Giant Bugs, Oh Noes!

Finally got around to finishing Earth Defense Force 2017 on Normal, I've had it beaten on Easy for a while now. Since I finished Fallout 3 I'm going to go through the games I have and start playing thought them more. I don't really have the funds to get anything new right now, being between jobs kinda sucks, so I figure my back catalog is the best.

I am, however, thinking about treating myself to Scrabble as soon as I can. I've been playing the trial version for a while now and, despite the time limit, have enjoyed it quite a bit. Ironicly, Board games as video games are a ton of fun. I have a buddy who has both Scene It! games, Box Office Smash is the one we play, and recently got Trivial Pursuit, which is a hell of a lot of fun especially in Facts and Friends mode. No set up or clean up for the games, and the fact you can't lose any pieces, makes the video games versions great.

While going through my collection I got to thinking about picking up DOAX2 again. I got the game cheap with the intent of doing what few people have, I want to legitimately get 1000/1000 in the game. I already have an okay start, I have collections for Kasumi, Lisa, and Lei Fang with Kasumi having a larger number of Lisa and Lei Fang's suits. I'm thinking I should get back into it and at least get the collections for each individual girl, that would make for more than 60/1000 for this title and bring my ratio up at least.

And that's another thing I'm looking to get done, I want to get my ratio to at least 50%, already have a good start at 43% but I think 50% would be much better. I could also go crazy and try for 75% but I think that the number of XBLA games I have on my card, and the fact some of them are the more difficult ones to get achivements in, will keep me from getting that for a bit. As I found out tonight, I kinda suck at Astropop and Zuma. I still like the games I'm just a bit bad at them, makes getting 200/200 on those games a bit harder. Just gotta work harder and get better, I guess.
