beat the game, literally 5 minutes ago…and…What a crock of fucking shit! I don’t even know how many hours I put in to that game, but talk about a fucking rip off. Ass. Creed is the ultimate summer blockbuster special effects bonanza; all glitz and glamor with no substance. Graphics are amazing. Free running is pretty bad ass. The rest of the fucking game is “been there, done that” material, shit we have seen a million times in other places.
But the absolute worst part about the game is the ending. Or rather lack there of. You get no answers; everything is to be told in the sequel, something I'm sure as shit won’t be buying. Fuck you Ubisoft!
Go to a store that has a demo of it so that you can see the graphics and experience the free running. Then go to wikipedia and read the story outline and save yourself 10 hrs. That's my plan for the sequel.
