Myself and KZ3 have kissed and made up and I'm tackling elite again (solo this time). It's easier than KZ2 and I'm up to chapter six without too much fuss. There was a smattering of choke points that had me grinding my teeth for a while but the controller has yet to be fired at the wall.

In fact the only truly frustrating part is having to rely on that fat fcuk Rico and his wildly fluctuating interpretation of the proximity needed to heal my downed ass. Sometimes he'll run across the level urging me to hold on but just as often stand above me mourning the fact that he can't get to me.

It doesn't help that his character is easily the worst in the game. I've had to sit through that “Gentlemen, it's been an honour” line three or four times now and it still makes me wince. 

I seem to be bouncing through games at the moment. I can't stick to anything. 

I'm a bit off with KZ3 right now after not getting my trophy for beating it on elite (co-op doesn't count apparently) and Two Worlds 2 hasn't been the huge improvement on the first I was hoping for so I'm not giving it too much time. And I'm still picking away at some PSN titles, Shatter being the most recent.

One solid thing I did do today was go back and play through the Enslaved DLC 'Pigsie's Perfect 10'. Decent length, fun story and it plays very differently to the main game so it doesn't just feel like a re-hash. Hammered home the need for Enslaved 2 (We should be so lucky).

One thing I ave been dedicating a lot of time to is Dawn of War II on the PC. I'm an RTS nut and a big fan of the 40K universe as well. The game is awesome and it's always nice to take a break from trophies.

I don't bother using any of the ones I have (all from PS+) as I'm quite loyal to my Ratchet and Clank avatar. But I do think the broadening range is great. I particularly like the Dead Nation set.

I think it's fair to say the original lot we got were pretty poor and people tended to gravitate towards the same ones. 

I'd love to see games giving more unlockable avatars. The trophy picture for getting the plat in a game would be cool. 

Finished Killzone 3 on elite in co-op yesterday and got no poxing trophy for it! Apparently it's the only campaign related trophy that has to be done in single player. I can't understand why they would do that! It's like they don't really want you to play co-op!! 

Bought the DLC for Black Ops and Dead Space 2.

Then remembered both my copies are American.

'Broderskapets Ring' from the album Stormblåst by Dimmu Borgir.

The original 1996 recording, back when these guys sounded like they meant something and before they turned into a complete joke. 

It's been a while since anyone mentioned this GRINDfest but I've been steadily(ish) chipping away at it so if anyone is still interested in boosting some XP (either create or racing) then give me a shout here or on PSN.
