Not enough time to do my Time Warped blog because I was too busy gaming today. I got another silver slim PS2 to play some retro stuff that I'll mention in a later blog. Then I played more retro stuff on XBO that I'll also mention later. Finally I can quickly mention the other 3 games. 

Call of Duty Black Ops. I finished the campaign and played some zombie mode and a little bit of multiplayer. What a great game by Treyarch whom I used to follow when they made Call of Duty Big Red One and COD World at War. I'm a fan of the Black Ops series now and will play 2 and 3 at some later time. 

Marlo Briggs and the Mask of Death. Played this God of War clone to a point near the end, I think, but got so frustrated that they took away my awesome chain weapon for a clumbsy slow battle axe, that I ended up rage quiting. I really hated the platforming stuff in the game too; although, objectively, they were well done, just not my thing. 

Agents of Mayhem. I bought this from Gamefly for $7 after their $5 coupon. I picked up where I left off when I played it last summer. I had no choice. It wouldn't let me erase my save and start over. Just as well, I guess. It took some time to remember the controls and special abilities of my agents. The game is fun. The cut scenes are in animated form like a Venture Bros. cartoon. I quite like the humor. Very silly like the Saints Row games. It's by the same developers. It doesn't play quite as perfectly smooth as Crackdown did, but it's very close. I'm still getting used to the game and how to do things well. I've gotten my butt kicked a few times because I'd forgotten how to do specials with my various agents. I can't wait to unlock more agents and try out their abilities and hear their zany voice work.
