Ha! I bet you all thought I was gone for good, huh? Well, I'm not. I've just been busy with stupid crap. Among that stupid crap though, I was able to squeeze in some Gaming time. Here's what I've been playing.

That's Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate. You know, Fighting, Girls, Ninjas, the usual stuff. Clearly not the most popular fighting game franchise in the world, but it's up there. I've already cleared the highest difficulty, so now I mostly play online against friends or whatever player has the unfortunate luck to cross my path. Did I mention that I'm good at this game? Heh.

Dead Island Riptide is the sequel to Dead Island. While the gameplay HAS been improved since the first game, it hasn't been improved much. Still, it's good enough to warrant a playthrough. Definitely an average game, yet I find myself having fun playing it. Then again, who could complain about slaying virtual zombies?

Two Worlds II is the very definition of average...It's Single Player mode anyway. The Multiplayer is where it really shines...in a sense. There is no System Link or Couch Co-Op here, unfortunately. The Multiplayer is Online Only, playing very much like an MMORPG, which may turn some people away. Still, it's Multiplayer can be quite fun, but it IS a chore to play sometimes.

Well, that's it for now. See you all next entry.

I was wondering about Riptide.  While I didn't initially, once I had settled into the combat system I managed to enjoy the first Dead Island enough to warrant the money I spent on it (like $10 USD).  Your description of Riptide is exactly (more of less) what I got from the first game, so I think I'll pick it next Steam sale.  Thanks, Redd.
