I’ll be making a final push to complete the marathon that is Dragon Age II – watch out for my review on Tuesday. I’ve also got a hankering to get in some Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood multiplayer time. In a complete change of pace from my usual video gaming routine, on Human Rights Day I’ll be riding a Segway around the Lion Park (yes, you can do that).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The herbivore enclosure only though… I’m interested to see why there is so much fuss about this ‘outside’ and ‘sunshine’ phenomenon. There better be some good side quests and loot.

I’m going to sort through my Xbox LIVE Arcade games, and finish up any of those I’ve not yet completed (which is most of them). I just can’t quite seem to justify buying Torchlight until I’ve finished DeathSpank. That’s the grand plan, anyway. Meanwhile, back in reality, I’ll probably just buy Torchlight, and never finish it.<\/p>\n

This long weekend has much gaming goodness in store for me. I’ll be hitting some destructive madness in Motorstorm Apocalypse  which is proving to be fairly good so far (look out for the review soon) and I’ll be following that up with what will no doubt be a single play-through of Homefront if current rumours are to be believed. (Again, watch this space for the forthcoming review.)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’ve also finally snagged myself a copy of Killzone 3 which I’ve been less than thrilled with thus far, though I always find it therapeutic doing some mindless, storyless killing after a long day.

I’ve managed to finish off Dawn of War: Retribution’s Chaos Marine single player campaign this week, which took just under 10 hours. If the other four campaigns are as long, then we’re looking as some fantastic longevity, and that’s not even taking into account the multiplayer stuff. I got started on the Eldar campaign last night, and will be looking to play through it and the other races before penning my review.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’m also busy playing Top Spin 4 on Xbox 360, and am so far well impressed with the latest iteration of Take-Two’s tennis franchise.<\/p>\n
