Weekend Update

My original plans of staying home all weekend and playing games fell by the wayside. I was pleasantly surprised by my girlfriend coming to visit me for the weekend. Combined with the Pittsburgh Penguins playing Games 2 and 3 of their playoff series against the Ottawa Senators Friday and Sunday, I didn't have much time for video games. I did manage to squeeze in about an hour Sunday night after the hockey game was over, enough time to finish up Final Fantasy XIII. As much as I enjoyed the middle part of the game, the final chapters are just tedious and boring. I do plan on having a spoilerific post to discuss the story sometime this week, so keep an eye out for that.

In the meantime, thanks to two Penguins victories, I really want to get my hands on NHL 10. Still, I might have to be the responsible adult and play some of the games I already own...stupid rent.

Actually, I have an extra copy of Madden NFL 10 lying around still in its shrink wrap. It's on Best Buy's list of games to trade in for $30.

Uh-oh...
