So a bit late to the party, but got Battlefield 3 the other day. Epic! Having spent most of the mid-2000s playing Battlefield Vietnam and BF2, and more recently BC:2 it's great to be back exploderising and shooting stuff on moosive maps. Hilarious to watch the carnage when you get added destruction with jet noobs crashing into buildings next to you, too much fun!

that would explain a lot....but still when you haven't played for over a year and you log back in to find that you raise a few eyebrows.

Amazon emailed me this morning to let me know that my copy of Borderlands 2 would be late. Early this afternoon they said I could expect it next Wednesday. Later this afternoon I walked into Tesco to see it on sale, for nearly £2 cheaper than I paid through Amazon, with all the pre-order bonus content. Shit.

No World of Warcraft, adding pandas won't miraculously turn you into a good game. Nice try, though.
