Didn't sculpt today, but me and Scottie tried out playing Borderlands which was a lot of fun! It's nice to have a good multi-player game! We're always on the lookout for one, it's hard to find now because so many are online multi-player. So in order to make that work we'd need a second console and a second tv, which would just be ridiculous. I mean it would be nice to have all that screen to yourself if I had unlimited money and space, but since that's not the case I just want a multi-player game that I can play with someone in the same room. xP
Anyway, Borderlands is way different than I thought it would be. It's like arcade style Fallout, and since I love Fallout that's a good thing. It also reminds me of Bioshock which I also love! 2K is involved in Borderlands, and they were also involved in Bioshock so similarities aren't terribly surprising. The art style reminds us of Valkyria Chronicles, just a little more graphic novel than watercolour painting.

In other news, Scottie saw on twitter that 2000 people in town still don't have power. That's really rough! I would have hoped that by now that they would have been able to get everything fixed! I'm just glad that this didn't happen during the winter.

Heh, we definitely don't have unlimited space and money... but my husband and I each have our own tv and PS3. We're pretty big on gaming. We have our tv's side by side on a little desk and the PS3's on a bookcase next to it. It makes co-op pretty awesome. It also makes it so we don't have to take turns with one PS3 when we want to play solo (we don't share well :P).

I really enjoyed Borderlands, I especially had a blast with the Zombie Island and Mad Moxxi's Underdome add-on content. I can't wait for Borderlands 2.

That's cool! There's certainly nothing wrong with doing it that way, we've just never been able to rationalize the cost and I don't know where we'd put another tv. n_n'
We're really big into gaming too! We like to say that a couple that games together stays together. xD (Apparently from what we've heard unless you're playing the New Super Mario Bros for the Wii together lol).

We just got Borderlands through PSN as the free game of the month, and we got all the add-ons half off last night. They were still downloading before we went to bed, but I'm pretty excited to try them out today! :3

My partner and I love Borderlands. We have the game but no PS3 atm to play it on. We bought it when we were living with my parents who have the console.
We have played through about 3 times now, trying out different characters or different builds on the same characters. Hopefully we can get a PS3 before Borderlands 2 comes out.
