Aside from the cortana level, personally i think 3 is the best. Its got a great story, great setpieces and again aside from cortana, some great levels.

3>Reach>ODST>CE>2

Still playing FarCry 2, which is superb, however I decided to download Chrono Trigger onto my android phone to play during lunch breaks. Not played it before but liking it so far.

Half Life: Opposing Force

I've just met these two dudes and turned it off, and i've been told that they're going to be sticking about for a while which I suppose is good. Always nice to have company when everyone else thinks you're there to murder them or have left you.

I love in opposing force when you encounter things that you saw in Half-Life but from the military perspective.

So far, I might actually be enjoying it more than Half Life. At least finding it funnier anyway. This,this, and this in particular!

Things seem to be happening a lot quicker in this too, like the guy who gives the warning in Half Life about your last missile targets (This bit) I saw in Chapter 3 or so in Opposing Force. I got a screenshot of that too, but it's hardly worth showing.

Just a quick heads up Joer, you might know this, but steam has a built in screenshot capture and hosting function you know? Like here's my gallery:

It's all set up in the in game tab of steam settings.

Playing original Mass Effect. Sooo good. Although I am regretting letting the Rachni free after finding a side-quest where the Rachni were just strawberry floating gooseberry fool up.

Really enjoying Crysis on 360 now. Just started the 3rd level. Making a LOT of use of the stealth suit, so much so that I'm probably going to miss it when playing other shooters now.

Also made some more progress with The Dark Brotherhood in Skyrim. I've not touched quests in a few of the major cities yet, and I'm starting to wonder if I'm cutting any future quests off by killing these targets for the guild. One of the first side contracts was definitely someone involved in a previous misc mission I'd done earlier.

Had a cracking session online with KOFXIII last night.. Trying out a new team made up of Andy, Robert and Mature. Even though I lost overall they worked out quite well and soon started to gel.

Will perhaps try another mix this evening.

Totally don't get the hate for Halo 2. Sure, the single player was a bit wank but the multiplayer was second to none.

Yeah, all those screenshots are from a quick F12, but cheers for the heads up anyway!

I think his point was you can link to them directly from your Steam profile.

Steam's so sluggish when it comes to my screenshot library though, that's why I linked them from that tumblr account.

also the compression on steam screenshots is pretty awful (if you care about that kind of thing)

I think it'll be ok for screenshots of Hali-Life

The Binding of Isaac is pretty amazing, can't get enough of it. Surprised at how easy it was after playing Super Meat Boy but the later levels are definitely a challenge and I'm struggling to beat Mom!

I didn't have Xbox Live back then, or even internet where I stayed. I imagine a lot of Xbox owners weren't on Live either - the high uptake has really only came about since the 360.
