2.5 hours of sleep. I am now keeping myself awake and non-homicidal via the "create and do lots of stuff to establish momentum" Like this post, in which I shall talk about what I've been doing to try and get some mental downtime lately. Specifically video games.
Since we traded up to the X-box 360, there's been just a few new titles I've been playing:
Like Bioshock. (Yeah, I know, I'm severely late to the party on a LOT of titles at this point) Already completed the game in easy mode, and I'm definitely going back in for a replay of it. That, and I'm just plain going to have to get my hands on the sequels as well.

Then, of course, there's my ever-favored franchise, with it's latest installment, Final Fantasy XIII. I am once more hooked- beautiful graphics, decent storytelling, and this time around, I don't actively have a hate-on for any of the characters (which is a bit unusual for me). Anyways, I'm now into the third and final disc of the game, and still definitely hooked into the storyline- can't wait for the finale of this installment and the upcoming sequel.
And of course, since it's an Xbox, there's Halo. More specifically Halo 3 and Halo: Reach. Beaten the both of them now, and I'd love to do some multiplayer on either, had I more friends on Xbox Live who were into such a thing. And I'm going to have to go back through the main campaign on 3 again, just to grab the achievements I missed by playing it on easy mode (yes, Xbox devs, you did your job right- they're utterly useless, but those achievement scores are like crack- must earn more! For no reason whatsoever!)
Beyond that, I've got some titles on disc I haven't even tried yet, and I've been exploring a bit of DLC, in the form of Portal: Still Alive (yep! Late to the party again!) and Dungeons & Dragons: Daggerdale.
Daggerdale's been the only HUGE disappointment so far- it's fun hacking & slashing... when it works right. the last time I attempted to play it, it took three attempts to even find my saved character, and then errored out half an hour into play. I could only hope that the multiplayer's less buggy, but again, haven't had the opportunity to try it yet.
SO, that's about that- any recommendations, folks? Stuff I should go check out or try?
